At IFA 2014 in Berlin, Asus finally announced the ZenWatch, its first wearable powered by Android Wear. Crafted from high-quality materials using traditional watchmaking techniques, it wants to be the prettiest smartwatch you can buy, and also one of the most sophisticated.

HTC has teamed up with Google to give selected smartphone owners up to 100GB of Google Drive storage absolutely free for two years. The offer applies to those with a One M8, Desire 816, and the Desire 610 — plus a number of popular devices that were launched last year. But there are some caveats.

At a hearing earlier today, in Frankfurt a court ruled that mobile taxi firm Uber can no longer operate in Germany due to inadequate insurance and licensing for the type of private drivers it employs.

However, the San Francisco startup have turned a blind-eye to the ‘unfair’ ruling and insists that its drivers will continue to operate throughout the ban period, even though they could face fines up to an eye-watering €250,000 (Euros) per trip.
