Goodbye Flappy Bird! Cretor to take popular game down.


Shoking news which I don't really know how to feel about. Yesterday the developer and creator of this popular game Dong Nguyen announced on his official twitter profile that he will be taking the popuar game down. He did not specify any real reasons why he made that decision just that he can't take it anymore.

He stated that he created that game in only a few days and that he never dreamed that it would become so successful. The game had been downloaded more than 50 million people in this few short days and had brought the creater about 50 000 $ of ad revenue a day.

There was also a Windows phone version announced earlyer thsi week which looks like won't be happening after all. 

You may still have a few hours before the developer takes the app down from it's respectable iOS and Android app store so hurry up.

Apple introducing new color choice with iPhone 5S



As of this week we have couple of leaked images backing up earlier rumors that there will be a champagne color option for the new iPhone 5S. A series of images has surfaced this week showing the typical array of iPhone buttons like the power and volume buttons in attractive champagne color which hints us that the black and white choice won't be the only ones as of this September. Of course without seeing the whole device it is hard to say how legitimate this is.

We already know that Apple's cheaper iPhone model will come in an array of colors including red, yellow and blue but that is something less standard for the baseline iPhone model which had the same color choice for the last 6 and some years. We've seen some crazy ( good) things coming out of Apple under the directory of Tim Cook that we would not see if Steve was still on the head od this large Sacramento company.

So is there room for a third color option for the baseline iPhone model? Yup. A champagne color might not be so bad but it's still early to say upon just a few tiny part leaks. But by the leaks we had the last few months it's sure that the iPhone 5S is ready for an early fall release. In that case we will find more about this third color and more about the device.

iPhone 5C - iPhone for the masses

The last week or two have been packed with rumors and leaked images regarding the new ''cheap'' iPhone. We have pictures of the phone, cases and boxes.

The iPhone 5C is supposed to be Apple's answer to the selection of cheap Android phones which are causing Apple to lose market share. I have to admit this is a great step for Apple to bring the iPhone to the masses and now finally I might be able to afford one. There are of course a few things that don't hold the water in this story.

First of all - the name. The name is supposed to be the iPhone 5C. The C stands for cheap and it is highly unlikely that Apple is going to call one of their phones cheap. Maybe they will introduce a whole new line of devices so the device will not even have the 5 in the name.

The boxes in which the device is supposed to come in are faked. Like the double crossing Apple logos and the curves around the 5C are not consistent.

Over all we can expect the ''cheap'' to be presented at the september or october timeframe when the iPhone 5S will be launched.




The images which have leaked show a full plastic body which will be coming in multiple colors and a glass front. We don't know if the phone will have a retina display but don't be disappointed if it doesn't becouse of the budget cut. The camera is still an enigma but perhaps it will have a 5 MP sensor again because of the price of the device. The processor will be dual core because of iOS 7 and Siri.




Now am I the only one which thinks that the ''cheaper'' iPhone is better looking than the iPhone 5?
What do you think about all this cheap iPhone business? Let us know in the comments.





LG ditches Optimus - LG G2 is here!


We heard before that LG is going to remove the name Optimus from their top of the line smartphones and now we have the first phone with this new policy. The LG G2 is here and believe me you will be impressed.
The phone was showed to the public in a LG official keynote in New York.




As far as the specifications go there's nothing that might surprise us. The most interesting thing is that it's running a 2.26 Ghz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 ( the latest generation) processor and Adreno 330 GPU. The phone has a 5.2'' IPS LCD screen with FullHD resolution but the interesting thing is that the screen is almost edge-to-edge which means that the phone is still usable with one hand. The phone supports Advanced LTE networks. The back camera on the phone has a 13 MP sensor with OIS ( optical image stabilization) and the front camera has a 2.1 MP sensor. The phone comes equipped with 16 or 32 GB of on board storage and 2 GB of RAM memory. The battery is a more than enough 3000 mAh and the operating system is Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean.

Perhaps the most interesting detail is the button on the back which can be used fro many things, changing the volume or launching the camera. The phone also comes with lots of software tweaks like the guest mode which allows you to give the phone to someone to use it without being afraid for your personal files. Also a nice feature is the ability to wake up the device with double tapping the screen.

We don't have the official release date, pricing or the availability of the device but we'll keep you updated.
