The National Broadcasting and Telecommunications Commission of Thailand has just approved two previously unheard iPhone models for sale in the country. Devices A1524 and A1286 were today given the go-ahead to retail in Thailand by the nation's version of the U.S. FCC, and although it doesn't tell us anything about the devices in question, it does lead us to believe that a 4.7- and 5.5-inch iPhone 6 is imminent.
With Gamescom ongoing, Sony is showing off some of the games that will be coming to the PlayStation 4 in the coming months. Even with all the big name titles flying around though, Sony CEO Jim Ryan found time to give gamers a little sneak peak at what they will be able to play with as part of the PS4's fall update.
Last year's announcement and subsequent release of the iPhone 5s brought quite a few surprises along with it. Sure, we suspected long before the September showcasing that it would include a fingerprint sensor, gold color configuration and several other such treats, but even though we anticipated the customary processor bump, the 64-bit architecture of the Apple A7 caught everybody off-guard. It was a first in the smartphone industry, and while we expect the iPhone 6 to follow suit sometime next month, it also won't be too long before Android L releases adopt 64-bit SoCs as standard.
As well as the Samsung Galaxy Note 4, which the Korean company is expected to unveil on September 3rd, smartphone fans will also be keeping their eyes out for the Apple iPhone 6. Apparently slated for a September 9th showcasing, the handset has been conceptualized ad nauseam since we first learned of its purported form factor many moons ago, and with the launch event now imminent, one of our favorite designers has tried his hand at presenting us with a visual of the device in its retail packaging. If you've guessed who we're talking about, then you'll probably know of his high standards in concept design, and if you want to see what the iPhone 6 may look like mid-unboxing, join us after the break.
Facebook has once again updated its official iOS app, taking it to version 13.1.

For the longest time, there's been talk of a so-called Galaxy Alpha from Samsung, which, among other perks, would finally give fans of premium design reason to take note. In recent weeks, leaks have pointed to a handset with a metallic, chamfered edge, which, while not as high-end as the HTC One or the iPhone, would signify a step up from the wholly polycarbonate finish that consumers have become accustomed to. Now, finally, the Korean outfit has officially taken the wraps off the Galaxy Alpha, and below, we mull over the design and specs.

Today in Germany, Microsoft had a lot to say about its all-in-one entertainment (not so much just gaming) console, the Xbox One, whereby the company announced a number of upcoming features for the platform, including software updates and patches, exclusive games and perhaps most importantly, three new bundles, each with its unique set of offerings. The bundles include a FIFA 15 one, another with Sunset Overdrive accompanied by a nice surprise, and finally, a Call of Duty version featuring a larger hard drive.
Thanks to the likes of Google Play Music, accessing the content of our favorite artists and bands is now much easier than ever. Although many of us now utilize services like Spotify in order to stream music, the art of buying a song we happen to like is not completely obsolete, and in the case of Google Play Music's new freebie offer, you don't always have to stump up any money. For a presumably limited time, you can pick up full songs from artists like Katy Perry and Daft Punk completely free, and given that we don't know how long the offer's going to last, you'll want to get in quickly to avoid disappointment.
