Multiple outlets reporting HTC outed first international Google Play edition launch at event in India
Until now Google Play edition devices have been exclusive to the U.S., but that could be about to change. Multiple Indian media outlets are reporting that the HTC One M8 Google Play edition has been announced for sale there.

There are so many groups and organizations that certify devices for compatibility and safety, so it’s not terribly surprising when one of those groups publishes data on something that’s yet to be announced — like Android 4.4.3. Earlier this week saw Sprint announcing an update to Android 4.4.3 for the Nexus 5, and today it’s the Bluetooth Special Interest Group’s turn. In this case it’s another “Google” device, the Sony Z Ultra Google Play edition.
The official Android game for The Amazing Spider-Man 2 hit the Play Store today, offering plenty of web-slinging and smart-alecky heroism. The storyline expands on what’s in the movie, and has tons of unlockables, like the Symbiote Spider-Man costume, and butt heads with villains like Venom and Kraven the Hunter.

It’s also worth noting that the aspect ratio of the shot is properly reflected in the preview now, a longtime issue with the old stock Camera app. And the much maligned radial menu [Read More…]

You have more options than ever to take amazingly crisp and clear pictures, or selectively apply an artistic [Read More…]
It has been a trend for companies to put their standalone apps in the Play Store for quick updating. Google usually does this type of thing with all of their apps. One, however, has never been included in the Play Store… until today. They’ve finally added their camera app to Google Play.
The camera comes with a much-needed interface update, as well as a [Read More…]
