HTC Rezound finally receives an Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich update, available today

Were you one of the people that bought into the Beats branded HTC Rezound last year? Have you been waiting forever to get your hands on Ice Cream Sandwich? If you are this kind of person then we have good new for you. HTC and Verizon have finally released the Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich update to the HTC Rezound. This update is an OTA (over the air) update that brings Ice Cream Sandwich with the legacy Sense 3.6 skin. Do not worry if you do not get the update right now, because updates take a couple days to a week to reach everyone's Rezound. We are not sure of this, but we think that this update will bring some of the Ice Cream Sandwich features like face unlock, settings in the notification tray, etc. For those of you that do not know what the HTC Rezound is, it is a very nice handset that was the first U.S. carrier phone to have a 720p display, and it was the first U.S. phone with the Beats branding. We personally like the Rezound, because it has a great display, offers great performance, and comes with a fantastic pair of iBeats headphones that would regularly cost $100 on their own. The only negative thing about the Rezound is that it has bad battery life and is a little chubby. We are glad to finally see the Rezound get updated, and this update makes the handset still a great buy for consumers. Want more information on the Beats branded handset's update?

Review: The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water

It's 7:15 at night. The sun has been below the horizon for quite some time, but it is not yet my bedtime. I go to the cashier and ask her if they are showing my movie. She gives me a puzzled look, checks the queue, and luckily finds the tickets I am looking for. After asking my age she assures me that I have nothing to be ashamed about, nothing to fear. I then pass through the doors and embark on a journey I have been waiting for more than a decade to begin. Back in 2004 Nickelodeon, Stephen Hillenburg, & company released the very first feature film of the SpongeBob Squarepants franchise: The SpongeBob Squarepants Movie . The cartoon had been around for less than five years at the time, and many people did not expect much from its box office release. However, it did do very well for a television cartoon movie grossing more than $32 million opening weekend and receiving average scores of 66/100. This might sound mediocre compared to Oscar winning films, but this is incredib

Qualcomm debuts Snapdragon S4 Pro APQ8064 processor

Earlier today, Qualcomm unveiled their new Snapdragon S4 Pro APQ8064 processor on their developer tablet in San Francisco. This processor is the successor to the S4 processor that we see on many of today's flagship mobile devices (ex. HTC One X, American Samsung Galaxy S III's, HTC One S, Motorola Atrix HD, etc.), and is one of the greatest mobile chipsets on the market. Based on the scores we have seen from  Engadget , this new processor seems amazingly  fast. This new processor blows away the competition and beats every other mobile device you could imagine in every single benchmark category. This processor is like a Bugatti Veyron drag racing against a Smart Car. We can not explain how much faster this device is compared to the devices that are out right now. This new processor leaves every single top mobile product in the dust. The Snapdragon S4 Pro beats the AT&T HTC One X, all of the Samsung Galaxy S III's, the Nexus 7, the international HTC One X, and probably

Hands-On with the new Macbook: Too Hot

Hot damn. Apple just recently added a new laptop to their lineup. No it is not just an iterative spec update, but rather Apple positions this as the laptop of the future. Well, the future of now. They say your next laptop will be like this, and maybe even the one after that. The company wowed the world with the MacBook Air back in 2008, but can they do it again with the new MacBook? Most of you will hear "MacBook" and a few different laptops will pop into your head. There's the current MacBook Pros, MacBook Air, and then the old black and white plastic MacBooks that were discontinued in 2011. The 2015 MacBook is an entirely new beast. Apple is not pushing the boundaries on what a laptop is supposed to be, but they are pushing the limits in many other areas. The new MacBook comes in three colors: space grey, silver, and gold. The space grey looks exactly like the space grey on the iPhone, and the silver model is identical to the MacBook Air. But if you pick
