GoPro's Newest Camera Will Cost You $130

GoPro's Newest Camera Will Only Cost You $130

The new GoPro has been announced. Here's what you need to know about GoPro's latest offering and all the packed features that comes with it.

GoPro has launched the highly anticipated GoPro Hero4, and it comes in three variants, the Hero Black, Hero Silver and one simply called Hero, replacing the White edition.

The Hero4 Black will be the highest spec-ed GoPro ever, and will come with the ability to shoot video at a 4k resolution at 30 frames per second. Similarly, they can now shoot videos at 1080p at a whopping 120 frames per second.

One step down from the Black would be the GoPro Hero4 Silver. Although it's doesn't capture video at a frame rate as high as the Black, it does have an advantage by having a LCD display attached to it, something the Black does not have.

Last but not the least is the GoPro Hero4. It is the basic entry GoPro, it may not have all the highest specs but it makes up for its attractive price. It just costs $130

For the Black and Silver editions, night recording will definitely be better thanks to its improved low-light sensors.

Price wise, the Black has seen an increase of $100 and will now retail at $500 whereas the Silver will be available at $400. The Hero will be available as previously mentioned at $130.

The new GoPro will not see any major improvements in terms of battery life. Instead, the capacity of the battery has dropped slightly. However, the internals of the camera could be more power efficient.

With that said, will you be getting one? Watch how the new GoPro fares in their new video here:

Internet Reacts to iOS 8

Internet Reacts to iOS 8

Just after the iOS 8 update came out, everybody in the world tried to download it at once. Rational adults waited until the end of the day to do it, but most kids tried to do it at school, college students killed the wifi at their dorms, inconsiderate co-workers killed their companies' servers as if they were listening to Netflix AND Spotify at the same time.

As happens with anything that people actually care about, the entire internet complained ad nauseum, but there were actually a lot of funny thoughts. Assertions were made about relationships, the future of social interaction, which apps people are going to lock, how long it was taking to download, but more importantly, how much space people need in order to download the thing at all. 

You need more space than the average human being who actually takes photos or enjoys music has free on their iPhone. 

So here are the best reactions from Reddit, Twitter and Tumblr re: the new iOS 8 update. Upvote the funniest iOS reactions and downvote the iOS tweets that weren't that funny. All of these are really great and hilarious, though, so enjoy.

Why Getting iOS 8 Is Driving The Internet Insane

Internet Reacts to Apple Keynote 2014

The Apple Event 2014 happened on September 9th of 2014 and, as always, the Internet had hilarious feedback about the new products being revealed. We got the new iWatch, which is just a watch that has the functions of an iPod Nano with more apps, two new iPhones which are slightly bigger than the iPhone you already have, a new iOS which will stop your girlfriend from checking your texts, and most importantly, a way for you to pay for everything with a quick, mobile solution: Apple Pay! 

Sure, there were lots of people who tried to use the Google Wallet and all those other similar devices that try and do exactly what Apple "premiered" today, but this is Apple. People don't really care what already exists until they make it shiny. 

So, from the release date of the iPhone 6, to pictures of the new Apple Watch, to details on the identity-theft-ready Apple Pay, people had a lot to say about how terrible this year's Apple keynote address was. So from Twitter, to Reddit, to Tumblr and Facebook, here are the greatest things people had to say about the Apple Keynote event of 2014.

Best Pivots in Internet History

Best Pivots in Internet History

The best pivots in Internet history tell the tales of the tech startups who began their journey to the top as one type of company then made a drastic change for the better. It's hard to think about a world without Internet giants like Facebook, Twitter and YouTube, but without their well-timed pivots, they'd be much different from the companies we know today.

It may not be common knowledge, but many of the websites, social networks and online services that we all use daily almost never happened. Before logging into your Facebook account first thing in the morning, think about what might have been if the company remained a site to pick which of two faces were hottest. Imagine how you'd discover viral videos and listen to your favorite music had YouTube remained a video dating site. Try to comprehend how you'd get your news and hear when your coworker checked into Starbucks on Foursquare had the founders of Twitter stuck to their original idea of a home for podcasts.

It's hard to believe that all of these successful companies came from pivots but more companies than most would expect actually came as a second attempt. Before pioneering mobile phones Nokia produced everything from rubber boots to chemicals. Decades before becoming a leader in gaming Nintendo had ill-advised attempts at producing playing cards, operating a taxi service and even ran adult hotels first.

For startups, knowing when to pivot is perhaps one of the trickiest and most emotional parts of the job but as these successful Internet companies have proved, sometimes when things aren't going so well, changing course can be the key between becoming second fiddle to Foursquare, like the original version of Instagram, to becoming a property swooped up for a billion dollars, like the highly successful photo sharing platform that Instagram became.

How To Find Out Whether Or Not Apple Will Replace Your iPhone 5 Battery For Free

If you bought your iPhone 5 between the period of September 2012 to January 2013, chances are you may be able to get Apple to swap out the old battery with a new one, completely free of charge.

Apple has initiated a new iPhone 5 battery replacement program to repair "a very small percentage" of iPhone 5 models sold during the period of September 2012 to January 2013

So, how to find out if your device is affected and therefore eligible?

1. Find your iPhone's serial number. Go to Settings > General > About > Serial Number.

2. Enter your iPhone's serial number on the iPhone 5 Battery Replacement Program website

3. If your iPhone is not eligible... The program will offer you a chance for a refund

Apple will replace the defective batteries of the iPhone 5 devices for free at Apple Retail Stores and Apple Authorised Service Providers.

Apple started the battery replacement program in the U.S. and China on 22 August, but it will launch in other countries on 29 August.

This is not the first time that Apple had to issue a hardware recall. Additionally, Apple has a similar replacement program for the sleep/wake button for the iPhone 5 already in place.

What to Expect on the new iPhone?

Is iPhone 6 Really Coming Out On 9 September?

1. Larger iPhone

2. Sapphire Displays

3. 13 Megapixel Camera

4. Battery Life Improvement

5. iOS 8 and One Handed Use

Seven Best Cloud Storage And Online File Sharing Services Of 2014

1. DROPBOX

Besides working seamlessly across platforms and operating systems, it fosters a broad development community and tons of third party apps thanks to open APIs

2. GOOGLE DRIVE

Apple's cloud storage service doesn't make waves on paper, but it works, and there might not be a better option for those who use iTunes as their central media hub

6. WETRANSFER

The free version is ad-supported and gives you registration-free 2GB transfers as often as you like, with each upload staying live for seven days.

7. MEDIAFIRE
