TalkAndroid_Weekly_Recap


We had another busy week at TalkAndroid so here’s a recap of all the top stories. The Nexus 5 and KitKat continued to be the hot topic this week, but there were still a lot of other juicy tidbits. HTC’s One successor is starting to leak and Motorola will unveil the Moto G this week. Google launched Helpouts and we finally know what those mystery barges are all about. The newest version of Hangouts was released bringing SMS/MMS support, but don’t expect to see the new Google Experience launcher on anything other than a Nexus 5 for the time being. It’s time to get caught up and get ready for another exciting week.
