Check out “Evertech Sandbox”

If you’re a parent like me who is starting to grow a bit weary of all the apps and games out there that are themed “just kill everyone and win”, here’s one that my 10-year-old son found and loves.

If you’re kid(s) is more of an analytical, problem-solving, thinker/builder like him, I think they’ll enjoy this one too!

Protect Your New P2XL Screen With Tempered Glass From MoKo – UPDATED

Unfortunate Update

  Sad to report that day 2 didn’t go so well. After I finished writing this post, I applied my Spigeon case for normal day to day use. After typical in and out of pocket usage, I noticed the screen response getting worse and worse. I also noticed a “popping” sound, as this protector was slowly but surely peeling away from the screen.

 Could it be that this is still actually a great screen protector, but just didn’t play well with the Spigeon case? Perhaps. But what good is a screen protector if it doesn’t hold up well with a user’s case of choice?

 In either case, I previously mentioned, I have a second protector arriving soon from DMax Armor and will provide a review of that one. Stay tuned!
I’ve seen a lot of questions about tempered glass screen protectors for the P2XL. Problem thus far is that it’s hard to trust many reviews that are out (I’ve seen some 5 star reviews that were posted before the phone was even released).

So I ordered 2 different protectors. This one arrived today. One of the reasons I chose this one was because there are currently no reviews. Also, over the years I’ve ordered cases from MoKo and have always been satisfied with them.

This applied quickly and easily. All cut outs are perfectly positioned. It’s also curved to better fit the contour of the screen. One complaint that I’ve seen with other screen protectors is that there seems to be adhesive only around the edges, so people have commented that they peel off easily or dust collects under the edges. This protector has adhesive throughout that MoKo says can be easily cleaned off the screen if removed. Touch response is excellent. There is a bit of a reflective glare when the screen is black, but it truly doesn’t bother me.

This is day 1! I’ll follow up over time and keep you all posted!

(More) Proof That Apple Can Get Way With Anything

Many Android faithful watched in awe as tech reviewer after tech reviewer posted countless videos and articles about screen issues affecting Google’s Pixel 2 XL.

Some even went so far to proclaim they would never buy another phone from Google because of these reviews. There was even a article referencing a particular law firm and a possible class action lawsuit against Google.

But thankfully, amongst the gossip-filled chatter, there were still many level heads trying to point out that the OLED display characteristics seen on the Pixel 2 XL were in fact nothing new, and certainly not Google’s “fault”. Unfortunately, these level headed voices seemed all but drowned out by the Google bashing….

Then, Apple released the iPhone X. Same type of display. Same type of display characteristics. The only difference? The lack of bashing that Google had endured. And it would appear that Apple will once again get a pass on it – https://www.google.com/amp/s/9to5mac.com/2017/11/03/iphone-x-oled-burn-in-color-shifting/amp/

It’s Your Fault

This is probably the most idiotic of all things that has been birthed in the current cell phone era we live in.

These so-called “tests” are pointless, and reflect no true, real world use.
All because a few clumsy, forgetful people sat on their iPhones a few years back…..

I said it then, and I’ll say it again now – if you are prone to putting any cell phone in your back pocket, what happens next is your fault, not the phone manufacturer’s.

I’m not one to make a habit of poaching other blogs, but this is simple nonsense –
