Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 with AT&T friendly LTE receives the FCC’s approval Posted: 29 May 2013 09:22 AM PDT Not a fan of the Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 Wi-Fi only? Not to worry, as the opportunity to buy an LTE version could be coming soon. The FCC just gave their blessing on a version that includes an 850 /1900 GSM radio along with LTE bands 2, 4, 5, and 17 (all signs of hardware that plays well with AT&T’s network.) Now don’t get too excited yet, as the FCC’s approval doesn’t mean that it will be released or that AT&T will announce a carrier version. There is hope however, so hang on tight. We will make sure to update you as soon as we know more!

Leaked Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini specs suggest smaller, less powerful experience Posted: 29 May 2013 06:13 AM PDT The upcoming Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini should not only be smaller than the flagship experience, but it could also be less powerful as well. German tech site All About Samsung stumbled across some benchmarks which show the yet announced handset as having a Qualcomm dual-core Snapdragon 400 processor, 1.5GB RAM, an 8-megapixel rear camera, and 2.1-megapixel front-facing camera. Powered by Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean, the screen looks to be a 4.3-inch Super AMOLED display at 960×540 resolution. Just for the sake of comparison, the Samsung Galaxy S4 employs a quad-core Snapdragon 600 processor, 2GB of memory, a 5-inch display, and a 13-megapixel rear camera. Although Samsung has seemingly confirmed the Galaxy S4 Mini, it has been rather coy about the details. Presumably, Samsung announces the handset at the June 20 event.
