Just as the Samsung Galaxy S3 hype has started to die down, new rumors about the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 have erupted, and they suggest that the phone could be unveiled in August, followed by an October launch date.
Amazon got into the hardware game in 2007 with its popular e-book reader, the Kindle. Five years, three Kindle generations and a tablet later, the world's largest online retailer is reportedly building its first-ever smartphone to compete with Apple's iPhone and Google's Android platform.
Amazon.com Inc. (Nasdaq: AMZN), the No. 1 e-retailer, could be on the verge of selling its own smartphones which would be made by the same Taiwanese contractor used by Apple (Nasdaq: AAPL), the world's most valuable technology company, reports said.
Samsung?s flagship smartphone, the Galaxy S3, is expected to drive the company?s profits to $5.9 billion for the second quarter, according to Reuters. This means that profits will surge by 79 percent during Q2, and the company is predicted to ship 19 million units by the third quarter.

Apple is highly expected to release its sixth generation iPhone, presumably called the iPhone 5, at some point of time later this year and if ongoing rumors turn to be true, the handset will get major upgrade in terms of its current form factor.
Google Glasses are incredibly ambitious, but it appears that Google is no longer alone in exploring the avenue of wearable tech solutions. Apple was reportedly granted a patent on Tuesday in relation to peripheral treatment for head-mounted displays. Of all the companies to build a Project Glass rival, Google should worry most about Apple.
Take the iPad, the world's most popular tablet, and hit it with a shrink gun. Shoot down its $499 price tag, too, and that's exactly what officials, experts and analysts believe will be released later this year, likely around October. But Apple needs to nail the price on this. If the iPad Mini costs any more than $250, the company will have failed.
Apple (Nasdaq: AAPL), the world's most valuable technology company, may introduce a smaller version of the iPad to compete with products from Google (Nasdaq: GOOG), the No. 1 search engine, and Amazon.com Inc. (Nasdaq: AMZN), the No. 1 e-retailer and Microsoft (Nasdaq: MSFT), reports said.

Rumors surrounding a potential iPad mini have been fueled anew after members of Apple's supply chain in Asia told the Wall Street Journal that mass production for the tablet would begin in September.
Apple introduced some incredible new products and software at this year's WWDC -- the new Retina-powered MacBook Pro and iOS 6 were particular show-stealers -- but pro users felt specifically neglected at the event, where many were expecting Apple to refresh its entire Mac line-up. Unfortunately, despite a few spec bumps, the iMac and Mac Pro were largely untouched.
Despite an earlier dismissal of a 7-inch iPad by late Apple CEO Steve Jobs, rumors of an iPad mini have been around for quite some time now. Adding to the already churning rumor-mills, a new report surfaced Tuesday, saying that the Cupertino tech giant is indeed planning to launch a smaller and cheaper iPad by year-end.
Several Apple iPhone accessory companies have confirmed that a new 19-pin 'mini' connector is reportedly going to be included in the iPhone 5, meaning all your iPhone accessories are soon to be obsolete.
Slowly but surely, Apple's operating systems are converging, but bonding these two separate systems together would be impossible without iCloud. On Monday, Apple introduced two new additions to the iCloud Beta portal for iOS 6 developers, including the Notes and Reminders apps, before it releases Mountain Lion this month and iOS 6 this fall.
Samsung?s Galaxy S3, the company?s flagship smartphone for 2012, is giving Apple?s iPhone some stiff competition overseas. In the UK, iPhone sales have seen a decrease following the Galaxy S3?s May release date, the Financial Times reported.
The wait is finally over for people in the U.S. who were looking forward to Samsung's latest flagship smartphone, the Galaxy S3. Sprint made the handset available for in-store purchases from July 1, while AT&T announced that it would be selling the phone in its stores from July 6. But if a recent note by one industry analyst is to be believed, it won't be an easy road for this successor of the S2.
Apple is set to unveil a 7.85-inch iPad mini, alongside the iPhone 5 in October, according to a Pacific Crest research analyst.

Apple will begin transitioning the leadership role within its hardware engineering department, now that Bob Mansfield has announced his retirement. Apple was quick to name Dan Riccio as Mansfield's successor, mentioning that Riccio will learn the new role over several months. During that time, the hardware engineering team will continue to report to Mansfield.
Many industry analysts have predicted that Apple may face a drop in sales of iPhones, ahead of the release of its next generation iPhone, aka iPhone 5, later this year. But the slowdown in iPhone sales will be short-lived, thanks to the expected high demand for the new iPhone model, which will continue to dominate the smartphone market throughout 2013, according to an analyst's report.
