The third generation of the GALAXY Tab Series has arrived and it's looking good! First, Let's talk design. One thing I have noticed is that there are a lot of similarities to the Samsung manufactured Nexus 10, and if you look back at devices like the original GALAXY Tab, The tab 2 and the note 10.1, you will notice quite an improvement which sadly - wink wink - canno't be said to the iPhone/iPad latest models which decided to stick to the same good'ol design.

Did you miss Google I/O keynote from yesterday? Since Google decided not to do a day 2 keynote, they packed everything into day 1, From Google+ to Chrome to Android and even Google Maps. The entire thing ended with a Q&A session with Larry Page which was a highlight for me.... I must say though, it was long…really long.

Despite being such an “open” mobile operating system, all Android phones in the market today come with a few limitations. These are actually safety mechanisms put in place for more security and to ensure that (inexperienced) users don’t mess up their devices. For enthusiasts, though, these safety mechanisms are limitations. Limitations that limit how they get to use a device they own, rooting is how users can lift these limitations and use the device the way they want to and not how the manufacturer wants them to.

Folks at Samsung are preparing what I'd like to call the smartphone of the year. Following their yearly upgrade cycle we’re expecting to see the Galaxy Note 3 be revealed sometime in September at IFA 2013, and until today we’ve been getting conflicting reports on the hardware. The leaked image below gives us an idea of what to expect, which is more of the same, only they’ve beefed up the internals again.


By what we’re seeing and hearing it sounds like Samsung will do the same with the Note 3 as they did with the Galaxy S4. Upgrade the screen and internals, but keep the design language the same. We’ve heard a 6.3-inch Note 3 was coming, but the current leaks suggest 5.99-inches will in fact be the final size, The 6.3-inch device is apparently in the making but Samsung will release it under the fresh "Mega" line-up.

Rumors earlier this month “confirmed” Samsung was working on aluminum or premium hardware materials to replace their plastics, but according to the above image that won’t be happening very soon. The device looks like a larger Galaxy Note II. So with that in mind, lets talk about under the plastic design, which are some pretty impressive specs.

As the rumors suggest, Samsung will use a 5.99-inch 1920 x 1080p full HD display, then boost everything else under the hood too. Most importantly Samsung will be adding 3GB of RAM to the Note 3. Yup, 3GB of RAM. The Galaxy Note 3 will run the Exynos 5 Octa 8-core processor clocked at 2.0 GHz on four cores, and 1.2 GHz on the other 4. Sounds like a beast right? 8-core smartphone with 3GB of RAM. That’s just nuts.

For now this hasn’t been confirmed, but given what we’ve seen lately from Samsung this could very well be what they unveil at IFA in a few months time. That’s one massive phone. Would you buy one? with specs like these, I'm going to!

Both the Galaxy S and Galaxy Note are immensely popular among hordes of Android fans, and with the South Korean vendor releasing them at different points during any given year, one only has to wait a couple of months to see a brand new Galaxy handset. With the Galaxy S4 now announced pending release next month, attentions will naturally turn to the larger, so-called “phablet” Galaxy Note III, and according to a report from Korean publication Asiae.co.kr, the device will pack an “unbreakable” display.

If you know me, you know that I was not exactly one of the early adopters of Twitter but I have came to embraced the "Tweeps culture" eventually. Through Twitter, I have made friends across the globe and connected with new people in my own back yard, I was able to share my posts and drive a crazy number of traffic to my blogs. It has made my world a bit smaller and whole lot better.

Samsung has announced its worst kept secret, but nonetheless exciting Galaxy S4. Revealed at tonight's Unpacked event in New York City, the Galaxy S4 will take the mantle of the Galaxy S III as Samsung's new flagship smartphone, sporting a massive 5-inch 1080p Super AMOLED display with a pixel density of 441ppi — a significant leap over the Galaxy S III's 306ppi display and the iPhone 5's 326ppi retina display. While similar to last year's model, the design has undergone some notable upgrades, including a thinner bezel around the new display and sleek metal trim around the sides.

#1 : Samsung Galaxy S4


The Samsung Galaxy S3 was arguably the biggest Android phone release to date, so it's hardly surprising that the inevitable S4 is leading the pack as one of the most anticipated phones of 2013. While details on the device remain strictly in rumor mill territory, the best guesses include a 5-inch 1080p HD display, a 13-megapixel camera, and integrated support for Visa wireless payments. But one thing we know for sure: we'll be getting all of the relevant details on March 14 at Manhattan's Radio City Music Hall.

Over the last few years, “phablets”, the new product category defining devices that are too large to be considered smartphones but still too small to be considered tablets, has become increasingly popular. One of the most popular players in the field, Samsung, is said to be readying the release of the Galaxy Note III, which is expected to sport a 5.9-inch screen opposed to a 6.3-inch one as previously reported, according to a Korean newspaper.
