Android Jelly Bean lands on Samsung Galaxy S4, S4 Mini from Canadian carriers

Android Central reported that the Android 4.3 Jelly Bean update is finally making its way to Samsung Galaxy S4 and S4 Minis from Bell, TELUS and Rogers. Just watch for the 790MB update to hit your device soon. There will be visual refreshes for a few menus and icons and it will now include support for the Galaxy Gear watch.

Correction: I apologize for the error. We meant Android Jelly Bean instead of KitKat.

First look at the Huawei Ascend P6

By Gadjo Cardenas Sevilla

We've seen a number of Huawei devices this year. Ranging from clearly entry level smartphones to an interesting challenger to the the supersized-handset market.

The Ascend P6 is an ultra-slim and premium smartphone that is impressively put together and shows just how formidable Huawei has become as a smartphone maker in a short span of time. 

The Ascend P6 is made out of brushed aluminum with a stainless steel bezel which likely incorporates the antennas. It features a bright 4.7-inch display, a 1.5Ghz quad core processor, 2GB of RAM, Android 4.2.2 and a sizeable 2000mAh battery. It is clever enough to incorporate its own SIM card slot pin and while it comes with 8GB of onboard storage, it can easily be upgraded to 64GB via microSD card expansion.

Huawei’s current flagship smartphone is available in Canada at WIND – at 6.18 mm slim, it is the thinnest phone available in Canada right now and a sign of great things to come from Huawei. 

Tamagotchis to make a comeback

Remember those little virtual pets from the ‘90s? Well, you can get a piece of ‘90s nostalgia by around fall next year. Gizmodo reported that Bandai plans to relaunch the game as Tamagotchi Friends and would probably sell around US$20. Now, you can give your kids a piece of your past and make sure to remind them to feed and bathe your Tamagotchis.

Microsoft updates SkyDrive for iOS with photo auto-upload

Microsoft just released an update for its SkyDrive iOS app to add automatic uploading for photos on the iOS platform. This was previously just available for Windows Phone users but now you can do so with your iOS device. It won’t be automatically available but you will be prompted when the update is installed. You can choose to turn on video backup as well. The Verge reported that the app will upload all photos in your camera roll once you enable the feature for the first time.
