More tablets, PCs, and TVs to adopt AMOLED displays

 

AMOLED (active matrix organic light emitting diode) displays are ideal for tablets and TVs as they offer high contrast ratios, quick response times, and wide viewing angles. The technology also allows for such devices to be thin, flexible, and even transparent, the research firm notes.
On the other hand, AMOLED technology has faced challenges scaling up to screen sizes much larger than those on smartphones. But the latest improvements in the technology are expected to pave the way for its use on bigger devices, though production can still carry a high price tag.
"OLED displays operate through direct emission, as opposed to transmissive LCD or reflective displays, which enables area lighting," Jennifer Colegrove, vice president of emerging display technologies for NPD DisplaySearch, said in a statement. "The technology has made good progress and is ready to enter large-size applications, but low cost manufacturing for large sizes is still a challenge."

 

In December Samsung released a 7.7-inch Galaxy Tab tablet that uses a Super AMOLED Plus display. LG is expected to launch a 55-inch OLED TV sometime this year.
And NPD DisplaySearch sees other tablet and laptop vendors adopting the technology in 2012 as the manufacturing process starts to allow for larger displays in a more cost-effective way.
Revenue from OLED displays overall might have surpassed $4 billion last year, estimates NPD DisplaySearch, around 4 percent of all flat-panel display sales. As more companies latch onto the technology, revenue could shine past $20 billion by 2018, accounting for 16 percent of the entire display industry.

  

Roku's Streaming Stick

Roku's Streaming Stick shrinks the Roku box into a dongle

Roku announced the Streaming Stick this morning, which essentially squeezes all the functionality of a typical Roku box (including Wi-Fi, processor, and memory) into a a device that looks like a USB flash drive. It doesn't require an additional power cable or a separate remote, instead allowing you to use your TV's standard remote to navigate Roku's software. Roku's platform currently supports over 400 channels, including Netflix, Amazon Instant, Pandora, MLB.TV, HBO Go, MOG, and Rdio.

 

Roku sees the Streaming Stick as an alternative to individual manufacturer's Smart TV portals, which quickly become out of date and rarely receive updates a year after they're released. Not only is it more likely the Streaming Stick will be updated more frequently, but it's also a lot more affordable to swap in a new, improved Streaming Stick if the current hardware becomes outdated.

The Roku Streaming Stick connects to the back of your HDTV, but it requires an MHL port.

The big catch of the Streaming Stick is that it requires an MHL port, which is a relatively new connection type supported by only a few HDTVs. That could quickly change over the next week, however, as manufacturers roll out their new lines of HDTVs atCES 2012. There are also MHL-to-HDMI adapters available, although they require power, which considerably cuts down on the Streaming Stick's simplicity. (At that point, you may want to consider an actual box.)

The Roku Streaming Stick won't available until the fall and there's no pricing yet, although Roku told us it will be between $50 and $100. Best Buy's house brand Insignia will be one of the initial partners, although the Streaming Stick will work with any HDTV with an MHL port.

HTC Cemile

HTC Cemile 1080p Display Phone Runs Android 4.0 With HTC Sense 4.0
hi friends i am back with this new concept phone from htc called HTC Cemile .
This name was chosen as a tribute to the girl the designer loves. HTC Cemile uses a full HD 1920 x 1080 pixel display with a 4.8 inch diagonal, thus becoming the largest Android smartphone out there, unless you count the Galaxy Note as a handset.

This concept HTC also comes with a 16 megapixel camera with dual LED flash, a front 2 megapixel camera, NFC support, Bluetooth 4.0 and Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich with HTC Sense UI 4.0. The phone relies on a 2500mAh Li-Akku battery for juicing up the machine and the specs list also includes HSPA+ connectivity, LTE, WiFi 802.11 b/g/n and 60GHz support (a new wireless technology). HTC Cemile adopts a metallic case as chassis and it provides 32GB of flash memory for storage purposes.
It also has changeable virtual buttons, that are easy to tweak, courtesy of a special feature from HTC. The handset also gets Wide IO Mobile RAM, a next generation 30nm type of RAM memory, with 50% less power usage compared to the equivalent DDR2 sticks. Also you must know that Cemile is supposed to ship with Beats Audio with Solo earphones. I imagine that the design of this device is pretty thin, looking at this pictures, something like 8mm or so. Fancy this smartphone?

Fujifilm F300EXR

Fujifilm F300EXR Super Compact Camera With 15X Zoom and 3″ 460K Pixels LCD

Fujifilm India Pvt. Ltd., the wholly owned subsidiary of Fujifilm Corporation, Japan, which is one of the world’s largest photographic solutions company, today announced the launch of top-end compact 15 x zoom FinePix F300 EXR in the Indian market. The F300EXR is equipped with the world’s first “Phase Detection pixel built-in CCD”, which realize Auto Focus speed of 0.158 sec, as fast as human eyes blink.

The all new 15 x zoom model FinePix F300EXR, comes as powerful successor of Fujifilm’s award-winning ‘F’ series models. The New EXR sensor helps in fast and accurate phase detection auto focus.

Fujifilm placed pairs of phase detection sensors on the EXR sensor, which works by receiving the incoming light of images and calculating the phase difference to find if the object is in front focus or back focus position. This mechanism is same as that of external sensors on DSLRs and realizes the incredible auto focus speed of 0.158* sec.

The new Fujifilm F300EXR has the ability to intelligently decide between the two focusing systems on the camera, which is Hybrid Auto Focus System. When a bright, high-contrast subject is positioned in the center of the frame, Phase Detection AF works as fast as 0.158 sec which is about the same speed of human eyes blink. In dark scenes, Contrast AF is employed to work accurately as conventional digital cameras.

Huawei launches new modem 8586 Mi-Fi

The Huawei May not be well known for its smartphones, but it is one of the best known manufacturers in Brazil, when it comes to modem 3G. The company was one of those responsible to bring the technology to Brazil, along with Nokia, and Sony. Their modems have always been successful in all mobile operators in the country.

Now the company announces a new, its new HSDPA modem + Mi-Fi that works for up to 3 devices at the same time, with good connection – do not know if it would very well in Brazil with this internet of sorts, but in other countries as England, the result can be more satisfying. The Mi-Fi Modem 8586 is capable of increasing the initial speed of the Internet for up to 40%, with a capacity of 21.1 Mbps.

It comes with an OLED screen that shows the amount of data used in addition to showing the current speed of your Internet connection, which can be activated by a specific button. Unlike modems with USB, it comes with a charger, making it even more portable than its predecessors. It is not known whether he will be released in Brazil, and even if I doubt that your connection makes it so special. Sorry for the sincerity, but unfortunately such power means nothing without the infrastructure.

The new 11-inch Macbook Air is one of Apple’s most interesting launches to date. Apple has so far famously refused to enter the netbook game, choosing instead to give users the MacBook Air last year, an unbelievably thin and light system that still had a regular notebook’s screen and keyboard. This refresh now gives users a choice of screen sizes, and also marks Apple’s first small-screen offering since the much-loved 12-inch iBook and PowerBook models were retired without replacements in 2006.

The most interesting factor here is that the entry-level 11-inch MacBook Air costs the same amount as an entry-level Macbook. Apart from the obvious size and weight differences, the Air comes with a comparatively slower CPU, only 64 GB of solid-state storage, non-upgradeable RAM, no DVD drive or SD card reader (the 13-inch Air does have this), a metal body, no Ethernet port, and half the battery life. Both offer Bluetooth 2.1 and Wi-Fi N connectivity, and come with Mac OS X and the iLife suite as standard. Surprisingly, the Air’s 11.6-inch screen runs at a higher resolution of 1366x768 pixels than the MacBook’s 1280x800. This raises some interesting questions about which option is better value for money—buyers will be divided over which one is the better choice for them.

 

Looks and usage

The 11-inch Air is 1.7 cm thick at its thickest point and weighs just a hair over 1 kg, making it easy to slip it into pretty much any backpack, sling, or even handbag. It will undoubtedly be popular with frequent fliers, road warriors, college students, and anyone who’s ever suffered shoulder ache from carrying a heavy laptop around every day. It isn’t the most comfortable for extended use though—while Apple promises the keyboard is full sized, we found it a bit too shallow for comfort. The body is also so small that your wrists are likely to rest right against the device’s front edge, which isn’t comfortably rounded off.  The trackpad is typically oversized, but is centered to the Macbook’s body rather than to the keyboard, so your palms will drift across it quite often. Finally, the high-res screen is just a tiny bit too cramped

Connectivity is improved with the addition of a second USB port, thankfully spaced on the right edge so oversized plugs don’t block both ports. There are even stereo speakers, as opposed to the older Air’s single mono one. Our review unit was the more expensive one with 128 GB of storage which costs Rs 12,000 more than the base 64 GB option, so anyone who wants to carry even a regular-sized music and movie library will end up carrying an external hard drive everywhere too. One minor inconvenience we found was the lack of a keyboard backlight—something we’ve grown very used to on Apple machines.

 

In ordinary usage, we found the new baby Air to be a delight. No netbook so far has felt as well-rounded and easy to carry. On the flip side though, the hardware seems to be only just about capable of running OS X; even the simple dock animations sometimes felt laggy. Ordinary tasks such as Web browsing work just fine, but graphics- and CPU-intensive tasks performed in iPhoto and Garage Band can quickly bog this system down, so we wouldn’t recommend trying any heavy Photoshop or multimedia work. That said, the solid-state drive affords unbelievably fast boot and shutdown times, and resuming from standby takes barely a seconds. We didn’t benchmark the Air with our usual Windows-based benchmarks, since it’s unlikely that anyone will dual-boot with only 64 or 128 GB of hard drive space, and the Mac experience depends on tight hardware and software integration.

Battery life was a bit of a disappointment. The 11-inch model is rated at five hours of continuous usage with Wi-Fi enabled, but we found this to be a bit of an optimistic figure. The Air’s battery also famously depletes faster depending on what software is installed, particularly things like Flash that keep the CPU and graphics processors churning. It’s unrealistic to think that people are going to go very long without seeing something wrong on their favorite websites and following the instructions to install Flash, so we hope that future software updates will at least help slow the drain. Apple also touts a new sleep state that allows the Air to remain suspended for up to 30 days, during which it will also resume instantly when the lid is opened. We did notice surprisingly little battery drain while asleep, but the claim of instant resumes is a bit exaggerated. Those who need longer battery life might consider the 13-inch Air, which is rated at 7 hours.

Verdict

The new MacBook Air gives us a glimpse into the future of Apple’s designs: innovations seen on one model usually make it to all the others, so we can expect the same solid-state storage and maybe even better battery life in the next generation of MacBook Pros. Once low-voltage CPUs become a bit more powerful and the price of flash memory hits parity with regular hard drives, it’s possible that there won’t even need to be a seperate Air line, and the successors to today’s models will simply replace the bulky MacBook line, serving everyone’s basic home and student needs. Those who need an optical drive or better connectivity will always have the MacBook Pro as an option. On the other hand, those who need an even lighter or simpler device have the iPad.

The close ties between Apple’s hardware and its Mac OS will be all the more apparent with the impending Mac App Store launch, which will bring iPhone-like simplicity to finding and downloading software as early as January 2011. Previews of OS X 10.7, which releases next year, indicate even more iOS-inspired touches including an app launcher and tighter trackpad gestures. The baby Air is already just barely larger than an iPad, so with next year’s software update as well as its keyboard and USB ports, it could be just the right mix of comfort and portability that people find lacking in the iPad.

 For now, the 11-inch Air occupies a space that makes it way more than a netbook, but at a way higher price. If you’re looking for something ultraportable just for Web surfing, you’d have to really consider whether the Air is worth the money when there are dozens of netbooks and even full-sized laptops that you could get for a lot less. If you need a Mac for work, the cost of upgrades would mean you’re spending as much as you would on a much more capable MacBook Pro. The future holds many tantalizing possibilities, but for now this machine is just a bit too underpowered for our liking. Still, the new 11-inch Air is undeniably gorgeous and is a valid option for those who want an ultraportable and can afford not to look at the price tag.
