Remember the creepy LG G Flex ad from last week? Well, the Korean manufacturer has now made amends for that with its new commercial for the LG G Pro 2 phablet. This ad speaks of the smartphone’s ‘Magic Focus’ feature which is very similar to the near and far focus features from the Samsung Galaxy S5.
A couple of weeks ago, we spoke of an update to the WhatsApp for Android application which would allow users to hide profile pictures, statuses or even the last seen info from fellow users. This update has just gone live in some regions and comes with a few other changes as well. The latest of the features is the ability to ‘sponsor’ a friend or a family member by paying for their subscription.

Talon, one of our favorite Twitter clients available for Android, just got a brand new update that delivers dozens of new features. In addition to design and interface improvements, there’s a new Discover section, picture galleries embedded in user profiles, two new transparent widgets, and lots more.
If you live in the U.K. and you’re thinking about picking up a new Sony Xperia Z2 in the coming weeks, then you may want to consider getting it on Vodafone. The company is currently giving the first 3,000 customers who pre-order the device a free 32-inch Sony Bravia TV.
