Unless your Internet access has been cut off over the last few days, you are likely aware that Samsung showed off its new smartphone, the Galaxy S4, at a high-profile event in New York City. Right across the pond, in the United Kingdom, major retailer Phones4U has revealed that pre-orders of the new Galaxy S4 smartphone have vastly exceeded pre-registrations for previous models, an early sign that Samsung has managed to “woo” customers with its new device, at least in Britain.
The Mail app for iOS offers a simple way for users to manage multiple email accounts with relative ease, but for some, the basic features don't stretch far enough. The jailbreak community operates with the mentality that there's always some room for improvement, and Mail Enhancer Pro, a tweak developed by Stefan Mollenkamp, has long since been seen as the antidote for those pining for a better mail experience. Now, Mollenkamp has just introduced Mail Enhancer Pro iOS 6, and along with all the features we know and love from the previous iteration, additional niceties have also been added to the mix especially for iOS 6.
Handheld gaming consoles are desperately trying to cling onto a market which smartphone and tablet devices are readily muscling away from them, and it’s also quite evident when we consider adoption rates. So how fitting, perhaps, that the first PSP emulator for iOS (jailbroken devices only), BlackBerry, Android, Windows and Linux should be a smooth, impressive experience which, besides a few to-be-expected frame rate issues, is surprisingly well put together. It's named PPSSPP, and as you'll see from the video below, its performance is exceptional for such an early build hardware emulator.
Any regular reader of Redmond Pie will know that we cover a lot of different tweaks for jailbroken devices. Regardless of whether the package is intended for the iPhone, iPod touch, iPad or even all three, if it's useful and could benefit our readers then we'll give it the once over. With that said, it's always great to find and test a tweak that makes us want to keep using it after the review, which is something we think we might have found with the RaiseToCall package.
Ever wanted to run a full screen Windows 8 app in a window? Well, now you can with complete ease. Windows 8 had long been controversial, ever singe it was first shown off last year. As soon as everyone realized that Windows was changing at the core, there has been a steady stream of detractors itching to see it fail. One of the biggest big bears for those that just don't like the new Windows 8 way of doing things is the full-screen application style that mimics that of a mobile device.
HTC's One smartphone device may yet to have been released to market, but already, the folks over at XDA have put together a brilliant all-in-one toolkit for modding enthusiasts to download and enjoy.
The talk of a low-cost iPhone ranks alongside products such as the iWatch and Apple's connected TV effort in years-old rumors are yet to materialize into an actual product. Following the iPad mini, which, after a lot of similar speculation, is now very much a real device, claims of a similar, cheaper entry to the smartphone market seems to have claimed some legitimacy with time. Today, we're hearing that the device, which many have suggested will launch alongside the next flagship iPhone, will utilize the same 4-inch display of the iPhone 5, while also featuring plastic exterior casing, falling perfectly in line with previous reports.
The Samsung Galaxy S4 is finally here, and having already compared the device against the HTC One and iPhone 5, we're back with another face-off. This time, the new handset will be pitting its wits against two devices which have been presented with the mammoth task of rejuvenating the fortunes of two once-mighty brands in the mobile industry. Both Nokia and BlackBerry have enjoyed vast successes over the past decade, but as both have struggled in the wake of iOS and Android, the Nokia Lumia 920 on Windows Phone 8, and the BlackBerry Z10 on the BB10 OS, have some real ground to make up if they are to compete with the Galaxy S4. Here, we compare them with yet another like-for-like table of the vital specifications.
Samsung’s Galaxy S4 launch ceremony finally took place a few hours ago in New York City, and among the myriad dramatics and orchestral ensemble, the company’s latest flagship device was revealed in the presence of a packed crowd. If you missed your chance to catch the live stream of the Samsung UNPACKED 2013 event (because let’s face it, the Korean company runs later than most), then you’ll be pleased to know that it’s now available to watch in its entirety. More details after the jump.
Yesterday, many technology enthusiasts across the world spent the evening (or otherwise the early hours of their mornings) watching Samsung show off the new Galaxy S4 smartphone at its event in New York. While many have already made up their minds and will order the new phone, Samsung is being kind enough not to leave Galaxy S III users out in the cold: indeed, according to a Samsung spokesman, many of the software features on the new device will be pushed to the Galaxy S III in the very near future, as part of an Android software update.
