Review: iPhone 6S Plus

By Gadjo Cardenas Sevilla

3D Touch is especially useful with a larger device like the iPhone 6S Plus since one finger can suddenly access myriad options decided on simply by force.  When I’m scanning messages, I can ‘peek’ to get a bigger picture of what Is behind the message and if I need to act on it (i.e. respond quickly), I can ‘Pop’ in and do so.

Reliable, long-lasting and extremely competent, the iPhone 6S Plus continues building on the reputation of its predecessor and makes Apple’s largest smartphone one of the most powerful and multifunctional mobile devices in the market today.

Facebook brings expanded notification options to mobile

 

A new update for Facebook on Android and iOS is bringing an “expanded, personalized notifications tab” to you. This will show everything from updates of your friends, joining notifications, info about friends’ birthdays, live events, sports scores, TV shows, and even updates about certain locations if you have Location History enabled. Facebook though won’t change your existing notifications settings if those are okay with you. The adjustment options will just show up within the Settings so you can make changes as you see fit. Rollout is happening gradually for both operating systems in the US. If successful there, hopefully it makes its way here.

If you use Google’s little notes app, it will now let you doodle on them. It’s coming first to Android users and might make its way to iOS but we can’t tell when yet.

Review: 2015 Ford F-150

Text and photos by Donny Halliwell

The Ford F-150 created the environment for adventures we otherwise wouldn’t have taken. It’s these sorts of memories that stuck with me throughout the review process. Something I’m sure long-time truck owners already know.

I’ve never owned a truck. After spending a week with the 2015 Ford F-150, that certainly may change when it comes time to purchase my next vehicle. Don’t get me wrong; I’ve driven many trucks before yet none of them left me with this feeling.There’s something special here -- something worth buying. Ford has done an amazing job creating a modern, easy-to-drive, and super practical pickup that made a truck lover out of me.
