LG G5 AND FRIENDS, AKA Modules! The First Actual Modular Phone?

LG G5 AND FRIENDS, AKA Modules! The First Actual Modular Phone?


The LG G5

This... This is the LG G5, and it has modules, Extra battery, Camera, and more.
Basically the LG G5 is the first look at a modular phone, but nothing we expected as of before. Honestly it looks like a nice Nexus 6P or Nexus 5P but with LG Accessories, and skinned software. This leaves room for way better camera modules from your favorite brands like Nikon, Canon, and Sony. Allthough a Sony camera is nothing new to Android devices, they have carried just about the best camera thus far. This leaves tons of more room for custom roms, and software, but will need to include all of the drivers, framework or flashables for the extras.

My Thoughts

The only thing I worry about now, is does this leave room for LG to release the device with parts that are subpar, just to get the consumer to spend more money on the modules? I've seen somewhere the modules will cost more than $150 depending on the branding, and module you are looking to upgrade. This is by far NOTHING like Project Ara, but it's a start to give us more of an idea. Honestly the device looks pretty good, given it looks like an alien tool for probing, but LG has always been great at this (Starting with the LG G2). All in all, I will review the final product, but will probably not waste my time or money on the modules.. For now. 

Also, Thanks to anyone who has stayed tuned this far, I know I have off and on times, but I always do come back to talk about my favorite devices or anything that intrigues me. Soon I want to start up a Youtube channel, but I'm still a bit camera shy. Writing is getting pretty old though, I can write, and make videos, a vlog with a blog is always good.

Thanks for reading, please share my content! Thanks!

Samsung Galaxy S3 Google Play Edition (USA Versions)

Samsung Galaxy S3 Google Play Edition (USA Versions) I'm excited to bring you this news today, Galaxy S3 users can now download the Google Play Edition of Android (As close as you will get to it) only on USA Versions as of right now. It all started when I got inspired by the sunbeam live wallpaper (How loco?). I decided to disect a Cyanogenmod Rom, first I started with AOKP, but was not satisfied by all the more options. Options are never a bad thing, but when you start with a 4.4.2 Nightly build of AOKP, You don't know where the heck the lockscreen settings are, or in fact I don't think it added any options for the lockscreen ring. They are still working on it, the rom is pretty crystal clear, and pure right now as it is. I decided to revise. I turned to the CM10.2 version, and started to play with it, luckily I soon got all the Google Apps installed correctly with no problem, and now I'm working on a revised build of the 4.4.2 Google Play Edition. I know just...

Apple iPhone X is it Fisher Price? Or VTech?

Apple iPhone X is it Fisher Price? Or VTech? Apple iPhone X is it Fisher Price? Or VTech? That is the question many parents wonder as they buy their child the top of the line iPhone out today, and receive a VTech watch when you sign up with Sprint. $5 a month on a plan for an iPhone X and a plan on the Sprint Flex plan. The iPhone X is a very nice piece of technology I have to admit, and this VTech watch is also very nice, but I wonder why they aren't doing a promo with a first gen apple watch? The iPhone X is an amazing looking device, lack of the home button Apple loved so much, and no Touch ID, because now the FACE is everything. The new iPhone's out later this year should resemble the iPhone X I believe, but will be a plus sized as well. The VTech watch looks good as well, I would wear one, if I can cover up the VTech part, it comes with a motion sensor to make awesome lightsaber noises when you flail your arms like an idiot, and 30 different clock ...
