Logitech's new Logi BLOK brightens up protection for iPads

Logitech introduced its first family of products under the new Logi label: the Logi BLOK family of cases for iPad. Comprised of the Logi BLOK Protective Shell, the Logi BLOK Protective Case and the Logi BLOK Protective Keyboard Case, the BLOK family features cushioned square corners designed to help protect your iPad from drops up to six feet high and onto surfaces as hard as concrete.

“The iPad is a powerful device. But people have dropped and damaged – or are afraid that they will drop and damage – the iPad, so they typically don’t use it to its full potential,” said Michele Hermann, vice president of mobility at Logitech.

WifiMapper comes to Android

Android users who have been hoping that WifiMapper finally makes its way to their devices have to wait no longer. The app just launched for Google’s mobile operating system and brings with it some Android-only features. WifiMapper, for those who don’t know, helps you find free Wi-Fi hotspots around the world. The app also shows if there’s a time limit for connectivity, if you need to register, if the network is secure or not, as well as details on connection speeds.

Android users can help curate these pieces of information and connect directly to these hotspots within the app. You can also see your hotspot connection history and stats about how much data you’ve used and how long you’ve stayed connected on certain networks. Right now though, to help edit or comment on these hotspots you’ll need to sign in via Facebook account. If that doesn’t appeal to you, there will be an email sign-in option coming in the future.

Samsung rumoured to be packing 4GB RAM into Galaxy Note 5

The rumour mill keeps churning for Samsung’s upcoming flagship phablet. This time around the Galaxy Note 5 will reportedly feature a 4GB LPDDR4 RAM, which will be combined with Samsung’s Exynos 7422 64-bit octa-core processor. This’ll make it the company’s first all-in-one chipset. This “ePOP” chipset will also reportedly have GPU, onboard storage, and Shannon 333 LTE modem.

Other reported specs of the Galaxy Note 5 include a 5.67-inch Super AMOLED Quad HD display, S Pen Stylus (obviously a given with the Note line), improved 16-megapixel rear camera, and built-in wireless charging. It’ll also supposedly feature a curved glass back and aluminum frame, similar to what the Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge has. The bad news about that rumour is it might also mean the battery won’t be removable for the Note 5.
