United Kingdom telecommunications watchdog Ofcom report shows, home electronics and light 20% of a negative impact on the WiFi signal, led to lower speeds.
At this time of year, the West will light up Christmas lights-around-but the light will affect the speed of your wireless Internet?
Ofcom warns on its website: "the halogen lamp, dimmer switch, stereo and computer speakers, Christmas tree lights, televisions, and the AC power cable from the monitor is likely to interfere with a broadband router. Please try to keep the router away from other electronic devices, and baby monitors, wireless signal transmission equipment. ”
Experts said the electronic device capable of producing strong electromagnetic fields do for broadband spectrum interference. But University of Texas chemistry professor Kaite·biboduofu (Kate Biberdorf) Express, Christmas lights have little impact, most home users do not see the difference.
"It's silly. "She said," you simply fails to note this distinction. If you run intensive video games or download music or movies may be able to feel a bit different, but that doesn't matter. ”
She said, if you really pay attention to the slow, easy to solve. "Just need to unplug it, ensure that the Christmas lights and the router is not plugged into the same outlet on the line. You can pull them apart. "She said," the effect of microwaves on WiFi is far greater than the Christmas lights. ”
"Christmas lights can only create a very weak magnetic field, the intensity is very low. "Skyway Tech bulade·ximaguliao (Brad Cimaglio) agreed with this statement," I believe that Christmas lights only affects the WiFi is used packaging around the router. But even so, you can still work. ”
So, even if your Christmas home as beautiful as a fairy tale world, still does not have an impact on your online shopping and streaming video.
Of course, if you would when not in use turn off other electrical appliances, is sure to play a better role of the router, but also achieve the objective of saving.
Although just 5 years 4G the emergence of smart phones, but industry has begun in preparation for 5G. United States four operators, and mobile phone chip manufacturers and network equipment manufacturers are developing 5G technology.
5G before business, companies still need to overcome many obstacles. For example, the industry has not yet been determined, 5G the true meaning of what 5G should look like, and when the network will be launched.
At present, many users using 4G to watch the video, consume a lot of bandwidth, so 5G will soon become an essential technology. With the promotion of research and development, concerning the definition of 5G network, availability, and application scenarios, we are a clearer understanding.
What is 5G?
In nouns such as 3G, 4G and 5G, and g is the English word "generation" (x) abbreviation. Thus, the 5G is the fifth generation of mobile communications technology.
At present, 5G has not yet been finalized. Bill Smith, President of AT&T network operations (Bill Smith) that 5G will take place in 2018 to obtain accurate definitions, and the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) in 2019, 5G standards. Will be clearly defined in the standards, what kind of mobile communication technologies could be called "5G", as well as key pointers in 5G network, such as uplink and downlink rate.
However, we can still be based on preliminary tests of the communications industry to guess, 5G technology will be like in the future.
Simple, 5G speed will be faster, and power consumption will be lower than the 4G, resulting in a series of new wireless products. 5G networking will enable us Smartphone faster and will also produce more smart home devices and wearable computing devices.
5G speed how?
May 4G network 5G network speed 40 times, enough to 8K resolution of 3D video, or within 6 seconds to download a 3D movie. (Through the 4G network, which takes 6 minutes of download time. )
For the user, however, laboratory tests and in reality there is always a big gap. In the current network of theoretical peak rate is only a dream, the actual available rate is much lower than the theoretical value.
5G technology in the process of research and development, Nokia is put into one of the largest manufacturers. The company believes that net, under network congestion, 5G the rate at which technology can bring about 100Mbps, the current 4G about 4 times.
5G is another feature of the network latency is very low, which means that network responds to user commands will be very fast. Therefore, sites, applications, video and messaging services will load faster.
5G Web form?
Mobile device testing on 5G mainly based on UHF spectrum, such as the 73,000MHz spectrum. But the existing mobile communication network mainly uses 700MHz to 3500MHz.
A major advantage of using high frequency spectrum, to provide fast data transfer speeds, and drawback of electromagnetic wave transmission distance is very short, and easy to be obstruction. This means that we need to build millions of small base stations. Such a small base station might be deployed to every lamp post, every building, every family, every room.
This will lead to a series of questions. Operators how to handle all that data? Analysts at Gartner mobile infrastructure akexieyi·shaerma (Arkshay Sharma) says that some companies, such as Google's recent purchase of Alpental, is addressing the "return". But so far have not found a solution.
Therefore, 5G is more likely to complement 4G, rather than a direct replacement for 4G. In a building or in a crowded place, 5G is likely to bring the rate of improvement. But if driving on the highway, then 4G may be your only choice. At least it seems so.
5G the timing of the launch?
This type of problem it is not possible to get answers. Widely believed that, during the 2018 Winter Olympic Games, Korea will introduce a 5G network, and large-scale deployment will not start until 2020.
However, Verizon said the company aims to introduce 5G technologies faster, is the earliest in the year 2017.
Taking into account the 5G faces a series of challenges in 2017, Verizon also is unlikely to mass deployment of 5G network. For example, the smart phone manufacturers need to control costs develop chips that support 5G signal.
From Black Friday to Cyber Monday, Apple products are sold, it caused the United States operators of brutal competition.
T-mobile has launched large-scale promotions to attract new users, 128GB version of the iPhone 6S prices to the 16GB level, this means that you can save $ 200. This is just one aspect of the competition, which is over AT&T, GoPhone, Cricket Wireless users.
When it comes to promotions, President and CEO of t-mobile Laegel (John Legere) boldly stated that: "I have heard customers asking: ' what the hell? ' I don't mean to blame them, has had the race between operators, but we have no competition. Always gives you more no operator did not ask for more, we are not like that, we want to show this to long-suffering customers. ”
Laegel said, but in fact it is race. T-mobile promotion is time, end on December 13. It is only prelude to T-Mobile opponents launched a fierce attack, the company has announced that, from next Monday will launch a new round of competition, the target is away from Verizon compete for users. AT&T has confirmed it back to the T-Mobile, from T-Mobile to switch to AT&T, the user will receive a $ 100 discount.
Take a look at how Apple's competitors have large first-mover advantage. Apple Music actually is located in sector IV, far behind Pandora, Spotify and YouTube, and the three companies still is getting bigger, bigger and better. Pandora has 78 million active users, the company had just acquired the Rdio, and planned to launch an on-demand service at the end of next year, provide options for the user, thus competing directly with Apple Music. Spotify announced in June this year the user total to 75 million, is expected later this month could reach 100 million. YouTube itself is one of the largest streaming music service also recently launched the independent YouTube Music applications, simplify the user experience.
When Apple Music when introduced in June this year, music industry think that not using streaming music because of the Apple brand recognition and user experience, and to subscribe to the service. But the reality is that YouTube is simplifying the streaming music experience, Spotify is not under attack, Pandora also strengthened the user base. And to make matters worse, even if Apple Music the right way, but it was too late.

Similar to the iPhone 6c and 5s 4 inch screen confirmed
News that iPhone 6c 4-inch display will continue old iPhone resolution of 1136x640, and in iPhone 6s and appears on the iPhone 6s Plus 3D Touch-pressure control will be out for, but Touch ID should be without, this also means that all high hopes iPhone will support Apple Apple Pay.
Cameras, analysts expect iPhone 6c and not too many surprises, it will continue to use the iPhone on the 5s the iSight 8 million pixels camera with rear and front-facing camera pixel is slightly poor 1.2 million pixels, but iPhone 6c in iOS 9 blessings should also support Live Photo photos.
Look, there is news that iPhone 6c with colorful color scheme as a highlight, but the fuselage material is likely to upgrade from a previous polycarbonate alloy, and in order to maintain similarity with the iPhone and iPhone 6 6s, iPhone 6c or 2.5D surface glass, but the Flash with the speaker opening designs may vary.

This concerned whether Alibaba can also be used as the infrastructure of the business community as a whole "utility".
United States many State Governments are hoping that through the development of new energy vehicles to improve air quality, but because the battery efficiency will be greatly reduced in a low temperature environment, give them an unexpected challenge.
At present, the United States in addition to California, Connecticut, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island and Vermont in 9 States reference to the emission standards of the California electric car and hybrid car sales target. But the problem is that other than Oregon, other State lacks the warm climates of California. As the temperature drops, green power generation relies on a chemical reaction efficiencies will also be reduced. In United States Automobile Association tests, an electric car to 75 degrees Fahrenheit (about 24 degrees Celsius) when the range is 105 miles (about 169 km), 20 degrees Fahrenheit (about 7 degrees c) when it will decrease to 43 miles (about 69 km)-fell by as much as 60%.
That raised concerns in places like Maine, Maine is the United States one of the States with the highest degree of agricultural, where residents often need to drive long distances to get to work, shopping and entertainment venues. "Someone said, don't worry. "The Maine Automobile Dealers Association President Tom Brown (Tom Brown) referring to battery life problems, said. But he said, "California is not Maine, 5 cities they block more people than our State as a whole. ”
These 9 States the same reduction targets as California, they chose the California emissions standards, and did not comply with looser federal standards. Representatives United States 8 North-Eastern State of the nonprofit Northeast States coordinated air use management organization (the Northeast States for Coordinated Air Use Management) Transport Department mate·suoluomeng (Matt Solomon) said: "electrification is part of the programme. ”
California's zero emission vehicle sales in the United States totals. In the area of electric cars and hybrids sales target from the current less than 1%, 15% of up to 2025. These goals came from a legislation adopted in 2003 by means of greenhouse gas emissions by 2050 compared with 1990 and 80%.
Auto manufacturers are in accordance with the established plan to achieve compulsory sales targets, if you can't finish the target, each sold fewer cars was about to face a fine of $ 5000. Now in 3 types of cars on roads are in line with the zero-emission standard: Nissan Leaf and Tesla zero-emission car, the Chevrolet Volt and other electric hybrids that switch between engines and fuel and hydrogen-fueled cars such as Toyota Mirai. (Because the Tesla to sell electric cars only, so the company has also developed a sideline, to the introduction of zero-emission vehicles automakers sold. )
While 9 States adopted the same targets, but progress has lagged behind the warm climates of California. "The introduction of mandatory technical challenges is picking winners and losers. "The global automotive manufacturers Association President and CEO yuehan·bozela (John Bozzella) says," North-East face unique challenges. "Bozela and United States Automobile Manufacturers Association in 2014, successfully resisted the New Hampshire drieularochelle along with the other New England States plan to adopt the California standard.
Officials hope that tackling climate change through improved batteries. "Mileage longer, more advanced batteries, the problem is less. "Solomon said that Tesla has launched a range of 200 miles of cars, and promised as early as 2016 introduction of lower-priced models. GM says Volt planned for the next year, similar to the company's endurance. "Hundreds of miles of range would be a huge revolution. "The United States Director of the natural resources Defense Council energy and transport program luolande·Huang (Roland Hwang) said.
Follow the California commitments of those States set up charging stations and other infrastructure, electric car drivers to help. But the environmental lobby in New York bide·yiwannuoweici (Peter Iwanowicz) that does not seem to be a State willing to reduce sales target. He said: "If you have these goals, but science tells you to do, it should act now. ”
We have been accustomed to that long overdue. New technology of the company has always been to take a wait-and-see attitude, wait to grasp larger, will launch its own product, and claims to be the best in the industry.
Samsung Galaxy Note After the success of the series, Apple has released iPhone 6 Plus 2 years to large screen phones and iPad Pro release 3 years later than Microsoft Surface Pro. Most famous is the first generation iPhone has yet to use the 3G, until the technology becomes more stable and widely available, before deciding to adopt the technology. IPhone 6 Plus strategy flawlessly and took advantage of people's desire for big-screen phone. Preliminary report shows that iPad Pro may also contribute to Apple's tablet computer sales during the Christmas shopping season, but the overall effect is not clear.
This seems to be a sensible strategy, but specific to music streaming, Apple time seems a bit too long to wait, even failing to integrate into the game. As of October, Apple Music has 6.5 million subscribers, for such a young service, so many paying users are hardly uncommon. But the biggest problem is that Apple Music, there are already hundreds of millions of users access to streaming music through other services without using the paid service of the power.
Take a look at how Apple's competitors have large first-mover advantage. Apple Music actually is located in sector IV, far behind Pandora, Spotify and YouTube, and the three companies still is getting bigger, bigger and better. Pandora has 78 million active users, the company had just acquired the Rdio, and planned to launch an on-demand service at the end of next year, provide options for the user, thus competing directly with Apple Music. Spotify announced in June this year the user total to 75 million, is expected later this month could reach 100 million. YouTube itself is one of the largest streaming music service also recently launched the independent YouTube Music applications, simplify the user experience.
How about next year? Even users of Apple's success next year will be expanded to 10 times, still only 65 million users, Spotify and YouTube's growth slowdown is still unknown. If Spotify does not reach 100 million users mark this month, means the company's users do not have doubled in the past year. Users can reach 150 million next year? So it seems that Apple and the growing gap between these services, unless the company can find a way to attract a large number of users, or for a long time will continue to lose out on Spotify and Pandora.
This hardware device with Samsung and Microsoft first-mover advantages in the field of different. In front of the Apple Music launch, there are 67% Americans use streaming music services a week. Since there is no free file, so Apple is difficult to persuade the public to use their services. Unless you must listen to Drake's latest album, or hate the existing service, or not many people will buy Apple Music. If Apple Music wants to catch up with Spotify and YouTube on the number of users, it is necessary to increase the intensity of product development.
Publishing now, 5 months later, Apple iOS version Music is full of loopholes. Using the service at the desk not much where, just like 2008 will still have to deal with iTunes. Best feature of this service is always open Beats of Radio 1, does not require paid accounts can also be used. For me, still keep iTunes to occasionally buy some cheryldahle songs. If you're like me, then when the Spotify application effect is good, Pandora can also be compatible with all devices, YouTube can also provide a lot of entertainment content would certainly be willing to use this bloated programs.
Although still lags behind competitors, but Apple isn't completely out of the game. Every year the company can sell hundreds of millions of mobile phones, the Apple store has enough flow, can persuade some users to use their services. But if Apple really wanted to catch up with competitors, you need to provide more attractive options than the 3-month probationary period in order to convince people to abandon years of service.
I test this summer when Apple Music and found that it was the best discovery engine. It has good songs, but can I use this service quickly elect my favorite songs in the process. In my assessment two days after the release, Spotify has launched Discover Weekly playlist, which is one of the best music in recent years, 5 months the playback capacity of 1.7 billion. It is also one of the reasons I'm not going to give up Spotify. Though the Apple Music playlist it's trump card functions, but it must be in a simple way like Spotify take full advantage of user data, users truly satisfied with your service.
Apple Music also needs an independent desktop application from iTunes using, which is one of Apple's software have been cast aside. Earlier this year, Apple in OS x is replaced with iPhoto and Aperture Photos, for most users, this is a good thing. The company should also take similar steps on iTunes, the development of new desktop application version of the Apple Music. Apple can't wait a year until the WWDC in June a major upgrade to the Apple Music, and should speed up the update frequency, to attract people to interact with them more frequently.
When Apple Music when introduced in June this year, music industry think that not using streaming music because of the Apple brand recognition and user experience, and to subscribe to the service. But the reality is that YouTube is simplifying the streaming music experience, Spotify is not under attack, Pandora also strengthened the user base. And to make matters worse, even if Apple Music the right way, but it was too late.
If Apple really wants to win the streaming music wars, we must raise standards, brand to rest on our laurels alone has had it.
Google venture capital (Google Ventures) head of Department bier·malisi (Bill Maris), technology startups wait-listed for a long time. This suggests that differences of opinion for a new generation of start-ups in Silicon Valley are expanding.
Current generation of leading companies, such as Uber, and Airbnb, have opted for as long as time remains in the non-listed State, and through continuous VC financing obtained large sums of money. However, investor sentiment is changing, and begins to feel anxious.
Maris said attractive valuations many start-up companies, rather than to market, and they will feel regret for this decision in the future. He said: "they set a very high benchmark, which will lead to their own survival difficult. This will have negative consequences: some companies will be large losses. ”
Maris predicts that next year there will be many companies cannot continue through the venture financing or forced to accept lower valuations. Since its inception 6 years ago, Google ventures has invested in more than 300 companies.
Investors piled into closed markets in order to have access to Ube, Airbnb and Snapchat and other companies. In recent weeks, however, investors began to risk-averse mood, especially after the blood test startup Theranos challenged.
Maris said: "more, worry less funds on the market, people are becoming more cautious. ”
He also pointed out that the Federal Reserve may decide to raise interest rates, and this venture will be further disadvantaged. "In all of a sudden, became a publicly traded company will be more exciting. ”
The warnings indicated in the latest round of tech industry boom stroke cast ring reversal of attitude. Earlier, the VCs founders said they are allowed to remain in a non-listed State, rather than through IPO (initial public offering), to exit their investments.
Well-known VC Marc Andreessen (Marc Andreessen) said last month that if his investment company are not listed in 15 years, so he will be happy.
Maris said that if is not listed for a long time, shares held by the investors and employees could not be liquidated, and the price of the shares should be decided by Wall Street, instead of through an opaque non-open market.
He said: "I have not seen too much in 15 years maintained high growth in non-listed companies in the case. We should not ignore shareholders and employees. If your shares are not market prices, it would be difficult to meet their needs. ”
Previously, Sequoia Capital maikeer·molici (Michael Moritz) have made similar warnings. Moritz noted that technology companies through IPO, so that business operations are more disciplined. "In the open market under the supervision of, they can do better. ”
About Uber IPO plans, Maris said: "I don't think they considered this issue, because I know that people have been put to them the question. It is clear that their IPO is one of the leading candidates, with good business. ”
2015 is a slightly disappointing year. Suspension concepts such as skateboarding and flying cars fail to massive development. On the upcoming 2016, Microsoft Research predicted the possibility of interesting innovations.
Microsoft released Microsoft think that innovation that may occur in 2016. Prediction of a wide range of innovations, including new processor technologies and data.
The following is one of the main items:
1. the Internet replace TV
Microsoft Asia Research Institute expects Hsiao Dean, in 2016, the online video publishing will replace television, while Chinese people watching the Olympics over the Internet would be much more television viewers. In other words, broadcasters should stop fighting "cord" trend and instead embrace future entertainment mode based on the Internet.
2. the stylus will be fully
Microsoft Researcher bier·bakesidun (Bill Buxton) expected of pen-based computing technology will fully come in 2016. Such projections are reasonable, especially considering Apple has support in the iPad Pro stylus.
3. focus shift in technology industry
Buxton believes that on technology development, user-focused digital decoration and white elephant turned to enhance user experience and bring more value to the user, helping users to play to their potential.
4. new types of processors
From the United Kingdom member of the Cambridge Microsoft Research kelisi·bixiaopu (Chris Bishop) is expected, a new type of processor coming to realize complex calculations such as machine learning, and the GPU (graphics processing unit) and cause more strong performances.
5. the data of ethics will be more important
Privacy problems with the data collection has been the focus of public discussion. Microsoft Researcher Kaite·kelaofude (Kate Crawford) that for this type of problem in 2016, will be a critical year. She predicts that data science research project will introduce about digital ethics, so as to better understand the effects of large-scale data collection and testing.
Though my heart also continued to take a beating, will also continue to be milled, but my body knew, it's time to say goodbye. ”
Although strength dramatically, but the body has blocked Bryant's pace. With Kobe Bryant announced his retirement on the Twitter, legendary gold 961 gradually came to an end, story finally over a period of up to 20 years, many fans were saddened and frustrated. However, the NBA still is a hero of the battle, although the legend has ended, but the soldier spirit will never die!
Phone rings, there are also many "era is gone, classics still exist", unforgettable models, with "legendary ending, old soldiers never die" sentence to describe the most appropriate. Here, small series from the design and functionality to tell you about the "out of breath" classic mobile phone.
Functional
If the phone rings now and what events can affect the heart, then heroes of this event is "Nokia".
Excellent quality and jokes like "crack walnuts" riff, the flowing of Nordic origin Finland mobile phone brand with a lot of people have gone through an era in which carries the memories of many people, culminating in the Smartphone era gradually collapse, to the end. However, for many in the Nokia, era through the people, "Nokia" three words are always a heavy weight, not belief, for years to settle, is the quality.
Nokia 1100, it should be said was a legendary phone. 5 years went public in 2003, it sold a total of 250 million units, becoming the best-selling mobile phone, no one! The sales of even the most popular iPhone to shame.
No delicate of retina screen, and no rich of application software, even no camera, Nokia 1100 only has a flashlight, Mono ringtones, soft quality dust key, can accommodate 50 article SMS of storage capacity (transceiver the 25 article) and 400 hours standby time, certainly also can hit walnut, on has, also has accompanied with of we spent countless a lonely boring night of greedy snake. In the era of mobile Internet is not developed, the handset brings us much joy, although the original, but not forgotten.
Of course, this phone has been discontinued for a long time, might be able to dig up in the secondary market, and in most cases have become collectibles, however, as the machine is very good. It is said that without GPS, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi capabilities of the Nokia 1100, is very popular in the golden triangle.
Industrial design
？ iPhone 4&iPhone 4s
IPhone 4S is the dominant design Joe Don's last works, but is released by Tim Cook took office, launch day, unwell he may be at home watching TV. It is regrettable that, on October 5, 2011, the second day after the release of iPhone 4s, Joe's father died of pancreatic cancer. Even though Apple says iPhone 4S "s" refers to the: "Siri" voice Assistant, media and fans will be more willing to read iPhone 4S as "iPhone 4 (for) s (Steve)", to pay tribute to Mr jobs. Therefore, even in the era of iPhone 6s, this phone is still special.
IPhone 4 and iPhone 4S historical significance aside, don't tell, the industrial design of the phone has a very subversive at the time, especially the iPhone 4. Engadget iPhone 4 hands-on evaluation of a phrase to describe the phone: "Apple for the next-generation iPhone should have what kind of shape it is clear after a lot of careful consideration, should be to give the user a completely new design, not to rehash." Obviously, countless praise language that is difficult to describe the iPhone 4 brings amazing feeling that year, most people exclaimed: How could it be? (How is that possible? )
At the WWDC keynote, Steve Jobs likened the iPhone 4 for a "has a classic, beautiful shape of the Leica camera", and this pride is still in force. Exactly, double glass + metal box on the iPhone 4 design has become a design model, that was a lot of Android phones compete to imitate. Galaxy S6 was hailed as the best Samsung mobile phones, a large reason was abandoned thousands of plastic and using this simple and stylish design.
Xperia Z L36h
Speaking of another giant industrial design: Sony.
"Industrial design" of judgment itself has a lot of subjectivity, but Sony industrial design level is recognized, can be said to represent a modern Japan industrial design development. Perhaps now, Sony is not at its peak, but there is no doubt that industrial design in this area, it is still a colossus.
Xperia z L36h Debuts at CES on the 2013 event, but also show one of the most prominent models. This double-sided glass light coupled with a more angular design of the fuselage perfectly demonstrates the level of Sony's top industrial design, which contains a Japanese "exquisite and comprehensive" character design has been in use ever since Sony called it--"OmniBalance" fully balanced design.
Of course, after all these people so far, "OmniBalance" is not the original sense of the kind of stunning, mimicking the design of the brand are rare at present. Simple Japanese style, ultimate pursuit of details destined to Sony cell phones is a popular niche brands, just like you don't like wearing 45R wearing UNIQLO, like KOKIA's song like you instead of Ayumi Hamasaki, a small minority, but a classic.
This is the charm of the Sony design.
Nokia N9
Remains of former Giants Nokia products, in addition to "only a Meego mobile phone" from the special status of Nokia N9 also creating one molded polycarbonate cover precedent, this colorful cover design had been inherited from the era of Lumia, and became a classic.
Lumia series phones are not mainstream models, although it carries the WP system is also known as "three major mobile operating system", but in a minority position. However, Nokia N9 one molded polycarbonate rear cover in the age of Lumia survived well, sharp color system injection, together with first-class industrial design level, Lumia phone in Android and the iPhone can be caught in the two giants survive, fought out a blood.
Of course, despite the strong polycarbonate plastic, but the plastic itself is giving a "nameless" cheap feeling, especially in this era of metal body power. For manufacturers, coloured polycarbonate material often exists as a younger crowd positioning models, representatives of youth and vigor, it is regrettable that these phones are usually low-end models. Insist on flagship machine for use on polycarbonate material, perhaps only the Lumia.
After all, this is the legacy of Nokia, era.
Summary
Mobile phone is small, it is a communications tool; mobile phone is very large, it changed the way we live. In any case, times in advance, technology and design to promote at the same time, people's needs and taste also unknowingly changed, these phones may have sealed into the books of history, perhaps in front of us they have become unremarkable, but behind them, represents a whole epoch.
science and technology news site 9to5Mac said, while fourth-generation Apple TV set-top box just listed a month, but its next-generation product has entered the production phase.
This message is the source of Taiwan media DigiTimes, Apple's supply chain manufacturers Quanta is said to have received the next generation Apple TV set-top box production order is expected early production might be in 2016.
Enter the trial phase, which means this product development process has finished.
The speed is amazing, because the latest fourth generation Apple TV released in September this year, officially listed only in November. But considering the third-generation Apple TV is at June's Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) launch, the fourth generation is said to be the cooperation did not on well so will be delayed until September. So, back to the right point in time this year, explained make sense.
We just worry about whether people really update to the Apple TV has such high demand? If a year like a phone upgrade, Apple must come up with something to attract more people, just like they do on the iPhone.
Is said to be a new generation of Apple TV hardware configuration will increase, but the key fact is that Apple uses to create mobile set-top box, "hardware + ecosystem" model. This line of thinking in the fourth-generation set-top box begin to take shape, in addition to watching network TV shows, Apple Remote control handle into game, joined his tvOS ecosystem, and distribute the SDK API, to attract application developers to give it more.
This is the Apple company participating in the event for the third year in a row, is also the second year in a row in the Apple Store retail stores around the world to carry out this activity. For most people, "programming one hour" is a rare Word, it is, therefore, Apple's Senior Vice President of software engineering, Craig Fedrighi (Craig Federighi) on Friday calls Sina science and technology online, explains why Apple about this activity.
Hour of Code, Chinese name for "programming one hour", this activity was initiated by the Code.org, computer science lectures aimed at encouraging participation by teenagers, reduce the threshold to get started programming, so that they no longer think programming is a mysterious and elusive thing.
This activity on the phone when Fedrighi is given a set of numbers: so far, already has 465 stores to participate in the activities, and cover to China. More than 1400 global talks is expected to have more than 10,000 young people will be educated.
Programming hour is not the depth of education, just as in Apple's retail stores free photo or video clip tutorials as, it is enlightenment.
According to Fedrighi's argument, and program activities the aim is to give young people an hour were the door to open a program, it's a spark, may help teens change their way of thinking or promote creativity, or even become their future career direction.
Fedrighi comments may be made, is his own code of agricultural origin, and can be said to be small children: at the age of 10, was sent by his mother to related courses started programming, then realized it was his thing to do for the rest.
70, young began his road to programming Fedrighi with Mac. Then enter the NeXT company, also joined the company. Now, as head of Apple's software, in recent years, the Apple Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) can see his shadow on the stage.
In fact, Apple is not the initiator of this activity, if traced back, many Silicon Valley companies have been involved in programming hour, its originators Code.org is a public institution, the sponsor is a former Microsoft high Guan Hadi-Hadi partovi (Hadi Partovi), and received the support of many Silicon Valley executives. If you look back at the last year's news, you'll find such as "Microsoft invited the children of migrant workers to learn programming," "Barack Obama United States first programming President" or "Zuckerberg and the gates to the United States 10 million students taught computer science" such as reporting.
Fedrighi explained that Apple's advantage lies in the Apple store, as we said at the beginning, Apple store had just sold the products where, at present, it is the gathering place of Apple fans. Staff are good at product information what is the corporate culture here will be passed to the user, this is the Apple store beneath the glossy appearance of the kernel. IMovie is cut in the past, GarageBand Music Editor tutorial, now joined the programming classes.
"Apple's in-store environment is good, but on the other hand, these elements are located in the downtown area, can attract a limited number, how to enhance audience? "Sina science and technology made this problem, Fedrighi advice is to Code.org online learning platform, so that everyone can participate.
In addition, students from poor areas of China are still many Fedrighi when it comes to the matter said Apple hopes to extend coverage of this event, to cover more area.
On this event, Apple's Senior Vice President in charge of retail stores and online stores, Angela alundeci (Angela Ahrendts) also expressed their views: retail store team loved the rich young life activities. Students are constantly growing and learning at the same time, community also became involved in the programming and development and expansion. In our retail store, the best team to educate and inspire the next generation of Apple products, is the most meaningful gift I can think of.
Apple's recent two-year high to participate in volunteer activities, and perhaps the regeneration of programming hours is not as May Lin or October of clean energy projects that need to invest a lot of money, but Apple the importance assigned to this event to open than the other two.
"Programming is an exciting creative expression" Fedrighi the idea is very simple, just like his own personal experiences, so that more children will be able to contact computer education at an early age, let them select do you want to learn to program, not because the school does not teach this course will lose an opportunity to choose.
Although there is no press conference shortly before debut, but after the launch CEO Lei admitted being very generous with millet millet 5, which gives us the machine is full of curiosity. Recently, the millet official Micro-Blog released a Twitter picture attracted our attention, because the plane is not the millet has released models, which the outside world speculated that the aircraft was probably millet 5.
Judging from the photo, this millet is the new machine has a high proportion of screen, should adopt the design of ultra thin border. As the photo on the description of the new machine is not much, so we were unable to get more information, you will see only the machine also has a relatively thin fuselage.
According to previous information show, phone 5 ultra narrow frame design, its cameras and sensors at the top of the machine using a symmetrical layout. The aircraft carrying 5.2-inch touch screen, the resolution will be 2 k level, equipped with 4GB RAM memory, with optional 16GB/64GB body capacity, and built-in 16 million pixel primary camera, supports the OIS optical image stabilization technology. In addition, the millet 5 will built-in 3000mAh battery.
It is reported that this flagship product will be joining the ClearForce technology, the technology similar to Apple's iPhone on the 6S 3D touch function, developed by Synaptics. But better than 3Dtouch ClearForce technology, the technology that can sense the user pressing a different, and more action. Such experiences are mainly applied on the game, such as racing games, touch on the accelerator the Accelerator can be reflected through pressure on the screen, to achieve a more realistic gaming experience.
IT houses news on December 5, known as the first to use liquid metal phone Turing Phone (Turing the phone) has made a lot of eyeballs, the company recently showed off the fall and water testing. According to the company's statement, the aircraft should have been officially listed on the 18th, but unfortunately the listing time delayed to the first quarter of next year.
According to the Turing machine industry company (TRI) CEO of shidifu·Zhou says, because of the delay in the company's proprietary encryption technology embedded Android has encountered some difficulties, more time may be needed.
It is learned that Turing Phone used on the airframe materials, a composite material called Liquidmorphium metals, hardness known as higher than the stainless steel and titanium. Configuration, the machine features a 5.5-inch 1080P display, powered by Gao Tongxiao 801 processor; 3GB RAM+16/64/128GB ROM,1300 megapixel rear-facing camera + 8 million front-facing camera battery capacity 3000mAh, running Android 5.1 system with IPx8 waterproof function, supporting LTE 4G.
Turing Phone extension for an IPO also apologetically, ready to give the previous appointment of consumer compensation, users who previously purchased the machine free of charge upgrade memory upgrade 16G to 64G,64G will be upgraded to 128G.
