Apple's CEO, Tim Cook, described the Apple Watch as the most advanced display of time to date. It is suitable for technology connoisseurs, sports enthusiasts and all users in between. The Apple Watch is Apple's most personal device to date, and since it also has the digital assistant Siri, you'll finally be able to talk to your watch like you've always wanted to.
Lenovo is known by many for its powerful laptops. In this field, Lenovo has reigned for some time and is in fact a leading company in the world of personal computers. The decision to bring its exception of popular and affordable phones to Slovenia has been announced for a long time. They will be available to customers through an offer from free sales, and then also from mobile phone operators. First of all, eight different models of Lenovo smartphones are available in all four market segments, and they will cost between 69 and 499 euros, which, given comparable specifications, is 20 to 30 percent cheaper than the competition. In a month or two, smartphones of the latest generation and award winners of MWC 2015 will join.
Although the babies stole all our attention on the Dolce & Gabbana Fall/Winter 2015 catwalk at Milan Fashion Week, we didn't miss the collection's extraordinary details, the most prominent of which were the glamorous, bejeweled and fur-encrusted headphones that we can already afford today – for about US$8,000.
The Lenovo Yoga Tablet 2 Pro is a different kind of tablet. A tablet that lives for innovation and can boast, among other things, a projector hidden in a cylinder located on the bottom side. A folding stand also found its place there. But being able to turn walls into a projection screen is just one of the treats. There are also super loud speakers, and an exceptional screen... which raises the multimedia experience with tablets to unprecedented heights.
At the Geneva Motor Show, Goodyear managed to shift the focus from sheet metal and girls in latex and miniskirts to tires. With his study tire BH03, he could change the course of history and tilt the scales in favor of electric cars. The main advantage of the concept are two new materials, hidden under the profile, which enable the production of electricity and thus power the battery of the hybrid system.
Apple introduced the MacBook (2015), their most classic laptop model, which ranks between the MacBook Air and the Macbook Pro. Tim Cook presented it together with other innovations (Apple Watch,...) at yesterday's Spring Forward conference. The successor to Steve Jobs claims to have reinvented the laptop, boasting an enviable 2340 x 1440 Retina display, but it's so thin and light you'll feel like you're opening a magazine rather than a laptop .
Part media player, part gaming console, the Nvidia Shield, the first Android TV console, is the latest device vying for a spot next to your TV. It is powered by a Tegra X1 processor, has 3 GB of memory, Android TV, built-in 4K technology, 16 GB of memory, Bluetooth 4.1, two USB 3.0 plugs, an HDM connector, Ethernet connectivity and a microUSB "garage" for memory cards with 128 GB.
After the predecessor of the solar plane Solar Impulse 2 made history several times, including as the first solar plane to make an intercontinental flight, its successor has set itself an even more daring mission, which plans to fly around the world, which has already started in Abu Dhabi. In doing so, the 2.3 tonne carbon fiber aircraft with a wingspan of 72 metres, piloted alternately by the father of the aircraft, Andre Borschberg and Bertrand Piccard from Switzerland, will be able to use only solar energy.
Johnnie Walker Blue Label whiskey is the world's first smart spirit. The best-selling brand of Scotch whiskey with more than 150 years of tradition merged with the company Thin Film Electronics ASA from Norway, with which they did not mix nanoparticles or anything similar into the "water of life", the intervention was only in the label, which now features NFC contactless technology. This transmits data to the user's smartphone, and it was tried for the first time at the mobile congress MWC 2015.
China's ZTE, unlike most other smartphone providers, approached biometric identification differently. Not by taking fingerprints, but by "scanning" the eyes, as he installed the EyeVerify scanner in his new Grand S3 smartphone. This does not "scan" the iris, but the blood vessels, as they are without a pair and do not change with age and stress. For one of the most secure ways of identification, we use the front camera.
Forget the telescopic selfie stick, here is the Podo, a camera that attaches to any hard surface (wood, concrete, glass,...) with the help of a magnet or a suction cup, a spark (read the link) between it and and turn on Bluetooth with your smartphone. You can capture images, videos and time-lapse videos with it, and you can even back it on Kickstarter.
After debuting at CES the year before last year, the Instrument 1 is now moving into homes after meeting its Kickstarter goal in less than six hours. The basic, plastic version of the instrument will thus be available for around 310 euros, while the wooden version will be significantly more expensive - 810 euros. Which is still cheap when you think about how much a guitar, piano, violin and bass combined would hit our wallets. But the Instrument 1 can sound quite different, as it can be connected to the iPhone family and a PC.
