LG G Flex
The LG G Flex is an Android phablet smartphone developed and manufactured by LG. First unveiled by the company on October 27, 2013 for a release in South Korea, and carrying similarities to its G2 model, the smartphone is the company's first to incorporate a flexible display, along with a "self-healing" rear cover which can repair minor abrasions on its own. The G Flex was met with mixed reviews by critics, who characterized the device as a proof of concept for bleeding edge flexible screen technology rather than a device targeted towards the mass market. While the G Flex was praised for its durability, performance and the visibility of its screen, it was panned for being too similar in hardware, software, and design to the G2, having a low-resolution display that suffered from noise and image retention issues, and for presenting no compelling justification for the curved display in relation to the device's high price. It was succeeded by the LG G Flex 2 in January 2015. His ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Cloud storage is a model of computer data storage in which data, said to be on "the cloud", is stored remotely in logical pools and is accessible to users over a network, typically the Internet. The physical storage spans multiple servers (sometimes in multiple locations), and the physical environment is typically owned and managed by a cloud computing provider. These cloud storage providers are responsible for keeping the data available and accessible, and the physical environment secured, protected, and running. People and organizations buy or lease storage capacity from the providers to store user, organization, or application data. Cloud storage services may be accessed through a colocated cloud computing service, a web service application programming interface (API) or by applications that use the API, such as cloud desktop storage, a cloud storage gateway or Web-based content management systems.
