HTC One X to receive update

slide-2-white News just in from HTC that the HTC One X is to receive its next firmware update today. This latest update will take the device to Android 4.0.4 (ICS) putting it on par with it’s arch-nemesis, the Galaxy S3.

HTC also state that there will be improvements to the Sense experience. I’ll be checking for updates on my One X shortly and will report back with findings!

HTC’s full statement:

As part of our ongoing commitment to ensure customers are receiving software updates that improve their user experience, we are pleased to announce our next upgrade for the HTC One X will be released on August 10th.

The primary update will include an upgrade to Android version 4.0.4 (Ice Cream Sandwich), in addition to an improved Sense experience which will: enable the ability to map menu function to the ‘recent app’ key (improving visual presentation in non ICS apps like Facebook); improve tab management in the browser with a dedicated tab switching button and enhance camera capabilities such as white balance and continuous autofocus.  Furthermore, customers can expect enhancements to memory, platform stability and the overall browsing experience. Other improvements include a Single Sign-On for Facebook allowing user access across applications and browsers and upgrades to Beats audio, which reflect our dedication to providing an authentic sound experience.

From a developer perspective, we are expanding SDK support for Media Link and providing a framework for video call applications to achieve improved performance and quality.

BlackBerry Music Gateway Unboxing Video

BBMusic_Gateway_02-e1338877766306

If you use a BlackBerry 7 and love your music device the Music Gateway may well be your perfect accessory. We first saw the device at BlackBerry World back in May of this year but the gadget is now on sale in North America and I presume the UK launch will happen at any time as RIM sent me one.

Essentially you connect the BlackBerry Music Gateway to your sound system and then pair your BlackBerry smartphone with it via NFC. Your BlackBerry then acts as a remote control and streams your music from your phone – simple.

  • Connections Made Simple – Using NFC, simply tap your NFC enabled BlackBerry to connect to the BlackBerry Music Gateway, or connect via standard Bluetooth for universal connectivity of any Bluetooth enabled device such as smartphones, tablets and computers

  • Enjoy Wireless Freedom – Stream music from your BlackBerry smartphone, BlackBerry PlayBook, or any other Bluetooth enabled device. BlackBerry Music Gateway connects to any existing home stereo equipment or car stereo using the RCA or 3.5mm cables included in the box

  • Wireless Remote Control – Use your device as the remote for complete control of playback, track changes, and volume.

  • Multitasking – Access other applications or surf the web while playing music. Music automatically pauses when an incoming phone call is received and continues when the call is ended without skipping a beat.

You can see the quick unboxing video below:
