Build Your Own Smart Phone

It may sound hard to believe but Google, Motorola, and Phonebloks are teaming together to make a smart phone that is fully up-gradable. This is an aim they are taking to reduce electronic waste.

As announced by Moto X maker, both tech giants are finally revealing “Project Ara”, a modular hardware system that lets you build a phone with purchased parts. These parts can be swapped out and easily upgraded.

Project Ara is a unique attempt in reducing electronic waste. If you break your screen there is no need in replacing the phone, you can just pull it off it get a new screen. Want more storage and processing power? Buy bigger and faster modules. There is no need to spend hundreds of dollars on a completely new phone!

This is going to be the biggest thing yet in the cellular industry.

Nexus 5 Photo Leaks

Hey GOOGLE FANS! I know a lot of you guys just can’t wait for Googles newest device. So I hope you don’t mind I share a new leaked photo of the up and coming smartphone. A MacRumors forum member posted a photo of what appears to be the Nexus 5. This is the clearest image we have seen to date of Google’s new Nexus phone.

 

Do you feel that warm fuzzy feeling in your stomach yet? I do!

Chromebook Pixel

Some may say that the Chromebook Pixel is the rival to the Macbook Pro’s Retina display. With its crystal clear screen and touch screen capabilities, it just may be. Slightly comparable to Apples 13 inch 2,560×1,600 resolution, Googles Chromebook Pixel  2,560×1,700. Like I said, a slight difference.

But enough with all the talk about screen resolution, check out the tech specs on this bad boy.

The Chromebook Pixel has an Intel Core i5 processor running at 1.8 GHz, with integrated Intel HD Graphics 4000. It comes with 4 GB of DDR3 RAM and either 32 GB (Wi-Fi model) or 64 GB (LTE model) of solid state storage. It features a 12.85-inch, touchscreen, 2560 x 1700 display with a pixel density of 239 PPI; a backlit full-size keyboard; a glass-etched touchpad; and a 720p HD camera.

I’ve also found a video showcasing the beauty and elegance of this browser based laptop.

Google has really put something good together, the only downfall to this is that the price is way to ridiculous. For the 32gb it is priced at $1,299.00, for the higher gig model that is 64gb, it is priced at $1,499.00. Crazy for a laptop that is based only on the internet.
