Here's one for our true love Nexus 5, Google announces Nexus 5X as it's follow up

Today at the Google event the tech giant announced a follow up to one of our favourite smartphones of all time and arguable one of the best nexus devices that Google has ever produced and the company knows that thus instead of inventing a whole new set they made the trusty old nexus 5 even better with a follow up called the nexus 5X. Now when you look at the handset it does give you a similar feel yet it isn’t all too alike the nexus 5 which is a good thing, the 5X wasn’t the only the only thing Google announced. The nexus 6P was also announced as follow up to the nexus 6 Phablet you can check our article about the nexus 6P here.

Back to our beloved nexus 5X, now we most certainly don’t know how it will perform but probably no one does as of yet we can only know that when we buy it, but according to the Google event today it will feature a snapdragon 808 chip, 3 GB ram, full HD 1080p display with a size of 5.2” and gorilla glass 3 and a camera with 12 MP very large pixels much like the HTC ultra pixels which means it will take really good low light photos but we can only truly know that when we have test results for that, the other specs are all good too. You’re probably going like “oh man an only 1080p screen? And a snapdragon 808 not 810” well yea that’s true but that is true cause the device will be sold at a really cheap price for those specs and it will mainly target those customers who like good performance and no gimmicky show offs. We repeat with this almost every review a 1080p screen means really good battery life same goes for the snapdragon 808 chip, apart from that the nexus 5x also includes a finger print scanner and Android Marshmallow.


All these specs are great but what they really show is that google is targeting the average audience so you can expect this phone too be available at a decent price while giving you top notch specs that perform good all this is wrapped in a plastic body though the material seems different from what the nexus 5 was like and seems much sturdier either way we never hated the nexus 5 for its shape or appearance, also the phone will come in black and white colours, we don't know if more colours will be made available later. We most certainly can’t wait for the nexus 5x can you? Let us know us in the comments section.

Last year Sony released the C5 Ultra a near bezel less phone with a premium design but was ultimately a mid ranger, this year we are here again reporting about the C6, another bezel less phone with a premium design. Image Source   The phone most likely will boast a 5.5 full HD screen, an Octa core Helio P10, 16 Gb internal storage, 3 or 2 Gb Ram and will of course support 4g LTE. The leaked pictures show a bezel less design which resembles the Z3 though it's not aluminium like the later. Image Source What do you think about the phone and it's design? And how it will fare against the other mid rangers.

Xperia C5 Ultra could be your dream bezel-less phone

last week Sony announced the near bezel-less C5 Ultra, now before we jump further you should know the whole bezel-less thing only applies to its side bezels the top and bottom ones are big while the top one is actually huge, we don't particularly find complete bezel-less phones easy to use but some people actually do so if less bezel size and more screen space is your forte than this phone might interest you, also note that the top bezel is large for a good reason it house's the 13 MP selfie camera . The C5 Ultra is set to launch on 14th august for $425 the price and availability could vary in other countries. C5 Ultra runs on a Mediatek 1.7 Ghz  Octa core procesor, offer's a 6" full 1080p screen, 13 MP camera both at the front and back, 2 GB Ram, 16 GB internal storage, SD card slot and a 2930 mah battery, all in a very sleek body which still is plastic though but looks good with the Xperia design language. Oh and colour options are mint green, black and white. ...

How the Witcher 3 silently became a benchmark for new games

Image Source Every few years we get a good captivating video game and every now and then there is are game of the decade candidates. Up till now Skyrim was considered probably the best role playing game but we reckon we might have to change our mind after playing the Witcher 3 over and over. So what makes the Witcher 3 so good? Let's start off with the fact that I never thought that Witcher 3 would convince me enough to write about it. When it got released, initially, I didn't even download it or had any desire to do so. Just munching away hours playing Fifa 15 and Skyrim (yup, taking care of my two virtual daughters), I had already played The Witcher 1 and 2 but neither of them kept me interested in the story or the sandbox open world. One thing to note is that I absolutely hated the controls in The Witcher 2: The Assassin's of kings, Ie know some of you might find them similar to The Witcher 3 but in my opinion though Witcher 3's controls are generations ahe...
