Watch today's Pocketnow Daily as we talk about how Samsung was lucky enough to be dropped almost $450 Million in damages in their Apple vs Samsung trial. Then we talk Nokia as we've got tons of rumors of an aluminum device code-name Catwalk, and we also have additional talks of a water proof lumia in the works. Sony is up next as that 4.8-inch 1080p device that we expected for MWC is now being rumored for the Summer. The FCC then gives us some good news as their chairman has confirmed that he'll look at the carrier unlock legal issues. We end today's news by talking about the thicker, ...

You might think that rules regarding carriers locking smartphones to their networks would be the kind of thing overseen by the FCC, but the way things currently work in the US, that provision is addressed by the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, with exemptions granted by the Library of Congress. After the last round of consideration removed protection for users interested in unlocking their phones, public outcry resulted in a successful petition to force the White House to discuss the issue. It turns out that FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski is interested, as well, citing concerns he has ...

Samsung's quest for world domination continues as they keep bringing additional products to US shores this holiday season. Obviously no product launch is legally allowed without the devices paying a visit to the FCC, for our leaked pleasure. This time we've got the Galaxy Note II variants for Sprint and US Cellular being exposed. These devices will most likely see the public light of day on Samsung's October 24th event, so get your wallets ready. Along with the phablets, Samsung also submitted two Android tablets, the SPH-P500 and SCH-i915, which apparently are variants of the Galaxy Tab 2 ...

As you can clearly see in the image above, the phone outlined on the left is exactly the phone pictured on the right, which means that the LG VS950 is indeed the LG Optimus VU -- or a variant of some sort. On this exact same note we can draw the conclusion that the LG VS950, aka LG Optimus VU, is heading to Verizon, at least according to FCC. There's no mention of the "Optimus VU" moniker though, but the filing reveals that the VS950 is packing NFC and LTE band 13 plus GSM 850/1900MHz compatibility. LG introduced its 4:3 aspect ratio phablet with the occasion of this year's MWC and the ...

In mid-April, we spotted an unknown Samsung Android in the Bluetooth SIG's device certification listings, model SCH-I200. After digging around a little, we pulled-up some benchmark results for the handset, which ended up providing a whole bunch of additional details on the phone. The model appeared to be getting ready for Verizon, and was referred to by codename Jasper. According to that data, it would arrive running a dual-core Snapdragon S4 and come equipped with Ice Cream Sandwich, yet would only a have a WVGA display, which sounds positively low-res compared to the other phones coming ...

The "Dinara" name is nothing unheard of as the Motorola handset has been long rumored since last year -- and later on tipped for AT&T. It is just recently that it came back in the news with recent rumors of AT&T getting ready to welcome the third generation Atrix to its line-up. As usual in this stage of things, the phone, codenamed MB886, has stopped by FCC, to show off its secrets among which LTE frequencies appropriate for AT&T compatibility. Not much else is revealed by the Commission's documents but we expect it to pack a 720p display, a 1.2GHz dual-core processor, ...
