Deal: Moto E (2015) now $89.99, $99.99 for LTE version
Motorola knew how to take on the affordable market when they released their first Moto G. The phone changed everything, offering a low price that was reasonable even for emerging markets, a fair design and performance that didn’t make you want to stab through your smartphone. Now the company has an even cheaper alternative for those who want a more casual experience – the Moto E series.
The Moto E comes with its sacrifices, but its $119.99-$149.99 price point truly makes up for the budget phone’s downsides. The Moto E (2015) offers a very good bang for your buck, and you can pay the higher price tag to get 4G LTE to speed things up. Need more of an incentive? Amazon is offering all three versions of the 2015 Moto E at a substantial discount.
Both the US and Global GSM versions are currently priced at only $89.99, a $30 discount over their original price. Those who want a faster data speeds can opt for the 4G LTE iteration, which costs only $99.99; that’s a $50 discount over the original Moto E (2015) 4G LTE price, and only $10 more than the discounted 3G versions.
You won’t easily find a better deal for a smartphone like the Moto E, so we definitely urge you to jump on this deal if you are looking for something at this low price range. The device packs quite a set of specs considering what you pay for it. It sports a 4.5-inch qHD display, 1.2 GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 200 processor, 1 GB of RAM, 8 GB of internal storage, 5.0/0.3 MP cameras and a 2390 mAh battery that should keep the resourceful device running for a good amount of time (about 6.5 hours of screen-on time!). And if software matters to you, Motorola has been great at keeping its low-end devices just as up-to-date as their flagship devices when it comes to Android updates.
Furthermore, Amazon makes this deal more enticing by offering free one-day shipping to Prime subscribers. Are you signing up? Try not to take too long, as we don’t know how long it will be before this deal closes.
Attacker who ruined your holiday gaming gets a slap on the wrist
If you were hoping that all of the Lizard Squad attackers who took down the PlayStation Network and Xbox Live last holiday would get their comeuppance… well, you’ll be disappointed. A Finnish court has convicted Julius Kivimäki (aka “Ryan” and “Zeekill”) of a whopping 50,700 charges related to various computer crimes, including data breaches, telecommunication-based harassment and swiping credit card data. It sounds good, but his penalty is limited to a suspended 2-year prison sentence and an order to help fight cybercrime — a trivial penalty in light of his overall damage. Even if you limit Kivimäki’s culpability to the gaming network outage, he was still partly responsible for days of downtime at Microsoft and Sony that frustrated millions of players. While he’ll theoretically stay on the straight and narrow for at least a while, the verdict isn’t exactly going to scare Lizard Squad’s other members into becoming model citizens.

The best of Public Access Vol. 4: Mac Powerbooks, Microsoft Bob and more
The past week on Public Access has seen y’all looking both forward and back in tech history. Englishman and US resident Jess James explained how he would change the course of history (and the outcome of the US revolutionary war) with a big screen TV and some Monty Python. Meanwhile, Miné Salkin wrote of being smitten with the Macintosh PowerBook 100 as a child, and Joe Duncan explained the difficulties of selling the Tandy Video Information System in the early ’90s. Lachlan Harris bridged the old and new, making the case that Microsoft’s Bob software (from 1995) never actually left us and the DNA of that helping friendly program remains a part of Windows 10. And, Oded Lilos told us why speech recognition and voice assistants — despite the sizable part they’ll play in our computing future — won’t be replacing keyboards anytime soon.
P.S. The homepage is coming soon! in the meantime you can check out the latest from Public Access right here. Not a member? Apply, and keep the weird alive.

Disappointing, but unsurprising: Samsung Galaxy Note 5 won’t have a microSD slot

Samsung abandoned many notable things in the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge that they had previously held as important to consumers – removable batteries and microSD slots headline the list of omissions. It’s suspected that Samsung did most of this to help slim down the device and we had hoped that with all the extra internal space, the new Galaxy Note device would be able to accommodate at least some of these “luxuries”. Unfortunately, according to a new report, the Samsung Galaxy Note 5 won’t have a microSD slot, which is just as disappointing as it is unsurprising.
Before you polish your pitchforks however, the report also details the new storage technology that Samsung utilized in the Galaxy S6 and Galaxy S6 Edge. Called UFS 2.0, the new technology reads and writes almost twice as fast as the old storage standard, eMMC 5.0. This includes scenarios where the fastest available microSD cards are used, which really paints a picture where microSD is a technology that will eventually be abandoned in favour of lightening fast internal storage. With that in mind, it’s no surprised that countless manufacturers are joining Samsung in abandoning physical expandable memory in their flagship devices – don’t be surprised if the LG G4 turns out to be the only flagship this year with the feature. The future, for now, appears to be cloud-based storage and super-quick onboard storage.
What do you think about the Samsung Galaxy Note 5 not having a microSD slot? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.

Ubisoft launches new trailer for upcoming Rayman Adventures game for mobile
Ubisoft has just announced that the latest game in the Rayman franchise, entitled Rayman Adventures, will make its way to mobile smartphones and tablets sometime this fall.
The game features the familiar side scrolling gameplay that we’ve come to expect from other Rayman titles, so there’s nothing too out of the ordinary with this one. However, judging by the graphics shown off in the trailer, this game looks extremely polished, and will come with some killer graphics.
Rayman Adventures will star none other than Rayman himself, along with his new viking buddy, Barbara. During the duo’s quest to save the elusive “sacred tree”, the Enchanted Forest much also be saved by hunting down a multitude of ancient eggs that have been stolen and scattered all over the world.

Although the trailer doesn’t specifically mention that the game will come to Android, we have a pretty good feeling it will when it launches in the fall. No pricing information has been given quite yet, either, though both Rayman Jungle Run and Fiesta Run are available in the Google Play Store for $2.99 each. We know details are a little scarce for the time being, but we’ll let you know once Ubisoft releases more details about Rayman Adventures.
Sprint to begin selling the budget-friendly Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime on July 10th
If you’re looking for a budget-friendly, capable Android smartphone, you may want to check out what Sprint has to offer in the next few days. On Friday, July 10th, Sprint will begin selling the Samsung Galaxy Grand Prime for just $240 without a contract. You can also pick up the device for only $29.99 with a two-year contract (after $50 mail-in rebate), and well-qualified buyers can get the device for $0 down and $10 per month for 24 months.
Although the Galaxy Grand Prime doesn’t offer up the best specs we’ve ever seen, it certainly could be much worse. The device comes with a 5-inch qHD display with 960×540 resolution, a 1.2GHz quad-core processor, 8GB of on-board storage and microSD card expansion up to 128GB. It also has an 8MP rear-facing camera, 5MP front-facing camera and a 2600mAh battery. The device features 4G LTE connectivity and runs Android 5.1 Lollipop out of the box. It should noted that the press release states that the device comes with just 8MB of storage, but we’re assuming Sprint meant 8GB in this case.

If you’re interested, the Galaxy Grand Prime will be available both in-store and online when it launches on July 10th.
ChargePoint wants to put a $500 electric car charger in your garage
If you have an electric car, you’re probably familiar with ChargePoint: it’s the largest electric vehicle charging network out there. It has chargers all over the world, and a lot of them are free to use. Later this summer, you’ll be able to install one of the chargers in your own garage — but that’ll cost you $500.
The ChargePoint Home EV charger was first announced back at CES, but back then it wasn’t clear how much an in-home unit would cost. Now we know: the in-home unit will sell for $500-750, depending on how much power it puts out, how it’s installed and how long its charging cord is. Want a 32 amp hard-wired installation that can charge a car up to 25 feet away? It’ll cost you extra. Want to save some cash? Go with a shorter (12 or 18-foot) cable, a slower 16 amp, 12 RPH (range per hour) charge speed and a plug-installation.
This isn’t ChargePoint’s first residential charger (the company has been making those since it was known as Coulomb), but is definitely its smartest: the ChargePoint Home is a WiFi connected system that integrates with the company’s larger charging network and its associated mobile app. You can track where and when you charged your car (at home, work or a public station) and schedule remote charging and charge reminders. It even integrates with Nest to facilitate energy savings or shut the system down in case of a power surge. ChargePoint hasn’t announced the official sale date yet: just that it’ll be available on Amazon later this summer.

Capcom is making a light-up ‘Mega Man’ helmet
Want to up the ante on your costume for the next big comic convention? Capcom will soon have you covered. The game developer has teased plans for an official, wearable Mega Man helmet that lights up. It won’t grant you cybernetic powers, but it definitely looks the part — combine it with Think Geek’s Buster Gun and you’ll look like you’re ready to take on Dr. Wily. While Capcom hasn’t even mentioned a pre-order date, let alone a release date, it could be worth holding out if you’re determined to trump other would-be Blue Bombers.

The FBI needs your help finding 250 sextortion victims
Lucas Michael Chansler is a 26-year-old sexual predator sentenced to 105 years in prison after pleading guilty to multiple counts of child pornography production. Over several years, he tricked roughly 350 teenage girls from 26 states into giving him explicit pictures of themselves by posing as a teen boy and befriending them online before threatening to distribute the photos on social media. He was eventually tracked down to his Jacksonville, Florida home when one victim reported his extortion attempts to the FBI and the The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. While the Feds have been able to locate more than 100 of his underage victims, nearly 250 young women have yet to be identified. And that’s where you come in.
“It’s important that we find these girls so that they don’t have to be looking over their shoulder, wondering if this guy is still out there and is he looking for them and is he going to be coming back,” Special Agent Larry Meyer said in a statement. “Some of these girls, now young women, need assistance. Many probably have never told anyone what they went through.” To identify victims, the FBI has posted a list of aliases, email addresses, MySpace accounts and AIM logins Chansler used. So if you suspect that you, or someone you know, may have been victimized by this creep, contact the FBI or NCMEC right away.

HTC One E9+
HTC has released a slew of high-end devices following the launch of its flagship One M9, and such device is the HTC One E9+. As the name suggests, the One E9+ is a larger iteration of the One E9, and like is smaller sibling, is made entirely of plastic, without losing its premium feel. The One E9+ also features a Quad HD display, and comes with the same 20 MP rear camera as the One M9+, without the Duo Camera setup, as well a 4 MP ultrapixel camera up front, which is great for taking selfies in low light conditions. With a powerful processor, smooth performance and stutter-free software experience, fantastic display, and HTC’s signature front-facing BoomSound speakers, now with Dolby Audio, the HTC One E9+ is a great alternative to its more expensive full metal counterparts, with the difference in build material allowing for a significant difference in the price point. The HTC One E9+ can be found on Amazon for $487, and though it comes with 4G LTE support, it is a good idea to check for compatibility first.

Sony Xperia Z3+
Sony launched their latest flagship, the Xperia Z4 in Japan, but it took on the Xperia Z3+ moniker on its release in other international markets. As has been the case with the Xperia flagship line, the Xperia Z3+ retains the design language and build quality of its predecessors, with a few subtle improvements across the board, along with the necessary change in the hardware to better compete with the current crop of flagship smartphones, including a larger battery, that also comes with fast-charging capabilities. With signature Sony elements available, including it being well protected from dust and water with its IP68 rating, the latest high-end offering from Sony is another fantastic choice for fans of Sony around the world. The dual SIM version of the Sony Xperia Z3+ is available on Amazon for $649, and while it does come with 4G LTE support, it is a good idea to check for compatibility first.
Specs

Samsung Galaxy S6
With the latest addition to the Galaxy S flagship line, Samsung introduced the much needed overhaul that the series needed, and while it retained the signature Samsung look, the metal and glass unibody design offered the premium feel that a flagship from Samsung deserved. Of course, it just isn’t about the build quality either. Samsung continues to set the standard in other key areas as well, with the Galaxy S6 featuring a fantastic, vivid, Quad HD display, one of the best smartphone cameras around, and a completely stutter and lag-free software experience that has been perfectly optimized for its in-house processing package. The Samsung Galaxy S6 is definitely one of the best smartphones of 2015 thus far, and for those that need it, is also available in a dual SIM variety, available on Amazon for $575. Keep in mind that since this is an international version, you will have to check for 4G LTE support with your network carrier first.
Specs
