I need to go out this afternoon and buy a sander. A sander. Sheesh. What happened to me eh? If I didn’t have to get one of those, I’d probably upgrade my rather battered LG G3 for an LG G4 because, well, just check out these prices. At …

Let’s face it, this isn’t going to be the greatest thing in the world. Quad-core it may be, but in all honesty it’s going to be about as terrible as most of the 7″ Android tablets you see on eBay direct from China. It’s called the “Q8″, even …
