Google Smartphone Nexus 5 review

When the Nexus 4 launched in late 2012, the most enticing thing was its initial £240 price point. For an unlocked device with decent hardware, it seemed like a steal. But it wasn't without some shortcomings, which led to only those looking to get a strong handset at a low, low price buying it, rather than anyone wanting top specs.

Now we're at the Nexus 5, a solid smartphone with a 2.3GHz Snapdragon 800 chipset and 2GB RAM, which certainly sounds market leading. It has a 2,300mAh battery and a 5-inch 1080p display while also debuting with the new version of Android - 4.4 KitKat.

Sony Xperia Z1 versus iPhone 5s Reviews

The Xperia Z1 Compact features a 2.2GHz quad-core Snapdragon 800 – currently the most powerful ARM-based mobile processor available in smartphones and tablets – a 20.7-megapixel camera, NFC, 4G LTE and a solid, waterproof build that makes it feel every bit a premium Android smartphone, but smaller than the trend.

It has a “class leading” 2,300 mAh battery, which Sony says should last a day of heavy usage. It runs Android 4.3 Jelly Bean, but with a promise from Sony to update it to the latest Android 4.4 Kitkat.

Sony argues that its rivals' smaller-screened phones, such as the Samsung S4 Mini or HTC One Mini, are compromised by having slower processors and less RAM than their full-size siblings, meaning they offer poorer performance.

How to send Files from Android to Mac OS

The most easygoing way to synchronise everything from your Android device to your macintosh is to apply Google’s own apps for e-mail, calendaring, pics, and contacts. Whenever you act, you will be able to enable synchronising from your Web-based Google account to your Android device through going to Settings > Accounts > Google and tapping your Google account.

In this menu, you'll be able to toggle switch synching of several Google services—including Google Chrome, Photos, Google Play Books, Google Play Magazines, Google Play Music, Google+, and Picasa Web albums—on or off. You could as well decide to synchronize the Internet, an interesting feature that syncs your Google search results across devices.

New BBM for Android V.200.0.138 Now Relase Beta

The beta is only available to a select group of Android users for now, so Android folks will need to remain patient while BlackBerry works out any bugs. Fingers crossed it has no launch mishaps like BBM had when it first launched for Android. That was a nightmare for them.

Even though the Canadian company has promised that it will bring lots of new features on Android and iOS platforms this year, only a few days have passed from 2014 and BlackBerry has already released a new version of BBM for Android.
