Samsung Galaxy Nexus and HTC Rezound discounted at Verizon Wireless

For a limited time, you can get the Verizon version of the Samsung Galaxy Nexus and the HTC Rezound at a discounted price. The Galaxy Nexus is discounted by $50 to the price of $149.99. This is a great deal, because you get a 720p HD Super AMOLED screen, (yes it is Pentile but it is still a great screen) stock Android Ice Cream Sandwich, LTE speeds, and a path to the Nexus updates. The things that make the Verizon Nexus not as good as the unlocked HSPA+ Galaxy Nexus from Google is that the Verizon version has worse battery life, that Verizon put many logos on the back, and that Verizon blocked Google Wallet from the Nexus. This makes the Verizon Nexus somewhat of not a true Nexus. The HTC Rezound is discounted to an incredible $79.99. For this very low price you get a great 720p Super LCD TFT screen, a great 8 megapixel camera, and LTE speeds. The Rezound also comes with a set of high quality Beats headphones that would regularly cost $100 on their own. The bad thing about the Rezound is that it has bad battery life. If you can ignore these small problems about these two great phones, head on over to Verizon and pick up one of these fine handsets.

Review: The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water

It's 7:15 at night. The sun has been below the horizon for quite some time, but it is not yet my bedtime. I go to the cashier and ask her if they are showing my movie. She gives me a puzzled look, checks the queue, and luckily finds the tickets I am looking for. After asking my age she assures me that I have nothing to be ashamed about, nothing to fear. I then pass through the doors and embark on a journey I have been waiting for more than a decade to begin. Back in 2004 Nickelodeon, Stephen Hillenburg, & company released the very first feature film of the SpongeBob Squarepants franchise: The SpongeBob Squarepants Movie . The cartoon had been around for less than five years at the time, and many people did not expect much from its box office release. However, it did do very well for a television cartoon movie grossing more than $32 million opening weekend and receiving average scores of 66/100. This might sound mediocre compared to Oscar winning films, but this is incredib...

A New Leaf

Hello everybody; it's been a while. With school, work, and my extracurricular activities, I haven't had as much time as I would have wanted to spend writing. In the two years since I've last posted, I was vice president, president, and varsity captain for my high school's Academic Decathlon team, went to the California state Academic Decathlon competition twice, was a student commissioner for my city's Parks and Recreation Advisory Commission, a speech coach for Chinese students learning English, earned my Eagle Scout rank, and was accepted into my dream school, the University of California San Diego. With that in mind, I'm also about to graduate high school. I wasn't the speaker that my high school teachers were looking for as graduation speaker, but I thought it would be remiss if I did not say anything. My original speech would seem a bit out of context as an article, so this is a slightly abridged version. "Throughout my high school career, this...

Moto G: Moto Grrrreat!

Before the Moto X was officially announced, people speculated that it might be offered at an incredibly low off-contract price. Some people even guessed that it would be $199 off - contract . This was sadly not true, but Motorola did say that they would eventually offer a device similar to the Moto X, but with a lower unlocked price. Motorola also said that the cheaper device would be geared towards more markets than the United States, like Brazil and other emerging markets. They have finally taken off the covers of the Moto G, and it is almost exactly as Motorola said it would be. It looks like a Moto X, but it has less expensive internals. Many other smartphone manufacturers have made cheaper versions of their flagship handsets, but they almost always turn out to be pieces of junk. Is the Moto G a worthwhile handset, even at its $179 off-contract price? Can you be happy with the Moto G as your primary device. Scroll onward to find out, but you can just look at the title if you wan...
