Apple announced iOS 6 at its WWDC keynote on Monday, and there was lots to talk about. So much so, in fact, that the company’s executives couldn’t cover everything, and developers with access to the iOS 6 beta have been finding all sorts of things since. Now, there’s a crowd-sourced list charting every and any change.
Meet the Orange San Diego, a new Android phone that’s exclusive to the network. It’s the final, shipping name of the Orange Santa Clara phone that we profiled back in February. While we normally like to stress that it’s the software that counts these days, and not the hardware, it’s the silicon inside this phone that’s significant.
You see, this is the first phone in Europe to ever sport an Intel chip. The big beast of desktop computing has finally persuaded somebody to use its new mobile chip, so there’s a lot riding on this smartphone. Let’s take a look.
The Sony Xperia Miro? Sorry folks, that Sony Facebook teaser that went live earlier this week was not for the all-singing, all-dancing Xperia GX super phone. Enough people “Liked” the teaser for Sony to whip the covers off, and instead we’ve got a mid-range Android smartphone doubtless destined for Pay As You Go.
It’s not all bad though: based on the official video, it looks like there’s some new, tight integration with Facebook on a par with Apple’s iOS 6.
Last month, we kicked off an ace new competition to give away an Xbox 360 and a copy of the brand new DiRT Showdown, along with a wireless steering wheel. If you didn’t enter though, fret not: there’s still a little over a week to go before the closing date so you’ve got time to enter. And entering is easy: just head over to the competition page, check the terms and conditions and share your tie breaker with the world. Good luck!
Euro 2012 is in full swing now, and while we’ve seen some exciting games already, perhaps the most remarkable thing is that it’s actually the first chance UEFA has really had to demonstrate its mobile skills at a big tournament.
After all, the last competition, Euro 2008, came to an end a fortnight before Apples’ phenomenally successful App Store for iOS launched. As the first games got underway, we went behind the scenes to see how the app came together.
Everyone loves a bit of real life Portal, but until now, that’s largely been limited to companion cubes made out of cake. Upping the ante somewhat is filmmaker Jason Craft, whose amazing vision of how a Portal gun might work in real life is going viral today. Read on to see it.
