#LG announces G Pro 2 in South Korea #JTB #mobiletech

LG_G_PRO_2_07

LG has just announced the arrival of it’s long anticipated successor to the G Pro, the G Pro 2. The handsets specs are too notch and with a huge 5.9 inch screen it’s one of the biggest phablets to date, being matched by the Oppo N1 and, well, in not including the galaxy mega because it’s no competition to the G Pro 2 whatsoever. The Lumia 1520 has a slightly bigger screen at 6 inches but I’m not sure you would really see a difference when using the handsets.

Specs:

Screen: 5.9 inch IPS 1080p
Processor: 2.26Ghz snapdragon 800
Memory: 16 or 32 GB variants with Micro SD slot for up to 64GB more – 3GB of RAM
Camera: 13mp rear facing camera with OIS plus – capable of recording 2160p @ 30fps, 1080 @ 60fps and 720 @ 120fps.
Dimensions: 157.9 x 81.9 x 8.3
Battery:3200 mAh

The G Pro 2 is a strong contestant in the mobile industry, with great specs like these and the fact it’s running android 4.4.2 out of the box give it a huge advantage over the phones we’ll be see at MWC.

The downside: The western market won’t be seeing the handset until April because LG thinks phablets are an Asian thing, I kid you not.

The device also comes with LG’s knock code feature, which is like the knock knock feature but the screen is divided into different sections and to unlock the device you have to tap them in the right order, this works even when the screen is off, which I personally think is a great bonus.

So what do you think? Will the G Pro 2 make it and become this years best handset, or should LG have waited to put in some newer technology? Let me know in the comments and I’ll see you all next time.

#Ryanair Clears Use of Mobiles During Take-Off and Landing #mobiletech #JTB

Ryanair has announced that it will ease restrictions on the use of electronic devices and allow their use on all its flights during take-off and landing.

The decision comes as Ryanair is in the middle of a major public relations campaign to change people’s perception of the budget airline, which until now has not been exactly positive.

Ryanair follows British Airways’ lead in allowing electronic devices to be used during take-off and landing, with BA having become the first European airline to permit the use of devices like mobile phones, tablets, laptops, mp3 players and ereaders throughout the duration of the flight.

 

Customers’ love

In a statement, Ryanair said: “The IAA [Irish Aviation Authority] is one of the first regulatory authorities in the world to approve this measure and we wish to commend them for their initiative.

“We are working hard to improve our service to all customers and today’s PED [Personal Electronic Device] approval is the latest in a series of changes which we know our customers will love.”

In November, the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) ruled that smartphones and tablets can be safely used during take-off and landing, a decision which followed the release of a report from the Federal Aviation Authority (FAA) in the US suggesting the rules could be relaxed.

All passengers will be able to keep their electronic devices switched on as long as they have flight mode switched on, a setting which disables the devices’ ability to connect to wireless networks.

Safety briefings

The budget airline stressed that passengers will still need to listen to the safety briefings before take-off, especially in relation to the proper use of electronic devices on board.

In October of last year, following a series of high-profile PR disasters and investor concerns, the controversial Ryanair boss Michael O’Leary announced a range of new measures aimed at improving the public’s perception of the company.

These included a more customer-friendly website, relaxed baggage allowances and the introduction of ‘quiet flights’ before 8am and after 9pm where no PA announcements would be made during the flight.

Ryanair carries more than 80 million passengers every year to destinations across Europe.
