HTC M7 smartphone leaks through a rendered image

We have already seen the rumored specifications for the HTC M7, the company's upcoming flagship device and supposedly a replacement for the One X. Now we have a rendered image to go with it.

The rendered image looks strikingly similar to the BlackBerry L-series device that we have seen in the past, which itself sort of looks like the iPhone 5. The display is flanked by two colored plastic portions on the top and the bottom. Both areas have a rather pronounced grille area, with the top also housing the front facing camera and the various sensors. Unfortunately, this is the only picture we have for now.

The specs, as we had learned before, include a 4.7-inch, 1920 x 1080 resolution display with an incredible 468 ppi pixel density, 1.7GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, 2GB of RAM, 32GB of storage space, 13 megapixel, f/2.0 rear camera and 2 megapixel front facing camera with 1080p video recording.

It is being rumored that the M7 will likely be announced at Mobile World Congress this year.

Nokia Lumia 830 leaks in China, surprises everyone

Leaked images of what is allegedly another upcoming WP smartphone from Nokia, namely the Lumia 830, surfaced.

Before you get too excited, the Lumia 830 will not be a beefier variant of the upcoming Lumia 820, but rather a successor to the Lumia 710. Given that no spec sheet was given, we're holding off on putting too much validity to that peculiar naming convention.

For now, what we do known about the Lumia 830 is that it will come in five colors, and run on Windows Phone 8.

Official Jelly Bean ROM for Samsung Galaxy S III I9300 leaks

Another proof that Samsung is hard at work on the Android 4.1 Jelly Bean update for its Galaxy S III flagship has emerged. An official Samsung Jelly Bean 4.1.1 ROM for the I9300 has surfaced in an ten-minute long video, thus showing us what the TouchWiz-ed version of Google's OS looks like.

Here's the video itself.

As you have probably noticed, the visual change is not overly dramatic, compared to the current ICS interface of the I9300. The notification area has been improved at a first glance, along with the expectedly smoother scrolling and integration of Google's latest additions to Android.

Thanks to everyone who sent this in!

T-Mobile bound, Windows 8 running Samsung handset leaks

It appears that Windows Phone fans who are customers of T-Mobile US are in for treat in the near future. A Windows Phone 8 running Samsung smartphone, carrying the T-Mobile specific model number SGH-T899 has leaked out in a user agent profile.

The smartphone in question is likely the previously rumored Samsung "Odyssey." Its reported specs include a dual-core Snapdragon S4 CPU and a gig of RAM, 4.65" 720p display, 8MP snapper, and NFC connectivity.

The device's most important feature however, will likely be the presence of LTE network capacity. The latter will make the Samsung "Odyssey" one of the first real 4G devices bound for the Big Magenta.

There is no further info on the upcoming Samsung smartphone at the moment. As always, we'll tell you as soon as we find out more on the subject.

Crytek’s senior lightning artist leaks breathtaking Crysis 3 screenshots

Crysis has always been famous with its awesome graphics and expectations have always been tremendous. The first game was a breakthrough in the PC graphics, but the second one couldn’t quite achieve the same heights due to its multi-platform nature. Still, Crysis 2 remained an amazing looking game and we were curious to see what its successor will look like.

On this year’s E3 Crytek showed a short but stunning demo of Crysis 3 in action. Today a few screenshots of the demo’s Canyon environment leaked for us to feast our eyes on.

The leak came from Crytek’s senior lightning artist Pierre-Yves Donzallaz, who posted the shots on his blog, but later took them down. Luckily, the time those juicy shots spent online was enough for them to be downloaded and shared around the web.

According to Donzallaz, those shots are “100% realtime lighting and postprocessing“. If that’s true, well…Crysis 3 will be in the running for the best looking game ever.

I am a fan of the otherwise considered mediocre Crysis series and I personally can’t wait to run this thing on a powerful gaming PC next February. Sure, the PS3 and Xbox 360 version will look awesome too, but PC has always been where Crysis titles feel most at home.

Purported images of the next generation iPhone leaks

We have seen leaked images of the next generation iPhone before but those were just of the aluminum back shell.

Today, we have what looks like a completely assembled device placed next to the current iPhone 4S. As before, the device is noticeably longer pointing towards a bigger, widescreen display. We can see edge to edge glass on top and the black aluminum body on the side.

The previous pictures also denoted a two tone back, with plastic/glass on the top and bottom and aluminum in the middle. In these, however, the back seems to be of a single color. The bottom has also been redesigned with a completely new, smaller dock connector, large grilles for the speaker and microphone and a headphone jack, which has been relocated to the bottom.

As is often the case, one should take these with a pinch of salt. Still, these are some fairly convincing images. We'll be seeing more of these as the launch of the next generation iPhone draws closer.

Sprint's upcoming LG LS730 leaks out

It looks like the recently leaked LG LS970 "Eclipse" and LG LS860 "Cayenne" will have an entry level sibling on Sprint's network. The entry-level LG LS730 "Snapshot" has emerged in a curiously looking spy photo, which reveals the blurry front, and perfectly clear backside of the upcoming device.

The image on hand is enough to suggest that the upcoming smartphone is rather closely related to the globally available LG Optimus L7 P700, and so do its specs. They include a single-core Qualcomm MSM8655 CPU and Adreno 205 GPU, 768MB RAM and 4GB of built-in memory, 5MP camera and 1700mAh battery. The handset's body will be only 8.8mm thin - again in line with the waistline of the L7.

Expect to see the LG LS730 at some point in Q4, wearing a low price tag and modest market ambitions.

Samsung S Voice leaks alongside some widgets, apps and ringtones from the Galaxy S III

First Flipboard lost its Galaxy S III exclusivity and is currently available for all Androids, now S Voice and various apps and widgets from the Galaxy S III followed suit.

The credit for leaking the highly anticipated S Voice goes to XDA member PlaYOuT, who extracted it and made it available for everyone’s downloading pleasure. Soon before him, however, ithehappy went a step further and made available a couple of widgets, apps and ringtones from Samsung’s new flagship.

Now AccuWeather, GTalk, YouTube, FM Radio, a couple of digital clock widgets and S III’s ringtones are available for download from the source links below. There is also an explanation on how to run them on your device. Keep in mind your Android has to be rooted and run Ice Cream Sandwich.

According to user reports, S Voice is working without hiccups, but just like us, they are not heavily impressed with Samsung’s virtual personal assistant. Follow the links below to install the leaked Galaxy S III software goodies.

Thanks for the tip, anonymous

Flipboard for Android apk leaks prematurely, brings cool news feeds to non-Galaxy S III users

Flipboard first launched for iOS devices and Android users have been hoping it’d launch for their beloved platform as well ever since. Yet it was only at the Samsung Galaxy S III announcement event last week that we finally got confirmation that droids will be having a piece of Flipboard action.

Unfortunately, the app was announced as Galaxy S III exclusive at launch, which meant the only way for you to get it is buy a Galaxy S III. Thankfully, though, one XDA user managed to extract it from the device and made it available to everyone right now. To get it, just head over to the source link below and download the apk. Once you do, transfer it to your Android device and install it (make sure you’ve enabled Untrusted sources from the Settings).

And don’t worry, it’s not malware, we tested it around the GSMArena office and it works like a charm. And if you have trouble find your way around the app itself, don’t hesitate to check out our extensive Flipboard review for guidance.

If you do install Flipboard on your droid, do not hesitate to share your impressions of it with the rest of us in the comments section below.

Sony Xperia ST26i leaks for the first time

Yesterday the Sony LT29i Hayabusa leaked in a blurry shot. Shortly after that the official announcement came.

Today we have another Sony leak for you as the first images of the Sony ST26i surfaced. Obviously its an Xperia smartphone running on Android, but that's about as much as we can tell you about the specs. Unlike the Japan-bound duo unveiled earlier, though, this one keeps the capacitive keys instead of relying on on-screen buttons. Lets hope the ST26i wont be released with Gingerbread as the Xperia S and its smaller siblings.

Sony ST26i

There is one more interesting thing about the Xperia ST26i its the first Sony smartphone to lack the green globe logo since Sony purchased Ericsson's share in the joint venture.

We guess the announcement should happen soon.

Samsung Galaxy S III leaks again hours before the announcement

This is becoming the iPhone all over again. Yet another Galaxy S III unit has escaped the Samsung R&D center and posed for some pictures. There aren't any specs to go with the photos, but those should be finally confirmed in a few hours.

The Samsung Galaxy S III

The device is running on Android 4.0.4 ICS, the ROM version is from April and the build is specifically for Brazil.

Sammobile's tipster also says there might be another device showcased at the event in London tonight. It's supposed to be carrying the model number I9800, but thats all the info about it we got. We'd certainly advise you to take this rumor with a pinch of salt, though.

The Samsung UNPACKED event kicks off in less than 10 hours now and we'll be covering it live for you, so stay tuned.

Entry-level ICS-running Sony ST21i leaks

Photos and specifications of an yet unannounced Sony smartphone just surfaced. The guys from Techblog.gr got some live photos and specs of the ICS-running Sony ST21i and they were kind enough to share them with us.

Sony ST21i live photos

Sony ST21i reportedly rocks Android 4.0.3 ICS and is powered by a Qualcomm MSM7227 chipset with a single-core Snapdragon CPU clocked at 800 MHz and an Adreno 200 GPU - just like the one found in the Xperia X10 mini, X8, Galaxy Ace and others.

The Sony ST21i display is a 3.2-incher LCD of HVGA (320 x 480) resolution, but lacks the BRAVIA engine. A 3 MP camera that does VGA video recording is supposed to sit on the back of the compact droid.

There's no info on the pricing and availability of the smartphone just yet.

Samsung Galaxy S3 photo leaks, yes, again

It's time for today's "photo of the Samsung Galaxy S3" leak - these seem to occur more and more often as we come closer to May 3, when Samsung's Unpacked event will finally settle things one and for all.

The leaked photo in question (the one on the left) shows a device with a hardware home button with two capacitive keys on its sides (menu and back). You can see the volume rocker on the left and the power/lock key on the right - basically, the standard Samsung arrangement.

Note: the middle and right photos come from previous leaks.

The newly leaked photo is the one on the left

The screen is off, so there's no way to tell if the device uses the on-screen buttons that we've seen in previous leaks. But it does look an awful lot like the sketch in the alleged leaked manual. And the bezel is very thin - as it would need to be with the rumored 4.6-4.8" screen.

DROID RAZR HD name leaks through EXIF data

An image belonging to a certain Motorola DROID RAZR HD has been found floating around Picasa. It belongs to Vic Yu, who is an engineer and program manager at Motorola Mobility.

The name was found within the EXIF data for this picture, along with other information, such as the f/2.4 aperture. The image from which this EXIF data comes from was shot at 6 megapixels, but it's in 16:9 aspect ratio, which means at 4:3 the image resolution would be 8 megapixels.

The HD moniker suggests that the phone has a 720p display. This is not unheard of as we have seen a variant of the Motorola RAZR being sold in China with a 4.5-inch, 720p HD display and a 13 megapixel camera (the US version might have just an 8 megapixel camera from the current DROID RAZR, though). This phone has been sold exclusively in China till now, along with another variant without the Kevlar back, but it seems now that Motorola might be bringing it to other markets, starting with the US on Verizon.

Nokia 306 graphic leaks out from a manual, raises questions

A graphic, taken from the manual of a prototype has leaked out, showing us the touch screen sporting, Nokia 306. Curiously enough however, there is no information on the OS, which the upcoming Nokia will be running.

The device could be running a Symbian version, due to its support for multiple home screens, along with a status menu, located at the top of the screen. On the other hand, the two button configuration below the display, and its resolution of 240x412 pixels point into an updated S40. So does the name of the device, which strongly suggests that the Nokia 306 belongs to the Asha family.

The leaked specs of the Nokia 306 include Bluetooth, Wi-Fi (b/g), MicroSD card slot, Micro USB port, FM Radio, and AV Out. The battery is Nokia BL-4U with a 1100mAh capacity.

Android 4.0.4 OTA update for Nexus S 4G leaks

Google released the Android 4.0 update for the Nexus S last year in December but the Nexus S 4G for Sprint was inexplicably left out. A couple of months ago an Android 4.0.4 ROM leaked for the device, which made people hope that the official OTA update would arrive soon but that did not happen.

Today, we have another leaked ROM for the Nexus S 4G. This one will update your phone to Android 4.0.4, bringing all the features that other Nexus S users have been enjoying for months, along with some improvements to the WiMAX reception, due to the updated baseband.

Google recently started rolling out the Android 4.0.4 update to the GSM versions of the Galaxy Nexus and the Nexus S but few users have actually received the update so far, with most choosing to simply flash it manually. Knowing Google's history of ignoring the Nexus S 4G when it comes to updates, you might want to jump the gun and flash it manually.
