Qualcomm Wants to Charge Your Device 75-Percent Faster With Quick Charge 2.0
Qualcomm wants users to spend less time charging and more time doing, according to their Quick Charge slogan. After introducing Quick Charge 1.0, an in-device solution that enables devices to charge up to 40% faster, Qualcomm is already busy working on Quick Charge 2.0, which is expected to charge up to 75% faster than products without Quick Charge.
While I certainly can’t complain about having a solution for charging up my devices faster, I’d much rather see companies working on a solution to have my battery LAST LONGER!
The only time I really care about having a quick charge is when I’m in a power pickle and need juice quickly. Otherwise, I’d simply like my device to last me throughout the day (no matter the amount of use) so I can set it on the charger at night and wake up refreshed in the morning.
I’m certainly not going to discourage Qualcomm for their efforts, and applaud them for not only looking at solutions to improve power consumption by their chips, but also for looking at ways in which they can get devices charged up more quickly. I appreciate the effort, so kudos to you Qualcomm.

Urban Armor Gear LG G4 Case Review
June 23, 2015 | Vincent Messina
The Urban Armor Gear series of cases for the LG G4 aim to protect and serve your mobile device in a virtual blanket of, well, urban armor. Designed from a patented lightweight composite consisting of a hard outer shell and a soft impact resistant core, this dual layer defense not only meets military drop-test standards (MIL STD 810G 516.6), but looks good doing it. Now, before I go into more detail, let it be know that I have always been more of an au naturel device kind of guy, but after a bit of time with the Ash colored LG G4 Urban Armor Case, I can tell you that this case won’t be coming off any time soon.
Device Review: Droid Turbo, This is the Droid You’re Looking For
January 31, 2015 | Keyan X
The DROID brand deserves the majority of credit for the amount of early success that the Android operating system had in 2009 and 2010. From the original Motorola DROID to the original DROID Incredible, this was the brand of phones that people flocked to if they wanted a phone outside of the iPhone, not just because of a great marketing campaign, but because these were top of the line phones. Ask most of the readers on this site which phone got them started on Android, and you shouldn’t be surprised to hear them say, “The OG DROID.” It’s an iconic phone that helped launch Android to the top.
