On the first week of September, with the IFA tech gathering looming, Samsung usually showcases the latest addition to its phablet 'Note' series, and although we've heard several reports with regards to the Galaxy Note 4, it's now certain that Samsung Unpacked will be held on September 3rd. The Korean outfit just passed out invitations to the special event, and although it cannot be confirmed that we'll be seeing the Note 4, the timing leads us to believe that this will, in fact, be the case.
Given how many apps and games exist over at the iTunes App Store, locating the good ones shouldn't be too hard. But at times, it can be a little tricky, and finding the decent, paid apps gone free even more so.

Even though Samsung has successfully competed alongside the Apple iPhone over the past few years in the battle of the high-end smartphones, there are definitely strengths and weaknesses on both sides. For while critics of Apple have pointed out the lack of display real-estate, NFC and other such features, the Samsung Galaxy line-up has not yet offered fans of premium, metallic build anything to write home about. The Korean outfit looked on as the likes of HTC and compatriot LG began churning out these more substantially-crafted devices, but according to a new leak, the supposed "Galaxy Alpha" may include chamfered metal edges akin to the Apple iPhone.
After a handful of Developer Previews, Apple recently unleashed the first Beta of OS X 10.10 Yosemite. In a change from the usual schedule, though, the beta was open to the general public, allowing anybody with an Apple ID to indulge, and as we close in on that eventual end user release scheduled for the fall, the Cupertino tech giant has just rolled out the 5th Developer Preview of Yosemite. Details, as ever, can be seen after the leap.
Apple has just released download links of iOS 8 beta 5 for supported iPhone, iPad and iPod touch devices over on the iOS Dev Center.
The owners and developers behind the popular XBMC software have announced a name change that will see the software rebranded as 'Kodi'. The name change has been a long time coming in fairness, with the outgoing title suggesting to users that the powerful software is capable of being installed and invoked on Microsoft's Xbox gaming consoles. That may have been true once upon a time, but XBMC hasn't been capable of running on an Xbox since the original hardware release, with no compatibility being offered with Microsoft's 360 or One offerings. The rebrand will see the software welcome in its third name change in the last 12 years and should also provide some much-needed clarity on the Xbox compatibility issues.
Being the source of most iPhone 6 hardware leaks, there's a very good case to be made for Chins being the best place to pick up a fake iPhone 6 too. Turns out that's exactly true after Apple's next iPhone was once again beaten to market by a knockoff, and one that actually looks pretty good.
The leaks just keep on coming, this time of the supposed iPad Air 2. With all the attention very much on the iPhone 6 at this point, it's easy to forget that we should only be a few months away from a new suite of iPads, with the iPad Air 2 possibly the most eagerly anticipated.
