Pocketnow Weekly 021: Droid Rage Backfire, New Lumia Reviews, and Google's Nexus Family Revisited

Microsoft kick-starts the smack-talk machine, which blows up in its face just as Nokia sells its own headquarters. The Lumia 822 gives us an excuse to launch a brand-new review format, while a Nexus 4 trade lets us take a post-review look at Google's latest smartphone. The iPhone 5S breaks its cover -maybe- while the Nexus 10 gives everyone a reason to care about big Android tablets - again, maybe. Rumors of a new 1080p device from LG get the speculation bonfire going again, but a cool bucketful of Google Play-colored cold water got us back on track. And, of course, it wouldn't be a podcast without some doom-and-gloom news from HTC. All that, plus listener mail and Joe Levi's inimitable insight, after the break.
