Imagine a Aluminum Nexus 6P..in a 4K video ...... I have tears in my eyes.. Nexus 6P would be my choice. A solid build, better screen, better performance and a much improved camera(even though it is same in 5X).

I have been facing the strangest battery issue since I brought Nexus 4 around 2.5 yrs ago. The issue started with my phone suddenly powering off a week ago. When I tried to power it on, it did not respond. I put it on charging and then powered it up. It did power up, but the battery level...

Apparently the touch screen itself was the culprit. Got it replaced. Back to awesomeness now!

The issue stopped surfacing! I guess it was after I updated a few Apps from the play store. I am not able to point out to the exact cause and fix. But the as I remember now, the issue surfaced after I updated a few Apps. I had episodes of the issue for 2 days after the update. Later I...

If phones were to get cardiac arrest, this must be it! My faithful Nexus 4, kept me going for the past 2.5 years without any major issues. Today morning, all of a sudden the screen froze for a few mins and came back. This was followed by non responsiveness of the navigation buttons. I...

Finally found an App that takes screen shots without using buttons!! For someone like me who has been suffering from a stubborn power button, this is awesome! <Yes, my device is not rooted> App -...

Yes, Google Keep is an excellent alternative. But just wondering how and why is the reminders feature missing in Google Calendar.

Is it only me who finds it annoying that reminders are not a part of the Google calender? Say I need to create a reminder to pay my credit card bills 6th of every month. In the Google calender, I can only create a "EVENT" to remind me to pay my bills, to which I need to give a "from" time & a...
