HTC One S Will Not Get Android 4.2 Or Sense 5 Update Read more: HTC One S Will Not Get Android 4.2 Or Sense 5 Update

The lightweight aluminum construction, distinct design, blazing performance and somewhat affordable price combined to make a mid-range device that was in many ways more desirable and accessible than the One X, the HTC One S didn’t reach the level of success that HTC expected.
Both the HTC One S and One X began their lives with the same Android 4.0.3 software running Sense 4.0. But, as flagship products tend to, the One X got more love from the Taiwanese manufacturer, while the middle child played second fiddle, receiving sporadic updates that finally petered out.
While the HTC One S was updated to Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean beginning in February, the company has decided that it will not be updated to Android 4.2 like its One X counterpart.
We can confirm that the HTC One S will not receive further Android OS updates and will remain on the current version of Android and HTC Sense.  We realize this news will be met with disappointment by some, but our customers should feel confident that we have designed the HTC One S to be optimized with our amazing camera and audio experiences.
Yes, HTC, this will be met with disappointment. There is no reason whatsoever the One S should be cast aside while the One X should continue to thrive.
Not only is the HTC One S still a solid handset in its own right, but we can also imagine that the device will receive further updates going forward via custom ROMs from the developer community. After all, if the HTC G1 can rock Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich in any facet, you can bet that the HTC One S will be in good hands.
Any HTC One S owners looking to flash a custom ROM going forward or are you happy with it as it is?

Windows 8 upgrade to cost a bomb from February 1


If you’re still deciding if you want to upgrade to Windows 8 or not, we advice you make your decision as soon as possible because come February 1, Microsoft will increase the prices of Windows 8 Pro upgrade edition and what costs a mere $39.33 (Rs.2,200) right now, would cost $200 (Rs.11,000) after January 31.
At the time of launch of the new OS, Microsoft had announced that the upgrade to Windows 8 Pro was just a promotional offer and would be valid for a limited time only. Even though Microsoft did announce that a price correction would happen, not many people believed that Microsoft would actually increase the price. Currently, Microsoft allows the users of Windows 7, Vista or XP to upgrade to Windows 8 Pro edition for just $39.99.
According to the official Windows blog, the new prices effective from February 1,2013 are as follows-
  • The Windows 8 Pro upgrade edition will be available online and at retail for $199.99 MSRP (U.S.).
  • The Windows 8 upgrade edition will be available online and at retail for $119.99 MSRP (U.S.).
  • The Windows 8 Pro Pack will cost $99.99 MSRP (U.S.).
  • The Windows 8 Media Center Pack will cost $9.99 MSRP (U.S.).
Considering the offer price, the new cost for upgrade to Windows 8 Pro seems quite steep. This deadline can also be seen as a final attempt by Microsoft to rake in more and more people to switch to the latest version of it’s OS. Though Microsoft has recently announced that the company has sold nearly 40 million licenses for Windows 8, but still many analysts feel that the new Operating System isn’t performing as well as the company would have liked.
If you plan to upgrade your OS after February 11 but a re reluctant to spend $200, Microsoft has got a cheaper alternative for you. Microsoft will offer a basic Windows 8 edition for $120, which obviously would get lesser features as compared to Windows 8 Pro edition.
Also, the Media Center Pack, which is available for free to Windows 8 Pro users as of now, would cost $10 from February 1. This would mark an end to all the promotional offers, which came along with Windows 8 at it’s launch. It is also to be noted that even the Windows 8 previews expired on January 15 and the users who hadn’t purchased the license, had their systems restarted every one or two hours asking them to upgrade to a paid copy of Windows 8 Pro.

Apple Stock slips after report of waning iPhone Sales


After an unconfirmed report of the iPhones sales dropping in December, Apple investors seem to be dropping out of the bite.  Investors briefly drove Apple stock below $500 on Monday, continuing a slide from a peak of more than $700 in September.
This continued downfall has increased the pressure on the pending January 23rd Earnings call that would lead to immediate reforms for the company. If Apple wildly exceeds expectations, as it did last year, investors hope the Apple stock will repeat the remarkable run that peaked in September.
But if the earnings disappoint, or if Apple execs reduce their sales projections for the coming quarter, there’s no telling how far Apple stock that’s already down 28.5% in the last three months could plummet. Apple’s stock closed Monday at $501.75, down $18.55, or 3.57%.
Like many Apple rumors and stories, however, this latest development was open to different interpretations. Many analysts and independent observers suggested indications that Apple had cut its outlook for the iPhone 5 by as much as half seemed extreme, given recent reports of strong smartphone sales by Verizon Wireless and AT&T.
Another view could have been the early launch of a revised iPhone, that possibly has a different size or type of display. A newer iPhone, a newer iPad and a retina iPad mini are all the correct tools that Apple needs to drive stock back up to the wonderful $700 mark.

Google NeXus 4: Specification And Review


Google bombed the smartphone market when it announced it’s latest flagship smartphone, the Nexus 4. Even with the top-of-the-line specifications, Google priced the device at a mere $299 in the US for an unlocked 8GB version while the 16GB version was priced at $350. The viral effect of the pricing was seen at the time of launch of the Nexus 4, when it went out of stock within minutes of being launched and since then, LG and Google have been struggling to get the smartphone in-stock again.
The Google Nexus 4 comes with beautiful 4.7-inch True HD IPS Plus display with a resolution of 768 x 1280 pixels which amounts to 317 pixels per inch (ppi) and blows away even the iPhone 5′s Retina display. The smartphone is powered by a 1.5GHz Quad-core Qualcom Snapdragron processor, Adreno 320GPU and 2GB of RAM. The raw power under the hood of the Nexus 4 is enough to blow the competition out of water and provide the best Android experience you can get till date. 
The Nexus 4 houses an 8 megapixel camera with LED flash at the back which is nothing to brag about, but takes some decent pictures nonetheless. The front of the Nexus 4 also gets a 1.3 megapixel VGA camera which can be used for video calling. The phone comes with 8GB or 16GB storage options with no expandable storage option which is a bit of a downer as the storage space will surely be a concern, especially if you end up buying the 8GB version.
The Google Nexus 4 gets a 2,100 mAh battery which does a fairly decent job and the phone can easily last through a full day of usage. Another bummer with the Nexus 4 is the fact that it lacks 4G LTE connectivity which could be a deal breaker for some. Now, the price at which the Nexus 4 comes is just unbelievable, which is less than half the price at which it’s rivals like the Galaxy S3 and iPhone 5 retail in the US. Wait till we come out with our detailed review of the Nexus 4 and see if it really lives up to the hype.

Micromax Superfone Canvas 2 A110 Review

With the huge success of the Superfone Canvas A100, Micromax has decided to do raise the bar once again for what a sub-10K Android smartphone should look like. With the same massive 5-inch screen making a comeback, they’ve managed to fit in a dual-core CPU this time – all for the same price as the previous one. Too good to be true?

Design and Build 
The Canvas 2 A110 once again borrows many design cues from the Galaxy Nexus. The chrome trim along the side is shaped in such a way so as to create an illusion of a curved glass. You get a nice nice chunky volume rocker on one side along with a power/sleep button on the other side. The phone appears larger than it actually is due to thick bezels on either side. There is a row of sensors beside the chrome plated earpiece and the back cover is quite sturdy and doesn’t scratch easily. The matt finish helps keep fingerprints away. The 8MP shooter produces quite a bulge at the back so you need to be careful as the lens cover will scratch easily.
A decent camera
A decent camera


The 5-inch LCD display has quite a low resolution of 854 x 480 which makes images, icons, etc. lose their sharpness. The screen doesn’t appear to be of a very good quality either as the viewing angles are pretty poor and there’s terrible banding throughout.  We now know where Micromax has cut corners in order to offer this phone at the same price point.


could have had a larger battery
Could have had a larger battery


Overall, the Canvas 2 is built well but is too bulky and quite heavy as well. We could have done without the chrome trim along the edges which quite frankly, gives the phone a cheap look. But then again, it is a cheap phone so there’s that. Unfortunately, the placement of the microSD card does not allow for hot-swap as the battery gets in the way. 

Features 
Interface
The Canvas 2 A110 sticks to the stock interface of Android Ice Cream Sandwich for the most part, except for some changes to the notification bar, where we now have side-scrollable toggle switches. The UI is far from smooth though, which is a bit strange when you consider the fact that it’s powered by a dual-core CPU. It all makes sense when you take a closer look at the type of SoC used. Instead of a Qualcomm or TI OMAP, Micromax has used the MT6577 SoC from MediaTek. This comprises of a dual-core 1GHz Cortex-A9 CPU and PowerVR GPU. This SoC is specifically designed for the sub-$200 smartphone segment and has the potential to support up to 720p displays and record videos at 1080p. Unfortunately, Micromax has not exploited its full potential, which is why we have to live with lag in the UI. Another important feature that’s missing is an ambient light sensor.
UI is not the smoothest
UI is not the smoothest


Other than the stock UI and apps, Micromax has added a SIM management option to set the default card for call, messages, Internet, etc. Both SIMs can be active at the same time if needed. Another feature added is a scheduled power off option, which lets you switch the phone on or off at a designated time and day of the week.
