Heck, I've managed to accidentally wash two devices by leaving them in my pants pocket when throwing in a load of laundry.

Google released its long-awaited Google Now launcher a couple months ago, allowing users to access Google Now with the simple command of the voice.

One draw that Samsung's Galaxy S line has had over the Google Nexus 4 and 5 and the HTC One (though the M8 appears to be following suit) is expandable storage. Pop a microSD card into the slot and you have extra storage for music, photos, and even apps themselves in some cases.

In today's dog-eat-dog world, every minute matters. Whether you're in school or working for the Man, a huge amount of your day is consumed by tasks, assignments, and other kinds of work. Then there's the time you spend playing video games, watching TV, or screwing around on your Samsung Galaxy S3.

I still remember when I had to get up from my comfy spot on the couch to change the channel on my old television.

Privacy features have become quite the hot commodity, emerging from the aftermath of the NSA scandals that rocked the United States this past year.
