A new Indiegogo campaign has managed to catch our attention as one of the strangest implementations of a smartwatch we’ve seen yet. Known as the HeadWatch, this device basically is a smartwatch which can also double as a headset when unhooked from the strap.

Sony has just announced Xperia Themes, which is a stock option to allow deeper customization of its smartphones. This can be accessed through the settings of every Xperia device running Android 4.3 or above. With this, users will be able to give their handset’s UI a complete makeover without having to rely on third party solutions from the Google Play Store.

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.

Getting free apps and services with a new smartphone isn’t rare; handset makers often use freebies to encourage consumers to adopt their latest product. But Samsung’s $600 “Galaxy Gifts Package” that comes bundled with its new Galaxy S5 is worth talking about.
