LG’s G Vista is one of the most leaked smartphones ever to hit the market. We’ve already seen a full list of specifications, software screenshots, benchmark results, body shots and an estimated launch date — so it comes as no surprise that Verizon has today unwrapped the latest, affordable, super-sized handset to join its rapidly-growing lineup of LTE-enabled devices.

Pebble AppStore

Pebble is currently in the midst of pushing out an essential stability update for it’s official Pebble Companion application via the Google Play Store.

Today’s selection for our weekly Wednesday’s Must Have Game column is called World at Arms and originally launched for Android back in 2013. The title has since been named as one of the best action-based games on the market and just two months ago it surpassed 20,000,000 downloads with over 250,000 five-star ratings. Now that’s pretty impressive.

Z3 Compact

Sony’s yet-to-be announced flagship smartphone of 2014, the Xperia Z3, is expected to be unveiled this September during the annual IFA conference in Berlin, however, it looks like there may be another device adding to the line-up, as we’re now starting to see initial signs that a scaled-down variant is also in the works. Earlier today, a series of leaked images surfaced on a Chinese social networking website, allegedly showcasing the smaller handsets design.

Google-Now-cards

Google is currently in the process of quietly rolling out a server-side update for its official Search application via the Play Store. Once updated, users have the ability to retrieve orientational information whilst holidaying or taking a trip, based on the location of their hotel. They can say, for example, ‘show me restaurants near my hotel’ and ‘how do I get back to my hotel,’ without actually having to mention the name of the hotel or its address — providing their confirmation email is in their Gmail inbox.
