With the first iOS 8.3 and OS X 10.10.3 betas that arrived a couple of weeks back, we learned that the emoji system would be getting a revamp, and now, things are beginning to take shape.

The Samsung Galaxy S6 is almost here. Set to be announced at the confirmed Unpacked event in advance of the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, it'll be quite a departure from its predecessors in terms of profile and form factor. As is often the case with Samsung, the promotion has begun way ahead of launch, and the latest sneak peek from the Korean company offers yet another look at the sleek outer shell that will envelop the device.
We're edging ever closer to Samsung's big Unpacked event, which will precede Barcelona's Mobile World Congress in just over a week, and the main talking point will be, of course, the Galaxy S6. Accompanied by the Galaxy S6 Edge - in-keeping with the Note 4's Edgy sidekick when the company dropped its latest phablet back in the fall - it appears that the company has gone all-out to impress fans of high-end specs and top-tier designs, and although it's too early to cast aspersions, it does seem as though the Tizen maker has really upped its game this time around. As anticipation reaches fever pitch, we have yet another beautiful concept video for you to drool over, and since it's based upon leaks that have continued to pour out over the past few months, it's as accurate as it is dazzling.

Apple Pay is plodding along rather nicely following its roll-out alongside the iOS 8.1 update late last year, and with Apple Watch about to further broaden the horizons of the contactless payment infrastructure, Google is apparently poised to counter with the second-coming of its seemingly forgotten Wallet. The forthcoming I/O developer gathering, which has already been confirmed with the Big G taking registrations from the middle of next month, will play host to this revival of Google Wallet, and with Apple Pay gaining quite a bit of traction, the Android maker knows that it'll need to move quickly in order to keep up.
Thanks to the fanfare that coincided with the launch of the iPhone 6, we already have a pretty good idea as to what to expect from the Apple Watch. Early response has been positive, not only from experts in the watch industry, but from technology enthusiasts as well, and while it's too early to cast aspersions, it does seem as though we're on the cusp of a game-changer
Pebble must be credited with forging the smartwatch market as we know it. What started out as a Kickstarter project turned into something of a phenomenon, and since its initial arrival, many of the bigger names in tech have joined the party. With Android Wear establishing itself and Apple Watch en route to market, Pebble is in grave danger of being crowded out, and as such, a new model is on the horizon. A new teaser has been released, as well as a countdown, and we've got all of the relevant details below.
As mobile consumers, we're always wary of malicious intrusion, and as time progresses, those behind these hacks and exploits are getting even more cunning with their methods. Case in point, a new strain of Android malware that essentially spoofs a device's shut-down process, meaning that while you may think your tablet or handset has been switched off, the intruder is working overtime to make calls, take photos, and generally pry into your sensitive data.
