You’ll go to the store to grab a loaf of bread without your iPod or your laptop, but I’ll bet you don’t leave the house without your phone in your pocket. I’m not judging — I do the same — I’m just commenting on just how much our phones can become part [Read More…]
Icebreaker: A Viking Voyage is a puzzle game that involves slicing through blocks of ice in order to get abandoned vikings to their longboats.

We can’t believe we finally added this feature we’ve said we were adding!
OK, folks. You want it, you got it. We’ve finally added the ability to post images to the Android Central forums right from our most popular app. (That’d be the Android Central app, of course!)

Now we can see the G3 in full — and in gold — and get we get a much better overall view of both the front and back that we’ve haven’t seen before. Keep in mind that even though the G3 looks shiny and metallic here, [Read More…]
If the new Google Play services app is any indication, Google wants to make it easier for developers to let you buy goods and services inside their app. Imagine this — an app for ShopAndroid that recognized your device, then let you click and buy accessories using Google Wallet. If things can get there (not quite yet, I imagine) it brings a new level of convenience for customers, and a great way for retailers to get [Read More…]

HTC is rumored to be working on a true competitor to Samsung’s Galaxy Note 3 to be released later this fall.

Two new Chromebook options with industry-standard specs and prices
After taking its first shot at Chromebooks with education-focused models earlier this year, Lenovo is ready to jump into the general consumer market with the N20 and N20p Chromebooks. As far as specs go, these two laptops are seemingly cut from the same cloth as others on the market. We’re looking at 11.6-inch 1366 x 768 displays, Intel Celeron (but Haswell, mind you) processors, “up to” 16GB [Read More…]
