NVIDIA Tegra 4i shows up in mysterious 'brand' phone, promises Q1 2014 debut Mobile

While we've yet to see NVIDIA's Tegra 4i show up in any commercially available hardware, the company is still keen to remind us it's on the way. This time, the 28nm Cortex-A9 chip is making an appearance inside what appears to be a new, revised reference design or white-label phone. Spotted over on AnandTech, the mysterious device sports "brand," er, branding (we're guessing to be replaced by operator markings), along with a 4.8-inch 720p display, a 13-megapixel shooter and LTE / HSPA+ that would cover multiple (yet unspecified) regions. This does appear to be a little more than just a demo unit though, with NVIDIA tellingAnandTech that the device will come to market sometime in Q1 2014, costing $300 - $400 sans contract in 8, 16 or 32GB varieties. Other Tegra 4i handsets are also said to be in the works, starting as low as $200 commitment-free.

Pinterest launches its first non-English site, can now parler Français

Pinterest is rolling out the welcome beyond Anglo circles, with France the first country to pick up its very own localized version of the sharing site. Users will get France-centric content and more French site links in both search results and category feeds. It launches today across the web, iOS and Android and like last month's UK launch, Pinterest has set up a dedicated team in Paris for the site. As noted by Techcrunch, even if you're not a French speaker, other language options are still available within settings, encompassing Spanish, Dutch and Portuguese. However, the site will still lack the country-specific content that Pinterest's new localized versions offer up.

Apple Design Awards 2013 go to Evernote, Yahoo and others

Add this to Apple's string of revelations at this year's WWDC: the company has just divulged its 2013 Design Awards winners, comprising of a variety of iPhone, iPad and Mac apps that it deems to be a cut above the rest. This year's list includes note-taking app Evernote, Yahoo Weather and two stellar entries by student developers. This is also the first time Apple has required young developer scholarship applicants to submit apps that detail their lives and backgrounds in technology, out of which the company chose three standout submissions. Just like last year, Apple judged the entries based on their features and visual designs. You can check out the full list in the source below and -- if you're a dev -- glean some hints for next year.

PS4 video reveals UI for sharing gameplay videos, multi-tasking, making friends

By now, most people ought to have dismissed the old stereotype that the male is the calm, rational opposite of the hysterical female. If anything, it's the other way round, which is why the short promo video shown right at the end of Sony's E3 press conference was kind of refreshing. It was also pretty useful, because even if the software it shows isn't final, it reveals how the PS4 user interface is likely to handle things like chat, gameplay video sharing and multi-tasking. Read on for a cut-down version of the fast-paced clip and our probing evaluation of what it says about PS4 gaming and human behavior.

So, from what we can tell, the clip shows an emotional gu

y, Will Walker, repeatedly failing at the Knack monster masher on PS4, to the point where he's about to give up and condemn himself as a worthless good-for-nothing who should have never been born in the first place. Until, to his immense relief, he spots that his PSNbuddy Sarah Greene has uploaded a gameplay video showing how she mashes up the monster (using height rather than just a plain frontal attack, duh).

Will Walker double-taps his PS button to instantly return to the game, where he replicates Sarah's goblin-murderin' moves to great success. He immediately regains his confidence, mood-swinging back to the primeval belief that he do anythingand beat anyone -- even the Killzone: Shadow Fall baddies who happen to be waging war on his old pal Brian Ramos at that very moment.

Brian calls for help over the bundled single ear mono headset, and Will starts a download of the game's multi-player mode before double-tapping to return toKnack. When he gets a system notification that the download is done, Will joinsKillzone with Brian, but quickly gets stuck because, once again, he's a nobody, a complete nothingness, and life always gets in his way. Until Brian solves it by using the Share button on his controller to show Will how to make proper use of his rifle's telescopic sight.

That's gaming; that's sharing; that's humanity -- and you know what makes it hyper, hyper real? The bits in the video where the guys message Sarah (e.g., to encourage her to buy Killzone via her Xperia smartphone), and they use their D-pads (or motion control?) to enter text, letter... by... letter... And then word prediction kicks in to magically complete entire sentences. That's some authentic footage, right there.
