Quick: do you like the colors that Samsung has been using for its 2012 Galaxy devices? From Pebble Blue and Ceramic White (first teased back in April at the launch of the Galaxy S3) to Garnet Red, Onyx Black and others, the colors and finish of Samsung’s popular devices have become quite iconic.
One of the newer devices that sports the colorful glazed design is the Galaxy S3 Mini. The device was initially launched in the “classic” Pebble Blue and Ceramic White, but recent rumors and leaks suggested that Samsung prepares more versions.
Smart speakers are finding a place in more and more homes, with around 120 million of them in the U.S. alone. However, that doesn’t mean there haven’t been doubts and controversies surrounding these gadgets. By now many of us are familiar with the case in which Alexa accidentally recorded and sent a family’s private conversation to a contact. It’s enough to send chills down anyone’s spine, but don’t chuck your Amazon Echo in the trash just yet.

Current Google CEO Sundar Pichai once said he wanted to see Chrome and Android in every screen available, a goal that is now looking more real than ever. Android is obviously all over the spectrum, but there is a whole other beast Google has been very good at taking over the market with – Chrome OS.
This web-based operating system now exists on laptops, desktop computers and even all-in-one PCs. These are known as Chromebooks, Chromeboxes and Chromebases, but that is not where Google wants to let things end.
It’s been two years since Huawei released the P30 Pro — a device that would go on to be the last Huawei flagship with Google services. The Chinese giant has launched several flagship smartphones since the introduction of the crippling US trade embargo, but none have had access to the backbone of Android’s entire app experience.
Today I want to take a look at the P30 Pro in 2021 to see what value this once innovative smartphone can bring in 2021.
While its past G-series flagships have been small evolutionary upgrades on previous handsets, this year LG revolutionised its flagship with a modular-toting battery-replaceable metal design.
Yet, change doesn’t always mean for the better, and while there’s a lot of great things going for the LG G5, the redesign of the LG G5 means the battery has shrunk slightly from 3000mAh unit packed inside the LG G4 and LG G3 to a 2800mAh unit, which is still removable.
Smartphone prices are unequivocally too high. Top flagships can set you back in excess of $1,500, and some have even crossed the $2,000 mark. Those prices easily surpass the cost of some mid-range laptops, and even 4K TVs with screens in the 75-inch range.
Just five years ago phones were far more affordable. Prices were closer to $600 or $700. This leads us to ask, what’s behind the unrelenting surge in handset costs, and will consumers continue to fork over big bucks smartphones?
Do you have an insatiable thirst for power? Would you like your smartphone to be more powerful than your parent’s computer? Do you follow all of the latest developments in mobile technology with a passion, ever hungry for more?
If you’re anything like me, then the answer to all those questions above should be “yes, yes, and YES!”
I remember back in the day, the “cool” thing (for nerds) to do was to follow what Intel and AMD were up to.

First up is the newly redesign Amazon Echo. Featuring a 2.5-inch woofer and a 0.6-inch tweeter, the Echo makes for a great sounding smart speaker with improved microphones that can recognize your voice from an extended distance. But if the speakers still aren’t good enough for you, the Echo includes a 3.5mm headphone jack so you can pair the Alexa assistant to larger speakers.
This smart speaker usually is $100, but Amazon has taken 30 percent off of its retail price making it just $70 for a limited time.
