Android 4.4.4 is rolling out

If you are keeping tabs, you know that Android 4.4.3 is still in the stages of rolling out to phones around the globe. Why, then, would Google push out Android 4.4.4 so soon? In one word, security.

Samsung unleashes the Galaxy S5 LTE-A for South Korea

Good news - Samsung has unleashed a 2560x1440, 5.7-inch LTE-A variant of the Galaxy S5 with network speeds of up to 225Mbps. Bad news - (for most of us) it is for South Korea only.

There is not much to say about this one that was not previously said in my Android Authority post.

Bring the power of your PC to your mobile device using a Remote Desktop application

The modern smartphone is a very capable computing device. The Android operating system paired with over one million apps in the Google Play Store leaves very little that cannot be done. With the addition of larger screens in the tablet sphere, it becomes even easier to tackle productivity tasks, and better enjoy entertainment.

For many, there are key functions that a PC can perform that a smartphone or tablet cannot yet do, at least with ease. Primary of which for many is to operate the full Microsoft Office suite or take out the enemy in one of the many games that have graced the Microsoft operating system over the years.
