We fix what others can't.
This morning at the Walter Reade theater in NYC, LG (re)announced the dual-display, triple-camera V10 phone, a device we heard all about last night. After today’s (short) presentation, we got a few minutes to play with the V10 first-hand. The phone is made of stainless steel and Duraguard silicone, materials that contribute to what LG […]
Around these parts, Synology is better known for its NAS boxes, which are storage drives that you access over the network and that come with a slew of optimized Android apps dedicated to accessing videos, photos, audio, documents, files, and notes from your mobile device. But it looks like Synology is casting a wider net with the release […]
Update 1: 2015/10/01 11:39am PDT If you have a Chromecast or Android TV, you’ve probably noticed the one big glaring hole in content on those devices: Amazon Instant Video. Now, it seems more unlikely than ever that these devices will be getting AIV support, because Amazon is apparently preventing sellers on the US site from listing […]
NVIDIA finally announced launch details for GeForce NOW (formerly GRID) earlier today, but the company has still more news to share. It’s expanding availability for the SHIELD hardware and adding new features to its already impressive repertoire. It’s all kicking off tomorrow. The SHIELD Android TV is going to launch in Europe tomorrow, which is handy […]
It’s been barely 24 hours since the Nexus 6P was officially unveiled, but already you can order dozens of cases from Amazon for the phone you won’t even have for weeks. Case manufacturers have perfected the art of churning out cases for phones based on pre-release leaks. Well, I should say almost perfected. It looks like many […]
Windows has no idea what to do with that mountain of APK files you’ve probably downloaded from APK Mirror, which can make managing said mountain of files annoying. Apkshellext2 is a Windows shell extension that might make your life much easier, as it has mine. Just a few clicks and Windows Explorer will get much smarter. […]
Last week, Motorola announced its plans in regard to devices it would be upgrading to Android Marshmallow. Missing from that list were the 2013 Moto X, the 2014 Moto X on ATT and Verizon, and both the 2014 and 2015 Moto E. Users were understandably upset by the latter two models, which in the case […]
People who take online privacy seriously eventually get to the point where they want to experiment with a VPN. Usually this costs money, which puts some people off particularly because the process involves handing over an email address and credit card information. This means that even if you’re better protected from prying eyes than you […]
It’s that time of month again—yes, Google has updated the developer dashboard with new platform distribution numbers. A surprising twist this month is that 5.0 variants of Android have gone down slightly. In fact, everything has gone down, with the notable exception of Android 5.1. That one is up almost 3%. Android version stats, October […]
It’s definitely not getting an Android 6.0 update, but the original Moto X is still getting Android 5.1. As is customary (i.e. required), Motorola has posted the kernel source for the update. You can grab it on GitHub if you’re the developer sort. Kernel source doesn’t do the average user any good directly. However, this […]
After signing up for Google’s Project Fi I had only to wait a couple of days before a SIM card and “Welcome Kit” showed up at my door. I noted that the accessories – a battery pack, earbuds, and white case for the Nexus 6 – seemed to be carefully and thoughtfully designed, even if the […]
The Asus ZenWatch 2 is going to be shipping in a few days, and the company has updated the ZenWatch Manager app to get ready. The new version is basically a completely new app. The interface, features, and selection of watch faces have been completely revamped. This update boosts the number of available watch faces […]
