In the past five months, my Nexus 7 has become a vital part of my daily routine. Compact, lightweight, and feature-rich, it’s everything I want in a tablet. Or at least, it was when it came out. Let’s be honest, I can never be quite satisfied with my gadgets, and the moment I get one […]
During the foreign policy debate leading up to the presidential election, grumblings were heard over President Obama and Governor Romney both giving their full support to the expanded use of drone technology in military operations. Politics are like that. In their quest to show that they are different from that other guy, campaigns prefer for […]
The Idea S2110 takes what Lenovo is best known for (keyboards) and pairs it with a sleek, thin, and light tablet in a package that easily replaces a laptop for light work. Lenovo’s tablet is fairly run of the mill specs-wise, loaded with a dual-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 running at 1.5 Ghz, 1 GB of […]
Motorola has long been one of the strongest Android phone makers. While Samsung may get higher numbers and HTC a bit more of the mind share, Motorola’s original Droid for Verizon is arguably the phone that made Android take off as more than just “not iPhone.” The line is so successful that many users dub […]
It was the middle of my family’s big October cookout/pumpkin-carving extravaganza. Some time after dark, between half-burnt hot dogs and whole-burnt marshmallows, my seven-year-old nephew Owen lost something on the ground and shouted “DOES ANYBODY HAVE A FLASHLIGHT APP?” We laughed, and so did he after we explained it to him, but it got me […]
While AT&T, T-Mobile, and Verizon are all going gaga for Windows Phone 8, the fourth major U.S. carrier has been staying out of it. I’m not sure I blame Sprint for doing so. The somewhat struggling carrier was badly burned by investing in the initial launch of webOS and the solitary Windows Phone 7 phone […]
Laaaaaadies, I know you think you don’t care about cars, but Honda is forcing the subject by making one just for you! Yes, ma’am, you girls (and the most stereotypically effeminate gay boys and poor unfortunate dudes who get handed the keys by Hurtz) finally get the car of your dreams. Honda has made the […]
When looking to save money on gadgets, there’s one place many people may not think to look: the human resources department. In many cases, being employed by a certain company entitles you to a discount with various vendors. Cell phone companies in particular tend to shave a decent percentage off if you have the right […]
I drove from Boston to Queens, NY today so that my family and I could be part of my wife’s nephew’s bar mitzvah. The ceremony was originally supposed to take place in his own community of Long Branch, NJ, but the family was forced to move it to my wife’s parent’s synagogue in Queens because […]
Let’s be blunt, Kyocera doesn’t have the best reputation as a cellphone maker. Known for making budget phones that feel cheap in the hand, with dated operating systems and limited features, Kyocera is hardly any Techcitement writer’s “go to” company. In fact, we generally consider those phones to be barely a step up from feature […]
