Thinner Than a Dime

The 14-inch Razer Blade gaming laptop measures merely 0.70 inches ultra-thin, giving you access to impressive power per cubic inch compared to the conventional Ultrabook™.

Thin + Powerful = Blade

Traditionally, gaming laptops have been made with a variety of complex components, which add unnecessary thickness and weight. We went in a different direction with the Blade by choosing specially crafted components. This allowed us to make a product that is thinner, lighter and more powerful. Incorporated is a highly efficient thermal solution that is capable of harnessing the power of the latest Intel® Core™ i7 processor and NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX 870M gaming grade graphics all in an ultra-thin form factor.

KRK Systems Rokit 5 G2: newest generation of speakers

KRK Systems Rokit 5 G2: newest generation of speakers

We’ll start with the KRK Rokit 5s, the smallest monitors in the G2 line, with 6-inch and 8-inch models available as well. We found them pretty easy to position, and they work well on a desk, but they’re at their best on stands, naturally.

The stereo image is good and the top end is detailed. There’s a nice soft dip in the upper mid-range and slightly forward bass (which makes the monitors more exciting to use), with a pleasing tonality that doesn’t fatigue.

The bass is surprisingly deep and solid, making the Rokit 5s good for dance, rock, hip-hop and other ‘punchy’ styles, but lighter material is handled well, too. When mixing, subtleties such as the articulation of the bass guitar come across fine, and it’s easy to appreciate the results of tweaking effects.

Pleasing and pretty consistent, with no nasty surprises in the bass end, these are great little monitors for the price.

It will cost of £270 or Php. 19,980.00 here in the Philippines.

OLED is the best display technology

OLED is the best display technology

Consumer Reports says that OLED is the best display technology, as it combines the best features of plasmas and LCDs. They say that the emerging technology is "really going to shake up the television industry".

"What we like about OLED is that it delivers on the deep black levels and unlimited viewing angles that we've come to expect from the best plasmas," said Claudio Ciacci from Consumer Reports. "At the same time it delivers on the power efficiency, super-thin bezel design and also the bright picture that we've come to expect from LCD TVs."

Consumer Reports are running LG's new OLED TV (the 55EC9300) through a "battery of tests", and so far it is delivering. There are subtle issues with color accuracy and grey shades reproduction, but overall the picture is "really terrific".

This is not surprising - pretty much all OLED TV reviews stated that the first wave of OLED TVs offer the best picture quality ever seen.

The HP Stream

All new The HP Stream

After a tentative showing last month, HP has officially announced its super-budget-friendly Windows 8.1 machine, the HP Stream notebook. Already being dubbed as a “Chromebook-killer,” the AMD-powered Stream is expected to hit shelves around Sept. 24. There is a caveat, however, as the laptop is retailing for $100 more than previously announced. 


When it ships, the 14-inch Stream will have a thickness of 0.7-inches and weigh approximately 3.8 pounds. The laptop will feature a 14-inch, 1366 x 768-pixel display and run full Windows 8.1. Powered by an AMD AR Micro-6400T Quad process, the Stream will be completely fanless. HP estimates that the Stream will get up 6.5 hours of battery life.

Other specs include 2GB of RAM and 32GB of onboard storage. If that’s not enough, the Stream will have expandable storage via a microSD slot. HP is also offering 25GB of Dropbox storage for 6 months and a whopping 100GB of OneDrive storage for 2 years — at no cost to the consumer. As per ports, you’ll have a USB 3.0 port, USB 2.0, HDMI and a headphone jack. 


While the initial specs look solid for the price, it remains to be seen how the Stream will stand up to the current generation of Chromebooks — particularly HP’s own Chromebook 14 ($289), which comes loaded with a 1.4-GHz Celeron CPU and boasts nearly 8 hours of battery life.

What is new on iOS 8

                                                   What is new on iOS 8

Quickly find and edit the photos you take. Add your voice right in a text message. Let your health and fitness apps communicate with each other, with your trainer, and even with your doctor. We’ve also provided developers with deeper access and more tools. You’ll have new keyboard options and even more ways to share your content. And you’ll be able to use iCloud and Touch ID in ways you never have before. Here are some of the things iOS 8 can do for you so you can do more than ever.

Photos

The all-new Photos app makes it simpler than ever to find and rediscover your favorite photos with new search features and smart albums that organize your photos for you. And you can make every shot look even better immediately after you’ve taken it with powerful new editing tools, no matter your skill level.

Messages

Now Messages lets you connect with friends and family like never before. Tap to add your voice to any conversation. Send a video of what you’re seeing the moment you’re seeing it. And easily share your location so they know right where you are.

Design

In iOS 8, you’ll find a convenient new way to respond to notifications. Helpful shortcuts to the people you talk to most. And time-saving features for managing your mail. All of which make the experience of using your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch that much better.

Quick Type

iOS 8 makes typing easier by suggesting contextually appropriate words to complete your sentences. It even recognizes to whom you’re typing and whether you’re in Mail or Messages. Because your tone in an email may be different from your tone in a message.

Family Sharing

Up to six people in your household can easily share each other’s purchases from iTunes, iBooks, and the App Store. You can also keep up with each other’s photos, calendars, locations, and more.

iCloud Drive

The good news: You can work on any file, anywhere. The bad news: You can work on any file, anywhere. That includes presentations, PDFs, images, and more — right from iCloud. On whichever device you’re using, including your Mac or PC.

Health

Now your activity tracker, heart rate monitor, and other health and fitness apps can talk to each other. Which means they’ll be able to work even harder for you. And all the information is accessible in one easy‑to‑read dashboard.

Continuity

 Things are about to get even better for people with multiple Apple  devices. Now you can start an email on one device and seamlessly  continue on another. And iPhone owners can answer phone calls on  their Mac or iPad, and also send SMS messages from any of them.

Spotlight

  

     Sometimes you’re looking for a contact or an app. Sometimes you’re      looking for answers. Spotlight now gives you suggestions from                Wikipedia entries, places nearby, trending news, and more. It’s            even smart enough to recognize context and location to offer you          the most relevant information

The new OS for Mac. called the "OS X Yosemite"

The new OS for Mac. called "OS X Yosemite"

OS 10.10 Yosemite for Mac

OS X 10.10, codenamed Syrah and officially named Yosemite, is the 2014 version of the Mac operating system currently in development by Apple. OS X 10.10 was shown off at WWDC 2014 on June 2 and will be released sometime in the fall. In addition to new features, OS X brings interface and experience refinements to Apple's desktop operating system, similar in spirit if not exact execution to the iOS 7 makeover of 2013 — interface depth and translucency effects, textual clarity and other elements to improve the overall user experience.

But that's just scratching the surface. There are a ton of new features under the hood.

OS X 10.10 Yosemite design language

Last year Jony Ive and Apple's design team spent so much time working on iOS 7's new look, OS X mostly got the linen and the leather — if not the felt — stripped out but not much else. The intent was always to go back and give OS X the design attention it deserved as well.

Yosemite employs clearer, smarter and easier-to-understand controls, with streamline toolbars, translucent elements and clean, consistent icon design. An updated system font also improves readability. Depth, deference and clarity are the design guidelines Apple first employed in iOS 7, and now we're seeing that work continue over to Yosemite.

Continuity

Apple doesn't seem compelled to blur the lines between iOS 8 and OS X 10.10 as much as obliterate them, at least where it makes sense to. Continuity is what Apple's calling that — design that enables one device to complement the other. Handoff, for example, lets you start an activity on your iPad or iPhone and continue it on your Mac. And Instant Hotspot lets your Mac use your phone more easily. SMS and MMS messages sent to your phone will automatically appear in Messages on all your devices; you can even make and receive phone calls on your Mac when your iPhone is on the same network.

OS X 10.10 and AirDrop

AirDrop debuted on the Mac but after several initial attempts to bring it to iOS were shot down as overly complex, the version that finally shipped in iOS 7 wasn't even compatible with the Mac.

That changes with OS X 10.10 as the teams at Apple get their protocols back in sync and their cross-platform beaming fully in order.

OS X 10.10 Notification Center

Notification Center gets a rework with the new Today view — a quick look at everything you need to know. Apple's also introducing Notification Center Widgets to help you view your calendar, weather, stocks, reminders and a World Clock, and the API is open for developers to use to create custom Widgets that can be downloaded from the Mac App Store.

OS X 10.10 Spotlight

Spotlight's now in the Spotlight. Apple's search feature in OS X has been taken out of the realm of just file search; now it can find applications (making it a potential replacement for Apple's Launchpad app) and content on the Internet (putting it toe to toe with the popular third-party tool Alfred). It will view search results from Wikipedia, the App Store, iTunes Store, iBooks Store and more.

iCloud Drive

Apple's integration with cloud-based storage and services continues with 10.10 and iOS 8 thanks to iCloud, which lets you store any kind of file online. It also works with a Windows PC.

OS X 10.10 bottom line

The Mac's operating system is beyond mature, but there's huge room for improvement. Apple's moving iOS 8 and OS X 10.10 together, forward, for a new era of interdevice and intersystem communication. It's going to be very exciting to watch. Stay with us as we provide you with more details.

Anyway, the release of the OS X Yosemite is on October 21th this year.

Why iPhone 6 & iPhone 6 Plus are too expensive

Why iPhone 6 & iPhone 6 plus are too expensive

well iphone 6 & iPhone 6 plus is an another spectacular product from apple. maybe apple had an agreement to make these products to be luxurious than ever before. so these iPhones are maybe too expensive because in stylish and design made by apple.

Here in the Philippines, iPhone 6 ranging from Php. 60,000 to 120,000 pesos. i had no idea why iPhone 6 is very expensive here in the Philippines.

More affordable than ever

 What Apple has done, however, is to drop the price of both base models by $100. This means you can pick up an 11-inch MacBook Air for $899, while the 13-inch model will set you back only $999.

Since Apple's Retina MacBook Pro refresh last fall, Apple's 13-inch laptops have been the most crowded product segment of the Macintosh line — up until yesterday, the 13-inch MacBook Air, 13-inch MacBook Pro and 13-inch MacBook Pro with Retina display were separated by $200: $1099 for the MacBook Air, $1199 for the MacBook Pro and $1299 for the Retina MacBook Pro.

This created confusion for many Mac customers not intimately familiar with the technical differences between systems. They were faced with a what seemed to be a perplexing array of choices. For the uninitiated, the mix of CPU speeds, features, and storage options seemed bizarre: A 1.3 GHz laptop, followed by a 2.5 GHz laptop with four times the storage, followed by a 2.4 GHz laptop with the same storage as the system on the other end of the spectrum.

That $100 drop gives the 13-inch MacBook Air a little headroom to differentiate itself from the MacBook Pro line. It also drops the tiny 11-inch model squarely into the high end of the Ultrabook price range. Apple doesn't compete on price with the Mac compared to the much more commodity-priced Windows PC (and now Chromebook) market, but it has made the 11-inch MacBook Air a more palatable choice for budget-focused Mac customers.

Refreshing the MacBook Air now suggests that Apple won't touch the line again in June when WWDC rolls around; WWDC was Apple's venue to refresh the line in 2012 and 2013. Intel's still working to get its delayed Broadwell processors out the door, so it's no great surprise that Apple's providing a modest bump to the MacBook Air now.

As an aside, I find the standard 13-inch MacBook Pro still the odd man out in this revamped product matrix. It hasn't been refreshed since 2012 and I don't think it will be again, simply because it doesn't reflect Apple's current design or performance aesthetic.

Who should get the MacBook Air?

If you're looking for Apple's lightest, most portable laptop, the MacBook Air is a better value than ever before. The refreshed processor isn't that much of a draw — it's the new lower price that's key.

Obviously if you have a 2013-era MacBook Air, this mild update isn't really worth jumping ship for — the performance update is negligible, and I doubt many Mac users will want to upgrade last year's model just to get improved battery playback while watching iTunes movies. Having said that, if you have an older MacBook Air and you're thinking about a replacement, now may be the right time, unless rumors of a Retina display-equipped MBA come to pass.

The 13-inch MacBook Air, at $999, is a no-brainer for anyone who values light weight and easy portability over performance. It's a spectacular Mac laptop that runs all day without needing a charge, though I might recommend bumping the RAM up to 8 GB (another $100) to help give it a bit more headroom to run memory-intensive apps.
