Alcatel Onetouch today made a few announcements ahead of CES 2015 next week, and by far its most exciting is for the WATCH, a brand new smartwatch that looks downright gorgeous. The device is clearly inspired by the Moto 360 — arguably the finest wearable so far — but it does have one big drawback… or at least it would seem so.

Motorola’s second-generation Moto X is now available with 64GB of storage if you buy it through Moto Maker. The device was originally available in 16GB and 32GB options only, but without a microSD card slot, some potential adopters felt that just wasn’t enough.

OnePlus has been promising its own Android software for a while, and that’s exactly what it delivered to kick off 2015. The new custom ROM, which is currently in alpha, is based on pure Lollipop and can be flashed using the TWRP custom recovery.

We’ve already heard whispers that LG’s second-generation G Flex will be making its debut at CES 2015 next week — and now a new report from South Korea promises the device will be powered by Qualcomm’s latest 64-bit Snapdragon processor and have LTE-Advanced connectivity for ultra-fast data speeds.

You know that feeling when your 5-year old kid drives a better car than you? That may be set to become a reality thanks to Henes, which recently revealed its Broon F8 child-sized electric supercar — boasting state-of-the-art design, adjustable driving modes and, oh yes, a 7-inch Android tablet in-dash infotainment system.

Not only can the tablet be used for controlling headlamps, alerting the driver of potential faults, and switching between manual and auto braking modes, but it’s also possible to switch the car over to a Bluetooth-based remote control — letting mom or dad pilot it around, while your kid uses the screen to watch movies or play around with the car’s sound system.
