What constitutes a masterpiece? For the sake of this list, we’ll say that a masterpiece is simply a flawless (or at least a near-flawless) film. Judging a movie is, of course, subjective, but there will always be some kind of consensus. While some people may try to argue that The Last Crusade is better than Raiders of the Lost Ark, no one is arguing that Kingdom of the Crystal Skull is better than either of those Indian Jones movies....

While it has yet to become a significant player in the smartphone market, Mozilla is hoping that its open-source Firefox OS will be a game changer when the mobile operating system gains a larger presence in countries like the United States and United Kingdom.

Let’s take a look at Martin Scorsese’s documentary My Voyage To Italy – the legendary director’s love letter to Italian cinema.

Above illustration: Peach iDollars theme for iPhone by Studio Peach I recently opined that our Android friends are less willing to pay for quality content, namely apps.

He previously urged for a greater quality control in Android Market and his company, owned by all of pro baseball’s teams, has 1....

Update: The patent was granted on 6th January 2015 (via Apple Toolbox) These are certainly not the first flexible display related patent applications that we’ve seen from Apple. A few different Apple patent applications have received attention in recent months, including one for a slap wrist-style bracelet with a flexible display, and others for curved and flexible displays in various iOS device-like form factors. Today we’ve come across a couple of recently published Apple patent applications filed as early as September of last year that further show Apple’s work with flexible displays (via UnwiredView)....

Further tests have confirmed early suggestions that the new radio tech in the iPhone XS significantly boosts data speeds on both Wi-Fi and LTE when compared to last year’s iPhone X. Not all the real-life tests produced the dramatic gains reported in the first test, however … Apple introduced three new radio technologies into the iPhone XS: 4×4 MIMO, QAM and LAA.

Moto E revolutionized the budget android smartphone segment in India and elsewhere. Android smartphones in this segment were known to lag and provide horrendous user experience thanks to cheap hardware and unoptimized software. Motorola’s decision to run the near stock Android OS on a decently powered device helped the cause as well. Moto E 2015 will run Android 5.0 Lollipop out of the box. Nothing much has changed in the camera department, as it still carries the same 5MP camera on the rear and a VGA camera on the front....
