Check out this commercial for the HTC One M9 in the U.K.
3/27/2015 11:40:00 AM

HTC has started running a 30-second ad for the HTC One M9 in the U.K. No, Robert Downey Jr. isn't anywhere to be found in this made-for-TV commercial. Showing kids running around a museum with the HTC One M9 in hand, we are supposed to get the message that the manufacturer's new handset is fun and that wherever you go with the device, a good time follows.

Out of all of the possible features on the phone that HTC could have focused on, the kids at the museum are shown taking a picture of the occasion. That gives viewers the impression that the good times with the One M9 (as memorialized ...

OnePlus co-founder believes the OnePlus 2 can be as influential as the Galaxy S6, iPhone 6s, and HTC One M9
3/27/2015 10:57:00 AM

Yesterday, when OnePlus held an AMA (ask me anything) session on Reddit, Carl Pei, one of the company's co-founders, answered to a question about the next-generation OnePlus flagship smartphone.

According to Carl Pei, the handset is indeed called OnePlus 2, just as previously reported. Interestingly, Pei mentioned that he thinks the OnePlus 2 will be one of the four "really influential flagship smartphones this year", alongside Samsung's Galaxy S6, HTC's One M9, and Apple's iPhone 6s (of whatever the new iPhone will be called in the end).

While the OnePlus official didn't provide ...

 

Apple is an innovation Nazi, hints LeTV CEO, depicts it as a cartoon Hitler
3/27/2015 10:31:00 AM

The upcoming "bezel-less" phone from LeTV, which actually has bezels, and they are of average size both at the top and the bottom, is fast approaching, and one of China's biggest online streaming platforms has started making promo materials for it. Much to everyone's surprise, they depict Apple as a cartoonish Hitler.


Yep, that's what Jia Yueting, the CEO of the third largest Chinese video site Leshi TV (LeTV), posted on his Weibo account, where he has more than 5 million followers. The post is accompanied by a rant about Apple being a dark empire and walled garden that curbs ...

3/27/2015 10:26:00 AM


We've written about this time and time again: texting and driving kills. The phenomenon that is especially widespread among teen drivers has caused injuries and deaths of not only the drivers, but crashes in other vehicles often are the cause of death of completely innocent people.

This time around, the American Automobile Association (AAA), issues more than just a warning: it has posted a compilation of terrifying real-life video of people that text and drive.

Don't text and driveIt's a shock just watching it not because there are any explicit scenes, but ...

 

No more flash sales for the 64GB Xiaomi Mi 4 in India; new earphones now available
3/27/2015 10:24:00 AM

Starting tomorrow, those in India with a hankering for the 64GB Xiaomi Mi 4 can purchase the phone without having to participate in a flash sale of the device. That means you can wake up at 3am with a craving for the flagship handset, and make the purchase right then and there. Just the other day, Xiaomi ran a flash sale for the model and did not announce a sell out. That usually means that it is time to revert to open sales of a product. At the end of last month, the manufacturer started offering the 16GB variant of the handset in the country without resorting to the flash sales technique.

Nokia Lumia 930 wins our blind camera comparison, followed by Galaxy Note 4; HTC One M9 ends up last
3/27/2015 9:01:00 AM


Remember the Nokia Lumia 930? Yeah, that same high-end phone Nokia announced last April, flaunting a 20MP optically stabilized PureView camera. It might have been a year since the handset made its debut, but its camera has not lost its mojo just yet. In fact, the Nokia Lumia 930 just won our blind camera comparison after collecting over 6000 votes in its favor. That's quite an achievement, we must say, knowing how capable are the cameras of its competitors.

In second place we have the Samsung Galaxy Note 4, which collected a total of 5936 ...

 

The 5 best thin and high-performance tablets, with prices
3/27/2015 9:01:00 AM

Sony came out swinging at the MWC expo this month, and outed the amazing Xperia Z4 Tablet, which clocks in at just 6.1mm thin, and still kept the waterproof chassis of its predecessors.

Apple also managed to trim the waistline of its metal-clade iPad Air 2 to the incredible 6.1mm, which can't be an easy thing to do, considering we have an aluminum shell. We don't know what Dell did, but it weaseled out with a tenth of a millimeter less for its Venue 8 7000 slate, and the Sony isn't far behind those two - all amazing achievements. Some of those low-carb proponents are ...
