These Ray Ban solar shades can charge your iPhone 5


If youre outside on a sunny day, theres a good chance that youre both wearing sunglasses and youre nowhere near your iPhone charger. Design student Sayalee Kaluskar has combined these two common occurrences into a product capable of shielding your eyes from the sun and charging your iPhone as well. She calls them Shama Shades, but in truth theyre a pair of modified Ray-Ban sunglasses that have been fitted with a solar panel, a built-in battery and an iPhone 5 charging plug.

The glasses perform their traditional duty while youre catching some rays, and the solar panel fills the small battery hidden within. When the sun sets, you can remove one of the arms of the shades and plug it into your iPhone for an extra shot of energy. As the glasses were made for a school project, theres little chance youll get the opportunity to buy them any time soon, but an idea this good seems like it deserves to find its way to retail sooner or later.

The BQ Aquaris E4 5 with Ubuntu Touch will be shown on February 24

BQ







How already announced in December, the Spanish BQ be the first company to offer a terminal with the new Ubuntu Touch and ahead of the Chinese Meizu had also promised a special edition of Meizu MX4 with this software. The date you can see first-hand the terminal has just been announced on 24 February.


 Although Canonical, responsible for the development of Ubuntu Touch operating system, had signed with fanfare an agreement with Meizu, the “fucking spaniards” BQ, alluding to its original television campaign directed by Alex de la Iglesia, retakes the front. While the Chinese company has not yet moved beyond record announcement that there will be a Meizu MX4 with this software, BQ show us the February 24 as is their first handset with Ubuntu Touch.


BQ


 Although the model is specified in the notice, last April was unveiled that worked on a variant of BQ Aquaris E4.5 with this operating system, and you can discuss any specs on this link and that will not change rather than the software that manages them. Among them we can highlight its 4.5-inch screen, which unlike MX4 which is FullHD, the Spanish model, has qHD (540 x 960 pixels), quad-core processor MediaTek at 1.3 Ghz, 8 GB storage space, 1GB of RAM and 2,150 mAh battery with an attractive price of 149 euros, which will have to see if it holds.


  Thus, those interested in the proposal of Canonical are in luck, though yet to meet official release date and price of this new version of the smartphone BQ Aquaris E4.5. Yes, the commercial version of Ubuntu Touch already indicated that it will be different from that currently you can download, and it takes almost a year available, and is aimed at developers to prepare their applications for the launch of the first and terminals, can be secured, will arrive in 2015.

T Mobile branded Galaxy S5 also receive Android 5 0 Lollipop – TechTastic

Samsung_Galaxy_S5_vs_Galaxy_Alpha_review Earlier this month, Samsung started rolling out the Android 5.0 update for the Galaxy S5 Lollipop with Vodafone branding and now appears the T-Mobile variant Update to receive. The big question is why the carrier branded versions first received the update, while the regular model in the Netherlands still has not been updated to Android 5.0 and other countries have already received the update.

Samsung Galaxy S5 with T-Mobile branding have in many cases only when the unit is in a T-Mobile shop or purchased via the T-Mobile website. Do you have a T-Mobile subscription purchased from an external offer, such as Belsimpel, Typhone or Cool Blue, you will receive in many cases the standard model without apps / bloatware T-Mobile





 

However, in the possession of a T-Mobile branded version of the Galaxy S5, but you still see no notification appear before the update? Quickly open the settings menu, then the submenu on the phone and the system update option where you can check if an update is available. If this method does not work, then install Samsung Kies on your PC or Mac.

And if you have a Samsung Galaxy S5 without bloatware Vodafone or T-Mobile, then there is nothing else to do but at the moment waiting for the moment when Samsung releases the update for Dutch users. We’ve known for some time that the update is completed and the last 7 days, a number of countries have already joined where the rollout is now also started, unfortunately, the Netherlands appears to fall under here yet.

Have you already received the update on your Galaxy S5 with T-Mobile branding? Let us know your experiences via a reaction

Nexus 5 leaks in a big way with photos Kitkat details and more

The Google Nexus 5 is on its way - possibly today - and weve been treated to a host of leaked images and Android 4.4 details to whet our appetites.


It looks as though several people around the world have got their hands on pre-release Nexus 5 handsets, with one enterprising self-starter taking to Reddit to do an AMA about it.

He described the handset for his eager audience: "[The handset] doesnt feel cheap like a Samsung device, feels great in the hand, its similar to holding a G2 but no volume controls [on the back]."

The price is right


He also claimed to be "99% certain" that the pricing would start at $349. Thats about £220 or AU$370.
And the question on everybodys lips: what does the Nexus 5 taste like? "Fresh plastic mixed with finger sweat."

As for KitKat, it sounds as though therell be some kind of cloud-based backup option and voice control.
Not long to wait until we find out weve been had: were expecting the Nexus 5 and Android 4.4 to launch later on today.

Asus Zenfone 5 LTE Debuts and Price in Taiwan



After selling about 105,000 ZenFones in May and more than 200,000 units last month. Asustek Computer expects to ship more smartphones this month. ZenFone 5 ranked as the bestselling smartphone locally for two consecutive months, the company hopes the wider ZenFone range “will remain the bestseller in July,” following the launch of its first 4G long-term evolution (LTE) handset, Asustek’s corporate vice president Benson Lin said.
The ZenFone 5 LTE has a Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 1.2GHz quad-core processor and costs NT$6,990 (US$233) for a 16GB model, undercutting models with similar specifications from competitors, such as Sony Corp’s Xperia M2 at NT$9,900, and HTC Corp’s Desire 610 at NT$7,990.


Chief executive officer Jerry Shen said Asustek has targeted China’s Xiaomi Corp as its main competitor in the budget smartphone segment and is confident about its own competitiveness, as Asus smartphones are well received in Southeast Asian countries like Singapore and Malaysia.

Asustek in May told investors that it expected to sell 5 million to 10 million smartphones this year.

Asus Zenfone 5 Review

Asus Zenfone 5

Asus Zenfone 5

Asus has re-entered the smartphone market in India with their new Zenfone series announced at this year’s CES. The new series is available in four screen sizes – 4, 4.5, 5 and 6 inches. Today we’ll be taking a closer look at the Zenfone 5. With a starting price of just Rs 10,000. Battery life isn’t fantastic, but most other elements are for the money. Asus is one of the best options if you want to save that additional cash. Can the Zenfone make a dent in Motorolas current lead?

Our Review

The phone does look premium for its price range but the bezels look a tad bit large for my liking,it being a 5 inch screen. The power buttons and the volume rockers are easy to press.The screen has got gorilla glass 3 protection,so thats a thumbs up Performance: The phone runs on an Intel Atom 1.6 ghz dual core processor.But since it relies on hyper threading,it makes android feel like its a quad core(adding 2 virtual threads). And thats where the performance stands out. Scrolling seems buttery smooth and the Ui itself is refreshing to say the least.I tried games like Asphalt8 and Riptide GP and it handled them with ease. The only con here is the heating up after a short period of usage itself. Overall,a more than good performance from Asus. Camera: The camera part was the one which interested me since Asus claim they use pixelmaster technology to highly improve on the quality of images captured. And true to their claims,Asus does manage to take outdoor shots with fine details and less noise.But indoors,it leaves a lot to be desired frankly. Lot of noise creeps in but something had to give for a phone priced at 10k. Battery: Asus provides us with a non-removable 2110mah battery. Id say dont have high expectations and you wont be dissappointed. Overall: I had a pretty good experience using this phone for the better part of one month.And i have to admit that it doesnt get much better at 10 k. Asus is a worldwide trusted brand and you should buy it if you are stuck at a budget of 10k.
