With the announcement of its next Galaxy S device just around the corner, it's now become official record that Samsung has trumped fierce rival Apple to claim number one spot in terms of smartphone market share.
Those in any way affiliated with the tech industry will know of Microsoft's plans to release Windows 8 to the consumer pretty soon, and from what's been showcased hitherto, most have been impressed. While the latest iteration of the software maker's operating system has many strengths over preceding versions, the Metro user-interface has been the most celebrated by consumers, and although perhaps better suited to the tablet, it's been running nicely on the PCs of those running the Consumer Preview.
While some Android devices are rooted relatively quickly by those in the know within the modding and development community, some smartphones and tablets can take what seems like an age.
A new photograph of what appears to be the unannounced Samsung Galaxy S III has shown up, giving all of us impatiently waiting for Samsung's July announcement in London, something to keep us going for a while.
It has been a day or so since the smartphone loving world was treated to any gossip surrounding Samsung's latest addition to the Galaxy range of devices, the Galaxy S III. The much anticipated device has so far managed to surround itself with growing mystery, leaving Samsung and Android fans chomping at the bit to get their hands on it.
While the announcement for the next Galaxy smartphone - informally referred to as the Galaxy S III - isn't due until May 3rd as we've previously reported, Samsung has already dropped some news regarding the processor that will power the upcoming flagship Android smartphone. By the looks of things, this processor definitely seems to be worth getting your Android-mascot branded mascot in a twist over. It's called the Exynos 4 Quad, is clocked at 1.4GHz, and is based on the ARM Cortex A9 mobile processor. This processor seems to be quite inline with some earlier rumors, apart from the branding; rumors suggested that the upcoming quad-core CPU will sport the Exynos 5 branding.
With little over a week before Samsung finally takes the wraps off the Galaxy S III, the tech world is doing its level best to reveal what the device is going to look like.
The wraps have finally been taken off Google's mythical Google Drive online storage and collaboration service, with the news first being leaked via Google's own French blog. Now though, the app is available to download for anyone with the right hardware, and if the video Google has put out is anything to go by, it's going to be pretty awesome.
It's certainly been a great past week for those who like modding their devices. Two separate rooting methods have allowed boatloads of Samsung and Motorola devices running Gingerbread to be rooted using the same simple methods, and now, those running almost any HTC Android device can unlock their bootloader without jeopardizing that all-important warranty.
No matter how anxious tech fans are becoming in their endeavor to meet Samsung's Galaxy S III, the Korean consumer electronics giant is giving absolutely nothing away. With the official announcement set for ten days' time, Samsung has released a couple of short teaser videos, although anybody looking for some solid information will once again be disappointed.
