You may not remember them, but Nokia’s Treasure Tags were some of the coolest smartphone accessories we saw all last year. For those of you who need a reminder, Treasure Tags are matchbox-sized tags that you can attach to your keys, wallet and other important items to make sure they never get lost. The tags’ main feature was to connect to your smartphone via Bluetooth and NFC and then issue an alarm if you try to leave your house without your tagged items.

iPhone 7 concept imagines radical design changes Apple might already be toying with

%name iPhone 7 concept imagines radical design changes Apple might already be toying with by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

The iPhone 6s is already selling better than its predecessors, according to official launch weekend numbers, and while the jury is still out on whether the handset will be able to break Apple’s current quarterly iPhone sales record, the fact remains that the iPhone 6s is the best iPhone model ever made. Many people would dismiss the 6s as being just a minor “S” update over last year’s major redesign, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. However, if you’re bored with iPhone 6’s design, then the iPhone 7 is probably the phone for you.

Apple is expected to make big design changes to next year’s iPhone, and a new concept incorporates some ideas that Apple might already be toying with.

Watch: Stunning HD video of 1955 atomic bomb testing

%name Watch: Stunning HD video of 1955 atomic bomb testing by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

The atomic bomb is one of the deadliest weapons the human species has invented so far. Capable of immense destruction, the atomic bomb is paradoxically ensuring peace between the world’s super powers that have the weapon in their arsenals. After all, nobody wants to see actual atomic bombs detonating left and right that would bring doom to life on the planet. On the other hand, test atomic bomb explosions are an incredible thing to watch, especially if they’re presented in HD.

FEATURED — The worst thing about the iPhone 6s

%name FEATURED    The worst thing about the iPhone 6s by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

After a week with the new iPhone 6s, it has become beyond clear that Apple did a fantastic job on this year’s iPhone. The speed increase is just incredible and the big new feature additions are winners. I have already integrated 3D Touch into my regular usage and it really does deliver on Apple’s promise, letting the user perform common tasks far more quickly and simply. The new camera is outstanding, easily among the best on the market, and there are plenty of other features to fawn over.

Of course, nothing is perfect and the iPhone 6s definitely has some flaws.

I’ve already published my full in-depth iPhone 6s review, and I covered the best thing about Apple’s new iPhone earlier today. In that article, I explained that the best thing about the phone surprised me — but unfortunately, there’s nothing surprising about the iPhone 6s’ worst feature.

%name Apple has as secret team of specialists that address iPhone 6s problems as soon as they arise by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

Apple’s new iPhone 6s models have been out for a week now, and thankfully, we haven’t yet seen any type of ‘-gate’ scandal rear its ugly head. At the same time, that’s not to say that some users haven’t been experiencing some frustrating usability issues here and there.

As we’ve been detailing over the past couple days, some of the more common iPhone 6s issues to arise include exceedingly hot Touch ID sensors, 3D Touch quirks, and in some instances, phones that randomly turn off for no apparent reason.

A video posted by WORLD NEWS HD shows a dolphin swimming to the surface of the water with an iPhone in its mouth that it then hands back to the woman who accidentally dropped into the ocean moments before.

%name iPhone 6s Plus vs. Nexus 6P vs. Galaxy Note 5: Battle of the 2015 phablets by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

With so many quality devices on the market, picking a new smartphone in 2015 is as difficult a choice as it’s ever been. If you’re looking for a great value, the OnePlus 2 might be up your alley. If you prefer experimental designs, Samsung’s Galaxy S6 edge is a great option. Heck, if you want leather on the back of your phone, LG has a flagship device just for you.

It’s not just you: iPhone 6s owners are saying their phones shut down randomly

%name It’s not just you: iPhone 6s owners are saying their phones shut down randomly by Authcom, Nova Scotia\s Internet and Computing Solutions Provider in Kentville, Annapolis Valley

It seems that many iPhone 6s users are experiencing a particularly annoying problem: The device seems to shut down randomly even when there is plenty of juice left in the batteries.

MacRumors notes that complaints about this problem have been spotted on Reddit, Apple support forums and the blog’s own forum pages, so it sounds like this is a reasonably widespread problem. In a nutshell, users have found that their devices shut down completely for no reason, and that only holding down the power button and home button for 10 seconds will get their phones to restart.
