Protect yourself from Coronavirus (COVID-19)

The best way to prevent the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic illness is by avoiding your exposure to the virus. Clean your hands often, use soap and water for at least 20 seconds or a hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol to clean your hands more frequently.
Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth with unwashed hands or after being in the public.
Avoid close contact with people who are sick. Maintain a safe distance between yourself and other people if COVID-19 is spreading in your community.
Stay home if you’re sick and take help from local health authorities and medical professionals.
Make sure to cover your mouth and nose with a tissue or use the inside of your elbow when you cough or sneeze. Properly dispose the used tissues in the trash, and immediately clean your hands with soap and water or a hand sanitizer.
Wear a face mask if you are sick or if you are around other people (e.g., sharing a room or vehicle) and before you enter a healthcare provider’s office. Do not wear a face mask unless you are caring for someone who is sick.

Samsung Galaxy S5 Copper Gold in pipelines of Sprint and AT&T



The middle eastern exclusive shade of the South Korean multinational electronics manufacturer's 2014 flagship handset will be making it's way to the United States customers. Today we have leaks from the Stateside carriers Sprint and AT&T, coming in from the trusted courtesy of evleaks. Previously we heard about the front runner smartphone in Copper Gold, which was also said to arrive on Verizon's wireless network carrier soon.

What we do notice here the most is that the Gold shade on the AT&T version looks to be more brighter and sharper, almost resembling the original Gold flavor that was in hands of the T-Mobile's CEO in the past, where else the Sprint variant seems to match the standard Copper Gold color. We can assume this to be just a matter of leaked Press renders. Unfortunately we don't see any dates of the handset's availability for these US carriers, but we definitely hope this won't be a long wait from now. Other than the changes from the exterior paint jobs, we will be seeing the very same device with unchanged internal specifications out of the box.

The newly announced high-end Android running smartphone has made it's way to the public with no big surprises, as we have already seen the handset leak a number of times in the past reports.

For customers waiting for a phone that is made out of metal chassis will unfortunately be disappointed and we are extremely sorry for reporting you wrong in our previous G3 article, as the new release from LG is still made out of the common polycarbonate with a special metallic skin coating on top of this plastic build, in a brushed metal matte finish, which is basically scratch resistant and also resists fingerprint smudges. The phone will have it's hardware buttons configuration on the back, under the primary camera lens, accompanied by the dual LED flash lights on the right and laser auto-focus sensor towards the left, a setup that has been followed from the company's predecessor handset, the LG made G2. LG has decided to craft their new smartphone out of the basic plastic, in order to maintain the lightness of the device, making it only weigh about 149 grams on mass, as said by the officials. This fresh smartphone from Life's Good is based on "Floating Arc" construction, which measures in around 146.3 x 74.6 x 8.9 millimeters in dimensions. LG's new device boasts a screen ratio of 76.4 percent with ultra-slim and thin bezels all around the vivid display.

The new handset from LG will showcase a 1 WATT speaker on board, with BOOST AMP, providing deep bass and clear treble. G3 also attributes LG's new Tone Infinim feature, which is actually developed in collaboration with Harman Kardon, where the Bluetooth stereo headset connected to the unit will deliver extraordinary audio quality sound in a premium stylish design. The new Infinim also features Name AlertTM to notify it's users that who is calling before you answer.

The phone will be available in colors from Metallic Black, Silk White, Shine Gold, Moon Violet to Burgundy Red, which will make it's debut worldwide in the coming weeks, especially in South Korea on the 28th of May, which is tomorrow, over 170 network carriers globally. And for United States the phone will be sold through the stores of Verizon Wireless, T-Mobile, AT&T and Best Buy Mobile, this summer. The pricing details of the brand new smartphone is yet to be confirmed by LG.

So excited to know what sits inside the phone? Well, the LG G3 will come out of the box running a Quad-Core Qualcomm MSM8975AC Snapdragon 801 processor, speeding at 2.5GHz, with Krait 400 Central Processing Unit, a Adreno 330 Graphics Processing Unit, 5.5-inches Quad High Definition AH-IPS screen of 2560 x 1440 resolution display, marked at 538 pixels-per-inch, which is four times higher resolution than standard High Definition screens and two times higher than Full High Definition panels. For the internal storage options, the phone has got 16 gigabytes of eMMC Read Only Memory (expandable via microSD card slot up to 128 GB) with two gigabytes of DDR3 Random Access Memory, where the 32 gigabytes model comes with three gigabytes of RAM capacity.

The unit will ship with Android version 4.4.2 KitKat installed on board.

And as said in our earlier reads, the phone will have the company's latest revamped Simplified UX skin on top of Android's operating system, featuring the new minimalistic user interface design with flat graphics. "The circular motif of the graphic assets in the new UI was derived from the shape and concept of LG’s logo, reflecting its unique visual style and identity." Other fresh proprietary aspects includes the new Slim Keyboard, where the height of the keyboard can be adjusted according to the user's hands and the position of the thumbs. Smart Notice, a new personal assistant, which provides suggestions and recommendations based on the smartphone's user's behavior, usage and location, to offer the best user information when it’s needed the most in time. Smart security or enhanced security features, like the Knock Code, which enables users to unlock their smartphones with specific pattern or tap, that is set previously. Content Lock help you lock your personal files on your LG G3. Finally, there is the Kill Switch, which allows the G3 owners to remotely lock the handset during the situation of theft.

And if you haven't forgotten, there is the newly sanctioned QuickCircle case, which is available in five colors, that will let the users of LG G3 function and access the features like calls, text messaging, music and camera from the QuickCircle window, without the need to open the flap cover.

The LG G3 is the result of our effort to actualize that idea into a tangible product. And we are extremely pleased with the result," said Dr. Jong-seok Park, President and CEO of the LG Electronics Mobile Communications Company.
