These days smart phones are becoming the hand held camera of choice due to their ever-increasing image quality, diverse applications and convenience. The holiday season can be exhausting for us, but it is taxing on our mobile phone batteries as well. You might think you’ve mastered your smart phone, but did you know there are lots of myths about battery charging? Follow these tips and you’ll get the most out of your smart phone for the holiday madness. Amp it up! Most phones come with a 0.8amp or 1.0amp travel sized charger.

RapidStudio is over the moon with our showing in the GAPP awards. The GAPP Awards are the pinnacle of excellence in the South African printing industry , so you can understand why we were excited to be a part of it. These awards encourage professionalism and innovation in printing and are sponsored by the leader in knowledge development, The GAPP Magazine. ‘GAPP’ stands for Graphics, Advertising, Print and Packaging, which feature in all of our everyday lives. This year was the inaugural ceremony for the GAPP Awards, and they sure put on a spectacular night. We all got dressed to perfection and felt rather fancy in our handsome suits and beautiful gowns. While the celebration was formal, there was no shortage of fun and entertainment. The catering was superb, with so many delicious dishes for us to enjoy. RapidStudio knows how important framing is to enhance a picture, well; the ballroom at Montecasino certainly made a sublime frame for the perfect evening. Swish tables d...
