HTC One Unboxing and First Impressions (Video & Gallery)

 Earlier this week I finally got my hands on the HTC One, which admittedly isn't the freshest phone on the market but is a very special phone for me. The One is the FIRST Android phone I've ever used as a daily device; and it's also the only Android device that has ever had me lusting after it, wanting to own one.

For those of you who follow me anywhere on the internet, I make no secret of my leanings towards Nokia and Windows Phone, but that doesn't mean I can't appreciate and admire another product/OS; which is exactly the case with the one.

The HTC One is still HTC's flagship device, and rightfully so, the device has a stunning 4.7" full HD 1080p screen with a ridiculous ppi of 468. What really got me on this phone though was the design, the beautiful crafted aluminum body that gently curves in your hand is a glory to behold; and is easily one of the prettiest devices I've ever used.The rounded corners, the speaker grills and the chamfered edges are all a beauty to behold, and ooze elegance and a "premium feel". What's more is that this beautiful body packs a decently sized 2,300 Mah battery, as well as a quadcore snapdragon 600 processor with two Gbs of ram, which miraculously still only way a mere 143 grams!

So be sure to check out the unboxing video above, and the images below for a closer look at the device; and expect a full review as well as my thoughts on Android (coming form a Nokia/WP user) soon! If you have any questions, comments or thoughts be sure to leave them down below and I'll do my best to get back to you!

Why I bought an iPad 3 (Plus Unboxing Gallery)

Today for the first time in my life I walked into an apple store (this isn't some exaggeration I've NEVER been to an apple store in my life); yet today i marched right in, as soon as the very helpful salesperson called "Tom" came up and asked how he could help me I told him straight up that I'd like an iPad 3 in white please. This might not seem like a big deal but personally I've NEVER purchased a gadget without first playing with it and testing it out; yet here I was asking to buy one without even checking out that "Fabled screen resolution". Why?

Simply because I became disgusted of my touchpad and it's heavy weight, clunky OS (even ICS) and shitty apps; however the other real major factor that made me buy an iPad was Facetime; I always call my mom on skype and we spend hours talking, but eversince she got an iPhone she stopped opening skype since the  rest of my iPhone loving family facetimed here, rendering skype useless (who cares if once of her children can't call her right? :P ).

Anyways here's the gallery: I specifically got a White iPad just to match the stormtrooper 900 whenever i get it.
