Review: LG G4

By Gadjo Cardenas Sevilla

The LG G4 is speedy and offers lag-free performance even when running more demanding games and apps as well as more complex camera and video features. Battery life is quite good, requiring a charge every other day with moderate use.

2015 has been an outstanding year for smartphones. Manufacturers have certainly upped their game in terms of features, battery life, design and materials. One could almost say that there are no bad flagship smartphones out there, and while some newer models may seem  like iterative takes on last year’s models, few will fall short of most user’s needs and wants.

Apple Retail Stores to stock Watch straps this week

Apple Watch owners clamouring for a new look and tap-into the Watch's chameleon-like nature will soon be able to score some new straps starting this week at their local Apple Retail Stores. Like the Watch itself, the bands and straps have been in short supply with some preorders promising a 7-8 week wait.

It looks like supplies are starting to loosen a bit and Apple Stores will have extra bands for in-store purchase for buyers of the Watch (who want an alternative band), for replacing some of the shopworn try-on Watches and finally, if stock permits, to sell to walk-in customers.

KFC helps keep greasy fingers away from phones with Tray Typer

 You’re probably the type who scrolls through your feed while eating out at fast food joints. But 

eating at places with friend and greasy food can be a bit bothersome. KFC in Germany had the 

right idea or at least a brilliant one when they introduced the Tray Typer. 

 

The Bluetooth-powered keyboard is just 0.4mm thin and is water-resistant, durable, and 

comes with a built-in rechargeable battery. It can work with almost any modern smartphone, 

tablet, or laptop. It was only available for a week in Germany and it was so popular that 

customers took them home.
