Groovy Gadget of the Month:


LED Faucet-
Do you like glowing lights?
Are you a tech-fanatic?
Do want to jazz up your bathroom a bit?
If you have answered a 'Yes' to any of the above questions, this gadget is for you!
It requires no battery, and its color changes according to the water temperature.
The LED lights are very good energy-savers as well. It has a pocket friendly price of $80.00, inclusive of tax. In my opinion, it is a must-have for all modern households.
It's the faucet of the future! The ultimate bathroom fitting!
Paired with some LED showerheads, and sparkly neon tiles, it's sure to jazz up your bathing experience!


Nokia Lumia 920:
Though it has not been publicized much, the Nokia Lumia has mesmerized the world with its capabilities. No one expected such a revolutionary device. It was certainly a breath of fresh air after the iPhone 5. It has several innovative features:
1. Wireless Charging
For the first time in history, wireless charging is the default way to charge a smart-phone. Several other companies have started developing their own wireless charging technology, but the Nokia Lumia 920 is the first to put it into use as a default setting.
2. Pure-Motion HD+ display 
The Nokia Lumia 920 has a 4.5 inch HD display. It has a better quality than most phones and is qualified as "Retina-grade".
3. Brand new Apps
Apps are something a smart-phone is incomplete without. The new apps in the Nokia Lumia 920 Marketplace take applications to a whole new level. These apps go perfectly with the Pure-Motion HD+ display.
This phone is the smart-phone the world has been waiting for. Although it doesn't have a very pocket-friendly price, it is worth every penny.
Apple IPhone 5:
The most awaited iPhone 5 has disappointed 99.9% of Apple fans (including me). It is quite sad that the iPhone 5 is not the innovative device the world has been waiting for.
All of us were expecting a super-phone with the newest, most amazing technology. However, the iPhone lacks several things.
1. Camera- Apple did a song and a dance about the 'Improvements' in the camera. However, it is still 8-megapixels. There is absolutely no difference between the cameras of the iPhone 4s and the iPhone 5.
2. Speed-The speed of the IPhone 5 was hyped up a lot. It was said to be twice as fast as the IPhone 4s. The fact is that its speed has only increased by 50%.
3. Maps-Generally, Apple's map soft-wares are reasonable, but this time, there have been a lot of complaints about it.
My theory-
iPhones have become a status symbol these days. Anyone who has the latest iPhone is considered “cool” or popular. I think the reason for this is that the first iPhone was a revolutionary device, even though its successors aren’t all that impressive.
