Earlier this week, Google unveiled the Nexus 5X and Nexus 6P, confirming all the rumors that came ahead of the press event. The Nexus 5X is Google’s most affordable Nexus option while the Nexus 6P is the best Nexus handset in the company’s history. Google fixed some of the complaints that surrounded the launch of the Nexus 6, but it still isn’t selling the Nexus phone I would want to buy.

Earlier this week, I published my iPhone 6s review. I covered the good and the bad — though there was far more good than bad — and I did my best to discuss all of the key new features on this year’s iPhone. Judging by all of the positive feedback I’ve received so far, I was pretty thorough. Alongside major phone launches though, we also supplement our in-depth reviews with separate coverage that focuses on the best and worst things about a new device.
I’ve now spent a week with Apple’s new iPhone 6s, and my pick for the best thing about it isn’t at all what I thought it would be.

Look, you can admit it. You’re a Facebook stalker. You want to see what everyone else is up to, but you don’t want to show people 487 new pictures of your baby every 12 minutes. You don’t want your high school friends you haven’t seen in 20 years knowing that you just checked in at McDonald’s to score a $0.50 coupon on a Big Mac. You don’t want your grandmother to know that you’re out at club at 3:00 a.m. doing tequila shots with a bunch of people you’ve never met.
It’s OK. We’re not here to judge. In fact, we’re here to help. In just a few simple steps, you can make yourself completely invisible on Facebook and stalk people as much as you’d like without having to worry that they might be stalking you back.

4K resolution might not be a must-have yet for flat-screen TVs, but computers are an entirely different story. If you’re going to buy a new PC monitor for your home or office in 2015, there is no reason to live in the past and buy a 1080p display — especially since you can grab the ViewSonic VX2880ml 28-Inch 4K Ultra HD LED Monitor on Amazon right now for 45% off list.

Engineers in China recently completed work on a mesmerizing 980 ft. long suspension bridge primarily made out of glass. Dubbed the Haohan Qiao Bridge — which appropriately translates to Brave Men’s Bridge in English — the engineering marvel towers 600 feet above a canyon below and is situated between two cliffs. Located at the Shiniuizhai National Geological Park in southern China, the Haohan Qiao Bridge is clearly not meant for the faint of heart.

More than one rumor has claimed in the past that Apple is preparing to launch its own mobile virtual network (MVNO) of the kind that Google is already toying with in the USA. Apple denied those reports, but there’s circumstantial evidence proving that company’s interest in this particular area. In fact, Apple’s senior vice-president Eddy Cue seems to have dropped another clue pointing to such an initiative.

Apple’s new iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus have now been on sale for exactly a week. Incredibly, that means Apple has likely already sold more new iPhone models than most flagship phones will sell in their lifespans; think for a moment about how crazy that is. People switch from Android to the iPhone all the time — and vice versa, of course — but since new iPhones just launched a week ago, we can expect a massive influx of people jumping ship from Android in order to buy one of Apple’s brand new handsets.
When switching from one mobile platform to another, it can be difficult enough just to get used to the new phone and adapt your usage patterns. Then add on the fact that many people don’t know how to move their data from one phone to the other, and it can be very stressful. You can calm down, though, because BGR is here and we’ll hold your hand through the entire process.

Earlier this week, Google unveiled the brand new Nexus 5X and Nexus 6P pure Marshmallow smartphones, which are now available for preorder in several markets. However, there’s already a major problem with the cheaper model: the Nexus 5X doesn’t come with a cable that can be connected to most computers.
