Jelly, or the smallest smartphone out there

Smartphones are made bigger and bigger, no way around it. Just a few years ago, a four inch phone would be considered big as heck; today, 5ive and a half inch is considered normal. Don’t like it? Tough luck, you don’t have a choice. Unless…Kickstarter, a popular crowdfunding platform, is home to a new smartphone project. Called Jelly, it is a two and a half inch small (!!) smartphone. Project’s funding is already over, with it collecting needed money in only an hour (!!!). Phone will be sold for 59 dollars, and should come out sometime in August, so get ready to grab ...

Random restarts, or Yet another problem with Samsung Galaxy S8

Yep, you read this right – Galaxy S8 has ANOTHER issue. For a smartphone that was supposed to be all grand and glorious to make people forget about the Note 7 fiasco, I’m strangely often writing about this device’s problems. Back to the point; for around a week now, some of the Galaxy S8 users have complained about their phones restarting out of blue. There is no obvious reason for it, according to the reports – their phones are working, working, working and then suddenly they are turning off and on again as if making a self soft reset. People smarter than me suggest ...
