Samsung debuts mid-range Galaxy Tab A

Samsung’s newest tablet has made its first appearance in Russia. The Galaxy Tab A is a mid-range device said to be occupying the space previously held by the Galaxy Tab 4. It features metal frames (perhaps that’s why it gets the “A” in its name) and runs Android Lollipop 5.0 out of the box. This slate has a 4:3 aspect ratio similar to what the iPad and Nexus 9 have. It will be available in 8- and 9.7-inch display sizes with 1,024 x 768 resolution. It’ll run on a 1.2GHz Cortex-A53 chip with 2GB RAM, 16GB internal storage with microSD support, and a 5-megapixel rear camera. Battery capacity for the 8- and 9.7-inch models are 4,200mAh and 6,000mAh, respectively. These tablets are also LTE-ready. The prices in Russia start at over US$270 for the 8-inch Wi-Fi version and over $430 for the 9.7-inch with LTE.

Find your iPhone easily with Apple Watch

Apple already has a “Find My iPhone” feature in place. But what if you misplaced it at home? Well, Apple has built into the Apple Watch the ability to “ping” your iPhone when it goes missing.  That’ll make it easier to find your phone the next time you drop it into the couch. We’re hoping the pinging is loud enough to be heard even there. That feature is said to be under Apple Watch’s Settings but we have to wait until the smartwatch ships before we can confirm that.
