Infinix Zero smartphone is a wonderful phone, one that will impress, wow and make a lot of sale. This smartphone which we have had the opportunity to play with for a long time has won our admiration and thumbs-up. Conversely, Tecno Phantom Z is a very desirable phone and we have also had the opportunity to play with it for a couple of days now since it was released and I can tell you that its also a beautiful and solid phone. However, after playing with these two great devices from Infinix and Tecno, we are now ready to give you our opinion regarding both devices and how well they stack up to each other. Also, we shall need your opinion on this. in our usual fashion, we shall present you with a color coded table of specifications for both devices and we shall use colors to specify where one device trumps the other in spec strength.  Green coded block means a strength while yellow coded block shows a weakness in relation to the other device.

Rumors of Apple intending to release a 12.9inch iPad is already going through the internet within the past few hours.   The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) first release the notion that Apple will release a 13" iPad in one of their articles in 2013.  By 2014, this news have become more plausible as Bloomberg recently revealed that Apple have started putting things together to make the 12.9 inch device ready for release in 2015. If Apple do indeed release a 12.9inch iPad in 2015, then it will be in direct competition to the likes of Samsung Pro 12inch tab and Microsoft Surface tablets.  The stakes are high in the mobile and computing industry and if the market for larger display tablets is large enough, Apple will definitely join in the market; something we've seen Apple do during Tim Cook reign with the release of iPad mini and the soon to be released Apple phablet - the iPhone 6.

A lot of people get mad when they text someone and no reply is seen however parents hates it even more when they send SMS to their wards without a response especially when it's an emergency.  Well, one mom decided it's high time she  did something about the issue; consequently she resorted to building a smartphone app that will shut down the phone if her text message is ever ignored or not replied.  According to the mom - Standifird, "I need to develop an app that shuts down the phone and you can't even use it".  She calls the name of the "Ignore No More" and it allows parents to remotely lock their children's phone remotely when their calls/text messages are ignored.  Although, this is a good thing however what if the child is driving or doing something which makes him incapable of replying at that point in time? Our opinion is that the app should lock some features of the smartphone like internet, camera etc r

BlackBerry Passport is that awkwardly looking smartphone from BlackBerry geared towards the business oriented folks that want to achieve more from their smartphones. This phone was announced in June 2014 and since then it's gotten a lot of attention mostly because of it's shape and look.  BlackBerry have made the Passport a phone to be desired especially with the specifications and the features embedded in the device. This we shall cover below.  The design and shape of the blackberry Passport phone is crazy and awkward enough to catch your attention. However, there's a reason why the smartphone in question is designed that way. Screen Size and Resolution The BlackBerry Passport is a multitouch screen 4.5inch smartphone with a resolution of 1440 x 1440 pixels having 16M colours. One of the reasons for this highly square screen with 1440 x 1440 pixel is due to the fact that research has it that documents viewed on a mobile device is best with a s

Rumors of Samsung Galaxy Note 4 had been in the wild for a while but no actual word on specifications and pricing until now.  An online retailer have released the specifications and tentative price tag of the Samsung Galaxy Note 4.  From the specs which you can see below, it's obvious that Samsung is pushing the boundaries of smartphone displays and RAM size. Also, the spec shown is a huge upgrade to last year Note 3.  Although camera spec is missing from the image below, one could guess a 16 mega pixel camera to come with the Galaxy Note 4. We shall allow the spec properties in the image speak for itself.  Honestly, it's better owning a Samsung Galaxy Note 4 if power and productivity is important to you than to get galaxy S5 or Galaxy Prime smartphones especially when funds is not a problem.  Due to the large success of Samsung line of Phablets, other competitors like Sony, HTC and even Apple have become are bringing in devices in the Phable
