The day when we'll get to see the Samsung Galaxy S5
in the flesh is getting nearer and nearer. The phone could be announced
later this month, for that matter, as invitations for an Unpacked event
have already started to fly out. This upcoming event, however, isn't
likely to be staged like a Broadway show. Instead, what we're expecting
to witness is a short, low-key announcement. Rumor has it that multiple
variants of the Samsung Galaxy S5 will be launched, and that the phone
won't have any sci-fi-flick-inspired tech on it, so you can rule out
those eye scanner speculations.

Microsoft announced its new CEO last week. After 14 years of leading the
company, Steve Ballmer has been succeeded by Satya Nadella – former
vice president of Microsoft's Cloud and Enterprise group. "A big part of my job is to accelerate our ability to bring innovative products to our customers more quickly," Satya stated. He has yet to unveil any specific strategic plans that could shape the company's future, however.
