The connectivity package, processor, graphics, Android OS and TouchWiz UI, as well as the memory options and even the battery are the same as those of the Samsung Ace. Read more »

Today the Deathly Hallows Part 2 trailer was released and it looks epic. Let’s hope the movie keeps that spirit. Read more »

This doesn’t mean they have the iPhone 5 in their hands, but tells us that the next iPhone will definitely pack the dual-core A5 chip the iPad 2 has. Read more »
