Now is not the time to be only ordinary, rise above the fray and be a Hero of the Day.
From Samsung:
Consumers with either an original Galaxy Note7 or replacement Galaxy Note7 device should power down and stop using the device and take advantage of the remedies available.
One of my associates has an original Samsung Galaxy Note7 and was in the process of getting a replacement. I guess he will have to get a new phone now.
Joanna Stern, writing for WSJ.com:
A quick camera reminder: Looking at the megapixel numbers when comparing phones won’t help you at all. An 8-megapixel camera with a superior sensor can take far better photos, even more detailed ones, than a 21-megapixel camera with an inferior one.
I’m really glad to see Joanna Stern mentions this. For years, a lot of so-called Tech Journalists still measuring the quality of a camera by the pixel-count alone.
Some few years ago, a clerk/salesperson at a store that shall remain nameless adamantly told me that a 13-Megapixel point-and-shoot camera captured better image than an 8-Megapixel DSLR Camera.
On a personal note, Joanna Stern lost one point for using the term “phablet” for a product category. Just call it a big-ass phones and it would’ve sound much better.

It is freaking huge, and a lot of pixels. Pretty sure it has more molecules too. Obviously, it will shipped with Android 5.0, Lollipop.
From The Verge:
The Motorola-made smartphone will start at $649, available for preorder later this month
Yikes! $649?
I am expecting Nexus phones to undercut the competitors, not this time. I bought a 16GB Nexus 4 for $349 before the price drop.
Nexus 6 will be available Late October in the US from Google Play Store and:
