    K Touch Nibiru Mars One H1 Touted To Be World’s Cheapest Octa Core Full HD SmartphoneChina has churned out its fair share of smartphones recently that offer plenty of bang for your hard earned buck – if you’re living in China, that is. They seem to have managed to whittle down the cramming of as many features as possible into an affordable package into a work of art, and you can also take a look at the likes of the Gionee Elife S5.5 being the world’s thinnest or slimmest smartphone, measuring a mere 5.5mm in its thickness. Well, it seems that the K Touch Nibiru Mars One H1 (what a mouthful) also deserves a closer look. It might not be the thinnest handset on the planet, but it is going to be the cheapest octa-core Full HD smartphone in the world.

    Original HTC One Might Be Sold Alongside HTC One (2014)

    Original HTC One Might Be Sold Alongside HTC One (2014)It does seem as though the upcoming flagship smartphone from Taiwanese manufacturer, HTC, will simply retain the name of its predecessor – the HTC One, and not the “All New HTC One” as originally rumored. This statement was derived from the possibility of the recent eBay listing of the unreleased Verizon-bound HTC One that showed off a package with just the words “HTC One” on the outside without depicting the handset itself. Well, we now have received word from “a source close to a popular mobile phone retail chain” that they will want to keep on selling the original HTC One alongside the 2014 HTC One.

    I suppose we will just have to wait until this coming March 25th to receive the whole picture, so it should not be too long of a wait with slightly less than a fortnight ago. The upcoming HTC One will boast of improved hardware specifications compared to its predecessor, so to have a cheaper HTC One around might prove to be a decent alternative for those who want a high quality handset without having to fork out too much money for it in the first place. Other companies have also done the same, such as Apple retaining its older generation iPhone despite rolling out the iPhone 5s.

    iPhone 5s Replacement Given To Soldier 3 Months Later

    iPhone 5s Replacement Given To Soldier 3 Months LaterIt was just yesterday when we talked about how a certain Staff Sgt. Shaun Frank’s life was apparently saved by his iPhone when his iPhone 5s managed to absorb some of the impact from the ball bearings and shrapnel from a teenage suicide bomber, and hence it was suspected that his smartphone saved his life while he was on tour in Afghanistan. Part of the iPhone 5s’ metal body was able to absorb part of the impact, as well as deflect some of the shrapnel away, but this did not mean that he walked away unscathed, of course – there were still some wounds to heal.
