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.

Google Glass to reportedly hit Stateside AT&T stores. Will not, says other sources



Google is taking all that steps to make their wearable Glass available for the public consumers. In the past we have see the American multinational corporation specialized in Internet-related services and products, announce promotional one day sales for interested Google Glass Explorers. Following this, lastly, Google has also opened up Glass Explorer program for their United States based customers, who is ready to spend some solid amount of 1500 United States Dollars for the pre-release Beta version headset.

Today, the leading smartphone tipster, evleaks came up with rumors suggesting, AT&T stores in America will be one of the first places to offer Google's new high-tech wearable Glass for the public customers. Unfortunately, we don't hear about any dates and time to expect the Glass availability, anytime soon. This is kind of surprising, as we have always seen the search giant selling most of their commodities from Google Play Store, not network carriers.

But for the most interesting fact, and to strengthen up our aforementioned words, the PHANDROID source updates tells us that, they have reached out to a Google spokesperson, who allegedly claimed that the company have no current plans to sell their product through AT&T stores in USA. Anyways, nothing here is just official yet.

Samsung Galaxy S5 Active is now official from AT&T



Samsung has officially announced Galaxy S5 Active with the American multinational telecommunication corporation, AT&T. We have seen the new smartphone leak in a few videos and Press renders, earlier this month, where today the South Koreans and the Americans make the handset official for the public.

As seen from the predecessor handset, the Galaxy S4 Active, the new release from Samsung too will fall in line with its Active design, making the smartphone more rugged, shock, water and dust resistant from the original Galaxy S5, (yeah, we admit that the flagship too packs in dust and water resistance on board). The new phone is said to come equipped with IP67-certification rating over the hood along with Military-specifications 810G on top. On the front we will have three physical hardware buttons on the display, accompanied by the the same heart rate sensor and LED flash on the back.

Other than that, there is the traditional Samsung Activity Zone, which launches all outdoor activity-related features in one application screen. The phone is measured at 145.28 x 73.4 x 8.89 millimeters in dimensions and weighs 170 grams on mass, which will be available in Camo Green, Titanium Gray and Ruby Red color options, where you can now order the phone for about 199.99 United States Dollars for a two-year contract from AT&T or just grab it for a regular price of 714.99 USD. You can also bag 50% off on the Samsung made Gear Fit, when you buy the Galaxy S5 Active from the operator.

Samsung's new Active smartphone will ship with a Quad-Core 2.5GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 processor, Adreno 330 Graphics Processing Unit, 5.1-inches Full High Definition Super AMOLED screen panel of 1080 x 1920 resolution display, 16 gigabytes of internal storage (expandable via microSD card slot), two gigabytes of Random Access Memory, 16 megapixels primary shooter on the back with LED flash  light, that is capable of capturing Ultra High Definition screen videos, with a two megapixels front facing secondary camera, Bluetooth 4.0 LE, Near Field Communication and 4G LTE network capabilities, a 2,800mAh powered battery and runs Android's version 4.4 KitKat, with Samsung's proprietary TouchWiz User Interface.

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.

As far as the new picture is concerned, the new leaked Press render aligns well with what we have been seeing previously, with it's predecessor like aluminium finished body chassis, dual camera on the back with two-tone LED flash kind of setup, including HTC's own dual stereo BoomSound speakers and software on screen navigation buttons, from it's front. Currently the handset is suggested to pack a Quad-Core Qualcomm based Snapdragon 800, 801 or 805 processor, clocked at 2.3GHz, 4.7-inches screen of 1080p resolution display, 2 gigabytes of RAM, two primary shooters with dual-tone LED flash light and a 5 megapixels (Ultrapixels) front facing camera, running Android platform's and Sense User Interface's latest version over the hood.
