  • Photos of Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 8.0 Surfaced

    Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 8.0

    Another phablet in the Galaxy Tab line was leaked on the internet today, let’s take a look at the latest Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 8.0.

    Initially we knew about the existence of a new Galaxy Tab 10.1 and 7.0 versions, now we have hard evidence about a completely new model. Samsung are getting boring with these, don’t you think?

    Well, the Tab 10.1 specs were  leaked recently and it is said it will feature the latest Intel Clove Trail+ CPU. But until now, we knew almost nothing about a Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 8.0.

    The Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 8.0 will be available in two colors, as usual, black and white. The design, surprise surprise, will be very similar to the Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0 which was launched earlier this year in Barcelona, minus the S-Pen obviously. I never suspected Samsung’s design department of being very out of the box …

  • Motorola Moto X Specs Leaked on Twitter

    Moto X

    Motorola is one of my favorite companies since I’ve seen “Die Hard” and all these bad guys using encrypted Motorola Walkie Talkies, well, strike that, Motorola Moto X specs were leaked on Twitter today.

    The leak was obviously not encrypted and it comes from a proven tech-spy, @evleaks by his maiden name. You probably know about him, he’s a cool dude who proved himself with tons of accurate info in the past, so it is very probable he’s got it right this time too.

    Well, Moto X was rumored for some time now, especially before Google’s I/O conference. Motorola themselves confirmed they are working on the Moto X project during their D11 conference back in May but the device itself wasn’t shown. Actually, one guy at the conference, Motorola’s Woodside, claimed he has the smart phone in his pocket, but I think he was trolling the audience.

  • Google Reveals Project Loon, Internet from Balloon

    Project Loon

    Yeah, you got that right, Google goes high tech with the Project Loon, providing internet for the people with a little help from a balloon. It sounds like a bad joke, I know, but the idea is not so looney after all. Since the Hindenburg disaster, balloons don’t have such a good press, but now, Google X Labs reinvented the wheel sort of speak, as they announced their intention to provide internet to everyone in the world using state of the art wireless internet tech from the 21′st century and a flight concept from 2000 BC, or when the balloons were invented.

    Basically, Google will have some huge balloons floating around at 60 000 feet in the air in various regions of the planet providing internet to everyone. The balloons are made of polyethylene and they use solar power in order to keep their equipment running, which means that they …

  • Com2uS releases Brave Heroes for Android

    brave.hereoesYou can usually count on Com2uS to release a couple of colorful Android Games each month, and we got a new one last week with Brave Heroes. brave.heroes-1Brave Heroes is a side-scrolling Castle Defense game where you’ll have to take out the enemies’ castle before they take you out. You’ll produce a steady stream of units with coins earned during battle, and there are plenty of upgrades and unlocks to power-up with between levels. The gameplay isn’t anything we haven’t seen before, and while Brave Heroes is lacking in the originality department, it makes up for it with Heroes.

    The warriors of Brave Heroes fall into three categories with Distance, Near, and Mage. Each category has 8 unlockable heroes which means you’ll have to 24 heroes to play with. Unfortunately, the coolest concept of the game is also its downfall as 15 of those 24 heroes can only be bought …

The idea is very  simple and ingenious and it uses stuff previously used before on watches, if you ever had a Casio Tough Solar, you already know what this is about.

  • The Google Glass Prices Should Be Much Lower

    Google Glass

    As you may already know, Google released a developer version of its much praised high tech gizmo, the Google Glass, at a hefty price tag of almost $1500. This sounds like a lot of money, don’t you think? It IS a lot of money, but developers are not your regular consumers, for the average Joe, I expect a price tag of up to $350, tops!

    Let’s take a look at the facts, shell we? If you didn’t know, the engineers from Catwig took the Google Glass for a destruction test, actually they tear them up and took a look at its hardware, in order to get an idea about Google’s asking price.

    Well, breaking news, the Google Glass uses basically the same “high tech” stuff you will find in your average 100$ smart phone. It’s nothing alien in there, there’s no dilithium crystal, no trace of Sauron’s eye. Just basic …
