Tesla plans to debut US$35,000 Model 3 next month

What can be considered as a very smart move for Tesla is the upcoming release of its reasonably priced new vehicle, the Model 3. The new car will be debuting at the end of next month and scheduled to hit showroom floors in 2017. It’ll retail for US$35,000, which is a far cry from the more higher-end units the company sells. Tesla CEO Elon Musk and his team have been working to make sure they stick to that price while promising to offer the features they provide in their more expensive vehicles. We can’t wait to hear more about this when Tesla officially launches it on March 31.

Samsung Galaxy S7 edge rumoured to be carrying a 3,600mAh battery

If recent leaks are to be believed, the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S7 edge will be getting a rather sizable upgrade battery-wise. A recent FCC filing shows that one of the new flagships will be sporting a 3,600mAh battery, which will be up from the current 2,600mAh battery of the S6 edge. The screenshot shows the FCC ID A3LSMG935KOR and the battery size. The FCC ID was previously confirmed to be for the S7 edge. There is no other similar screenshot though that confirms this to be the Galaxy S7’s battery.

LG teases Always On display for upcoming LG G5

LG is preparing its latest flagship, the LG G5 and one of the features it is teasing is an always on display that can show missed calls, notifications, emails and calendar events at all times. This feels like a throwback to the days when flip-phones displayed this information on a small screen when closed but should be a welcome feature for anyone who hates having to use an unlock code just to see what they've missed. Samsung, similarly, is expected to offer an always on feature on its Galaxy S7 flagship but no cohesive details are available right now.

Always On technology, while welcome on smartphones and tablets, should be a standard feature on smartwatches whose primary function it is to tell time as well as mirror notifications and alerts. Hopefully we will see this made a key feature for wearables sooner rather than later.

Twitter 'VIPs' now start seeing ads again

A few months back, Twitter started testing out a feature that kept "VIPs" or elite users from seeing ads on the social network. It wasn't clear what VIPs were. It didn't seem to be about reach but more about verified accounts. Now, though the test for these special people seem to be over as Twitter is now treating them like regular users. They can now see ads like the rest of us. In Twitter's defense, they didn't announce this as an official feature but more of a test of sorts which the company likes to engage in every now and then.
