Samsung Galaxy S III vs. rival flagships: iPhone 4S, HTC One X, Lumia 900

Oh yes, it’s a good time to go shopping for a smartphone, particularly if you’ve acquired a taste for an abundance of pixels and silicon cores. But which phones ought to be considered flagships worthy of comparison with the shiny new GS III? Yes, we’re including the Lumia 900 in this context, for the sake of platform neutrality and also in recognition of the fact that raw specs don’t count for everything — but we can’t overlook that this handset is sorely lacking in terms of ppi and some other areas.

Under the microscope: Samsung Galaxy S III’s HD Super AMOLED display

By now you should already know that the brand-spanking-new Samsung Galaxy S III sports a 4.8-inch HD Super AMOLED display. That’s right: no “plus” here, which means this 720p panel is featuring the same old PenTile RBGB pixel arrangement — just like the 4.65-inch version on the Galaxy Nexus and the Galaxy S II HD LTE.

Major League Gaming takes smartphone games seriously, announces Xperia Mobile Gaming Arena

If OpenFeint’s lightweight social connections and leaderboards lack the competitive edge your inner hardcore gamer craves, maybe Major League Gaming’s latest mouthful will satiate your demands for satisfaction. The Xperia Mobile Gaming Arena presented by Sony Mobile (we told you it was a mouthful) hopes to give smartphone toting gamers a serious cross-platform battleground, offering iOS and Android users competitive leaderboards and up to $10,000 in prizes. Currently the smartphone gaming platform only supports Gameloft’s Modern Combat 3: Fallen Nation , but MLG hopes to enlist more competitive titles in the coming months.

GameKeyboard 2.0 requires root, maps Xperia Play gamepad to all Android games (video)

Upon its debut, the Xperia Play suffered from a lack of game titles that were compatible with its unique built-in gamepad.

Wonder no longer, because that’s exactly what GameKeyboard 2.0 brings to the table

HTC pats itself on the back for the One X’s battery life, has plenty of help

If you’re a smartphone fan (of course you are, if you’re not then you’re almost certainly in the wrong place, can we ask how you even got here?) then you’ve almost certainly been bitten by the bug of a battery that just doesn’t last long enough, the normal side effect of a data hungry lifestyle. HTC says it feels your pain however, and thinks it’s done quite a bit to lick the issue with its latest flagship phone, the HTC One X . In reports consistent with our experience with the dual-core AT&T iteration , a blog post on the company’s site notes several others that have tested it out and come away impressed with the battery life it shows.
