Just when you thought there couldn’t be any more smartwatch concepts… Enter Agent, the self proclaimed “World’s Smartest Watch” which aims to combined newer technology that doesn’t compromise battery life for power. Secret Labs + House of Horology has embarked...

Now that Google I/O is over, I guess there’s no better time to reignite the hunt for Motorola X-Phones. It was just over a week ago that the Motorola XT1058, or XFON, was picked up at the FCC. This phone was widely suspected to be the AT&T variant of the Motorola X-Phone (whatever that actually...

Earlier this month, we wrote about the announcement of a game coming to us from Sawfly Studios called Men’s Room Mayhem. Well, that game is almost upon us, coming to the world via the PlayStation Vita, iOS and of course, Android. Publisher Ripstone has announced that the game will be launching...

One of the most well-known electronics companies in the world has finally entered the smartphone market. Panasonic has this week launched its first smartphone offering called the Panasonic P51, a 5-inch, quad-core offering which comes with Android 4.2.2. Key features of the P51 are: 1.2GHz quad-core...

ParkMe was started as a startup to make real-time parking information available to us all, first on the Web, then on iOS, and now finally on Android. In concept at least, the ParkMe app appears to be incredibly handy; who knows how many times I’ve been stuck in a new neighbourhood not knowing where...

Made you look! Ok, so we’re not actually talking about the highly anticipated 5.0 build of Android. But we are talking about Google I/O. Rather than the fully fledged software build we’ve all be dying to get our sweaty hands on, throughout the event were easter eggs that served only to whet...

Google+ received a nice update today that bumped up the build number to 4.0.0.46852618 from 3.6.0.44338848. This update brought all the amazing features of their Photos service to the mobile app. Just in case you don’t recall, Google announced some pretty damn amazing Photo features that will...

About a month ago, we covered a preview for the game Quadropus Rampage, a new game from Butterscotch Shenanigans. In the month since then, the game has entered the Beta stage and quite a few things have changed in the game, so we’ll go through a few of those things now. The menus have been completely...

Many of us foresaw the demise of the Nexus Q, our media streaming friend from Google that never quite took off. This much was alluded to this week when Google announced its improved Google Play Music service, which does not support the Nexus Q as confirmed by Phandroid. If this already wasn’t...

If I said the words “random gun generation”, what game does that make you think of? For many of you gaming folk, it would probably remind you of the triple-A title Borderlands, but after this reading about this new Kickstarter project, you might start associating that phrase with a game called...

One of my primary gripes with Google Glass at its launch was the fact that it did not cater to individuals that already wear prescription glasses; as someone who has to constantly wear glasses, I already have enough trouble trying to watch 3D movies. There have been murmurs and reports that Google has...

Samsung’s second generation of TecTiles went on sale today. Samsung Mobile describes them best: Samsung TecTiles™ 2 are the next generation and evolution of TecTiles, programmable NFC sticker tags that allow users to automate everyday functions of a smartphone through a single tap. TecTiles...

There is one game from my childhood that I got so frustrated with I almost threw away my GameBoy. That game was Karateka. Many of you will remember Karateka from even further back than that and will reminisce about it very fondly. Although there has been a remake released this year for consoles, the...

Today at Google I/O, Google officially announced its new games service, Google Play Games, and this was very exciting because we didn’t see this coming. Google announced that Google Play Games would have features such as achievements, leaderboards, cloud data sync and real-time multiplayer which...

While watching the live feed of Google I/O 2013 (still bummed I couldn’t go) I saw them demo a game on Google Chrome. This game is called Racer. It is the same concept as the slot car racing games because it allows you to go as fast as you want by tapping and holding down on your screen. Now...
