No iconic 'Bong' sound, Apple lovers confused

By
In an historical move for Apple lover, the Apple has dropped the iconic “bong” sound that its laptops make when started up. The chime - a fading F sharp chord - has been used on every Mac since the iMac G3.  The sound has become a cultural icon, and was famously used in the Pixar film WALL-E when the movie’s robot protagonist reboots, although it never made it to the iPhone or iPad. Apple MacBook Pro Apple users are stumbled after the move. Many are still thinking why Apple had dropped it. Latest MacBook Pro, unveiled last week, has no power button and automatically turns on when it is opened, apparently making the startup sound obsolete.   Apple unveiled the new laptops, which feature a new touchscreen “Touch Bar” above the keyboard and Touch ID fingerprint recognition, last Thursday. They are due to be released in mid-November.  While the removal of the startup chime will be welcomed by those who have loudly opened their laptop in meetings and classrooms or u...

By
Today's camera phones are modern wonders, just look at the massive sensors that adorn phones such as theSamsung Galaxy S4, or even the half-phone-half-cameraSamsung Galaxy S4 Zoom for that matter. Some manufacturers are taking a different tack, with HTC looking at creating larger pixels to let in more light. Its proprietary UltraPixel technology means that the flagshipHTC One, and its brothers the One Mini and One Maxcreates some stunning low light imagery.

Best free Android games 2014

By
1. Angry Birds The Android version of Angry Birds is free, unlike the Apple release, with maker Rovio opting to stick a few adverts on it rather than charge an upfront fee. The result is a massive and very challenging physics puzzler that's incredibly polished and professional. For free. It defies all the laws of modern retail. 2. Bebbled Bebbled is your standard gem-shuffling thing, only presented in a professional style you wouldn't be surprised to see running on something featuring a Nintendo badge with an asking price similar to that of a Blu-ray disc. You only drop gems on other gems to nuke larger groups of the same colour, but with ever-tightening demands for score combos and scenes that require you to rotate your phone to flip the play field on its head, Bebbled soon morphs into an incredibly complex challenge. 3. Red Stone There's an awful lot of square-shuffling games on Android and Red Stoneis one of the best. And one of the har...

Best Android apps for 2014... Lets go

By
This list isn’t about the apps that everyman and his dog has – the Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, Spotify and WhatsApp-type apps of the world. No, this one’s focused on the apps that might have slipped under your radar, the lesser known but equally useful applications available inside Google Play, that make your Droid all the more useful in everyday scenarios.  There are currently around 750,000+ applications inside Google Play. Deciding which app to download is often a case of opening Play and checking the Top 10 charts, and that’s great for the most part – but you do miss a lot of good stuff. And that’s why we decided to put this list together. Oh, and we’ll be adding new apps to this list every week. Yes, it’s a grower.   Snapdragon™ BatteryGuru Everyone knows the feeling: you're late to meet a friend in an unfamiliar part of town and you're using google maps to make your way there. Suddenly, you realise you've got a low battery. If you're lucky, you'll ma...
