TommyLog TECH – Samsung Galaxy Note 3 First Look #VZWBuzz
Okay kids, so I got this cool new Samsung Nalaxy Note 3 from Verizon and ask me a test. You saw it in my boxing video here, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZTSTdUm4rEY now let’s take a look one of the big key features of this thing. Today the thing I want to focus on is the size. This thing is just massive. The Galaxy Note 3 has a 5.7-inch screen. Compared to the iPad Air, which has a 9.7 inch screen, the iPad Mini with a 7.9-inch screen, and the iPhone 5S with a 4 inch screen… you can see the huge difference. Clearly the iPad’s are tablets, but lines are blurred between phone and tablet with the Note 3.

I’m not trying to get very technical here with regard to the sizes and weights. It’s all about what you can see and what you feel — that makes the real difference. Here with the Galaxy Note 3 the extra screen real estate is just significant. All the screens are beautiful and the Note 3 is no exception.

Of course the other big elephant in the room is the operating system in the phone runs. My daily driver, or iPhone 5S uses the IOS and Samsung galaxy three uses android 4.3. There are so many differences in OS’s here, learning a new one…well lets just say its different. More on that in subsequent videos.

TommyLog TECH – Belkin WeMo Switch #VZWbuzz

When my good friends at Verizon asked me to test the new Belkin WeMo Switch, I was more than happy to do so.

This thing is just dead simple to use.  Follow a few simple instructions and you ar ready to go in under 10 min flat. Well mine took a bit longer as I had firmware to update, but my mileage may not be typical.

Anyone looking to add a bit of home automation to your life, this is a super easy way to get started.
