It is no secret that Samsung have not been able to keep up with the production of their Exynos 5 Octa chipsets and processors. Only 30% of the Samsung Galaxy S4 smartphones sold had these processors, after all. For this reason, the rumour that Samsung may instead use the Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 to power their upcoming Samsung Galaxy Note III phablet sounds very likely. Performance benchmarks of Qualcomm's new Snapdragon 800 platform have been very good, so much so that they've overtaken Samsung's own Exynos 5 Octa.

After Google's recent surprise Nexus device unveiling of a Samsung Galaxy S4 Google Edition at Google I/O, quite a few smartphone makers are looking to do the same with their smartphones. HTC are no different as rumours are about that they are working on a similar HTC One Google Edition as well. Currently all HTC One smartphones use Android as the operating system with HTC's Sense UI layered on top of it. Opting for a HTC One Google Edition would mean this Sense UI being removed leaving the stock vanilla Android. Like all Nexus devices it would certainly mean faster updates from Google (which may or may not improve UltraPixel camera performance).

While the Samsung Galaxy S4 is currently one of the best smartphones in the market the fact that the Non-LTE enabled Samsung Galaxy S4 or I9500 was the only one available when it was released meant that they couldn't take advantage of 4G LTE connections in Malaysia. Worry not, as Maxis have recently revealed that the LTE-enabled Samsung Galaxy S4 or I9505 is coming soon. The price for the I9505 should not be any different from the I9500 and you can expect the smartphone to be available within the next few weeks.
