Samsung to unveil ‘next Galaxy’ smartphone on May 3rd in London

There’s not much to this: members of the press have been invited to a price even on May 3rd, in London, while outsiders will have access to a Facebook stream. In the invite, Samsung refers to what could possibly be called “the next Galaxy”, meaning that this indeed could be the next-generation Galaxy device that succeeds the Galaxy S II. Time to wait and see!

Leaked: Verizon’s Upcoming Incredible 4G

There’s not much to see here: the Incredible 4G looks just as usual in terms of aesthetics to all the other DROID Incredible smartphones. The only differences here should be that the Incredible 4G is being upgraded to modern-day specs. What the Incredible 4G seems to be sporting is a 4-inch qHD display, a dual-core Snapdragon processor clocked at 1.2GHz, 1GB of RAM, an 8-megapixel rear camera with zero shutter lag, a microSD slot and run Sense 4.0 atop Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich, including an NFC chip, Beats Audio, and 4G LTE support. It should launch sometimes during this ornext quarter.

T-Mobile Announces Press Event For HTC One S On The 18th

Oh, lookie here! The press have been invited to attend a briefing for the HTC One S, along with the usual musical performances and festivities associated with launching a new lead device on a top-tier American network, this coming Wednesday, the 18th. This definitively falls in line with the rumor stating the One S would launch later on in the month. So, are you guys ready for a micro-arc oxidation phone?

Toshiba presents the Excite 7.7, 10.1, and 13.3 tablets, all with stock Android 4.0

This is the new line of tablets by Toshiba. No longer plagued by the failure that was the Thrive series, the Excite line of tablets all use a vanilla/stock version of Android 4.0, NVIDIA’s Tegra 3 quad-core SoC, and textured aluminum backs with thing profiles. The Excite 7.7 and 10 both have a 1280 x 800 AMOLED display, while the massive Excite 13, which as per the name suggests, contains a 13.3-inch display, steps it up to 1600 x 900 resolution. Additionally, there are full-sized SD card slots on the 10 and 13 models.

Did I mention that the Excite 13 looks like it means business? And it weighs a hefty 2.2 pounds.

Now, here where the object of money comes into play: you’d need to pay $650 for the 32GB Excite 13 when it goes on sale June 10th, which is well above the baseline tablet price. Next is a 64GB storage option for $750 (!), the Excite 7.7 for $500 on June 10th for 16GB and $580 for the 32GB configuration. However, to try and rush things, Toshia is making the 10-inch early to the market, arriving May 6th starting for $500 and 16GB of built-in storage space.

It’s all very complicated with Toshiba, and there mistake with gadgets is usually launching many at once, or making complicated launch plans. Or even worse, not ensuring the experience is comfortable for the user, but hopefully the Excite series is an exception. PR after the break.

In Photo, HTC One S Clearly Smokes Galaxy Nexus’ Benchmark Score

This is a very premature thing to say, or rather speculative, but above you can clearly see that the HTC One S on T-Mobile reaches much higher computational benchmark scores in the app, Quadrant, which is used by both enthusiasts and tech reviewers alike to see some of the overall capability of an Android device, besides the anecdotal methods, like downloading many apps at once and multitasking between different apps in a short period of time. Needless to say, we’re (and by this, I mainly mean myself) excited to see both the One S on T-Mobile and One X on AT&T release this month.

An HTC EVO 4G LTE prototype seen with 3D cameras in making-of video?

Perhaps this was CGI, a prototype, or a sign of things to come, but if you skip to the 25 second mark in the video seen in the source link, you’ll see alongside older HTC EVO devices and the just-announced HTC EVO 4G LTE is one version of said phone with an additional camera on the back. As per the design seen on the older EVO 3D, then that could only mean a 3D version of the EVO 4G LTE. Yes, it may sound all very complicated and not very exciting, but it would be interesting if proven true. If there is anything to see, to begin with.
