I keep to myself in cabs. But one thing that gets my attention is a driver with a neck tattoo telling me that he just got out of jail after 10 years and that the cop behind is making him nervous. And especially when he starts a police chase while yelling "I can’t go back." I thought this was the end.

Boeing is a company that many associate with aeroplanes, and rightfully so given that that is the company’s core competency. However Boeing has been making headlines as of late for something completely unrelated – smartphones.
As you might recall earlier, a certain Boeing “Black” handset was spotted at the FCC, although at that time there was no official announcement from the company, at least until now where Boeing has officially announced the Black smartphone, a device which the company is touting as a highly secure product.

A quick online search of Aspartame will provide you with numerous opinions about this artificial sweetener. Some claim it causes things like cancer, seizures, multiple sclerosis, lupus, memory problems and brain tumors. Just about every governmental organization in the world, regulating food products, have deemed it safe for human consumption. (But, you know, just about every governing body in the world still gets the"sodium raises blood pressure" myth wrong, despite overwhelming scientific evidence to the contrary, so let’s not take their word on the whole Aspartame thing!)

Back at MWC 2014, Nokia surprised everyone by announcing the Nokia X series of Android handsets. An odd move by a company who has not been shy to throw their eggs into the Windows Phone basket, and for a company on the cusp of being acquired by Microsoft, who coincidentally enough owns the Windows Phone platform that Nokia uses on the majority of their smartphones.
That being said, with the Nokia X lineup running forked versions of Android, it could pose a problem in terms of app availability, although Nokia reassures that 75% of Android apps will be compatible right off the bat, but in the meantime it seems that Nokia has managed to strike up a partnership with the Line Corporation in Japan which will see the Line messaging app preinstalled on all Nokia X smartphones.

Google+ has been taking cues from Snapseed ever since the company snapped up the app, and this refresh for Android is no different. The update introduces tools like crop, rotate and one-touch filters. It also comes with Snapseed-like enhancements,…
Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain, is one event that has certainly drawn its fair share of attention from the tech industry as well as anyone who is generally interested in mobile devices, and we have seen our fair share of smartphones and wearable technology there to date. The folks over at LG are not quite done with their repertoire of gadgets, having announced the LG F70 smartphone that will run on the most recent Android 4.4 KitKat operating system right out of the box alongside a slew of bells and whistles, targeting the fast growing LTE market around the globe.
LG has been a long-time industry leader in LTE patents, and the South Korean company continues to lead the charge when it comes to making 4G devices widely available around the world. Just what will the LG F70 bring to the table, or rather, to your pocket? For starters, you will not find yourself bogged down by its size, since it has a compact and slim chassis alongside a 4.5” WVGA IPS display, a quad-core 1.2GHz processor, and will be powered by a removable 2,440mAh battery which would put it in good stead to lay claim to having the largest capacity battery in its class, allowing users to experience the exceptional speed of LTE without having to run off to the nearest power outlet in the middle of the day.
Apart from that, the thin bezel and smooth rear design on the LG F70 would also contribute to its ease of use and comfortable grip. There is the addition of Easy Home which will help simplify the home screen, all the while increasing the size of icons and fonts so that one who is making a transition to a smartphone for the first time would be whole lot easier. Other features include the latest advanced UX feature, Knock Code, 4GB of internal memory that can be augmented via a microSD memory card slot, 1GB RAM, and a 5MP shooter at the back with a VGA front-facing camera. There is no word on pricing just yet.
