Google Nexus 5 revision, Google Edition devices, Spotify free & more - Pocketnow Daily Recap

2013-12-21
this is f it now daily do I really sound like that Jaime are you going for some sort of speed talking record geez and yeah I'm actually winning ooh 360p close the potato quality all right that's right it's that time of the week I am hi I'm every bit of this is pocket now this is our pocket now daily recap for last week so on Monday I asked you if you use the SMS bundled application that you get on your phone or do you use are there alternatives because the news were about Google fixing their hangouts application in order to bring better SMS integration aside from the fact that it brings out on a support etc we have three igniting one comments out of which one of them says no I stick to normal messaging because I use whatsapp more often and in my case that's the same thing what's happenin ated my messaging and the messaging almost everybody so I guess SMS pretty much will die soon and photo analysis pocket now yes I use hangouts for SMS only complaint is you can't separately snooze hangouts I'm and hangouts SMS my biggest deal with hangouts is if you're using samsung galaxy phones they integrate the first and second day and then they forget about it so you get to alerts for everything and it's just totally annoying I guess that's the reason why I don't use it the mother Condor says I use stock-outs ms application I don't really understand why people need to use some other why well some stock SMS applications from galaxy phones particularly use a black background that looks terrible and you get uses like for example chat heads from facebook which is actually quite cool so there is a point for alternatives then on Tuesday I ask for your thoughts about the new google edition tablets for example the LG G pad 8.3 that just came out and the Sony Xperia Z ultra Google editions aside from the new white Nexus 7 and while we have 261 comments out of which akmal says agreed i prefer the sony z one google edition over the z ultra and yeah i agreed to that was a terrible google edition photo that i still do not understand then so while says google should actually ask people for google edition iphone and ipads and i'd like to see the reaction and we got 14 thumbs up for this one that's the only reason why it's there but it's never gonna happen then Timothy easily says the new LG G pad google edition is very tempting for next tablet it is I did really like the LG tablet even though I don't like the LG you I it does feel great in the hand even though when you competed against the nexus 7 that is one tough pick then on Wednesday ask you what music streaming service do you use because the news we're about Spotify going free for mobile devices at least on tablets and then on mobile devices like smartphones you get a little catch where you have to shuffle your songs but it's still better than pandora we have 5 11 comments out of which says are says I don't have any available in my country yay for Romania and you know hearing on Lotus I don't have it either what I use is a VPN you all you need to do is actually purchase Spotify the first time and once you do that you can actually use it without the need of a VPN so I think that's actually doable for everybody the Moose antenna says google play music all axes great service the problem with this is that sadly Google services are not available in mostly every other country that's not the United States in part of Europe and that is really a big farm because here VPNs don't actually work they do a little bit but you have to actually be using it to have it active so it is a problem that google music is sadly not available everywhere but put everybody else in the United States it is cool just not the best service though that Matthias Johnson says I was a pirate but nowadays i'm using spotify premium just for the simplicity both now and then and i have to agree with this we were all pirates at some point and the reason why i love spotify is because there are a ton of songs out there that i love but that i don't really want to buy i just want to listen to them every now and then and that's great to have a service like Spotify for that then on Thursday I asked you if you would buy a micro USB flash drive for your smartphone or tablet because the news were that Sony had just built one for themselves and we've got 701 comments out of which jordan says poor Apple users and I have to agree with this man definitely but Michael best says I'll definitely buy a micro USB flash drive it'll come in handy for nandroid backups and yes you nailed the perfect usage scenario I don't really want to be carrying backups on my phone and there are some old photos that I want to carry on my phone either but it's great to have a flash drive in case I lose my phone get it wet or whatever I don't have things on the phone I can use them or whatever other phone i get then sameer says nexus problem solved and yes that would be the perfect solution for Nexus devices with all their storage limitations that on friday i asked you what sort of innovations would you back from the recent internal merger that Samsung had just done what they did was merge their digital imaging department with their smartphone Department and mobile which we do expect to see happening starting next year we have 145 comments out of which Angelo says flexible displays new UI and better camera that matched the Lumia 1020 15 20 years this would be perfect i would love to see a samsung phone with great imaging quality they kind of nailed it this year this year's cameras on their phones are great they were not so good last year but we are expecting something better for next year because this is the future mercure says 3d photo capturing more high res slow motion video and video mode that can play the video back forward after capturing it um you know we have had 3d photography on phones and it sucked oh not everybody use a slow motion it's great things to have but this is mainly software I mean what we really need our better optics for phones and that's really what we want to see with this whole merger and everything and hopefully no big camera hops and so that says nokia lumia 1020 type samsung iteration and android basically a phone 4.5 inch or 5 inch with a good camera good specifications and with removable battery and microsd slot yes those two last things what is the point about having a beautiful camera on that lumia 1020 if you do not have expandable storage or replaceable battery and yes you can get that big accessory to get those things but then you come to the point of why would i want to buy or make my phone more bulky if i could do it on a samsung phone with everything replaceable and that's really a good point that's it for a pocket out daily
