One Plus One "The 2014 Flagship killer smartphone"


The best smartphone under 300$ (16 GB variant)price bracket!!
It doesn't make sense that the OnePlus One should be this inexpensive.

Under the hood is the quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 801 processor, clocked at 2.5 GHz, and backed by the Adreno 330 GPU. You also get 3 GB of RAM, which is still a bit a rarity even in certain other flagship devices.A 5.5-inch 1080p IPS display brings some great display quality to this very affordable smartphone.

The device has a sleek design that comfortably fits in your pocket, and the phone's powerful specs deliver a smooth, lag-free performance for a relatively low price.

The One Plus One supports LTE connectivity and costs around 300$ for 16 GB variant and around 350$ for 64 GB variant, this Android-powered smartphone is one of the best deals you can get today. It's a terrific price for a 4G phone, especially if you don't need the fancy features found on the $700 HTC One M8 or the $600 Samsung Galaxy S5.
Yet there are some significant "buts" in this proposition. Getting your hands on a One is harder than you'd think.Currently One Plus is selling the phone only via an odd invite system. But Don't worry One Plus have announced that they will now sell their devices using a preorder system which is yet to be introduced in late October.

"Google Cardboard" a DIY VR headset

Google Cardboard is a VR which is inexpensive as compared to the Oculus rift which costs around $300.It was presented at the Google's I/0 2014 Keynote and which can transform you smartphone into a Virtual Reality (VR) headset.
As the title says it is a DIY but some of you might think that i am kidding but  i am not ,you can make  Google cardboard all by yourself by using  new or reusable cardboard is up to you – by easily downloading here.

But if you are not able to make it on your own you can order yourself a Google Cardboard from other websites as they have readily made Google Cardboard available for around $25 dollars which you can buy  by going to this website.

Now a question arises how to use Google Cardboard,it's easy just put your phone into the cardboard , hold it up to your face, and you're immersed in a virtual reality world.Turn your head around to scroll through a row of apps, and on the left side there's a metal washer that's held on by a magnet. Flick it down to click on something. It's incredibly intuitive, and equally impactful.
Currently it works on following devices
  • Fully compatible
    • Google Nexus 4 and 5
    • Motorola Moto X
    • Samsung Galaxy S4 and S5
    • Samsung Galaxy Nexus
  • Partially compatible
    • Magnetic input not working
      • HTC One
      • Motorola Moto G
    • Magnetic input not working & headtracking/rendering issues
      • Samsung Galaxy S3






SKULLY AR-1- "The smartest Helmet ever made in History"



Skully Ar-1 is every bikers dream it can sharpen your senses on roads.
Skully AR-1 is a motorcycle helmet which is founded by Marcus Weller. It has a head up display and a rear-facing camera.It runs on a android operating system, which can be controlled with the help of voice commands.Users can see rearward through the heads-up display and the rear camera.Skully also has a Bluetooth installed on it which enables the user to stream music from their smartphone's and also you can use GPS on the helmet and the helmet narrates the user the directions. And also after the development of this upcoming "Smart Motorcycle helmet"will make Motorbiking a lot more safer.
Of course, great ideas like this often come with a few catches. First of all, the Skully AR-1 isn’t something you can buy easily, as of now it is currently gathering funding through Indiegogo.Also 
its goal was to raise $250,000 through Crowdfunding but it reached a whopping amount of $1,410,026 which is more than five times of the initial goal.The other big catch is that early bird buyers will have to give up $1,400 for a Skully AR-1, and it is expected to cost $1500 when it becomes fully available through retailers. It is estimated that it will be available next year in the month of may.
