Samsung copies Apple, announces gold Galaxy S4
NEW DELHI: It seems after witnessing the craze for the recently launched gold editions of the iPhone 5S, Samsung has also decided to tread the golden path. The South Korean smartphone giant has announced that it is bringing in two gold colour models of its flagship smartphone Galaxy S4. Twitter accounts of the Samsung Arabia and Samsung Gulf tweeted pictures of the two models, one brown gold in colour and the other pink gold. Official Twitter accounts posting these photos suggests that Samsung would be releasing these models in the Middle East in the first phase, and then perhaps roll them out to other markets, depending on their initial response.
Mumbai second most honest city in world
London: Mumbai is not just India's most 'attractive' city but also the second most honest in the world. In an experiment carried out by the 'Readers' Digest' magazine, India's financial capital ranked second in the world in returning a lost wallet. The experiment was simple: drop a wallet and see how many are returned to the owner. And Mumbaikars passed the 'test' with flying colours, finishing just behind Helsinki. As per the experiment's results, Mumbaikars returned nine out of 12 wallets they found on the road. Each wallet had Rs 3,000 stashed inside. As part of the experiment, 192 wallets were dropped in 16 cities spread over four continents. The locations - shopping malls, footpaths and parks. But how did those who found the wallets managed to contact the owner? Apart from the cash, the wallets also contained a cell phone number, business cards and a family photo. In Helsinki, the capital of Finland, people returned 11 out of the 12 wallets dropped. Overall, around 47% of the total wallets dropped were returned. Among the cities which fared badly include Zurich, London, Warsaw and Berlin. In New York, eight of the 12 wallets were returned. And Lisbon in Portugal was crowned the most dishonest city in the world where only one wallet was returned and that too by tourists from Netherlands.
