Cyanogen debuts new video series to highlight Cyanogen OS’s best features

Wondering why everyone goes so crazy over CyanogenMod / Cyanogen OS but not willing to flash it for yourself? Perhaps the company’s latest video series is what you need. They’re calling it Cyanogen Bites, a series of short video highlights showing you the best features of the custom Android-based OS.

The first one is all about the app themer which lets you customize how individual app looks instead of having to use the same theme for the entire OS. Cool stuff, that, and you can really only get it if you use CyanogenMod. We’ll be on the lookout for more of these as time rolls on, for sure.

Verizon debuts 3 metallic color options for the Motorola DROID Turbo, arrives May 28th

Verizon has 3 new limited edition color options for the Motorola DROID Turbo on the way, all of which are a bit metallic in style. You’ll have your choice of Blue, Orange or Violet accents for the camera ring, DROID logo, volume rocker and power buttons.

And yes, the effect only applies to the accents — they’re all standard Gray Ballistic Nylon colors, otherwise. It’s not the most insane alternative options we’ve ever seen, but if you are planning to pick one of these up in the near future and don’t mind the added pizzazz then it’s worth consideration.

It’s the same phone we’ve reviewed otherwise, with a promised 48 hour battery life, and Turbo charging. Be sure to check out our Motorola DROID Turbo review if you need some insight before hitting the buy button. The new goods launch May 28th.
