HTC One vs Galaxy s4 : What Should You Buy, Part one


Two of the best upcoming smartphones are the HTC One and the s4, both of these are great, but unlike a game in elementary school there is a winner.

Battle One : Screen
Both of these screens are amazing, Samsung is using its Super AMOLED HD display which from my experience works really well in direct sunlight.  Also the colors are very brilliant and have great a more vivid look to it.  It has a PPI of 441.  HTC is going with a Super LCD screen, this from reports looks much more natural with pictures. It will not end up looking as well i sunlight. It has a slightly higher PPI of 461.  The s4 has a 5 inch screen while the HTC One has a 4.7 so you really won't notice the different in size.

The Dark Knight Rises Android Game Review


Let me start by saying this is my favorite Android game of all time.  It has rich and amazing graphics, I mean seriously these graphics are amazing, they make everything else look like a N64.  I thought Riptide GP had good graphics, but this puts those graphics to shame. These visuals are just so amazing.  It is in between ps3 and ps2 quality graphics, probably leaning a little closer to ps3.  

Wait For the Nexus 7 2 or Nexus 7 HD, and Here's Why



The Nexus 7 is the best 7 inch tablet around.  It is fast, has tons of features, has tons of games, and it will always be update with the current reason on Android.  Now after complementing it, I am going to go into a completely different direction, and say don't buy it, well, not yet anyway.  Ok we've covered the basics, of this awesome tablet, but don't buy it yet.  The Nexus 7 2 or Nexus 7 HD will be coming out fairly soon.  Here are three reasons not to buy it not.

The new Nexus 7 will likely have many new features that the Nexus 7 is lacking.  Like it might have a micro HDMI port.  That was many people's bigge

Nexus 5 "leak": Amazing or Untrue

Supposedly the new phone
    LG has "leaked" some pretty exiting news, if you choose to believe it.  It is for their next Nexus brand flagship device the Nexus 5.  It is rumored to pack some pretty impressive features, pretty impressive is an understatement, this phone is amazing.  It is rumored to pack a 16 megapixel camera, twice the current flagship standard of eight. Did I mention that this is capable of recording 4k. It could have a 5.2 inch nearly 4k display with an OLED display, yeah that is the same stuff that is in the high dollar tv's.  It will have 3 GB of ram, that is a GB more than the highest-end Android phones.
   

Note 3 to be 6.3 inches?

  The next note may feature a whopping 6.3 inch screen.  Rumors have been floating around for this size screen for a while now.  Others say it could be 5.8 inch screen, Samsung appears to be making a gamepad that will fit a 6.3 inch screen.   There are no phone that big, and the smallest tablets are around 7 inches. So this makes you think what it could be for,  it seems like it would be for the next note.  I believe that 6.3 inches is way to big however, how would you fit that in you pocket? That it nearly the size of a full sized tablet?  Who would buy this 5.5 inches is big enough for a smart phone in my opinion.  Do you thing a 6.3 inch screen is to big?

Headflat : The Most Ridiculous Android Accessorie.

I was doing my normal look over kickstarter, and I saw this.  My first impression was are you serious, I'm supposed to wear this stupid thing on my head.  I would be extraordinarily embarrassed to wear this thing in public.  See that thing with the Y on the end, yeah you put your phone in that and put that on your head.  Then I though, that what if I was on a long flight, because that would kind of work for that.  Looking down at the little table for that long would kind of hurt your neck.  Then you come to the problem of caring this around, it does not compact and it is about 2 feet long.  So if you have limited space in your carry-on, you can't use it on a plane.  So are you going to ride a bus with this on your head, no you would look stupid.

Exynos Octa VS Snapdragon 800 VS Tegra 4 GPU's


The batte of the soc's, there are three prominent players right now, exynos octa, the Snapdragon 800, and Tegra 4.  Let the battle begin!

GPU's

 The first thing we are going to go through is GPU historically Tegra has been the strongest play in this field, because they have an alliance with game developers.  They are also very good a physically producing a really good GPU,  Tegra 2 can still play most games on the market, and that was from nearly two years ago.  Tegra two had eight GPU's within its self, Tegra three steps that number up to 12, and Tegra four has 72, yes you heard it right 72.  The cores from Tegra 3 and 4 were both clocked at about 500 mhz for each core. So it theoretically could offer 6 times Tegra 3's graphics.   Let's put that into Xbox 360 terms, it has a three core clocked at about 500 mhz. Tegra Four will be equivalent to the Xbox 360 in terms of GPU, because Xbox can use as much power as it wants and get as hot as it wants, here is where mobile GPU's are limited.
