It has been established that Samsung's Galaxy S4 is an all-singing, all-dancing powerhouse, and considering the Korean company always uses the device as a leaning post for some of its most advanced and up-to-date hardware, we'd expect nothing less. Taking this into account, it should also be of very little surprise that the handset's Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 processor offers the fastest gaming graphics of any smartphone currently available to buy.
With Google's big I/O event just around the corner, rumors are flying as to what will be the main attraction when the Google's top brass take to the stage.

A few years ago, many were amazed at how easily smartphones were able to snap high-quality pictures within seconds. Leaked code from MyGlass companion app suggests that in future, users will be able to snap pictures of the world around them with a simple wink. This comes at the same time as Google chief Eric Schmidt stating that Glass wont be available to general consumers before 2014.
One of the first videos to show a Galaxy S4 to have a knife taken to it shows that Samsung's new smartphone should be able to hold its own in a pocket full of pointy things!

A new strain of Android malware has been discovered by security firm LookOut that has managed to find its way onto millions of devices.

More details about the whole fiasco can be found right after the jump.
Instagram is without a doubt something of a runaway success, and it managed that even before the famous buyout by social network, Facebook. A combination of smart filters and a social aspect, Instagram had us all taking arty photos of our food, cats and just about anything else. We love Instagram, and judging by our feeds, you probably do too.
In a day and age where we all use our smartphones as the camera that is always with us, we're all collecting hundreds of megabytes of photos that will eventually need to be taken off those devices and put onto something a little less likely to get lost, like a computer.
The GO Launcher for Android is among the most popular in the business. With a plethora of features, settings and accompanying apps available over at the Google Play Store, it's ranked alongside Apex Launcher as one of the very best of its kind.

Details, as well as that all-important download link, can be found after the break!
An incremental point update has been made to the official Google Play Store app, bringing us up to version 4.0.26. It follows on from last week's altogether more significant release of Google Play Store 4.0.25 APK, which brought a bunch of new features including a Card UI. According to some users, there were bugs with that new interface as well as a couple of other niggling issues with the release, and thus here we are no less than a week later with this housekeeping update.
