The Galaxy S 4 Zoom will have a 16MP sensor, not unlike the one in the Galaxy… Read more

Their success as a company is riding on the HTC One, and with the release of its unaudited revenue for the month of April, it seems to be working.

Someone took the time to design the mock up, and now it has shown up on another website, with its own sales page. It’s listed as out of stock, so you can’t buy… Read more
