Developer Scott Cawthon has just released Five Nights at Freddy’s 3 to the Google Play Store, following the recent release of the PC version. The first two games quickly made their way to the top of a few of our Best Apps lists, so we couldn’t be more excited for this release. FNAF3 promises all of the same frightening aspects of the first two games, plus many more surprises.
If you’ve never played any of these games, here’s a quick recap.
LG Display recorded some excellent financial number to close out 2016. The company announced it had record-breaking operating profits of 904.3 billion won ($778 million) for the fourth quarter of 2016. That’s a huge increase compared to the 61 billion won in operating profit it recorded in the fourth quarter of 2015. This was the 19th straight operating profit quarter for the company.
LG G6 will have world's first QHD+ display with 18:9 aspect ratio
Verizon has just announced that pre-orders for both the Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge will begin on April 1st. While we now have an official pre-order date, the carrier has yet to mention when the phone will actually become available.
Verizon is one of the first US carriers to reveal any specific dates regarding the handset. Sprint, T-Mobile and AT&T (among others) have announced that they’ll eventually carry the devices, but these carriers only allow users to pre-register for them so far.
Remember that completely legitimate Comet Smartphone Kickstarter campaign we told you about a few days ago? As it turns out, Comet Core, the company behind the finned smartphone, has cancelled the funding campaign after it raised upwards of $25K of its $100K goal. Apparently, Comet Core is unable to provide its backers with the Smart Earphones that were originally available in one of the Early Bird packages, due to some sort of violation of Kickstarter’s policies and procedures.

TL;DR
The Vivo Nex features a pop-out camera, but the mechanics are hidden. JerryRigEverything removes the painted glass backing to expose the phone’s internals. Some shielding is also removed to expose the camera module. The Vivo Nex is one of the most unique handsets on the market at the moment, thanks to its pop-up front-facing camera. Zack Nelson, the voice behind the JerryRigEverything YouTube channel, thought it was crazy to hide the internal mechanics of the camera, so he decided to remove the phone’s colored, non-transparent backing.

Every entry in the main line of Pixel smartphones has come with a nice perk: the ability to backup as many photos and videos as you want at their original quality through Google Photos. However, the Google Pixel 4 and Google Pixel 4 XL photo backup system won’t allow for this.
Instead, when your Pixel 4 backs up photos and videos to Google Photos, they will be at the same “high quality” (read: slightly compressed) that everyone else gets with any other smartphone.
