Apple puts up '7' sign banners at WWDC, confirms next iOS version

Apple is expected to announce its next iteration of iOS in its upcoming World Wide Developers Conference, which will kick start on June 10.
Apple has begun to decorate its Moscone Center in San Francisco, the venue for WWDC 2013, and the banner used in the process shows the number '7'. This more or less confirms that the Cupertino giant will be announcing a new version of iOS.
Moreover, the much anticipated iOS 7 recently appeared in a GFXBench database and confirmed its presence. The upcoming iOS version is expected to feature a major UI redesign with a flat new look under the leadership of Apple's Senior Vice President of Industrial Design - Jony Ive.
Apple's official WWDC 2013 app for iOS is already available and, in case you are not able to attend the event, stay tuned to our website, as we will be bringing you all the latest happenings from the developer's conference live.




HTC One mini M4 gets certified by Bluetooth SIG

HTC M4 leaks have been around since February. We saw its specs, live pictures and even camera details recently.
We already know M4 is the codename behind the HTC One mini. The handset is supposed to be a mini version of the 4.7" HTC One (M7) flagship powered by a dual-core chipset and running on a smaller 4.3" 720p display.
Today, the HTC One mini was certified by the Bluetooth SIG, so if the live pictures weren't enough to convince you of its existence, the certification will do the job. The document also points to the fact that the launch of the device is drawing close and we should see an announcement sooner rather than later.
In case you wonder how we know HTC PO58XXX means HTC M4 - the M4 already appeared under the same model in the Wi-Fi certification database.

Samsung Galaxy S4 Active to cost as much as a regular Galaxy S4

Samsung announced the IP67-certified Galaxy S4 Active just two days ago and it's supposed to hit the US and Sweden in the summer.
The Samsung Galaxy S4 Active is powered by the same Snapdragon 600 chipset as the vanilla Galaxy S4, but comes with an 8MP camera and a 5" 1080p TFT display. The rest of the specs stay the same. The Galaxy S4 Active is IP67-certified for dust and water resistance (up to 1 meter for 30 minutes).


Samsung didn't specify the pricing details at the announcement but today we get some info on the Russian official pricing. The Galaxy S4 Active will costs exactly the same as the Galaxy S4 flagship in Russia (about €700). Which means the same will probably apply in the rest of the world.
The Samsung Galaxy S4 costs a little under €550 in most markets, so we expect Samsung to release the Galaxy S4 Active at about the same price point. It make sense since the Active has almost identical hardware as the S4 and adds a tougher dust and water resistant shell as a compensation for the lower-res camera and the lack of AMOLED screen.

Samsung marketing cap slips 6% on weak smartphone sales rumor

Samsung Electronics's market value has taken a $12 billion hit as the company's share price has dropped 6%.

The reason is the rumored slowdown of Galaxy S4 sales, which while starting quite strong are losing momentum according to some analysts. Furthermore, investors are fearing that the company's newly introduced Galaxy S4 mini will eat into the profit margins as some people might choose it over the full-sized Galaxy S4.
Samsung's market evaluation suffers even more due to rumors floating the web that Apple is planning to start a trade-in program for its iPhone. We'll see what Apple has to announce in just a couple of days' time at its WWDC conference. Whatever investors' feeling are, the fact is that Samsung is the alpha dog of the smartphone world in Q1 2013.

1.2 million HTC Ones were sold in May, twice more than April

According to Citigroup Global Markets Inc analyst Kevin Chang HTC may have sold 1.2 million HTC One units in May, which is a 100% increase compared to April.
That would mean that with the addition of the first week of June around 2 million HTC Ones were sold, which fits-in nicely with the revenue increase HTC posted in May but drastically contradicts previous reports that HTC has sold 5 million One units. However until we see a complete breakdown of the numbers by HTC itself we cannot say for sure.


Analysts expect the momentum to continue throughout this month and, barring any major announcements in the Summer as well..
HTC has apparently dealt with the shortages in the HTC One's production, which in turn leads to higher sales.

Sony Xperia ZU (Togari) image leaks, LOLcat in tow

The Sony Xperia ZU, codenamed Togari, has made an appearance in its first live photo. The image which purportedly displays the side of the Xperia ZU isn't of very good quality. However, that is compensated by the cute cat that stands on top of Sony's phablet.

The cat aside, the Xperia ZU looks to carry the design language of the Tablet Z and Xperia Z featuring straight edges and amazingly thin profile. Rumored to sport a 6.44-inch 1080p display, the Xperia ZU is said to be powered by the 2.3GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 chipset and 2GB of RAM.
On top of that, chatter around the web suggests the phone will be IP58 certified and will support pencils for stylus. The Xperia ZU is expected to run on Android 4.2.2.
Sony will be holding an event on June 25, and we reckon the Japanese will show off the Xperia ZU there.

Nokia EOS gets quick review, camera details still unknown

Nokia might as well make the EOS official already, after multiple leaks the WP8 sharpshooter now has a short preview. The preview is light on details, but is still an interesting first look at the 808 PureView successor.
The phone reportedly feels a bit on the heavy side and the reviewer from ViziLeaks couldn’t quite make out the material. It's probably polycarbonate, but possibly metal too (whichever it is, it's certainly high quality). The Nokia EOS uses a design very similar to the Lumia 920.

The arrangement of controls, ports and slots is the same as on the other Lumia phones. On the left are the volume rocker, Power/Lock key and the all-important shutter key. On top is the microSIM card slot and the 3.5mm audio jack, with the microUSB port and loudspeaker grilsl at the bottom.




It's the back that's interesting, really, with the bulging camera module with Carl Zeiss lens, xenon flash and LED light. Unfortunately, the ViziLeaks team was not allowed to check the megapixel count on the camera or get any other specs.




Update: The Nokia EOS has a mechanical shutter, which can be seen in the video below.

Also on the back are two pogo pins (like the Lumia 925 has) for connecting wireless charging covers, meaning the Nokia EOS probably won't have this built in. Nokia probably didn’t want to add any more weight to an already heavy phone (the 808 PureView tipped the scales at 169g).

Sony event on June 25, will it unveil the Xperia Togari phablet?

June will be a busy month and now Sony has thrown its hat in the ring – "it is time for the next step" the company says in the invites it sent out, promising a look into the future. The invites are for an event on June 25.
There's not even a hint of what the star of the show will be, but Sony will announce more details later.


It doesn’t hurt to speculate though. The Sony Xperia L4 Togari phablet is one option, with a 6.44" 1080p screen, which supports the use of pencils as styluses, a Snapdragon 800 chipset and Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean.
Another name from the rumor mill is the Sony Xperia C670X, with a 4.8" 1080p screen and quad-core Snapdragon 600. Earlier this year we also stumbled on the Xperia C680X, but there's little info about it.
Of course, it could be something less exciting but we'll have to wait and see – and hope some more info slips out.

Gunship III v3.0.1 APK and DATA files (APK+DATA/OBB)


Immerse yourself into the mist of the Vietnam war as an US helicopter pilot.
Be part of the new air mobility tactic which helicopters are heavily used to insert troops into battles, transport supplies and weapons to the most remote outposts or dangerous low level Hunter-Killer missions.

ADVANCED SIMULATION
Not like other flight sim games for mobile devices, in Gunship-III the cockpit is highly simulated with ultra-realistic 3D cockpit, full function dashboard, realistic sound effects and all moving parts.

Flight characteristics are also highly accurate thanks to the Blade element theory. Wings are breaking down into several small parts and then determined the forces on each of these small elements. These forces are then integrated along the entire wing in order to obtain the forces and moments produced by the entire wing. This results in a highly dynamic, accurate flight model for each specified aircraft.

Even though helicopter controls are simplified and stabilized, you still could do many advanced maneuver such as AutoRotation, Trade airspeed for high, coming hot and flare for landing, etc.

You could even feel all the forces affect the pilot body with the pilot head effect which could only found in high-end flight simulator for PC.

Graphics are highly detail for city, jungle, airbases. Each map features 200x200 kilometers flyable area. In Gunship-III everything is in real scale, each city has thousand of trees and houses.

MORE AIRCRAFT
In Gunship-III, you have more aircraft available to play more than any other games. We're working hard to bring even more aircraft and ground vehicles as well in coming up updates.

WEAPON SIMULATION
Weapon systems in Gunship-III are also highly detail and accurate with real recorded sounds, high fire rate for minigun as well explosion effect for bomb and rocket.

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENT (AI)
In Gunship-III, you'll never fly alone. Each mission features many AI aircrafts that will join your mission and perform many advanced tasks such as Close Air Support, Escort, Patrol and Transport.

And just like real gunship helicopter, you will have AI gunners onboard who will shoot at anything firing at them and make sure nothing could touch your aircraft.

The enemy is also aggressive and fearless, they only shoot at you when you get close and be aware of those RPG, they sure take an aircraft down just by one hit.

Overall, Gunship-III is an advanced Vietnam War flight combat simulation game with many features are now first time available for mobile gaming.

Features:
AI aircraft performance advanced combat tasks.
360 3D cockpit view with zoom.
Fully functioning cockpit avionics.
Pilot G visual effects.
Auto pilot for long flight.
Weapon system: minigun, rocket, smoke grenade...
Details graphics with cities, trees, ground troop on a vast 200x200 km map.
