    After Nexus One the latest device to be denied ICS shows that not even dual-core handsets are immune, with LG posting that it will not distribute an Ice Cream Sandwich update to the less-than-a-year-old Optimus 2X. Now, admittedly, LG hasn't had a stellar reputation for getting updates to the 2X, but it's hard to get past hearing that a dual-core Android will be soon be left behind. When the Optimus 2X first arrived in a world of single-core phones, it probably seemed like a great way to future-proof: "sure, I don't really need that kind of processing power now, but you never know what next year's software will need; better just make the investment now." LG revealed the 2X's fate on Facebook, responding to a user's direct question about the phone's future with Ice Cream Sandwich. It stated, "we will not be introducing Android 4.0, Ice Cream Sandwich updates on LG Optimus 2X P990." Edit : LG now backtracks and denies the statement, calling them "rumors".

    Ice Cream Sandwich Can Make Your Android Into a Gaming Console Thanks to Engadget, we're reminded of the perks yet again, as Google framework engineer Romain Guy notes that the Ice Cream Sandwich update (also known as Android 4.0) retains Honeycomb's USB game controller compatibility. That means you can play your Android with a PS3, Xbox 360, or whatever USB controller you have with little more than a USB-to-micro-USB bridge adapter. But what might be the ultimate game changer is that Android 4.0 also supports HDMI playback, meaning that you can plug your Android device into your TV and have an instant gaming console experience. Although Guy specifically touts the Samsung Galaxy Nexus for the functionality, you can definitely expect people to continue packing gaming controllers with their other Samsung-, Asus-, or Sony-branded tablets and phones. It looks like the battle between Apple and Google in mobile gaming just got a bit more interesting.

    Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich includes native support for smartphones and tablets with a digital stylus Google has confirmed, including pressure recognition, hover tracking and nib-tilt, with differentiation between pen and finger use. Endless possibilities for devs
  21. ^ ^ ^ the specs are not much different - it even runs on same Tegra 2 chip. Galaxy R seems to be having the better screen (though pixel density is lower).
  22. Samsung Mobile’s Product site has outed the Samsung Galaxy S II or S2 variant for the Sprint Nextel, the Samsung Galaxy S II Epic 4G Touch. According to specs reveled as of now , the Sprint Nextel Samsung Galaxy S II Epic 4G Touch will sport a bumped up 4.52-inch Super AMOLED Plus screen instead of the original 4.3-inch size, 1.2 GHz dual-core processor under the hood, an 8-megapixel camera, 2-megapixel front-facing camera, Android 2.3 with Samsung's TouchWiz 4.0 UI and 4G network speed, which is the WiMax connectivity (not relevant in Indian shores). Unlike the original Samsung Epic 4G, the Touch doesn’t have a physical QWERTY keyboard. This might be a deal-breaker for some users as many people still prefer the hardware keyboard over the touch screen.

    ICS largely improves your phone's security - now you will be able to fully encrypt your ICS device. This means that all your data will be on lockdown, inaccessible even to you until you enter in the passcode or personal identification number. There are many Photon users in the forum!
