Phablets don’t get much prettier than the Galaxy Note 5 and Galaxy S6 egde+, but if you’re willing to sacrifice stunning design for crazy amounts of battery life, ZeroLemon has you covered.

With its new 3,500mAh battery cases, which look a lot like rubber bricks, you can triple the battery life of your device for a weekend of use without charging.

So the Apple Watch wasn’t the first smartwatch. It just became the most popular in a hurry.

Shortly after its debut last year, the Apple Watch set out to take over the market it was late to, accounting for two-thirds of all smartwatch shipments in 2015, according to a report by analysts with Canalys.

By Canalys estimates, that’s about 12 million units with more than 5 million Apple Watches sold during the final quarter of 2015.

In a petition to the Supreme Court, Apple says the high court shouldn’t waste its time with Samsung’s high-profile appeal in the two companies’ long legal battle over patents.

Samsung filed an appeal in December asking for the Supreme Court to take a look at how the damages were calculated, but Apple argues that even though it was awarded $548 million, the case is “legally unexceptional.”

Samsung’s decision not to launch the Galaxy Note 5 in the U.K. last year, making the Galaxy S7 edge+ its only flagship phablet, may not have worked out quite as well as it hoped.

The South Korean company is reportedly reversing that decision for 2016, with a plan to deliver the Galaxy Note 6 but not the Galaxy S7 edge+ to Great Britain.

Cases prematurely listed on Amazon for the upcoming LG G5 all but confirm the device will pack dual rear-facing cameras and an all-new design.

LG has done away with its back-facing volume buttons in favor of a more traditional rocker located on the side of the device, but there is a fingerprint scanner situated beneath its camera sensors.
