Sony’s Xperia Z took the company into the big leagues this year: the company finally has a handset that turns heads and can compete with the established Galaxy and One brands. The Z and its plainer ZL variant weren’t the only bullets in the Xperia revolver for 2013, though. . . . → Read More: Sony Xperia SP review: lights, camera, performance At the beginning of last week, we learned of a Huawei smartphone, model number P6-U06 , by way of the TENAA in China (their FCC equivalent). In addition to some pictures of the handset and a few internal components listed by the TENAA, its thickness, or rather, its thinness was the most interesting spec — at 6.18mm, it could be the super-slim P series model a Huawei exec has been teasing all year . . . → Read More: Huawei P6-U06 super slim smartphone poses for more leaked pictures, this time in black Ever since its launch, Windows Phone has faced criticism for lacking a broad app selection compared with its main mobile OS competitors. Microsoft is out to convince users otherwise, and in a rather cheeky move, has launched the Switch to Windows Phone app for Android . . . → Read More: Microsoft’s Switch to Windows Phone app for Android attempts to prove you’re not missing out The FCC isn’t the only agency playing with devices we don’t even know exist : its Chinese equivalent has recently had some hands-on time with an unknown Huawei smartphone, codenamed the P6-U06. . . . → Read More: Skinny Huawei smartphone shows off 6.2mm profile in Chinese certification Huawei kicked off the year by introducing its 5-inch Ascend D2 and 6.1-inch Ascend Mate flagships, and after a few months of catering for smaller hands , it’s revisiting larger screens with the A199. The new handset shares a handful of specs with the Ascend D2, and although it’s not as equipped, you wouldn’t call it a low-end device. . . . → Read More: Huawei A199 outed with 5-inch 720p display, 1.5GHz CPU, 2GB RAM Huawei kicked off the year by introducing its 5-inch Ascend D2 and 6.1-inch Ascend Mate flagships, and after a few months of catering for smaller hands , it’s revisiting larger screens with the A199. The new handset shares a handful of specs with the Ascend D2, and although it’s not as equipped, you wouldn’t call it a low-end device. Behind the 5-inch, 720p IPS display, you’ll find Huawei’s own quad-core 1.5GHz K3V2 CPU paired with 2GB of RAM and eight gigs of internal storage, expandable via a microSD slot (up to 32GB cards supported). . . . → Read More: Huawei A199 outed with 5-inch 720p display, 1.5GHz CPU, 2GB RAM Did Google’s Larry Page get on the wrong side of Zuckerberg when he was less than complimentary about Facebook a couple of months ago? Maybe so, as the latest update to the social network’s app for Android appears to be ignoring the normal route of outing a new version through the Play store, using the app itself to push the update to users.

Last week saw the camera and gallery apps from the latest iteration of Google’s OS ported to the Nexus , and this week, Twitter user @KillDroidHack has done the honors of releasing another cluster. All Android 4.2 core apps — such as Gmail, Maps, Calendar and the like — are now available in APK form, as well as the newest version of Google Wallet . . . → Read More: Android 4.2 core apps and Google Wallet APKs released for pimping your Galaxy Nexus |
