. Besides the 5.5-inch display size, the Nubia Z17 is equipped with a more powerful processor, has 8 GB RAM (there are two other variants with 6 GB RAM though) and is the first smartphone to be announced with Qualcomm’s Quick Charge 4+, putting it on the cutting edge. Check out the rest of the Nubia Z17 specifications below. But,before that,why 8GB RAM? Is this a laptop,or do they just want to be noticed?

Here are the 5 key features every 'great' smartphone should have(2107)

If you're conversant with this blog,I do this topic every year. I've only been around for a year(November will make it a year) and the reason I do this is to make phone manufacturers understand what consumers want. I do this every year because technology improves every day,and we need to keep up. Last year,I would have added 'a great processor' but even budget phones (think budget as in 60000 naira up,not 10-15k oh)have been able to give out great processing power(like the HOT S and Camon C9) for a decent price.

This is my first time of using any phone made by Google(I have never used a Nexus,so sue me!)and they say first impressions last longer. Well,if this is my first impression of this phone,know that more pixels will be shown on this site. Here are the 5 features I love about the Google Pixel. 1. It's Design This is my first time of using a Google Phone,and the design of this one is superb. Many of you may not like the mix of glass and metal found behind the phone,but it's a great design. Yes,yes it looks like an iPhone(which phone doesn't these days?)but this design has something that iPhones don't. I don't know what,and that's weird. In fact,my feel...
