Although it mightn't get as much attention as its compatriot, LG continues to churn out high-quality, feature rich smartphones that more than stand up against those of Samsung. The LG G3, for example, is every bit as beastly as the Galaxy S5, and with Sammy preparing to unleash the Galaxy Note 4 at a special Unpacked event in Berlin, LG has just taken the wraps off the G3 Stylus.

The Apple iPhone 6 looks set to be announced on September 9th, and as this as-yet unconfirmed event draws ever closer, the leaks are continuing to pour in. Today, we've what is claimed to be a legitimate sighting of the iPhone 6's insert, but unfortunately, it instead appears to be a fake. Decide for yourself by checking out the shot below.
Google has authored a whole range of great apps across a number of platforms, and today, has rolled out a brand-new one for iOS by the name of 'Slides'. Essentially a presentation app, it's very much a PowerPoint incarnate, and as well as the roll-out of Google Slides, the Mountain View outfit has also updated Docs and Sheets - the company's answer to Word and Excel.
As ever, we're back with another dose of paid iOS apps gone completely free, and if you're always in the market for a bargain, then be sure to check out the download links below alongside the original prices.
Although the blogosphere is abuzz with iPhone 6-related reports, Samsung will argue that its upcoming Galaxy Note 4 is the smartphone to grab this fall, and with the Korean outfit having already confirmed the September 3rd Unpacked event in Berlin, we're now playing the waiting game. Given what we've heard so far, we're not expecting too many surprises, and one feature that will remain without a shadow of doubt is the S Pen. The company's stylus is one of the discernible differences between the Galaxy Note range and the Galaxy S line-up, and in a new ad focused mainly on consumers with children, Sammy reminds us how important handwriting remains in this Digital Age.
Dong Nguyen, of Flappy Bird fame, returned to prominence last week with the release of Swing Copters, and having infuriated mobile users far and wide the first time around, the follow-up is even more challenging on whole new level. So much so, in fact, that the lone developer has released a swift update of iOS and Android which, thankfully, makes it a bit less cumbersome to play. More details and download link can be found right after the jump.
Apple's iPhone 5s mightn't have brought many changes from an aesthetic standpoint, but in terms of hardware, the Cupertino based company really upped the ante. For instance, alongside the much-improved A7 SoC, the device also included the M7 coprocessor, and with the next-gen iPhone 6 set to include an A8 chip, details of the handset's corresponding M7 have now emerged.
Apple's Lightning cable, which was first rolled out with the iPhone 5 in place of the long-standing 30-pin offering, has made life a great deal easier for iOS device users. Not only is the Lightning connector smaller, and more robust, but it's also reversible, putting an end to the days of accidentally jamming and causing damage, but unfortunately, this issue is still prevalent at the traditional USB end. It has long since been suggested that Apple will mark the introduction of the iPhone 6 with a revised Lightning cable that will be reversible at both ends, but whether this transpires or not, there's already a third-party option available.
It's strange that, given its status as a major carrier serving the Chinese market, China Telecom would post promotional iPhone 6 ads featuring renders mocked up by well-known designers, but that's exactly what it has done. In a new advertisement, in which the cellular operator suggests that it will sell a version of the iPhone 6 compatible with the nation's myriad of networks, we also get another glimpse of the fine work of Tomas Moyano and Nicolàs Aichino at Behance, and given how many times we've seen what is claimed to be the iPhone 6's final design, China Telecom's Weibo post is quite a misleading one.
There's scarcely an area of the mobile industry that Samsung has not touched upon, with the company having already delivered multiple smartwatches since launching the Galaxy Gear last year. With Google Glass gathering steam ahead of its release early next year and Facebook having recently acquired Oculus's VR technology, Samsung is angling for a piece of the pie with a virtual reality headset of its own, and apparently, the so-called Gear VR will be showcased at IFA. The notion of an imminent VR headset is nothing new, but now, we have some images to mull over, and below, you can check them out.
