I discovered Cardboard while I was searching for more on Material Design. As I was browsing, I got to read a review on last year's Google I/O and I was curious why all the attendees received a piece of... well, cardboard. I got more and more intrigued about the whole concept and what it stands for that I decided to get my hand on one of them. It's that awesome.
Why I switched to Material Design
It was time for me to change my phone. Although I work heavily with the company device (currently Samsung Galaxy S3), my HTC Radar Windows Phone felt very clunky and outdated. I needed an upgrade and after carefully analyzing the specs of each OS (in terms of UI, interaction and experience of course) I decided to go with Google's Android 5.0 Lollipop, despite its close competitors iOS8 and WP 8.1.
Products I admire #1
I am a device junkie and I am not afraid to admit it. I like a lot of devices and I tend to invest more in them just for the sake of seeing how that experience actually feels. Here is a list of products I admire despite the fact that I might or might not own them (but I actually intend to... someday).
