Samsung has a ghastly cover for you to uglify your Galaxy S8

Is Samsung's Galaxy S8 too beautiful for you, with its sleek lines and huge, nearly bezel-less screen? Samsung's got a fix in the way of the 2Piece cover, an indescribably ugly two-piece cover for the phone. 

I mean, just look at it. 
The 2Piece cover does not only take away the S8's grace and symmetry, it also appears to be quite useless when it comes to protecting your phone from certain types of falls, so if you decide to buy one of these, make sure you never drop the phone on its side. 
On the flip side, the 2Piece cover might make it a little bit easier to find that oddly positioned fingerprint sensor without smudging your camera lens, so at least it's got that going for it. 
The price for the 2Piece hasn't been announced, though reports say it's $20. Mercifully, a one-piece, far less ugly case exists (see below), though we don't know the exact pricing for it.
Even if you don't like any of Samsung's S8 protectors, third-party cases will surely appear, so you might want to wait before you spend your money on something you might regret.

New photos show Tesla's massive Nevada factory is coming along

'Guess we shouldn't be too surprised that the what's going to be world's largest factory...continues to get larger. Tesla's Gigafactory, a gleaming white structure amid the muted browns surrounding Reno, Nevada, seems to be coming along, according to photos snapped by NM Group, a company that describes itself as specializing in "surveying and mapping, asset modeling and management, and engineering." The group was recently mapping the area for potential power lines on behalf of an electricity company, according to Tim Hustwayte, a senior client manager based in the United Kingdom. The route took them close to the Gigafactory, and they got some shots that appear to show the factory having bulked up since Tesla's battery cell began rolling off production lines at the start of the year. The Gigafactory employed nearly 3,000 people at the start of the year, less than half of how many people are expected to be employed there...

The Freedom 251 isn’t dead, it’s returned as the Freedom 420 4G feature phone for Rs 420(6.48$)

As we’re all aware by now, the  Freedom 251 smartphone  turned out to be a sham. The makers of the smartphone, resellers to be precise, were unable to follow through on their promise of delivering a smartphone at Rs 251 to the Indian public. Practically speaking, building such a  smartphone was impossible  to begin with. The bill of materials alone would place the cost of the device at over Rs 1,000 and despite claims of unnamed “partnerships” and tax breaks under the Make In India initiative, it would have been impossible to bring down the price of the smartphone and the plan fizzled out. Reality struck a harsh blow to the company and it’s offices have since been shut down. The original owners have also quietly disappeared and at least one has been arrested. It now appears that the company never gave up trying. We’ve learned that the company, now under new management, has taken a more realistic approach to the problem and have come up with yet another outra...
