Farewell, Flappy Bird
By far the biggest and most bizarre news this week is the story of Flappy Bird. Over the past few months, the addictive indie game has exploded, overwhelming creator Dong Nguyen who removed the app from the Apple App Store this week. It's not entirely clear why Nguyen pulled the plug on his $50,000 a day app. It's a saga. via Gizmodo
Samsung's Next Galaxy
An image supposedly depicting Samsung's new Galaxy S5 was leaked this week. The image of the company's next flagship phone was released by a source with a reliable track record: he posted accurate images of Apple's iPad Air weeks before its launch. The Galaxy S5 is expected to debut on February 24 at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. via Business Insider
Android Powered Nokia
The Wall Street Journal reported that sources confirmed that Nokia will launch an Android powered device at the Mobile World Congress this month. Rumors that the Finnish company "has been two-timing Microsoft" have been circulating for months. via TechCrunch
More iPhone Gossip
Apple is rumored to be releasing two phones in September: one with a 4.7 inch screen and another with a 5.5 inch screen. Both phones are said to be thinner and lighter than the current iPhone 5S. The new smartphones will be made out of Sapphire crystal, a scratch resistant material. via Business Insider
