Andy Rubin Leaves Android, Google Now Leaked for iOS, Windows Phone 9 & More - Pocketnow Daily

2013-03-13
huge shakeups and Android leadership as Andy Rubin moves on we've got Microsoft already bringing Windows Phone 9 testing and Google now makes its purse lead appearance on iOS I'm Raymond Rivera if you're wondering why beer is not free well it's kind of cheap in my country this is out daily well that's the normal thing for operating systems to be tested a long time before they actually get launched and such as the case of Windows Phone 9 is apparently it is being tested at the moment on current generation hardware obviously in preparation for newer generation hardware in the future and it's kind of interesting since Microsoft usually announces everything first and then actually works on it but this time they're doing things right so go to see you Microsoft let's hope we will see Windows Phone armed with something really compelling by the end of the year speaking of Windows Phone for those of you that were left curious about the Nokia Lumia 928 that was leaked yesterday the first metallic Lumia to reach the Verizon network well we have the first photograph of this phone and it does look very crisp a la Nokia Lumia 920 so we are expecting a flagship to make it to Verizon very soon though obviously we don't have any dates so far sadly the photo was pulled but we have it for you obviously so stay tuned on more rumors now let's move over to Google glass we know that that's either the best thing to happen to tech in the next couple of years or the biggest and most expensive gimmick we've ever seen and as it stands well we have seen a presentation in South by Southwest of Google glass actually integrating with Android applications an example is you take a photo and then you do the simple things on blast but then you do the more complex things on your phone like editing the photo on Android it's actually a really compelling feature but we do hope that they figure out that $1,500 price tag in the future now let's go through some more Google s Google now the crown jewel of jellybean has apparently leaked for iOS yes there was a YouTube video recently showing off how it works on the iPhone and iPad and even desktop computers so it does make you wonder I mean it's actually cool to have Google now on iOS devices though it's going to be kind of awkward to actually have to launch an application for that to work but still what can we expect from Android five at the crown jewel of jellybean is going to iOS it's got to be something awesome and it's gotta be better or at least cheaper than Google glass and finally to be oh wow news of the day there has been a big shake-up and leadership and Android in Google obviously where Andy Rubin which was not only the VP but actually the founder designer and pretty much maker and father of Android is now moving on to another department within Google and well the Google Chrome VP is now going to take over as the head of Android and it makes you wonder I mean Chrome OS hasn't really take off as well as Android and then we have the Chromebook pixel which is actually the most expensive gimmick in history after obviously Google glass you'd wonder what's going to go on with Android and that leads me to the question of the day are you happy or sad about this move from Andy Rubin historically it has never worked meaning when Steve Jobs got fired from Apple it went downhill and then when that cool again from Palm was either fired or moved on well the palm actually went dead and we've historically known of different cases where when the father of any project moves on nothing actually works but hey we could see an exception for the first time even though the Chromebook pixel doesn't really give me a good vibe so leave us a comment down below what do you think of course for an earlier school if everything is happening in the smartphone and tablet oversee follow us on Parker now Todd comment subscribe to our youtube channel as well please give this video a thumbs up if you like what you saw I'm Jaime Rivera thanks for watching and see you tomorrow in our live hangout for everything galaxy s4 ah the galaxy s4 this is one of the most anticipated smartphones of the year and it's also one of Samsung's best-kept secrets we've been trying to find leaks of this device for the longest time it's still we don't have much to talk about so join us on Thursday March 14th at 7 p.m. Eastern Time as we will have a full hangout happening live we will also have brandon minimun and michael fisher at the event and Adam Lane will also be at Times Square in New York City covering everything that happens live so join us again on our YouTube channel you will see links on our website as soon as this happens so see you there
