For android users and those who use chrome there's a lot of new updates rolling out from Google. Here's some noticeable ones.

Hangouts messaging available through chromeLink

App Data syncing. - Play game on a mobile then continue from the same spot on tablet(pretty sure ios has this)

Notifications synchronization - Swipe away a notification on one device and it will be be already swiped away on other android devices.

Google Now on Chrome - You can talk to your pc through you microphone just by saying "Okay Google" http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/15/google-conversational-sea…

Google Drive - Drive now has 15GB instead of 5GB

Samsung Galaxy S4 with Pure Android - Only available in the USA for $649. Pretty much a Nexus devices with removable battery and microsd slot and the other S4 hardware specs.

Google+ Updates - Heaps of new updates to pretty much everything, new UI and photo enhancements and features

    the S4 with pure android looks great! shame it's not coming to aus :(

      You could import it, right? Assuming it runs on our networks..

      Or maybe a ROM that can be flashed to standard SGS4?

      • ozhunter on 17/05/2013 - 02:55

        I guess it's more for those who don't flash root or flash custom roms, then again most of those people would probably want the original S4.

    Notification sync is my most eagerly awaited. As simple as it sounds, it makes absolute sense to somebody using a nexus phone and tablet.

    • ozhunter on 16/05/2013 - 08:14

      That and the new hangouts are the most welcomed features imo.

    The app data syncing is well overdue. It was rather annoying having to take two hours to finish Contre Jour just so I could do a factory reset of my phone.
