We had our doubts over the Galaxy S7’s support for USB-C, and now new images have confirmed Samsung won’t be adopting the new standard just yet. Instead, the South Korean company’s latest flagship will use micro-USB — but is that a bad thing?

Sony has confirmed that it will bring Android 6.0 Marshmallow to its latest Xperia Z5 series handsets next month. Its rollout will begin on March 7, and customers in the U.K. will be the first to see it.

The Xperia Z4 Tablet and Xperia Z3+ are also on the company’s update list for March.

Google takes a leaf out of Samsung’s marketing playbook in its latest Android ad, with a subtle swipe at Apple and the lack of choice you get when you choose iOS.

“Monotune” is part of the company’s “Be together. Not the same.” campaign, and it’s nothing short of brilliant.

Gmail’s spam protection and intuitive message organization features make it one of the best email providers around, and now you can get it all without a Gmail address.

Google is making it possible to “Gmailify” third-party mail services so you get the best of what Gmail has to offer without losing your existing address.

Android has long been the best platform for smartphone buyers on a budget, and now entry to Google’s ecosystem is even more affordable.

Indian handset maker Ringing Bells just launched the new Freedom 251, an ultra affordable device that looks a lot like an iPhone, priced at 251 rupees — or about $3.67.
