An unidentified NVIDIA gadget (P5270) passed through the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) earlier today. Information and sketches included in the filing documentation shows that we could possibly be looking at an updated model of the chipmaker’s Tegra 4-powered Shield handheld gaming device.

Two weeks ago, a well-known leaker announced on his social networking sites that LG’s latest flagship smartphone, the G3, would launch on Verizon in the United States later this year, and earlier today an FCC filing was published confirming that the forthcoming handset is, indeed, compatible with Big Red’s LTE bands.

Google is in the midst of pushing out a much-anticipated compatibility update for it’s official Hangouts application via the Google Play Store. In terms of added functionality, this upgrade brings support for ‘hidden contacts’ and new notification settings, in addition to a handful of bug fixes, stability improvements and speed optimizations.

The leaked import document.

We’re starting to see initial signs suggesting that LG is currently in the process of developing a scaled-down variant of its latest flagship smartphone. Earlier today, the G3 Mini appeared in a leaked document posted on an Indian import and export data logging website. Unfortunately, the paperwork doesn’t reveal too much about the handset’s pricing and availability, but it does shed some light on the specifications that we’re likely to see when the device eventually breaks cover.

Earlier today, an unannounced Samsung smartphone passed through South Korea’s official certification authority — the RRA (Radio Research Agency). Information included in the brief filing documentation reveals that we could potentially be looking at the upcoming Galaxy S5 Prime (SM-G906) — a revamped model of the company’s flagship smartphone of 2014.
