Watch today's Pocketnow Daily as we talk about how the iPhone currently dominates the smartphone market in the US. We then talk about Samsung's surprising launch of a black-edition Galaxy S 4, though with some setbacks. Then we talk about Microsoft, its possible new CEO, and even a new Chairman to replace Bill Gates as well. Google is next as we talk about the company's plans to still build a smartwatch, aside from Asus and Acer. We end today's show talking about how Lenovo's CEO claims that his company can defeat Apple and Samsung with the purchase of Motorola. All this and more after the ...

Word of Lenovo's Motorola deal is still so very new that we're not quite used to thinking about Motorola as something other than a Google company – even if that role itself is also comparatively new. Despite the recent changes, we've already found ourselves talking about what might be next for Motorola, including the idea that the company might end up producing a Nexus device (and one of the very last, if we're to believe those rumors). For the longest time following Google's own acquisition, we discussed how Motorola was still working through its old pipeline of devices, releasing ...

When you can kick off a tech podcast with a string of expletives taken right from your publication's teamwide chat records, you know it's been a crazy week in the news. The Lenovo Motorola deal, announced late yesterday afternoon, threw our whole week -and perhaps our whole world- into disarray, and we're grateful for the chance to sit down and talk it through on today's show. But the news doesn't stop there. Galaxy S 5 speculation is still coming fast and furious, with details like Samsung's rumored fingerprint scanner beginning to take shape; we're starting to catch wind of Nokia's plans ...

Reacting to yesterday’s news of Lenovo's acquisition of Motorola's smartphone business from Google has felt a bit like going through our own five stages of grief. We've had shock, confusion, rationalization, and maybe even acceptance. In the time that's followed we've learned some more specifics of the arrangement, like what it would mean for Motorola's modular Project Ara design, and now we have the opportunity to get some answers straight form the horse's mouth, as a couple Lenovo execs sat down with The Wall Street Journal to discuss the purchase. Once again, Lenovo delivers ...

We're still reeling a little bit from this evening's wholly unexpected news of Lenovo acquiring Motorola's smartphone business from Google. Shortly after first hearing it as a rumor, confirmation swiftly arrived, and we've had some time since to reflect on just what all this means. One question that we noticed popping up quite a bit in your comments following this news has been what this sale might mean for Motorola's Project Ara, that cool modular design that may just change how we look at smartphone hardware. In what sounds like good news, Ara will be sticking with Google, rather than ...

So far, the news today has been no stranger to whiskey tango foxtrot moments, like that unexpected rumor that Samsung could be taking a major step back from its heavily customized, own-app-laden take on Android in favor of a more Google-driven look. But that might have nothing on this next bizarre tale, as reports come in that Lenovo is finalizing a deal that would make it the new owner of Motorola Mobility, buying the company from Google. Motorola only just started showing a new side to its lineup last summer with the release of the Moto X, and it's shocking to think that it could be ...

For a company that tends not to dominate mobile industry headlines, Lenovo sure has been putting forth a pretty respectable spread of hardware over the course of the last six months or so. That's included some oddballs, like a non-convertible-tablet Android laptop, but also some very compelling devices like the ThinkPad 8. On the smartphone front, the Vibe Z was probably the most interesting of the company's offerings, sporting a 5.5-inch 1080p display and Snapdragon 800 SoC. Today, we're looking at where Lenovo might be working to take its smartphone lineup from here, and if some ...
