“I want to be an astronaut when I grow up”, said my child. All I could do was smile and feel proud of the fact that my child was ambitious and wanted to become an astronaut. I just hoped that this thought of my child does not fade away with age as the child was too young to understand anything about NASA yet. It is a very common phenomenon in children to want to be something when they are young because they like the idea of it because of various reasons but their ambitions keep changing…
Looking for a new Android phone? Not sure what to buy? Overwhelmed by the combinations and possibilities? Instead of listing detailed tech specs and comparing mobile processors head-to-head, I’ve decided to take a different approach: one sentence round-ups. If you’re struggling to decide which phone to buy, then here are brief explanations of each Android device’s major selling points in 2014: Samsung Galaxy Note 4: Arguably the most powerful Android phone in terms of specs, the…
It’s 2014, but if you ask any Android user about the iPhone 6, they’ll tell you that it’s stuck in 2012. The iPhone 6’s specs are comparable to Androids released in 2012. It has poor battery life, a below-average camera, and plenty of other disappointing features. There are plenty of cool things Android can do that the iPhone cannot. Since I’m sick and tired of explaining these features to every Apple fan around me, I’ve succinctly summed up those features below: 1) Removable…
There are a few of us whose parents tell stories about how, instead of balloons, we always wanted those cherry colored bellies when we were little. That we didn’t care if our feet bled but we had to wear those tiny, slightly heeled shoes. That when others used to study for exams, we used to watch Project Runway and when other to hang out, we would save that money to buy ourselves that amazing jewellery or those fabulous high heels. There are some of us who might not particularly understand…
Samsung absolutely loves jumping on Apple’s mistakes. Last week, during the “bendghazi” or “bendgate” scandal, Samsung released an image showing the iPhone 6 Plus bending down to its real master, the Note 4. This week, Samsung decided to take its anti-Apple advertising campaign a step further with a Note 4 durability test. Samsung tested the Note 4 using a three-point bend test and human weight test. The results are cool to…
Earlier this week, Moto 360 users received an update that would change their lives forever. Okay, that may be a bit dramatic. But if you’ve talked to any Moto 360 owners this week, then they’ve probably already told you about the update. According to almost all reports, that recent Moto 360 update dramatically increased battery life on the smartwatch. Prior to the update, the Moto 360’s battery life was already pretty good. But now, according to at least one user, the Moto 360 can…
The Nexus 6 rumor mill has been churning at a rapid pace over the last few weeks. Last week, that rumor mill revealed that the Nexus 6 was going to be a 5.9-inch (!!!) smartphone. That’s huge. Of course, since Google has made the Nexus 5 about 5 inches and the Nexus 7 (tablet) about 7 inches, it makes sense that the Nexus 6 smartphone is going to be six inches. So how big is 5.9 inches? Thanks to an eagle-eyed commuter, we may have pictures of the Nexus 6 “in the…
The thought of using the 64-bit processor for smart phones powered by the Android operating system was not so popular last year when the iPhone 5 was launched. However since then, there has been a rethink and the ones that are going to be launched with the Android L will feature this 64-bit hardware, which promises to vastly improve user experience. It Is Going To Be Mainstream Technology Now that manufacturers are more than keen to incorporate this 64-bit hardware into their phones, it is…
All of us love clicking pictures. All of us love editing our pictures to make it more beautiful. Some of us click pictures solely to edit them, they enjoy editing so much. The thrill of looking at a picture with enhances colors, putting filters on them to hide our flaws or to give some effect. The fact that your makeup selfie becomes a no makeup selfie after some editing is so much fun! Some of us, however, are beyond the filters and cutting out fat from certain areas. We are more artistic…
