Huawei Freebuds in the Philippines Priced at Php3600

-
Image
Together with the family of P20 smartphones, this year Huawei launched itself in the field of full wireless headphones and presented its Huawei FreeBuds . These earphones are shamelessly inspired by Apple's AirPods for design and functionality and, if there were no AirPods, these FreeBuds would have made a miracle cry for some aspects of the user experience.

But the AirPods are there (as are the Gear Icon X 2018): the wow effect is reduced , what is left of these headphones?

Top 5 Best Cheap Low End, Locally Branded Smartphone Brands In The Philippines

-
Image
Here are my Top 5 (1) Starmobile, (2) Cherry Mobile, (3) MyPhone, (4)Torque, and (5) Alcatel and SKK Mobile

Starmobile - has the most neatly and decently designed cheaper phones out there. Their latest the Knight is unbelievably fast, looks good. Content-wise, they hook up with local providers like Inquirer and KristN. Plus, they only need one celebrity to do the endorsing (Vice Ganda), which means they do have plenty of cha-ching for marketing.

Cherry Mobile - does equally good with Starmobile although we hear more hardware complaints about their units. But they spend well on advertising and promotions and boy do they have powerhouse endorsers (John Lloyd Cruz, Sarah Geronimo, Anne Curtis, Kim Chiu). Their Cosmos line up are impressive for a low end market. Although, I haven't liked a single good-looking Cherry Mobile phone, because they are either Samsung or so China-made looking.

MyPhone - the brand is so "masa", nothing wrong with that though, the nationalistic branding…

Biometric Sensors Will Be Available on Apple Macbooks

-
Image
Apple thinks of a MacBook with biometric sensors. The Cupertino company has registered a document at the US Patent and Trademark Office that refers to systems and techniques to integrate a biometric sensor into the external surface of the computer that can perhaps be used to monitor the user's heartbeat and health.

The patent, found by the PatentlyApple website, involves the use of translucent and opaque layers on the top surface of the PC with small holes that transmit light in the right side area where the trackpad is present, ie the mouse replacement.

Under some conditions it would also be possible to determine the user's heart rate as he uses his hands to type on the keyboard.

Apple is very active in the Health sector, there is a commitment of the CEO Tim Cook and already on the Apple Watch it is possible to check the heart rate and receive a warning when an anomaly is detected.

Review of the Xiaomi Mi Band 3 in the Philippines, Priced Php 2,600

-
Image
It's been two years since Xiaomi launched its previous Mi Band on the market and for this reason the wait for the most talked-about smartband on the web had grown out of all proportion. Today we give you my opinion on the Xiaomi Mi Band 3.

There is nothing new in the package. Only the rubber bracelet and the accessory to charge the Mi Band. Perhaps we ask too much but considering the price of  replacement straps, perhaps a second colored bracelet in tribute would not be bad.

Overall, the design does not change much compared to the previous model and this is also a recognizable Mi Band from a first glance. But there are various details that demonstrate the work of Xiaomi on the product. The strap and the hook seem more robust and even the "capsule" of the Mi Band remains attached even better to the bracelet. Even the body of the product is larger, both to accommodate a larger display, but also for the presence of a more protruding heartbeat sensor. Needless to deny that …

Get all the music at no cost here use this link. Other related news and info about gaming streaming. During an interview granted to Ars Technica by Dustin Land, id Software's chief programmer recalled the first, problematic approach of the Texas company with the game streaming technology developed by Google to shape Stadia's next-gen vision .

According to what is illustrated by Land, it took only three weeks and a team of two developers to implement the transposition of the first DOOM of 2016 on Stadia: yet, according to the id Software programmer, "it took a lot of work and many tests before reaching acceptable standards " .

The first version of the game streaming system shown to the authors of id Software, in fact, was far from convincing , continues Land explaining that "even a basic version of DOOM did not run very well on a local network" . From 2016 to today, however, all the initial nodes of US developers seem to have been disbanded.

Apple prepares the new MacBook Pro, 16-inch screen and "all-new" design

According to a new report, the Apple laptop will change shape after more than seven years

Time of novelty at Apple and this time the protagonist will be the MacBook Pro, after the renewal of the MacBook Air (here the review of the last ones released ). According to Ming-Chi Kuo, one of the leading experts on Apple's anticipations, the handset coming out in this 2019 will have a 16 or 16.5 inch display . A particular format, little used in the sector. Especially in recent years, Apple has stabilized on the double thumbwheel 13 and 15 inches above all after the 17 inch had been decommissioned way back in 2011. Kuo also speaks of a "completely new" design but does not unbutton itself and offers no other indications. One speaks then of the arrival of the facial recognition for the releasesimilar to that already seen on the iPhone and iPad while the 13-inch MacBook Pro could reach 32 Gb of Ram.

For years, there has been talk of a renewal of the Apple laptop. The MacBook Pro i…

How to Make Use of Old Computers as new Google Chrome Laptop PC

CloudReady is an operating system based on Chromium OS that allows you to turn your PC into a Chromebook. Here's how to install it

More and more users of Windows, Linux and MacOS are deciding to buy a Chromebook to replace their laptop, or as a second laptop specifically dedicated to Web applications. These are laptops with a very slim configuration and fitted with Google's Chrome OS operating system , derived from the well-known browser, and that always work online. By now, thanks to the numerous applications for Chromebooks available, it is possible to use a Chromebook as if it were a normal desktop , so we will hardly miss the lack of our old operating system.

It must be said, however, that not everyone finds the right configuration for them when they want to buy a device of this type: most Chromebooks , for example, have a very small screen (between 11.5 inches and 13.5 inches) for promote transportability and reduce weight. A 17-inch Chromebook, on the other hand, does no…
