Reminder: Google Reader Shutting Down July 1


Google Reader will ride off into the sunset on Monday, July 1—not all that far away—after which your RSS information will be deleted forever. However, you can easily back up your data using Google Takeout, giving you ample opportunity to weigh up your alternative options going forward. Because once your Reader information is gone, it’s gone. If you’re someone who has invested heavily in Google’s service, you already know what’s at stake here. Don’t procrastinate.

Getting your info from Google, which saves as an OPML file through Google Takeout, couldn’t be easier. Simply enter your credentials and download one .zip file—that’s it. Even if you don’t plan on migrating to a competing service right away, you should get your data as soon as possible. And then back that data up, just in case. We’ve highlighted some alternatives—Digg just launched its own Reader, which easily moves your GReader feeds over.

The alternatives we’ve highlighted don’t cover the entire market, and chances are there are many serviceable unknowns waiting to be discovered. Many of them will import your OPML file over, though, which is why it’s so important you save it now before Google pulls the plug on Reader on Monday. Feedly seems to be the most popular thus far, so if you haven’t checked that one out, maybe it’s time you did.

Breaking up is never easy—change sucks. But Google Reader’s demise is imminent, so start preparing now. The Internet is a scary place, and keeping up with all the feeds out there, especially in this line of work, can be overwhelming. So while Google Reader will be missed, it’s time to move on, forget it even existed. Just make sure you save your data before moving on to something new.

Apple Updates FaceTime Logo Trademark


With Apple’s upcoming release of iOS 7 the entire user interface is getting a makeover, and that includes the design of all of the app icons. While that seems like a simple thing to do, it also means that the company will need to update all of the trademarks it has relating to those images.

Patently Apple discovered over the weekend that the first trademark has been updated, and it’s the icon for Apple’s FaceTime app. As opposed to the old gray logo that showed a camera with a lens in it, the new one features a green gradient background with a simple white camera in the center.

Apple has been playing around with the iOS 7 icons a bit, but with this one now having gone through the trademark office, it seems a lock that this will be the final design for the FaceTime app. We’re sure more of them will pass through the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office in the near future, giving us a better idea of what to expect when the final version of the software is released in the fall.

Sony RX100 II: Sony’s Best Point-and-Shoot Is Even Better


The past few years Sony has completely overhauled its digital photo division, digging deep and coming up with some of the best cameras on the market. From mirrorless cameras and DSLRs to basic point-and-shoots, the company has created a strong portfolio for consumers with any budget. But last year’s RX100, part of Sony’s Cyber-shot line, is perhaps the company’s—actually, the industry’s—best point-and-shoot. Was.

With the new RX100 II, Sony’s more refined point-and-shoot, the company has introduced a camera that’s even better. New is 1-inch Exmor R sensor, Wi-Fi and NFC. There’s also a tilting 3-inch LCD display, and a hot shoe for more flexibility. That tilting LCD will give users more range when shooting, more angles, while the addition of NFC and Wi-Fi will keep users connected to the outside world. Couple this with that same f/1.8 lens, and you’ve got wonderful performance in a small package.

Sony’s reworked Exmor R sensor promises better low-light images—up to 40 percent increase in light sensitivity—meaning users get a flexible shooter for all occasions. Everything being added to the RX100 II might not be enough of an upgrade for owners of last year’s model—and it’s $750, rather than the RX100’s $650 price tag—but it’s a more fine-tuned shooter that proves Sony is at the top of its game.

Nokia Amber update for WP8 Lumias coming in August


The Nokia Lumia 925 launched with a new and improved software and Nokia promised to make it available to its older WP8 phones in the summer with the so-called Amber update. Now we've got a more concrete time frame thanks to the Nokia Spain's Twitter account.


The Amber update for Nokia Lumia range with WP8 arrive in August giving the same user experience as #Lumia925
Translated with Google Translate
The Amber update will bring the new Smart Camera lens for Lumia, which does post processing tricks like Action shot, Motion focus and object removal. Check out demos of those effects here.
There’s more - Amber will enable the FM radio receiver that has been lying dormant in Windows Phone 8 powered Lumia phones (except the 620) and the "double tap to wake" lockscreen with a clock (presumably only for AMOLED packing phones).
By the way, Twitter accounts aren't 100% reliable when it comes to such information, so we're still waiting for official confirmation.

Purported images of low-cost Apple iPhone back cover emerge

Alleged photos of a back cover for an upcoming low-cost iPhone have made the rounds on the web. The images reveal a bright-green back shell, which falls in line with previous rumors about a cheaper iPhone, bound to offered in multiple colors.


There are no surprises on the alleged low-cost iPhone's back. The camera unit is accompanied by a single LED flash. A dedicated microphone appears to be tucked in between them. Naturally, an Apple logo and an iPhone sign complete the picture.
The source of the images is a micro-blogger, who's known for his connections with factory workers in China. The back cover on display has been allegedly photographed in a Foxconn facility.

Alleged press images of Sony Xperia i1 Honami leak out

After posing for live shots yesterday, the Sony Xperia Honami made yet another appearance. This time around, the yet to be revealed top-shelf smartphone showed up in alleged press images, reportedly taken from a Xperia i1 Honami system dump.




The press images show both what appears to be the international version of the smartphone, as well as one which is bound for NTT Docomo in Japan. The press renders of the former appear to be in line with the recently leaked live images of the device. Sadly, no images of the device's back are available at the moment.
There is no official launch date for the Sony Xperia Honami. Considering the intensifying leaks of the device however, we doubt it will be a long wait. Until then, use the usual pinch of salt when checking out the images.

Nokia sets up Trade-up program for your used phone in the US

Nokia, in partnership with Clover Wireless, has launched a trade in program for the US. The initiative allows you to give your old smartphone and receive a VISA prepaid card that you can use for purchasing a brand new Nokia Lumia smartphone.


Currently eligible for the discount are the Nokia Lumia 920, Lumia 925 and Lumia 928. You can submit any smartphone to see how much of a financial benefit it'd translate to when purchasing one of the aforementioned Windows Phone 8 smartphones.
The value of a submitted smartphone is determined by Clover Wireless, who has more than 20 years of experience in the resale market and it says it's analyzing the market constantly. The maximum balance you can receive in the VISA prepaid card is $300.
For example, based on its condition, an iPhone 4S is worth up to $250, $210 for a Samsung Galaxy S3 or $250 for an HTC One. After you've determined the cost of your phone using Nokia's specialized webpage (source link below) you send it in the mail with a proof of purchase of your new Nokia Lumia attached. And that's it.What do you think of Nokia's latest attempt at luring in customers in the US? Would you participate in such program if Nokia made it available in your country as well?

iPhone Maintains US Lead Despite Slow Growth in Latest comScore Report


Technology research firm comScore released its latest U.S. smartphone market report today, covering the past three months through May. The results showed slow growth for Apple, which still dominates the smartphone market despite increased competition from Samsung, but showed that Google’s Android operating system slightly increased its lead over iOS in the past few months.

Out of 141 million smartphone owners in the country, 39.2 percent carry an iPhone (up 0.3 percentage points from comScore’s last report in February). Meanwhile, Samsung saw a 1.7 percentage point market gain for a total of 23 percent of U.S. smartphones. Rounding out the top five in descending order were HTC, Motorola and LG, which each saw slight losses in market share.

Meanwhile, Android maintained its majority market share for smartphone mobile platforms, jumping 0.7 percentage points from 51.7 percent to 52.4 percent of the market. Apple’s iOS held on in second place, although CEO Tim Cook argued at WWDC 2013 that iOS 6 is actually the most used platform, far ahead of the most-used Android iteration. BlackBerry, Microsoft and Symbian rounded out the top five with 4.8, 3 and 0.4 percent of the market, respectively.

iPhone Market Share Drops 11 Percent in Western Europe


The mobile phone market in Western Europe saw a decline of 4.2 percent in the first quarter of 2013, according to a new report from the International Data Corporation (IDC). Likewise, Apple’s market share dropped by 11 percent and Nokia’s share dropped by 30 percent.

Nokia has struggled to gain a fresh foothold in the market while pushing its line of Windows Phone handsets. Meanwhile, Apple’s weak sales are likely in relation to consumers who are waiting for the rumored iPhone 5S, which is expected to launch sometime between now and fall 2013. Meanwhile, IDC reports that Samsung, Sony and LG shipments were all up over the past year. While we imagine Samsung’s bump is likely due to the success of the Galaxy S4, it also creates very affordable smartphones for the market.

The report partially blames the slowdown of the mobile market on the European economic crisis, noting that sales continued to drop off as “economies deteriorated.”

IDC also said that Android continues to dominate in Europe; its market share increased over the past year from an install base on 55 percent of all smartphones to 69 percent of all smartphones. Apple’s iOS lost ground, dropping to just 20 percent from 25 percent a year ago. Meanwhile, Microsoft saw slight gains with Windows Phone 8, which jumped from a 4 percent market share to a 6 percent share in the last 12 months.
