TECH INSIGHT

Welcome to the first post on this side of Unicalnation. First, a little introduction to what this is all about.

We, and I actually mean I will be keeping you up to date on the biggest and latest happenings in the technology industry. From phones to computers to OS to whatever tech catches your fancy I will bring it here or show where to get them. Some days we will post tricks for your pc, phones, and day to day life hacks in getting around some tech problems, but we will not tell you how to hack. That’s above my pay grade. So for this week this is what we have;

An update to the popular KitKat OS has been added. The KitKat 4.4.4 will be available on several devices like Samsung s5, LG G3, Sony z2 and so on but yet no updates for techno phones. What a bummer.

Google have released the Nexus 6 phone and Nexus 9 tablet both running the latest guesssssssss! Android 5.0!!!! The new android OS is called Lollipop, take note they asked me first before they published it. For more details check below. The new OS uses the material design and brings a new beauty to the table http://www.androidcentral.com/android-50-lollipop-nexus-6-nexus-9-and-nexus-player-welcome-next-era-android
IPhone 6 has been doing well, awesome reviews, great new iOS8, helps slim down your account balance and lots of new features that some android users mock that they’ve had since 2012. There’s a new ability many people just got to know after they got their iPhone 6 and 6 plus. It has a built in shaver. Yep…if u think I’m lying ask Google or hit this link below. https://storify.com/cbccommunity/hairgate-reports-of-iphone-6-pulling-out-hair-exa
Windows is set to release a windows 10 soon skipping the number 9. So we guessing 8.1 is 8+1. Well, we look forward to something that will rival the success of Windows XP.

The Blackberry Passport was released this month and is still getting hype. Quite a lot of business corporations are picking it up all over the World. It’s boasting the new BB OS 10.3 and the blackberry blend app amidst others. The blackberry app ecosystem is getting bigger with the OS 10 being able to harness .apk (i.e android apps) for those not available in their own appstore.
For the soccer fans, FIFA15 is out and I know we having some people already getting their hands on it. I’d like to hear your reviews EVERYDAY!! Someone save me pad oh!

Samsung have just released the Galaxy note 4 amidst the shouts news that their quarter 3 has had low sales for the past 2 years. Let’s see what the next great release will be.
Also many of us have been hearing of wearable tech like wristbands, watches. Android have made their Android wear OS to be compatible with their mobile devices so have companies like Samsung, Apple, and LG. the only company not actively participating is Microsoft. Wonder why.
