Lumines changes hands, returning on iOS and Android
Mobcast acquired the Lumines and Meteos properties from Q Entertainment, the Japanese smartphone game developer announced this week, as translated by Gematsu. Additionally, a new Lumines game is on the way for iOS and Android, and will be a collaboration with the colorful puzzle series' creator, Tetsuya Mizuguchi. Mizuguchi will work on the latest Lumines at his new California-based studio, Enhance Games. The Rez and Space Channel 5 creator co-founded Q Entertainment in 2003 following his departure from Sega. Mizuguchi left the developer in March. The last Lumines game to launch was 2012's Lumines: Electronic Symphony (seen above). [Image: Q Entertainment]
The Engadget Mobile Podcast is live at 2PM ET!
We've got a couple brand new editors to throw to the podcast wolves: Emily Price and Chris Velazco, both of whom have certainly seen their share of the wireless industry over the past few years. We'll be doing a live Hangout on Google+ and YouTube, and you'll be able to tune in below the break as well. The main topic of discussion, as you might expect, will be Lenovo's purchase of Motorola; we're also planning to tell you a little bit about the new podcast format we'll be trying out in the coming weeks. Lots to be excited about, so join us at 2PM! January 31, 2014 2:00:00 PM EST

We're back, and as they say on pretty much every late-night TV talk show ever made, we've got an excellent show for you. We've invited on a couple distinguished guests to discuss the Nexus 5, phones with curved displays and quite a few other topics: AndroidCentral Editor-in-Chief Phil Nickinson and TechnoBuffalo President and Editorial Director Jon Rettinger! This promises to be a fantastic hour of mobile opining, so come join us in the chat room below at noon. November 21, 2013 12:00:00 PM EST

The crazy month we call October has finally come to an end, and it's been one of the most hectic in recent memory. This week, we saw the Nexus 5 and Android 4.4 officially come out, and there was a bit about the iPad Air as well. Our guest on this week's podcast is Taylor Wimberly, who until recently was known for his work at AndroidandMe. We'll discuss many of the latest developments and what it all means, so join us at 7PM ET as we talk it all out! November 1, 2013 7:00:00 PM EDT
The Engadget Mobile Podcast, live at 12:30AM ET!
We try to record the mobcast during the day as much as possible, but we'll be doing this week's episode later at night because our special guest is Richard Lai, Editor-in-Chief of Engadget Chinese! We had a lot of time to play with the HTC One Max, and there will be plenty of other things to chat about as well. Join us! October 18, 2013 12:30:00 AM EDT

Curved Galaxy phones, upcoming Apple events, suspiciously familiar Samsung commercials, and a generous helping of Nexus 5 leaks. The subject material overfloweth, but who's going to join Brad on the mic this week? Our special guest is Taylor Martin of Pocketnow.com, who is no stranger to the mobile world and doesn't keep his opinions to himself. Join us in the chat room below at 3PM ET!

The Engadget Mobile Podcast lives on! This is the first show we've done sans-Myriam in a rather long time, but the world of wireless doesn't stop evolving, and neither will we. Today's special guest is James Trew, the man who helmed the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 review earlier this week. He also has a Galaxy Gear on-wrist as well, so Brad and James will have plenty to talk -- and rant -- about. Join us at 3PM ET!

If you haven't already heard the news, our very own Myriam Joire won't be "our very own" much longer, as she has accepted a position with Pebble. Since this is her last week on the staff, this will be her final podcast as a co-host; don't worry, she'll still be back from time to time in a guest capacity, but if you're awake, you won't want to miss this week's episode before she moves on to the wearables frontier. Join us! September 26, 2013 1:00:00 AM EDT
The Engadget Mobile Podcast is live at midnight ET!
Mom always said nothing good happens after midnight, but obviously she didn't know about mobile podcasts. Yes, it's another late night here at Engadget Mobile virtual HQ, but we have a few things to say about a couple rather high-profile reviews we published Tuesday evening. Join us tonight (or this morning, depending on where you are and how you look at it) as we dig into more of our thoughts about the new pair of iPhones, as well as any other topics that just happen to come up!

You're laying in your bed in the middle of the night, trying to fall asleep. Restless, you check your phone or tablet of choice and pull up Engadget's app. What's this? A mobile podcast to keep your mind racing at 1 in the morning? Yes, please. Join Myriam and Brad for another fireside chat, sans the fire. Smokey would be proud. August 16, 2013 1:00:00 AM EDT
The Engadget Mobile Podcast, live at 4PM ET!
We're back this week, and again there's no shortage of mobile news to keep our mouths talking -- not that this has ever been a problem for us in the past, right? This time our thoughts are primarily focused on the LG G2 and the Moto X, two flagships that we're going to be seeing a lot more of this fall. Join us at 4pm ET and we'll give you the scoop on the latest! August 7, 2013 4:00:00 PM EDT
The Engadget Mobile Podcast, live today at 2PM ET!
This time of year is naturally exciting already, but throw in a bunch of hot new flagship phones -- all of which do a pretty solid job of raising the bar in the mobile industry -- and this summer is turning into the best in recent memory. Myriam and Brad will discuss the latest news, rumors and reviews: the HTC One and Samsung Galaxy S 4 Google Play editions, the Samsung Galaxy Mega, the upcoming Nokia 1020 and plenty more. Join us!

Who cares how fast your phone is if it doesn't have PEZ? As far as Myriam is concerned, it can even have EDGE-only data and lack built-in GPS. The burning question, however, is whether Nokia will actually implement this cutting edge sugar-dispensing tech in its Lumia 420. Okay, we're not being totally serious, but that's a bit of conversation that totally, seriously happens during this episode of our podcast. Move your pointer to the player below to hear that and all the banter about this week's mobile news from Myriam and Brad.

Myriam and Brad are behind the mics once again, ready to tackle the latest topics from this past week. What's on the agenda? We'll be chatting about the HTC Butterfly s, Sony Xperia ZU, the upcoming Nokia EOS (which is quickly becoming the world's worst-kept secret) and plenty more. Also, we won't be covering this on the podcast, but you should probably check it out anyway. Join us in 45 minutes! Update: We're going to have to push the podcast back to around 4:15 (give or take). Our apologies, and appreciate your patience! June 19, 2013 4:15:00 PM EDT
The Engadget Mobile Podcast iOS 7 edition, live at 4PM ET!
As if there could be any doubt, the introduction of iOS 7 at this week's WWDC will likely take up a significant portion of our podcast today. There may be some talk of a Galaxy S4 zoom -- as if you could even try to keep Myriam from talking about it -- and a few other miscellaneous pieces of mobile news as well, so this is definitely a podcast worth tuning into. Join us at 4PM ET! June 12, 2013 4:00:00 PM EDT

There are two weeks of fun-filled mobile news to catch up on, and appendix-less Myriam is back on the squad in full force (read: off the drugs... we think). Join us at 1PM ET as we do our best to make sense of it all.
The Engadget Mobile Podcast, live at 2PM ET!
It's the podcast episode you've been waiting a month and a half to hear: the Samsung Galaxy S 4 edition. Now that we've had both in our hands for a considerable amount of time, we're ready to discuss the phone at length, and Joseph Volpe will be joining us for the party. What are its strengths and weaknesses? How does it compare to the Galaxy S III and the HTC One? How many drugs has Myriam ingested in the last 24 hours? We'll do our best to answer these burning questions and more, so listen in at 2PM ET! April 25, 2013 2:00 PM EDT
The Engadget Mobile Podcast, live at 12AM ET!
Another week, another heavy dose of wireless news. Speaking of dosage, Myriam and Brad are on the mics again, and drugs will likely once again play a large role in the discourse -- though perhaps not as much as last week. Either way, it should be a fun show, so stay tuned. For all who can't make the late-night podcast, the recorded version should be up sometime tomorrow, and we hope to be back to our normal schedule next week! PS. Our sponsor for this week's podcast is Audible, so go to audible.com/engadget to check out some great book titles while you listen to the show! April 19, 2013 12:00 AM EDT

We know what you're thinking: it's about time. It's been an amazingly hectic two weeks, and Myriam was on the brink of death (okay, it was a burst appendix, but still scary!). But we have another legendary episode coming your way this lovely evening as your duo of digital delight will be discussing Facebook Home and the HTC First, as well as a few other topics to help you get your mobile fix. So tune in and get our take on the latest news! April 11, 2013 11:30 PM EDT
The Engadget Mobile Podcast, live at 10:15AM ET at MWC 2013!
We would say it's been an absolutely epic and crazy Mobile World Congress, but we'd be lying. Instead, we'll talk to you about what we saw, felt and heard -- some of it good, and some just outright disgusting. There's a span of two weeks to cover, so it should be a healthy podcast with lots of stuff to talk about. As a disclaimer, our connection here in Barcelona isn't incredibly strong, so there is a small possibility that our bandwidth may go out on occasion. If you don't mind that chance, however, join us at 10:15AM ET! February 28, 2013 10:15 AM EST
