The Android Overload is where we feature the biggest news stories from throughout the day (see above video), as well as stash all of the stories/articles/news bits that didn’t make it onto our front page. But just because they weren’t featured doesn’t mean they aren’t worth taking a look at. In fact, there’s almost always a little something here for everyone. So, take a look around and let us know if you find anything of interest.

“Google Trends shows Galaxy brand trumps Android in terms of consumer awareness.”
I bet there are plenty of hot heads at Samsung thinking they could dump Android at this point. Hey, here’s a good buyer for Blackberry.
prob also why they’re trying to shift to their own os tizen
No biggie, but the “New slimmed down Raspberry Pi model hits Europe with $25 price tag” story is missing a corresponding link.
All I saw was Borderlands 2 and I clicked. Great game! :D
