Prediction: Tech Gifts for 2012 to look for!

Radio Icon in iPod

Looking Ahead!


I know this is going to be a really silly post to some of you but I thought it was something that I like to talk about with my family and thus I thought it was about time to talk with it about my blog.

I know this will probably not be right or even close but I thought it was about time to at least try to see predict what we will see in the coming year and maybe just maybe I will be close.   I seriously doubt I will be right or on target as some will say but then again.   I was right about the Kindle Fire prediction before it was even announced.

Think ahead for 2012


I don't know what people are going to think but I will give a few insights as to which technology favorites we have now will be even better next year.

Kindle Fire (Affiliate link) --  We will see more screen size, I would think it could get as big as 10.1 or maybe just maybe a 9.7 inch screen.   I don't know if that will happen but I see this as a possibility.   I also think we will have a bigger storage capacity and also maybe even an outlet for a SD or Micro SD card.   All this makes sense because of them wanting to compete with Apple over their Ipad (Affiliate link).


Android Devices -- I see it becoming even bigger than they have been possibly even bigger than an laptop.   I also think we will start seeing more better quality and manufacturers are going to not want to produce quantity but quality.


Apple Struggles -- I don't see anyway around this.   In the coming years because of Steve Jobs Die in 2011 (Affiliate link) and Apple not knowing where their next big thing will come from.   Steve Jobs was the innovator for the company and I think they will have to remake their image but that will be time consuming.


More Pads and less desktops -- I hate to say this but I am going to say that we will see more kids and parents in the future carrying data pads such as Android or even Ipads around town or to wifi hotspots because they are a lot less bulkier and easier  to carry.


Everything will be cloud based --  More and more people will be using the cloud to store they data and private information and thus will need more space and more ways to protect that information.   This will be a security nightmare but I am sure some good companies will blossom from this.


This is some of the stuff that I thought I would point out and hopefully we will see it come true in the future at least to some.   I don't want to see Apple stocks go down even though I don't have any of their stocks it is however going to be a struggle for them as well as other companies in the coming year.

Reviewing the LG 620g From Straight Talk!

Straight Talk LG 620g
The LG 620g!


I had LG 620g Prepaid Slider Phone (Straight Talk) (Affiliate link) for quite some time.  So I know a lot about it and wanted to talk about it.   Before I start talking about it lets at least get the spec's out of the way:


  • Stylish Slider Phone Design

  • 1.3 Megapixel Camera and Video Recorder

  • MP3 Player (cable and SD card not included)

  • Mobile Web Services

  • Bluetooth® Wireless Technology

  • FM Radio

  • MMS picture messaging

  • Text Messaging

  • Hearing Aid Compatible (HAC) Rating: M3/T3

  • Hands-free Speaker

  • Voice Recorder

  • Voicemail and Call Waiting

  • Key Pad Lock and Alarm Clock

  • Phonebook with up to 1.000 entries

  • Downloadable ringtones and graphics

  • Vibration Alert

  • Polyphonic Ringtones

  • Battery Talk Time up to 5 hours

  • Standby Time up to 9 days

  • Includes Charger and Services Guide

 

The Break down of the Phone!


Pro's for the Phone:


  • Hands-free Speaker -- I used this alot while driving and it worked pretty good when needed.  I had no problem talking to my family or friends .

  • The sliding Phone design -- I like that it was slim and made it quite useful because it minimized the surface area of the phone when not in used.

  • Alarm Clock -- Used this to help wake me up in the mornings and had no problems selecting the alarm type and when to go off.   Great morning wake up for me since I am a light sleeper anyways.

  • Vibration alert -- This was also very useful when you have voicemail or text messages and don't want anyone to know you had a alert go off.

  • Mobile Web Services -- Great plus because I good use all my Google accounts with the phone and check my emails and also use my Google voice service with the phone.

  • Bluetooth --  Worked great with my bluetooth headset and you can use any blue tooth headset you have with it and not have any major problems.

  • MicroSD card -- I used this with my 32 gb Micro SD card and it worked flawlessly to backup contacts and text messages to the SD card.   I can even play MP3 files on it.

  • External Antenna --  I used the Wp-359921 cable to extend the  range of the antenna and not worry about antenna strength.   The antenna connector is located under the battery cover.   You don't have to take the batter y out to use an antenna with it.  It makes it just that much more useful.   You can also use the mobile web with an external antenna.


The Con's:


  • Nine day standby time --  It claims to have a 9 standby time but I seriously doubt that.   I can't be for sure because I used it off and on but know it wouldn't last more than 3 days without needing to be charged while in use.

  • Text Messaging -- Once you get to the 100% filled in text messages you just have to start deleting them but it should have a setting to delete the old messages first as new ones come in.   I don't know if this is something they could implement but It is a pain to go through you text messages and have to manually do it to everyone of them.

  • MMS Picture Messaging  --  I loved having a decent camera but the bad part of it is that I couldn't send to anyone.   I don't know if I just did it wrong or not but it never really worked for me.

 

The Conclusion!


I had this phone but the screen broke.  I would recommend this phone to anyone who might need a cheap Straight Talk phone (Affiliate link).     I guess I should of kept better care of it.   I ordered a Straight Talk Samsung T404G (Affiliate link) and am waiting for it to come in the mail as we speak. I will give you a better overview of the new phone next month sometime.  I like that it can do everyone the 620g can do but also has a sliding keyboard for texting.
