Heated and cooled collar for human

On the island of Taiwan it is very hot in early June: the temperature reaches 40 degrees Celsius. Logically, people had the idea to create a wearable gadget that cools the neck of its owner.

Form factor surprises: it is a collar, which must be connected to an external battery. For example, if you connect collar to Xiaomi battery 10000 mAh it will work for 4 hours. If you turn on the cooling mode, the minimum available temperature will be 15 degrees. You can also activate heating mode, which provides the temperature from +25 to +35.

360-degrees сamera for smartphones

Another amazing thing that we found at the exhibition Computex 2016 is a tiny camera with a viewing angle of 360 degrees. It should be noted that it works only with smartphone: you need to connect camera to the microUSB connector of your smartphone.

Despite its modest size, the camera records video in Full HD relosution. The developers are doing a special emphasis on the fact that their camera is much smaller than comparable cameras from large companies LG and Samsung.

Battery, which can pierce or cut

If you try to cut or to pierce a lithium-ion battery, it will ignite. But Taiwanese developers have a solution. They brought to the exhibition Computex 2016 a special battery with which you can do anything – to cut, pierce, drop. At the same time it will continue to work!

Developers said that it is a perfect battery for sensors in smart clothes. Already, Taiwanese managed to make a belt with a capacity of 1500 mAh and a pair of insoles, each with 500 mAh.

Emergency phone for iPhone owners

Taiwanese developers have their own interesting approach to the problem of quickly discharged iPhone. Instead external batteries, they offer a special case with a pocket in which to insert a small phone-dialer.

Emergency phone has a very simple set of functions only calls and SMS. But the gadget is working for more than 3 days of talk time.

Stereo camera for smartphones

Another compact module with the camera allows you to turn your smartphone into a stereo camera. You need to connect a little thing to USB, and you can start to record 3D video-in a special supplement.

Then put your smartphone in Google Cardboard or other suitable virtual reality device and enjoy your movies.

It’s not all the amazing gadgets that we met at Computex 2016, but definitely one of the most memorable.

Feature of the new Sony Xperia Z5, Xperia Z5 Compact, and Xperia Z5 Premium

In short, it was interesting to see what conclusions made in Sony, and the current IFA is ideally suited for this purpose: the main line has not been updated for a year, the time is ripe. On the eve of IFA was summoned to the office of Sony Mobile, which showed general all, namely three new smartphones: Xperia Z5, Z5 Compact, and Z5 Premium. Given my love for the brand, and I moved with all existing in nature device Sony, waiting for a meeting with a beautiful look.

The companies insist that the driver to restart the line in the design of Sense of Unity, replaced the usual Omni Balance, was the change of the top management of Sony Mobile. The new president also announced new approaches were measured in Central Asia for the company 5 key countries (Russia certainly is not one of them), and to draw the appropriate conclusions. Particular attention was paid to the chamber, which is in the hands of Sony engineers each time shamefully lost herself, and suddenly realized that you can not go on living.

Appearance smartphone if changed, not so much: Xperia Z5 aluminum frame and kept the usual lines, but has acquired a laser engraving and a back surface of the glass with the effect of frosted glass, allowing to obtain a matte surface, not to fingerprints. Devices retained moisture protection (realized and Capless USB-port), but it is not promoted as a feature for extreme, but rather a solution designed to help people who are like me, half asleep, put the smartphone into a glass of water on the nightstand. Apparently, the customer service recovery devices tired after swimming in the sea water.

The main feature is, of course, the interface a fingerprint scanner. As Sony does not become once again “to dig a flight attendant,” trying to figure out where it will look better – on the back surface or bottom of the screen on the right side? There were original – sent the scanner on its side. Similarly, at the spot where the thumb is usually if you take the smartphone in hand. And it really is a good solution. However, there are questions about the reliability of such a scanner – after all the surface due to the width of the ribs just 7.3 mm, and captured only a part of the finger, which reduces the reliability of protection. On the other hand – to use the new solution proposed by Qualcomm: the scanner is based on ultrasonic technology, which solves the problem with wet hands and others. Ultrasound is recommended even on the wet skin – knows anyone who has ever been to the US. So only the best conductivity. However, that’s the theory, but in practice, the scanner works and works fast. As an option, the possibility of a pleasant fingerprint proof of purchase and stuff like that. It’s really important option.

Novation number two – a modified camera. Redesigned main module and its acquisition are the so-called hybrid autofocus. We saw it in the M5, where he came from professional cameras Sony Alpha. The bottom line is that using phase-contrast focusing, allowing us to obtain the best results in less time. Including during video shooting. Another nice feature – 5x zoom. Supported software and image stabilization.

The smartphone has a battery capacity of 2900 mAh. The battery supports Fast Charge Quick Charge, but not smart charger kit required for its use. The reason is simple, and at Sony do not hide it – fast charging considerably more quickly drops off the battery life, but it need not all. So if someone really need and who are willing to take the risk, then he can afford to buy the necessary charger. The smartphone will be available in white, black, green and gold colors. Interestingly, for the first time at Sony implement the concept of the unity of body design and interface system. That is white and white Z5 receive desktop interface.

Xperia Z5 Compact looks like a small copy of the “big” flagship. On this interpretation, insisting the company. This is not entirely true. Indeed, the unit was more compact – the screen was 4.6 inches diagonal and a resolution of 1280×720 pixels against FullHD at Z5. In this way, the body is shorter and narrower than the Z5, but a bit thicker – 8.9 mm. But the material is changed frame – on the perimeter of the plastic used. There are 4 colors available: white / silver, black, coral and yellow.

The third version – Xperia Z5 Premium – this is the main innovation of Sony. Before us is the first smartphone that gets a full-fledged 4K-display with a diagonal of 5.5 inches. This 0.3 inches more than the basic model. Differ and design elements such as the black model has a mirrored back surface design, used in the rest of the familiar effect of frosted glass, border and frame made of polished stainless steel. Distinguished and battery – 3430 mAh battery is used, which is logical explains the power of the new display. One of the interesting features of note implemented in Z5 Premium technology to upscale, you can deploy HD and Full HD-quality content to 4K. But the question arises whether all the smartphone with it’s very small screen 4K image? There is a feeling that the good is not more than QuadHD-screens. Net marketing and nothing more.

Another interesting news regarding all models – support for active listening to Hi-Res music, for it will require a new headset MDR-NC750, which must be bought separately. This is a really cool option. In addition, the headset can be used to record audio when recording video.

And now the bad news. I wanted a new line of smartphones has received a new processor, ideally – Snapdragon 820, which is now in operation at Qualcomm. But, alas – we see the same processor as in the questionable Xperia Z3 + – 810th Snapdragon. The Sony say they have done a serious work, and that the new revision 810-th overheating problems solved. If so, this is great news, because otherwise the model 4K screen raises serious questions. There’s something not performance.

Innovations in line Z5 many devices. But they have to be tested. Hand on heart, like that of the Sony, happened. But you never know what we want.

The prices for new items not yet been announced, even in Europe, which will be calculated on the basis of the euro at the time of the announcement. The terms of sales all the clearer: Sony Xperia Z5, and Z5 Compact and will be available in early October, and the Xperia Z5 Premium – in November.

The post IFA 2015. First look at Sony Xperia Z5, Xperia Z5 Compact, and Xperia Z5 Premium appeared first on Raqwe.

Looking for a device that is emblazoned on the photo above, the fantasy begins to invent all kinds of scope – a cup, cap, toy, part of something, etc. In fact, we face a portable Bluetooth-column. However, quite unusual, one might even say the only one of its kind because it is made of silicone, and its shape can be changed. Who came up with such a miracle? Ukrainians, for which already receive the award in the international design competition iF DESIGN AWARDS in February 2015.

Immediately worth mentioning – the company produces exclusively aiia souvenirs and works only on the wholesale market B2B. The minimum order is 1,000 units and in the near future retail sales are planned. But the product is well worth that manufacturers pay attention to it and already under its own brand started selling in retail.

Scope of delivery – SSSSSpeaker

Packing in form and content is not as original as the column itself, but her unusual markings – a box of its kind is also instruction. On the bottom painted devices that can operate a boom box and the left is a nice Life hacking of which is capable of music – to reduce pain and alleviate depression. Inside, there is an inscription that a full charge lasts only an hour, and how changing the shape of the acoustic Souvenirs affect the sound. Ah yes, the box can also be found a short USB-charging cable.

Design controls

As already mentioned above, aiia SSSSSpeaker received the award in the category Audio / Video contest iF DESIGN AWARD. The latter happened for a reason because the design of the column, and indeed the whole concept of the original and fresh. At first glance view of surprises and little enters into a stupor – because of this we have not yet seen. The main part is made of plastic, on top of which there is a diode illuminated logo, which you are free to choose when ordering party. The very same silicone “cloak” is removable and rests on two latches, it is folded in both directions and has an ear for imparting stability to a flat surface or to listen in limbo.

Materials are selected well, there is no hint of cheapness, it is very common to see in low-cost Chinese portable speakers. Controls … one whole, but more is not necessary. A slider is responsible for turning on and off. When activated, SSSSSpeaker is available for all devices with Bluetooth and a woman’s voice from the speaker speaks loudly “BLUETOOTH”. If you have already been paired, the column will automatically connect to your device. Radius little more than five meters, at large distances begin to show some noise. Also on the case have Micro USB socket for charging.

Areas of use, ergonomics

I love all sorts of such portable audio gadgets because the music is constantly creating the rhythm of life and stresses the mood, and the headphones are not always relevant for some sessions. Received wireless speakers to the test, I immediately started thinking about its scope. It so happened that on the same night my wonderful bike-ally broke and I had to sort it – just at this moment SSSSSpeaker came in handy and the steering column to the accompaniment of Noel Gallagher has moved much faster.

The next day the sun shone and it was decided to go “to drag an iron” to Hydropark. Engage in headphones never really loved, and the ability to play music at a low volume portable speakers are very useful. The form of the model allows you to direct the sound to the listener is thus not distract others. And if someone like sound Kobzon on your boombox, it is always possible to “squeeze” Silicone cloak in the opposite direction, allowing the sound spread out at 360 degrees.

The next day came out on the skewers into the woods, well, as you know well the column came in handy. And other days aiia SSSSSpeaker constantly played in the evenings at home background. Minimum dimensions and flexibility allow you to borrow column with you anywhere and not worry about transportation – even in your pocket wear. As it so happened that after a week of using this miniature bagatelle I attached to her.

Sounding

I must say – given the size, is loud and fun, although the quality and can not be compared with the specialized solutions. The latter, for obvious reasons, they sound much better. Thus, aiia SSSSSpeaker sounds surprisingly good as a souvenir, but it’s not as good as a separate Bluetooth-column. This should be considered. In this case, the sound of the device can be completely different, all thanks to the form factor. Disclosed silicone cone – get directions with a characteristic sound horn taste, crushed board – surround sound is opened a cone down, closing the speaker – the sound is muted. You can experiment all you want, in this case, the sound will change. I personally most impressed with the sound folded position silicone cone.

Battery

The manufacturer claims five hours of continuous music playback. A full charge takes about an hour column. In practice, the way it is, is only to say that music played a little more than five hours, which is really great.

Results – SSSSSpeaker

American companies aiia managed to create a really interesting product which although of the souvenirs, it could be an independent gadget.

Liked:

+ The original design
+ Ergonomics
+ Minimum dimensions

Developers from India seem to have decided to beat the Chinese colleagues on low-cost gadgets. A striking example – a local company Karbonn, which announced a new smartphone.

Device called Titanium Dazzle and has adequate though not particularly outstanding performance

Disadvantages, however, easily redeems price.

Worth the budget gadget just 5490 rupees. Equivalent to the amount of 88 US dollars.

For these users have little money device with a 5-inch display type IPS (854 by 480 pixels), 4-core chip clocked at 1.2 GHz and 1 GB of RAM.

In addition, there are SSD 8GB, battery capacity 1850 mAh, microSD card slot, and a modest 2 cameras: 2 megapixel front and rear 5 MP (with LED flash). Another “on board” located modules WiFi 802.11 b / g / n, GPS and 3G HSPA +.

Plays the role of the operating system Android KitKat 4.4. Nice “bonus”: there is control gestures and eye-tracking support. This allows us to put the video on pause when the owner turns away from the screen and much more.

Sales start in the coming days. In online shopping Karbonn Titanium Dazzle go on 2 colors – white (with gold inlays) and black.

The device is able to boast a 4.5-inch LCD display with a resolution of 960 by 540 pixels. Indicators are modest, but this is compensated by the presence of protective glass Gorilla Glass 3. Scratch the novelty will not get any.

Also in the presence of a special coating to repel water and dirt.

Motorola Moto E – announced the second generation phone

Specifications – depending on the version of the phone – a little different. Assembly with 4G LTE modem as CPU uses 4-core Snapdragon chip 410 with a clock frequency of 1.2 GHz. Plus Adreno 306 graphics accelerator.

In the early spring in the Catalan capital will host a real parade of presentations: at Mobile World Congress debut flagship device from the most famous brands. Raqwe summarizes the expectations of the MWC and tells what gadgets we demonstrate with 1 to 5 March.

Innovation

Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge

After the failure of the Samsung Galaxy Round abandoned experiments with curved displays: Koreans focused on supporting strips that allow the service information at the end of the smartphone. Debut device became Galaxy Note Edge – flagship Phablet with additional screen on the right side. He was introduced along with the Galaxy Note 4, and the highest price (in Russia – from 50,000 at the start) made Edge premium option is usually Phablet. By early February, were sold 630,000 Note Edge – pretty good for an experimental device.

Experiments continue on 1 March: the presentation of Samsung will welcome not only the standard Galaxy S6, but Galaxy S6 Edge (the second part mentions the name – S Edge). Now on the Edge-version is palpable rate: first, something curved appeared on the teaser event (it’s always a hint), and secondly, the service is just two screens. The most simple but important reason for the appearance of the third display – the same opportunities for right-handed and left-handed users. In terms of “stuffing» S6 Edge coincide with the classical Six: 2K display, processor Exynos 7420, 3 GB of RAM, with options 32/64/128 GB of built-in resources, 20-megapixel camera and a fingerprint scanner. Operating system – Android 5.0, moreover, it is likely without TouchWiz.

Fashion on curved devices support mainly Korean manufacturers: in early January at CES-2015 was announced the LG G Flex, slightly curved display equipped. However, most experts are of the opinion that the real benefit of such devices are not able to bring: it is necessary to wait for the moment when it will be possible to turn off the smartphone into a tube.

Modules Google Ara

The collapse of Glass makes Google hurry with other innovations: the failure of smart points can adversely affect the image of the company, so you need to quickly present something resonance. The ideal candidate – modular smartphone Google Ara, who received the news about the media a couple of years. The idea of the Internet giant is to give people a choice: for example, a man who only need a large screen and powerful processor, can save on the camera, simply abandoning this module.

In preparation for the commercial version of Ara in Google faced a lot of problems: the first stages of the magnets do not provide adequate reliability of the design, so the module is loosened. In January 2015 journalists from leading publications invited to brief acquaintance with modular smartphone. The opinion of the press was quite clear: now this gadget seems very unusual (primarily because any element can detach), but on the whole project looks promising.

In Barcelona Google bring ready modules developed by Yezz. The preliminary announcement indicated that the companies involved in the project Ara, engaged in the creation of about 100 different hardware units – from the processor to the fingerprint sensor. It is already known that the chipsets will deliver Marvell and NVIDIA, for screens respond Innolux, but for the sound of Sennheiser. Thus, already at MWC many journalists will be able to explore the finished models Google Ara. Sale of smartphones and modules to them should start this year: it is expected that the site will launch in Puerto Rico.

Operating Systems

Ubuntu

A year ago, Meizu and Canonical arrived at MWC with a prototype smartphone Ubuntu Touch: the role of the subject was current at the time MX3, but the market gadget with the new OS has not arrived. Further development of the mobile version of Ubuntu was pulled all the 2014-th: in November Meizu and Canonical consolidated friendship agreement on strategic partnership. Most likely, the partnership finally result in a complete device: it was announced that UFO-smartphone (U – Ubuntu, FO – Flyme OS) will debut in the first quarter of 2015.

The list of participants nearest exhibition MWC Meizu does not appear, but there is Canonical. For an early announcement of the joint gadget indicated by the fact that on 7 February was presented the first official smartphone on Ubuntu: BQ Aquaris E4.5 with mediocre specifications (qHD, screen, 1 GB of RAM) and the price of 170 euros.

It is worth noting that for the final release of Canonical refused consoles Touch: The resulting system is simply called Ubuntu, which underlines its identity with the desktop version.

Windows 10

February 13 Microsoft announced the release of Windows Mobile 10 Technical Preview – This assembly is designed to fans who are willing to endure any hardship for the sake of testing fresh OS. The oddest thing was that a couple of days before the premiere Windows 10 TP Corporation of Redmond has confirmed its participation in the MWC 2015. Then everything goes according to one of the three scenarios.

The first – an optimistic: in Catalonia Microsoft will please the public the new flagship chipset Snapdragon 810 and the final running Windows 10. This version says a recent promise of the American company: it was stated that a smartphone with a top processor from Qualcomm appear this year. However, the likelihood of such an outcome tends to zero: the insiders did not publish any spy shots, therefore, the development of the flagship is one of the initial stages.

The second scenario – it is quite real: Microsoft brings Phablet Lumia 1330 (continued Lumia 1320) finished with Windows 10. This smartphone is known quite a lot: he will get a 5.7-inch HD-screen, Snapdragon chip 400 gigabytes of RAM, 14-megapixel camera and 5-megapixel front module.

The third story – tragic: Microsoft will offer to wait and restrict output in 1330 with the assembly Lumia Windows 8.1.

Also at the end of January it became known that Windows Mobile is alive not only through Lumia-backgrounds. Acer Executive Director Jason Chen confirmed that at MWC 2015 (4 years after the release vinfona Allegro) presents his company unit running “windows”. There is evidence that the device will not treat a flagship segment, but will be able to upgrade to Windows 10 in March.

Masthead format

Lenovo Vibe Z3 Pro

Released in the summer of metal Phablet Vibe Z2 Pro has received high marks from the press, which enthusiastically greeted stylish device with a gorgeous screen and the flagship “iron”. The only complaint was the size at the end of many reviews the author points out that if Lenovo has cut the screen to 0.5 inches (or even per inch), the smartphone would be a wider audience.

After seven and a half months, the Chinese company is preparing to release Vibe Shot. He will get a 5-inch FullHD-screen (enough for a diagonal), aluminum housing, 3 GB RAM, OS Android Lollipop, as well as 16-megapixel camera with optical stabilization, three-color flash, and possibly a laser autofocus. Judging by the title, Vibe Shot will be positioned as a camera phone: at the same point two physical buttons on the end. One is responsible for the shutter release, the other – for switching between professional and amateur shooting modes. Minus at Vibe Shot only one – Snapdragon chip 615, which is unable to compete with the 810-m performance.

Large plates

In 2015-m sure Apple will release a 12.2-inch tablet, so Android-competitors are trying to prepare for the release of Cupertino. Previously, the production of large plates were engaged only Samsung and Microsoft, and now they are likely to join Sony. The Japanese refused to big press conference at MWC-2015, but we can not exclude a quiet announcement giant tablet Xperia Z4 Tablet Ultra.

He, if you trust the blurry spy images, get the typical rectangular design line. With the “filling” more difficult: the most detailed information to provide resources PadNews, periodically mistaken in their forecasts. The Chinese claim that the Tablet Ultra involve 4K screen, 6GB RAM, Qualcomm Snapdragon processor 810 and the battery on the 12100 mAh. At least half of these characteristics, looks very doubtful.

In addition to Sony, Samsung and Microsoft can present large plates and less well-known brands: due Phablet 7-inch “tablet” lost popularity, so vendors have to complement the 10-inch format is something new.

Wearable gadgets

Watches from Samsung

The success of the Motorola Moto 360 forced designers to design the Samsung smart watch with a round dial. Even a few weeks before MWC-2015 Leak at least: there are only a sketchy outline design hours (unusual), previously codenamed (Orbis) and operating system information (Tizen, but not Android Wear).

We can assume that, as in the case with previous smart clock company, Orbis will be synchronized only with gadgets ruler Galaxy. All other details we learn in Barcelona.

LG G Watch R2 with LTE

Koreans do not mind the fact that G Watch R2 will give them the third generation smart hours per year: in LG focused on how to outperform competitors in real time. In early December 2014 it became clear that with a budget smartphone Asian manufacturers take at MWC round clock with support for LTE. Appearance G Watch R2 virtually unchanged compared to the previous generation, and the presence of the communication module will allow to get ahead in this field, Samsung, whose Gear S only works in third-generation networks.

Bracelet Watch from HTC

The Taiwanese company for a long time to look closely to the market wearable electronics and only now produced his gadget. The device, tentatively named HTC Petra – hybrid smart watches and fitness tracker. Accessory will weigh only 23 grams, but can boast superior functionality. Petra with a flexible 1.8-inch PMOLED-screen with a resolution 32h160 points accelerometer integrated GPS-module, robust housing (protection – IP57) and a battery that is able to operate without recharging up to three days.

The gadget is synchronized with the devices on iOS and Android, passes back information about physical activity and sleep schedule is. In addition, Petra can act as a smart alarm clock, music player and the remote control for the camera smartphone. Of course, no Android Wear is not established that there is only its own operating system, developed specifically for this model.

The device is available in three sizes (S / M / L) and four colors (black / turquoise / gray and blue / lime). First smart watch to get into the US market (price unknown), followed by a global release worth the wait.

Design

HTC One M9

Preceded M9 Hima was one of the most beautiful smartphone 2014: Android even among fans assumed that it was with One M8 at Apple sketched sixth iPhone. HTC flagship 2015 will be even more attractive: the latest figures, the front panel is made from glass, speakers leave the slot on the end, and a little old dark band (the one below the screen) all lost. Behind everything will remain as before, but instead of a double chamber will be a regular 20-megapixel module production Toshiba.

Characteristics of the device are well known: HTC One M9 Hima receive a 5-inch Full-HD-screen, Qualcomm Snapdragon processor 810, 3GB of RAM and Android 5.0 with a shell Sense 7.0.

Thickness Gionee

In little-known brands have only one opportunity to quickly get all the news feeds: it is necessary to release a gadget that passes under the category “best.” The thinnest smartphone (at least for a few weeks) will be presented in Barcelona: there it will bring the company Gionee. The thickness of the device is only 4.6 millimeters, with no tricks like bulging cameras or 2.5-mm jack for headphones is not provided.

All known specifications of the machine from Gionee – is the amount of RAM (2 GB) and the operating system Android 5.0 Lollipop. Let the graph (screen, processor, battery) can be filled in early March in Catalonia.

Japan’s largest producer of juice – Kagome – created a furor. The company introduced the public robot named Tomatan. With very unexpected functionality.

The fact that the car sits on the shoulders of the owner (literally) and feeds him tomatoes. While on the go. From Homo sapiens is required only in time to open his mouth.

Tomatan – run and eat tomatoes

Interesting interpretation of the concept of “wearing device.”

Media already named design one of the most crazy inventions in history. Although the creators claim that the meaning of the electromechanical assistant grasp easily.

Tomatan coined for the famous marathon in Tokyo. The goal – to help athletes to survive the competition. Let there right on the run, without being distracted from the goal.

Why as a food stand tomatoes? In them – according to developers – contains special substances, resisting fatigue.

In creating the 8-pound miracle of technology engineers participated Maywa Denki. This art studio specializing in unconventional “gadgets” with a unique design.

Of course, nothing serious in the unit no. It is made partly in jest, partly – for the sake of advertising Kagome. To remind citizens of the rising sun on the popularity of the brand.

It turned out funny.
