With LG announce the G Pro 2 and some low-mid ranged handsets, we have to wonder what else the South Korean tech company might have in store for us at MWC 2014. Perhaps the handsets will be put on display and demonstrated for the world to see, or perhaps LG might have other products that they are still keeping under wraps, but either way LG has since released a teaser trailer for their presence at MWC 2014 which will be taking place in Barcelona next week. The video shows off a couple of LG’s devices, including the LG G Flex, and also based on the tagline which reads, “Knock and Discover Tomorrow”, we can only assume that LG might share additional Knock Code details.

For those unfamiliar, Knock Code is LG’s new security system for its smartphones. It is also the successor to Knock On feature which allows users to double tap the screen to wake the phone up, rather than pressing a physical button. What differentiates Knock Code from Knock On is that it allows users to wake up the phone by tapping a series of patterns. According to LG, there are over 86,000 possible combinations, meaning that figuring out your knock pattern might not be as easy as one might think. In fact LG believes that Knock Code is safer compared to Touch ID, but we guess we will have to wait and see to find out.

Photographers, if you’re looking forward to a new professional camera, you might be interested to learn that come 11th February, Nikon could be taking the wraps off a new camera in the form of the Nikon D4S, the successor to the Nikon D4. While what will be unveiled remains to be seen, the Nikon D4S is very real, at least according to Nikon who announced its existence not too long ago. At the same time we also expect that many of you guys are curious about its specs and now thanks to additional information that the folks at Nikon Rumors have managed to glean, we now know a little bit more about the Nikon D4S which hopefully will be confirmed next week.

According to the specifications, the Nikon D4S is rumored to retain the same sensor as the Nikon D4, which is a 16MP sensor. It will also be able to record Full HD movies at 60fps, a new focus mode that can use 3D tracking, an ISO range of 100-25,600, fine tuned white balance, and will see a slight change to the design of the camera’s body. It is also expected to be priced the same as the Nikon D4, so photographers can look forward to price tags of close to $6,000, and can also look forward to the camera shipping in March or April. Take it with a grain of salt for now, but check back with us next week for all the details.

Millions of people around the world have a love-hate relationship with Candy Crush Saga, those who love the game can’t get enough of it, those who have never played it hate being pestered by friends and family with constant requests on Facebook. There’s no denying the fact that Candy Crush Saga has become very popular, its a cash cow for King, the developer of this game. The game is undoubtedly King’s intellectual property, but the developer is adamant that it includes the word “candy” as well. King.com Limited, on February 6th 2013, registered a claim to the word “candy” with the U.S. Trademark Office, pertaining to the use of this word in video games and even accessories, including items like clothing. The filing was approved on January 15th, 2014 and now a lot of developers are reporting that they’re being asked to remove “candy” from their applications, or provide proof that the use of the word doesn’t infringe on King’s trademark.

We know that Samsung is going to release a new flagship smartphone in a couple of months, which is expected to be called the Galaxy S5. Already there have been a lot of rumors about this device, a Samsung executive recently said that the Galaxy S5 will be released in April. Rumor has it that the release event will take place in London, around mid-March. An exact date has not been rumored as yet, but England’s capital is claimed to be the place where the Korean juggernaut unveils its latest flagship to the world.

This latest rumor comes after reports that a launch is expected at Mobile World Congress 2014 in Barcelona. MWC kicks off late next month, but it didn’t seem likely that the announcement will be made there. Samsung hasn’t launched a flagship device at MWC since Galaxy S2. The rumor about Galaxy S5 event in London comes from Italian journalist Flavio, who claims to have heard from a reliable source with knowledge of the global launch event. Samsung hasn’t dropped any hints as yet, about its upcoming smartphone or the location where it will be unveiled. It is still a bit too soon to be sure right now, rumors such as this fly around quite a bit prior to a new product’s unveiling. We’ll only really know for sure once invites from Samsung start coming in.
