Another week has passed by, as we are already four months into 2014. As with most other recent weeks, these past five days were full of good Android news to cover and talk about. Of course, Google and others went all-out this year on April Fool’s Day, with a Google Maps gag to catch Pokémon, an Emojified version of the Android Chrome browser, and lots more.
We were also able to push out Episode 54 of The Droid Life Show, where we talked about Amazon’s new set-top box Fire TV and shared our official thoughts on the HTC One (M8).
Yup, it was a good week. All the action, in case you missed any of it, is right below.
