Ahead of the announcement of the entire Galaxy S3, it seems as if Samsung thinks it’s a good idea to talk about their new processor. It is based off of the ARM Cortex A9, Samsung’s new chip—which and is called Exynos 4 Quad — each and every one will feature four cores all running at 1.4 GHz. In terms of its building process it, unlike the older Exynos 4 Dual, uses 32 nanometer technology instead of the older 45 nanometer tech.
But was does any of this mean? For starters, it is capable of full 30fps 1080p video playback and recording, will feature an interface for HDMI 1.4 and also come with some embedded image signal processing capabilities while also being 20 per cent more energy efficient than its predecessor.

This is very intriguing. The Oracle vs. Google Java/Android battle has had the very first Google phone design revealed — and boy it was ugly, but interesting in the time it was created, which was 5 years ago. The phone was to have a 200MHz chip, 64MB of RAM and ROM, a miniSD card, 2-megapixel camera with a dedicated shutter button and a non-touch-enabled QVGA display. Good specs in those days, but a far cry from the Android of today. Via: 
At least according to Michael Larabel of Phoronix. He was flown out to Valve headquarters yesterday, and 
So, Apple and Co. has made a massive $39.2 billion profit, netting $11.6 billion of those profits. In detail, there is $12.30 earnings per share, compared to an estimated $10.04 earnings per share, adding up to the $39.2 billion in revenue and $11.6 billion in pure profit by selling 35.1 million iPhone units sold alongside 11.8 million new iPads (keep in mind the iPad has been out for only a fortnight), with iPods continually going down, with 7.7 million units sold, representing a 15% decline from the same quarter last year. Oh, and 4 million Macs. Exceptional business.
In a tweet by the Building Windows 8 Twitter account comes the news that Windows 8 Release Preview is inbound this June. Its features are unknown, and its purpose probably just to improve upon what the Dev and Consumer previews offered before, but if Microsoft is consistently developing Windows 8, then it only seems about right that it would launch by the expected month of October.
Quantal Quetzal. Get used to more than just the bird now. It has been decided that for Ubuntu, by far the most popular open-source operating system against closed operating systems like Mac and Windows is going to have a successor after Precise Pangolin, which launches this Thursday. And yes, you’re totally on the ball here: there are some weird names for Ubuntu operating systems. Quantal Quetzal will have as October 18th as its proper release day, with the first alpha scheduled to land on June 7th and the first beta on September 6th. Joy of joys, indeed.
Oh, it’s an HTC DROID Incredible 4G LTE. Indeed, it is one of the longer names available for an Android 4.0 with Sense 4 phone, but despite that annoying factor, there is a 1.2GHz dual-core processor with 1 gigabyte of RAM, a mainstream 4-inch super LCD qHD display, a single 8-megapixel rear-facing camera with a VGA camera on the front, plus LTE hotspot mode with support for up to 10 devices and Beats Audio on board for that purported “studio-quality sound.” It costs a full $299.99 on contract, but the purchase link currently redirects to another Droid device, so that for now, it’ll have to wait.
Hmph.
