Unfortunately for Blackberry,they've hit ground zero in the mobile market. Apparently, other operating systems(yes,even Windows mobile) are better off than BlackBerry OS. Even though they've adopted Android,their own operating system has 0.00%(the third zero is just me). Check out this photo proof from Gartner Blackberry! Ah! So  they hate you like this? So shameful... Anyway,that's just news. Pray for Blackberry oh! Thanks for stopping by and please,do use our new comments box. You don't need to sign in to google to do so anymore. Thanks

NOKIA 3310 WANTS TO MAKE A BIG COMEBACK

Image
Remember that powerhouse phone,the Nokia 3310? It could last for 4 days non stop,with some battery to spare. It was also damn durable. Drop it from any height,you're only wasting your time,as you'll recover it unscathed. The Nokia 3310 was epic. But,there's always room for improvement. Imagine this: Turning to this: Up Nokia! Recall that the Finnish company dumped their own OS for windows. Now,they've gone to Android with the XL and others.In a new vein, Nokia has got us spell-bound with a comeback of its classic 3310 GSM phone, which was produced way back in the year 2000. The device was one of Nokia’s most successful phones ever. Nokia announced the newly refreshed 3310 with an enormous 41MP rear camera with a proper Xenon flash. Its a PureView cell with Carl Zeiss optics rocking alongside it. According to the company, the 3310 boasts a modified version of Windows 8 with a new ‘ClearDiamond’ 3-inch WXGA (768×1280) display which of course is touchscreen. I...

SAMSUNG GALAXY S8 SPECS LEAKED

Image
We all know Evan Blass right? Well,for those of us that don't ,he is the one in charge of leaking the specs of unreleased flagship smartphones,and he's damn good at it. He released some news about the upcoming Galaxy S8,which,following in the iPhone 8 concepts I've seen,gets rid of that liveable home button. If you're a regular here,you will have noticed how much I love physical buttons. Instead,as seen above,we should have software buttons,so therefore,if there's to be a fingerprint scanner,it should either be on screen,as with the iPhone 8 concepts I've seen,or it should be behind. Either way ,the specs: But though,after the Note 7's mishaps,should we trust this one? Your thoughts in the comments box will be highly appreciated.

APPARENTLY,THE NOTE 7 HAS A BROTHER

Image
*drum rolls* And the winner of the most unprecedented explosion award goes to :The iPhone 7!*applause, applause*. Apparently, its the fine fine boys that are exploding nowadays. The not-so-fine boys are staying put. Check out this story so I don't bore you with my dry jokes and puns. Source:Misstechy.com Just when you thought you’ve heard the last of exploding smartphones—this happens! According to a Twitter user— Brianna Olivas—her rose gold iPhone 7 Plus caught fire while sitting on a dresser. Here is the video below, which has gathered more than 22,000 retweets. Ah Apple! I'm so sorry for your life! Apparently(I have to stop using that word in this post) according to the news reports,her(Brianna Olivia) iPhone 7 developed a fault,so she went to get it fixed. After being reassured that there were no more problems,she took it home. Time passed,and she realised that the service center failed in their duties ,putting her life at risk. Apple's now carrying out  tests...

MERCEDES-BENZ HAS MADE AN AUTONOMOUS CAR,AND WE AT TYCOONTECHNOLOGY LOVE IT

Image
The future is now! This is the tagline of the Infinix mobility company,and frankly,it's very true. And Mercedes wants to show us how. They have created a car,one which the world has never seen:The Mercedes Benz F105. Mercedes has always been for classic people. Their cars are of high quality(my mom drives a GLK 350,so I know this first hand.) and are not really for the common man. But they took a step forward with the advent of this phone and frankly,I'm impressed by what it can do. A driverless car us the pure evolution of tech,and in a bid to show us what the future would look like,Mercedes just unveiled their first autonomous vehicle. However,in order to gain publicity and give some people a first hand view of the car,they invited some bloggers to test it out(they didn't invite yours truly, so don't ask). Reports from their blogs are magnificent. The Mercedes Benz F 015 is fully Equipped with a LED touchscreens, the doors open to a beautiful interior — hardwood f...

VIVIAN NGWODO DEVELOPS THE FIRST AFRO-CARIBBEAN FOOD APP

Image
This is my first time posting anything related to food ,so chill if you don't get me. Meet Mrs Vivian Ngwodo,a Nigerian born British banker(she was a banker,but decided to go through the programming lane) who coded the first ever Afro-Caribbean food app. Our one and only food app developer She coded this app as a result of the increasing unavailability of Afro-Caribbean restaurants in the UK. The name of her app is "chop streets". According to her:“African and Caribbean cuisines have been under-represented for far too long and I am on a mission to make them famous by using technology to provide a platform for people to discover Afro-Caribbean cuisine easily and also set a standard for the Afro-Caribbean food industry in the U.K.” So,chopstreets is a social app that gives you a map if Afro-Caribbean restaurants near you. The app also gives you the freedom to recommend a restaurant to a friend. It was officially launched on the 30th of January,2017. You can get it ...

NFC SMART RING:TECHNOLOGY HAS ALMOST REACHED IT'S PEAK

Image
When my brother first informed me about the NFC smart ring,I felt it was impossible to implement tech into an object as small as a ring. But once again,science has proven me wrong. The smart ting is a beautiful piece of technology,and when you hear what it has to offer,you'll be amazed at it's lightweight and other features. As you can see in the images above,the NFC smart ring allows you to receive updates from your social media when on the go,without the need to pull out your smartphone. This inadvertently reduces the amount if smartphone theft as you don't have to bring out your phone in public. Here are the features of the ring: USB CHARGING The ring allows for micro-USB charging,which is awesome for a ring. But in my opinion,wireless charging would have been better,as USB charging adds to the overall bulkiness of the device. As seen in the picture above,it also has a touchscreen. Cool. THE ABILITY TO LOCK AND UNLOCK YOUR NFC DOORS Smart houses are becomin...

INFINIX HOT S REVIEW:THE ICING ON INFINIX'S LOVELY CAKE

Image
THE GOOD:compact and bright screen,fast processors(octa core 1.3GHz),very light weight(140g),VR support,beautiful cameras(keep reading to see more) THE BAD:Meaty processor and screen puts a strain on the 'ample' 3000MAh battery,attracts fingerprints and scratches easily,no quick gestures,fingerprint sensor doesn't scan wet fingers(please don't try,the phone is not at all waterproof),high performance takes 10% of the battery in just 3 minutes of use. THE BOTTOM LINE:Infinix has managed to put a good frosting on a very sweet cake,but will this frosting put off potential buyers(or eaters?). Find out in my full review(all this cake talk is making me hungry). Infinix had this really good thing going for them. The HOT 3 and HOT 2(Africa's first Android One smartphone)sold like hot cakes(cake talk again),and the NOTE 2 was a massive boom with people(especially me. I remember begging my mom to get me one,but then...). Then they changed their game and decided to rub s...

DESIGN AND DISPLAY The Samsung Galaxy A9 is not slim,neither is it sleek. It is meant for work and work it does. But to be sincere,I would have loved this phone to be lighter and shed off some weight .But seriously,Samsung has got(read had got) this phone going for them until they fed it "phone fat" thereby adding to i...
