Only a couple of days after the Samsung Galaxy Nexus sales resumed on the Google Play Store, Google pushed out this great Jelly Bean update to the masses. If you do own a Galaxy Nexus, keep your eyes open for a notification for the OTA (over the air) update. Those of you who own a Samsung Nexus S or a Motorola Xoom and still want your update, Google should get you that candied update pretty soon.

    1. It depends on your network. I'll give you some suggestions, if you are on AT&T you should get the either the HTC One X or the Samsung Galaxy S III (the One X is a smidgen faster than the S III but they are pretty much the same). If you are on Sprint, get the Samsung Galaxy S III. If you are on T-Mobile, get the Samsung Galaxy S III. If you are on Verizon, get the Samsung Galaxy S III. Overall, you can not go wrong with the Samsung Galaxy S III on any network, and if you're on AT&T it is your choice between the One X and the Galaxy S III. I prefer the One X personally, because it has a better design than the S III and is slightly faster. If you are on a network that I did not mention comment your network.

    2. It also depends on the network. T-Mobile uses a HSPA+ network that is slower than LTE and HSPA+ is considered faux g (not real 4G). Verizon, AT&T, and Sprint use real 4G, LTE. Sprint only has a couple of LTE towns up, but they have really slow WiMax 4G that is even slower than HSPA+. AT&T has LTE in more towns than Sprint but less than Verizon. AT&T also has a large amount of HSPA+ cities, but they are known for having bad coverage. Verizon has 300 LTE cities ans many extended LTE areas. Overall, Verizon has the most LTE coverage, Sprint was the first to have WiMax "4G", T-Mobile has many strong HSPA+ areas, and AT&T has many HSPA+ areas and some LTE areas.

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...

Hands-on with the Nokia Lumia 1020.

Smartphone cameras have drastically changed in the past few years. Most smartphone cameras have improved so much that most people use their smartphone as their main camera. Some companies have decided to make  cameras with fewer megapixels and better sensors , while most smartphone manufactures have improved their cameras by adding more megapixels. Nokia is one of these people and they have proven it even more with their latest smartphone, the Nokia Lumia 1020. Look and Feel Nokia's Lumia line of handsets has some of the most unique hardware on the market. If you see something that looks like a Nokia phone on the street, there is a pretty good chance that it is a Nokia. Nokia pioneered the unibody polycarbonate design, and is pretty close to perfecting it. Their Lumia line is full of beautiful, colorful, and unique polycarbonate bodies. The Lumia 1020 does not stray too far away from its siblings. The 1020 comes in three gorgeous colors; matte white, black, and yellow. We ...

Hands-On with the new Macbook: Too Hot

Hot damn. Apple just recently added a new laptop to their lineup. No it is not just an iterative spec update, but rather Apple positions this as the laptop of the future. Well, the future of now. They say your next laptop will be like this, and maybe even the one after that. The company wowed the world with the MacBook Air back in 2008, but can they do it again with the new MacBook? Most of you will hear "MacBook" and a few different laptops will pop into your head. There's the current MacBook Pros, MacBook Air, and then the old black and white plastic MacBooks that were discontinued in 2011. The 2015 MacBook is an entirely new beast. Apple is not pushing the boundaries on what a laptop is supposed to be, but they are pushing the limits in many other areas. The new MacBook comes in three colors: space grey, silver, and gold. The space grey looks exactly like the space grey on the iPhone, and the silver model is identical to the MacBook Air. But if you pick...
