WhatsApp Android dark mode looks sick on my Galaxy S9. Way better than on my iPhone 11. I always prefer the dark gray over true black. Had to download the apk from the official website as I still did not get the update. Another benefit to Android I guess. Not to mention you can’t turn …

The Galaxy S8 made me love big phones
I’ve been an iPhone user since the iPhone 4s. The size was good enough for me switching from Blackberry. Then came the Galaxy Note II. I hated the experience almost instantly but had to finish my contract only to get back to the iPhone 5s followed by 6s which was by far the best iPhone …
Why I ditched Dropbox for Google
Where do I start? Dropbox was my go-to backup service when it came to my digital pictures and videos. I still remember discussing cloud storage with my coworker “its a simple, automatic backup for your phone’s pictures”. I was instantly sold.

VRFocus confirmed that Microsoft is working on a new Virtual Reality Headset for the Xbox One. Not surprising since this is a direct response to Sony’s Project Morpheus and Oculus Rift.

New Steam Controller design appears in the latest Steam beta
The latest Steam controller concept update was discovered in the new Steam client beta. While I’m not nig on this controller concept to be honest or even the upcoming Steam OS which is basically a Linux distro; this is good for competition and ideas.

Pokemon goes V.R using Oculus Rift
A dream come true for old school Nintendo and Pokemon fans. Pokemon has gone VR. Well not really but this test created by a developer using a motion control and Oculus Rift. How do I personally feel? I don’t know. Sure it’s cool to be using VR in games but are we there yet? And the …
