Under the term drone or quadcopter, which most drones are, you probably don't think of a device shaped like an egg and the size of an American football. But the PowerEgg is just such a drone. The aircraft of the Chinese company PowerVision can also fly indoors, and it is not only its shape that is uncharacteristic, but also the propellers, which are facing downwards. When the PowerEgg is not in use, it can be a decoration for the home, just like a vase or a keepsake.

After Asia, which Huawei's Honor brand conquered some time ago, it is Europe's turn. And the weapon with which they want to cut off a significant piece of the market pie is the smartphone Honor 8. It is the ideal media tool for the demanding generation of millennials at a price that is a third lower than comparable phones.

Autonomy of operation or Battery life is the biggest drawback of smart mobile devices. Portable chargers or portable rechargeable batteries (power banks) have filled the charging gap on the go when there are no outlets available. They have become our lifelines when the battery runs out on our phone, tablet or laptop. But what if the portable charger runs out and we are still far from civilization? That's when the Estream portable charger comes into play, a kind of mobile hydroelectric power plant for phone charging that is powered by water flow.
The HP Omen X Desktop is an extremely powerful PC that will cope with all the technological demands of virtual reality, which relies on powerful computers. And this HP Omen Desktop X definitely is. But even more than its hardware, its cube shape impresses.

Nikon is designing a compact camera that has four lenses! The idea is not entirely new, because last year we already wrote about the Light L16 camera, which has 16 individual lenses built into the housing, which are divided into different groups with different focal lengths (between 35 and 15 mm). In July 2016, the company also successfully raised funds to start production, and now we have discovered that Nikon is also planning something similar, planning a compact camera with four separate lenses and sensors in a single body.
It may look silly, but the Povie (derivative of the acronym POV - Point of View), a phone holder worn around the neck, is actually a very practical thing. It allows you to record scenes in first-person mode (from our perspective), even while moving, freeing up both hands. Similar to if you had a GoPro sports camera on your head. This allows us to experience the moments here and now and not until later, when we watch the recording, because we are not busy looking at the screen and the position of the phone during the recording. Time will tell if the smartphone necklace will follow in the footsteps of the selfie stick.
