- Sprint’s Epic Touch 4G may be first US-bound Galaxy S II, arriving September 9th?
Samsung is expected to unveil its US Galaxy S II lineup on August 29th, and if you have that date highlighted on your calendar for that very reason, this rumor will likely turn you ancy for the next ten days. We’re hearing from SprintFeed that the Samsung Epic Touch 4G, Sprint’s variant of the upcoming device, may win the race to market by launching on September 9th. It’s no surprise that the Now Network would beat T-Mobile, given whisperings that the Samsung Hercules won’t make it to stores until October 26th, but we’re still unsure of when to expect Big Red and Ma Bell. Regardless of if this report is accurate, the next two months are still gearing up to be rather exciting, wouldn’t you say?Sprint’s Epic Touch 4G may be first US-bound Galaxy S II, arriving September 9th? originally appeared on Engadget on Fri, 19 Aug 2011 17:44:00 EDT.

- The Engadget Interview: HP’s Stephen DeWitt discusses the state of webOS
The last time we spoke with Stephen DeWitt, the head of HP’s webOS global business unit was on the defensive about the TouchPad. In spite of — or perhaps because of — the anticipation of the device, the first webOS tablet received a lukewarm reception at hands of reviewers. DeWitt vigorously defended the slate against the critics, suggesting that technology writers had been approaching the product the wrong way. A lot has happened since that conversation, of course, including reports of unmoved stock and, more significantly, yesterday’s news that HP would effectively be discontinuing production on its webOS devices, the TouchPad included.
There’s been a good deal of confusion around precisely what yesterday’s announcement means for both the company and the mobile operating system that it picked up with its purchase of Palm back in April of last year. In spite of his understandably packed schedule, DeWitt sat down with us to set the record straight and shed some light on the future of webOS — a future both he and the company remain rather optimistic about.
Read on for the full interview.

- Motorola’s XT531 hits the FCC, ready for its US crossover
Motorola’s XT531 has gone through more name changes than a certain rapper-cum-vodka shilling mogul, and the trend might continue as it makes its way to the US. The budget-friendly handset, known as the Fire XT in Europe and the Spice XT in Latin America, has just surfaced at the FCC toting AT&T-compatible GSM bands, UMTS / HSDPA 850MHz / 1900MHz support, WiFi and Bluetooth. Based on Moto’s official PR for the handset’s Chinese release, we know this 3.5-incher also sports a front-facing VGA / 5 megapixel rear camera, and is set to launch with Android 2.3 onboard. With Google’s newest pal clearly chasing after heat-related naming conventions, we expect to see this one launch with an equally caliente moniker.

Rumor: Samsung is working on triple-folding tablet for next year
Initial reports claimed that Samsung’s first dual foldable will arrive this year. However, GizmoChina and leakster Yogesh contradict this info, saying that the actual launch will take place in the first three months of 2022. The more interesting bit of this leak is that the device in question will be Samsung’s first foldable tablet – Galaxy Z Fold Tab. Devices like the Galaxy Z Fold2 already blur the line with tablets with its 7.6” display, but the Tab will be even bigger. It makes sense that a triple foldable will be a tablet. Current models are already on the large side even when...
Motorola teases Moto G60 and Moto G40 Fusion key features
Motorola has been teasing the Moto G60 and Moto G40 Fusion on its Instagram profile, and today it has finally revealed some of the key specs of the duo. The two new smartphones share a Snapdragon 732G chipset and a massive 6.8” screen with HDR10 support and 120Hz refresh rate.

The other two members of the triple-cam setups on the back are identical and so is the selfie camera inside a punch hole at the front. The...
