With the release of Android 4.0, iOS users can no longer boast of supremacy in the appearance and functionality. Many developers have started to adopt the style of Ice Cream Sandwich and transform applications into true splendor. Applications that I will present here you won’t be found in store. At least not yet.

Holo Pad is an application for quick notes. It was designed to be noticed because of its simplicity. You will not find hidden menus, in fact you will not find menus, just the setting that provides updates and a link to the XDA Developers dedicated topic. Since Holo Pad Store is not available, you can update using the dedicated only. Otherwise, you have the button to add a note after you complete the fields you can press back to see the note automatically saved.

Holo Music is an application to acoustic play, with a very attractive interface and options that I would like to see on more such alternatives. Working with the music player is a pleasure, everything is arranged using a system of tabs that you access with ease. The application uses integrated musical effects in Android 4.0 to give a 3D equalizer options and Bass Boost effects. The main screen displays album art in large format and provides quick shortcuts playback modes. Very interesting is the option to share the name of any song you listen through social networking. Settings reveals the power of these applications. We can customize gestures to change tracks and when your screen is turned down, music is automatically stopped. We provide a menu of topics, but they have not been finalized yet. Then we customize the interface and animations, or set the album cover as wallpaper on the main screen.

You probably know that HTC One X from Europe has a U.S. version called HTC One XL, which brings LTE support and a new processor. HTC has replaced the Nvidia Tegra processor quad-core 3 with a dual core Snapdragon S4 as Tegra 3 does not support the LTE standard from AT&T. Well now it seems Nvidia comes up with a solution: Tegra 3+.

Through the new Tegra 3 upgrade, NVIDIA will offer a rival for  Qualcomm processor, but also one that supports AT&T LTE standard and beyond. This processor is codenamed Grey and arrives at the market throughout this year. Michael Rayfield, general manager of the section NVIDIA Tegra Mobile said that although Tegra 3+ will arrive by the end of the year, integration of LTE will be received at the beginning of 2013. The good news is that you do not have to wait to have a mobile with Tegra 4 performance, but also with support for the latest connectivity.

It will be interesting that Samsung launch the long-awaited Galaxy S III or a quad core Exynos that supports LTE still a blow to Nvidia, especially since Exynos’s ready to go to other producers. An example is Meizu, which will launch a phone with a quad core CPU Exynos. Will Samsung start to count as largest manufacturer of processors at the expense of Qualcomm, Nvidia and even Intel?

Those from Gizmodo.com published two images with a Smartphone that could be the future Samsung Galaxy S III. You can admire below and I will try to present some reasons why this terminal can’t be the long-awaited phone from Samsung. And if you wonder why the pictures below look so bad, note that are made with an iPad.

If we rely on rumors so far, the next top model from Samsung will have ceramic housing. It could be similar with HTC One S but in black version. Although this phone has a matt casing, there is some degree of light reflection. At least we are not talking about shiny black plastic. Home button below the screen would confirm rumors in recent weeks. Although Samsung Galaxy S III is running Android 4.0, the manufacturer would not give up that fizic button.

The probability that it is Galaxy S III is reduced because it is an ugly phone. The forms are really simple, but I don’t think that Samsung would launch something like this to represent their top phones. And if we go in this direction, let’s talk about the other information published. Korean manufacturer seems to have sent several prototypes of Galaxy S III to various operators in the world for testing. These prototypes were built in other cases than that to be officially launched. Apple used the same strategy before launching the iPhone 4. The phone was disguised as iPhone 3Gs to avoid attracting attention when it was used in actual tests.

Fortunately, the wait will not last long. Samsung Galaxy S III, with quad core Exynos processor integrated into a chipset, will be presented soon at an event in early May.

HTC wanted to remind everyone that supports products Beats by Dre, company that was bought last year by the One series manufacturer. Recently there were rumors that HTC would reduce involvement of Beats technology in their audio products, with the change of its CFO.

You should know that Winston Yung, HTC CFO was replaced with Chia-Lin Chang, and rumors have emerged because Yung was an important element in HTC investment in Beats and when they move into another position, it was possible that the importance of audio segment dissapear. CEO Peter Chou has denied such rumors, saying that media speculation is unfounded and that the progress made by HTC and Beats together is clear that brands are already seen as a whole.

Notice that phones from One series have Beats branding on them and such audio technology, and this indicates that this cooperation continues without problems. A few weeks ago I was informing you that the Taiwanese phone manufacturer will not make Beats headphones bundled with its terminals and behold, before the information was true, at least for One series. It remains to see what will bring the future HTC models.
