          1. Google Glasses

Google Glasses is a wearable computer developed by Google Inc.. The glass displays information like a smartphone in a hands free format. Currently only a developers edition is available that costs $1500. A consumer edition will definitely be priced a lot less. I am a fan of innovative ideas and gadgets by Google. In this article you will find more Google gadgets. Currently a few applications are available for the glass but soon more will come with the launch 



Price: Near $400 - $500

The two best features of Google Nexus 5 is that, it is a Google product and thus gets maximum attention and upgrades and second that it comes with v4.4 kitkat .

Either way, for a fairly low price, you're getting basically the same specs (1.6GHz Core i5 Haswell processor, 4GB of RAM, 128GB SSD) that you'd find on a $1,400 Ultrabook.



        8. Nvidia Shield

Top 10 Android action games

My favorite genre of games on google play is undoubtedly Action games. Andriod IOS may not be the best gamming platform for action games, because of controls. But it does have its share in the action games market. Here is a review of TEN games i consider the best action game for your android smartphone or tablet.


Top Ten Android Action Games



          1. Grand Theft Auto: Vice City

                  Welcome back to Vice City. Welcome back to the 1980s. 

From the decade of big hair, excess and pastel suits comes a story of one man's rise to the top of the criminal pile. Vice City, a huge urban sprawl ranging from the beach to the swamps and the glitz to the ghetto, was one of the most varied, complete and alive digital cities ever created. Combining open-world gameplay with a character driven narrative, you arrive in a town brimming with delights and degradation and given the opportunity to take it over as you choose. 



                    







          2. Age Of Zombies


Name any gaming platform and it’s sure to have a zombie game or two. However, most of these are depressing survival fests that go for the horror side of the genre. Well, Age of Zombies is definitely not one of those games. Playing as Barry Steakfries, players step into a time-travelling commando’s shoes and kill zombies all across the space-time continuum in a laugh-out-loud storyline. Shooting zombies has never been so fun – shooting zombie dinosaurs being a hundred times fun than normal.






          3. Zombie World War

Zombie World War is an action game developed by FT Games. A virus has spread and the human race has become infected. Society and governments have lost control, and its up to you to fight for the survival of the human race. Test your skills and battle your way to victory.




Price: Free!!!!!



          4. Shadowgun

A very beautiful looking game, the third-person shooter shadowgun delivers Gears of War style gameplay and graphics to the Android platform. Matching visuals usually found on consoles, this game is gorgeous. But it isn’t just another pretty face – there’s a pretty solid action game underneath all that flash. Smart enemy AI also gives players a challenge that won’t just roll over and die. This is a definite step-up from the current crop and an original franchise for the Android platform itself. Hopefully, we’ll see more games like this soon.



Price: $4.99 USD



          5. Lone Wolf

Joe Dever's Lone wolf - a game about a lonely wolf, the last of Kai Lords and the only survived from a clan of the elite soldiers, written by Joe Dever.

Tired of alien invasion stories where the filthy humans are the good guys?

Top 10 android strategy games

There are many strategy games available on google play.
But finding The one you like is difficult.
Here are the top 10 strategy games availible on google play free as well as paid.

Top Ten Android Strategy Games


  1. Plants Vs Zombies
      
     Plants vs. Zombies is a tower defense video game developed and originally published by PopCap Games for Microsoft Windows and OS X. The game involves a homeowner using many varieties of plants to repel an army of zombies from "eating their brains".
The game uses several different level types and layouts. The game starts out in a front yard, and progresses to nighttime levels, where the gameplay is more challenging, with no replenishing sun unless specific plants are used, the backyard is visited, with a pool added, and the final levels are nighttime pool levels (where fog fills the right half of the screen except when specific plants are used), a lightning storm level in pitch black (except when illuminated by occasional flashes of lightning), and rooftop levels (on the final level, the player must face a huge robot operated by a zombie known as Dr. Zomboss).     
                                    
Price:  $1.20 USD
Link to Zombies vs. Plants:  https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.popcap.pvz_row




    
















    2. Robotek HD

              This game uses a slot machine to determine the attacks players use on their enemies. This may not sound very strategic, but each slot machine has a different effect. This blends elements of thoughtful planning with the excitement of chance. Players outfit their robots with different upgrades and level-up their stats, but still find themselves at the mercy of Lady Luck.



Price: Free!!!

      3. Jelly Defence

             This tower defense game plays fairly traditionally. Creeps come down fixed paths, and players align their defenses to stop them from reaching the end point. However, the game has a quirky style that makes the art and level design really stand out.




Price: $2.99 USD
Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=pl.idreams.jellydefense



      4. Anomaly: Warzone Earth

                   The style of the gameplay has been described as "reverse tower defense", "tower attack", and "tower offense".Players control a convoy of vehicles investigating anomalies around sections of a downed alien spacecraft, which are protected by various types of defensive towers that have to be destroyed.Players do not directly control the vehicles in the convoy, rather they set paths for the convoy to follow along city streets, while also dropping power-ups such as decoys or smoke-screens to aid the survival of the convoy. In addition, players can purchase and equip a number of different units with varying offensive and defensive attributes to make up the convoy. 



Price: $3.99 USD
Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.elevenbitstudios.AnomalyWarzoneEarthHD



      5. Hexdefence

              Fans of open-field tower defense who want their action in a tighter package would do well to check out this game. While tower placement is still used to obstruct enemies, the smaller fields mean that tower placement becomes even more important, especially when it comes to laser towers that can attack multiple enemies at once. It's similar to Fieldrunners, yet surprisingly different because of the scale.



Price: $1.49
Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gotow.hexdefense




      6. Osmos

              The aim of the game is to propel oneself, a single-celled organism ("Mote"), into other smaller motes to absorb them. Colliding with a mote larger than the player will cause the player the be absorbed, resulting in a game over. Changing course is done by expelling mass. Due to conservation of momentum, this results in the player's mote moving away from the expelled mass, but also in one's own mote shrinking.




Price: $2.99 USD
Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hemispheregames.osmos




      7. Feildrunners HD

              One of the original open-field tower defense games has been brought to Android and updated with new, high-res graphics that are optimized for tablets and the latest Android phones. Otherwise, this has the same familiar gameplay, where towers are not just used to attack enemies, but as obstacles to deter their progress.



Price: $2.99 USD
Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.subatomicstudios



      8. Sentinel 3

             The Sentinel-3 mission's main objective is to measure sea-surface topography, sea- and land-surface temperature and ocean- and land-surface colour with high-end accuracy and reliability in support of ocean forecasting systems, and for environmental and climate monitoring.



Price: 3.86 USD
Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.Origin8.Sentinel3 





      9. Great Little War Game

              This turn-based strategy game has players leading their armies into war, utilizing various terrain effects to help get a leg up on the enemy. Meanwhile, players try to command oil rigs to collect more money, in order to summon more vehicles and infantry units. Fans of games like theAdvance Wars series will have to get used to the hexagonal playing field, but otherwise will be at home.



Price: $1.99 USD
Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rubicon.dev.glwg



      10. Greed corp

                Greed Corp is a turn-based strategy game which focuses on strategic battles on a map featuring a land collapsing mechanic.
