There's good news for anyone rocking a Samsung Galaxy Note 3, as reports say the Android 4.4 KitKat update has started to roll out for the super-sized smartphone.

The news comes via SamMobile, which claims that Android 4.4.2 has shown up on Galaxy Note 3 devices in Poland, with users having to update their handsets via Samsung's Kies desktop software.

Over the air updates are yet to be confirmed, but it's highly likely that Samsung will push the update out over the wireless medium as well.

Fingers crossed

We're hoping that the Android 4.4 build will be more stable than Samsung's Android 4.3 upgrade, with numerous users reporting issues when attempting to sync their handsets to Microsoft's services.

For those of you outside Poland you'll still have to wait for the update - unless you want to dabble with the leaked firmware, but we don't recommend that - but hopefully it won't be too long until KitKat hits Note 3 handsets worldwide.

We have contacted Samsung for more information on its Android KitKat plans, and we'll update this article once we hear back.

• When will your phone get Android KitKat?

The iPhone has never been a serious contender when it comes to the megapixel race, and according to the latest rumours, the iPhone 6 won't be throwing any bigger punches in the numbers game.

Word from the China Post, quoting a tip from the country's Nomura Security, claims that the next iPhone won't jump to a 12- or 16-megapixel sensor as predicted.

The report says that the iPhone 6 will instead adopt the same 8-megapixel camera but will improve optical image stabilisation.

Focus, focus, focus

This is backed up by a newly-published patent application made by Apple for optical image stabilisation and improved autofocus for its iPhone camera.

According to the patent, Apple's plan is to use "voice coil motor actuators" that will move then lens about around the optical axis.

Apple's focus on improving the quality of its pictures rather than just increasing their size has done it a lot of favours so far - so while 8 megapixels might sound disappointing, we still have plenty of faith.

• We're gradually putting together the pieces of the iPhone 6 puzzle

Scarlett Johannson voices a more advanced version of Siri in her new film Her, and Apple's personal assistant isn't happy, offering a host of snippy replies to iPhone owners who dare to mention the flick.

The Apple tool said "she gives artificial intelligence a bad name," among other digs, but now Scarlett, who stars alongside Joaquin Pheonix in Her has hit back at her electronic rival, calling Siri a "backstabber."

"I feel like I've been betrayed," she told Vanity Fair in an interview.

"The other day I asked Siri how I looked and she said, 'You're the fairest of them all.' So she's obviously playing both sides. What the hell? What a backstabber, man."

The low cost Moto G handset from Motorola can now boast the very latest version of Android KitKat as part of its excellent value proposition.

The update hit European versions of the handset this weekend and can be downloaded over the air directly from the device.

It comes just days after Vodafone pledged to release the device on contract packing the Android 4.4.2 update.

Within that report we speculated whether Vodafone had earned dibs on the KitKat update, but now we know that's not going to be the case.

Suits you, sir!

Having Android KitKat gives potential suitors yet another reason to snap up the 4.5-inch 720p device.

The handset is available off contract for the modest price of £179 and brings with it a 1.2GHz quad-core Snapdragon 400 processor and 1GB of RAM.

The Moto G may be joined in the UK by its big brother, the Moto X, this week with a London event planned for Tuesday.

The release of the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Neo looks imminent now leaked shots of the purported device has appeared online.

The pictures, posted by SamMobile, shows the rumoured Note 3 Neo alongside the original device, showing a slightly smaller body, but no other apparent aesthetic differences.

A leaked spreadsheet, which surfaced on Wednesday, referenced an 'industry first' hexa-core processor, combining a 1.3GHz quad-core processor and a 1.7GHz dual-core processor.

Elsewhere, the device offers more similarities with the Galaxy Note 2 than the current-gen Galaxy Note 3. It is said to have the same 5.5-inch 720p AMOLED display and 2GB of RAM.

MWC bound?

The scaled back Note 3 Neo now seems almost certain to make an appearance at the Mobile World Congress expo in Barcelona next month.

Recent reports have suggested the long-awaited Galaxy S5 will be there too, breaking from Samsung's now-traditional annual launch events.
