Nikon: a new camera on Android

After a Nikon S800c that has not marked the spirits, Nikon tries again to launch a camera on Android. S810c is the first camera, with classic features: illuminated CMOS sensor 16 million pixels (1/2, 3 inches), 25-300 mm lens in 35mm equivalent (12x zoom so) and 3 ISO 200 at maximum. He filmed in 1080p30 and has a microSD and a internal memory of 1GB location for photos.

For the Android part, we have a 3.7-inch 720 x 480 LCD technology. The processor is based on Cortex A9, no further details (hopefully at least a dual core 1.2 GHz), and the device has 4GB of internal memory. This memory, there is 1 GB for applications, approximately 1 GB for photos and the rest is in principle reserved for Android 4.2.2, which runs the unit. In terms of connectivity, it has Wi-Fi (11n), a headphone jack, a microUSB socket and microHDMI output.

 

This camera's main advantage is its price: 300 €. But for the rest, cameras Android Samsung (or rather smartphones oriented photo) are more technically interesting, as the latest smartphones of the brand, which have a 16-megapixel sensor. For those who want to send photos via Instagram and social networks in general, the solution of Nikon may seem interesting, but limited technical capacity and the use of a system already exceeded (Android 4.4 is beginning to be implemented) which concern the worst.

Samsung Galaxy Note 2 review

The Super AMOLED HD from 5.3 to 5.5 inches but retains a definition of 1280 x 720 pixels.  The embedded processor is homemade, as is the custom in the past few months and Samsung is a quad-heart Exynos 1.6 GHz with 2 GB RAM, 16 GB of storage and a 3100 mAh battery muscular.  Terminal side, there is a micro-USB port (compatible MHL to liaise USB / HDMI to a TV) and under the back cover a microSD slot to expand the storage capacity up to 32GB more.  Photo and video capture is ensured by a 8 megapixel sensor with LED flash and a 2 megapixel webcam live in the front.

Galaxy Note obliges found stuck in the smartphone stylus developed using Wacom gender specialist.  Stylus changing compared to the first model, in substance and in form.  Radius operating system is version 4.1 of Android Jelly Bean that animates everything but Samsung adds its TouchWiz interface.

The Samsung Galaxy Note is marketed in two indicative price of Rs. 38,500 white or gray titanium.  Of 32 and 64 GB versions are planned.

Design

The Galaxy Note 2 changes very little compared to the first appearance of the name.  The 5.5-inch screen extends slightly the look of the whole, as, relatively speaking, the iPhone 4S compared to 5 and passes a 16:10 aspect ratio to 16:9.  The device also borrows lines of Galaxy S3 .

One may regret the massive use of plastic for the constitution of the smartphone, but the density of the set and the level of finish of the material compensates slightly.

Screen

AMOLED technology embedded on mobile promises infinite contrast, the vivid and beautiful reactivity.  Please note that Samsung has 4 display modes: Dynamic, Standard, Natural and Video.  In practice, it begins with a promise logically held since the contrast side is absolute black.  To this must be added a maximum brightness of 253 cd / m², which is 140 cd / m² less than the Note.

 Note that this brightness is achieved for light areas in composite images.  White image, for example, will lower its maximum brightness (100 cd / m²) to save battery and your retina.

The persistence time, AMOLED forces, is almost zero.  Samsung always brings his motion compensation "curtain" (actually the image appears gradually) to thin even videos.

In the end, this screen represents a certain evolution, especially in the balance of color rendering.  If the maximum brightness down a bit, the entire display is powerful enough to provide indoor and outdoor sun but too direct.

S-Pen 

The reason the original Note caught the public imagination was its S-Pen stylus, which transformed the device from an oddball smartphone/tablet into something people wanted to work and play with.The stylus now resides in a slot at the bottom of the device, and it’s a slim but very manageable effort with a nice, rounded profile. The Note 2 actively recognises when you’ve pulled the stylus from its sheath and takes you to a gallery of templates for the S Note note-taking app, where you can doodle, list or annotate to your heart’s content.

Interface and Navigation

If the Galaxy Note 2 includes Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, there is finally some differences between this terminal and a Galaxy S3 to its output, due to the use of the TouchWiz interface, which completely covers the Google OS.  We invite you to visit and test our Galaxy S3 to learn more about the basics of the TouchWiz interface.

In terms of pure computing power, all the tests show, the Exynos embedded in Note 2 is the most powerful processor to date on the market.  However, the graphics device (chip Mali 400 MP) is identical to that of the Galaxy S3, which is still enough to play the entire contents of Google Play Store.

Power that results in a constant flow, rather than on a Galaxy S3 which can sometimes hurt output from web app or with small snags.  Here everything is fast, very fast.  As the GS3, power is demonstrated by the possibility of active content, like a video in a pop up window.  It takes a little more sense on a screen of 5.5 inches and can keep an eye on the series while writing an SMS.

 Multimedia

Web browsing is fast and especially pleasant.  If the screen does not have extra accuracy due to a definition identical to the first note, however, it is sufficient to provide perfect legibility for all content types.  And that, as in portrait mode to landscape mode.

Multimedia playback (photo, video and audio) is a classic on Samsung devices.  To make it simple, take your content in Note 2 and let the reader make adequate rest.  For videos, the files are 1080p course of the game.  Still happy with this screen!

The headphone output of the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 does not differ from the first.  It therefore provides a sound reproduction combines a good dynamic and powerful sound in the middle, without emitting any signal distortion.  In sum, we are faced with a good quality product, well built and controlled.

Another good point, the external speaker is powerful enough to listen to some music clips without having to listen.  The Headset is itself always to be avoided, allowing only extra just listening.

The sensor photo video is a little better than its older but still somewhat below the 8MP of the iPhone 5 , especially on the level of detail captured.

In contrast, Note 2 passes Apple in the management of low brightness.  Skin tones are reproduced and the flash is on the same level as the Galaxy S3, namely that subjects are not burned like the iPhone or even the first note.

The first to be launched around 500 euros, while the second, later spearheaded the brand, should see its price vary from 600 to 650 euros depending on the country.

Nokia has delivered, through its Italian site, some information on the launch of its future smartphones Windows Phone 8, the Lumia 820 and Lumia 920.  On this page , we learn that the two terminals are expected to enter the market in the month of November, a date expected and logical, since Microsoft is expected to launch its operating system around October 29.

 The book also Finnish manufacturer suggested retail price for these two terminals in Italy: it is set to 499 euros for the Lumia 820, and 599 euros for the Lumia 920.  For the latter, however, should give vary by country.  In Germany, a press release indicates that the launch will take place and also in November, but this time did state a suggested retail price of 649 euros.

Asus and Google would work on low cost version of the Nexus 7

According to the site Digitimes, Asus and Google prepare low cost version of their tablet Nexus 7, which could be sold below $ 100 by the end of the year. Another version, thinner, could accompany him.

Digitimes , citing "industry sources," explains Google and Asus is preparing to stiff competition at the end of the year, particularly because of the expected launch of a 7-inch iPad mini.  The two firms, which launched in late August their tablet versions 8 and 16 GB respectively 199 and 249 euros, have not said their last word for 2012.

 We thus find the program a slimmer version of the current model, which would be available in the U.S. at a price of $ 199 - the price of the current 8GB version in the United States - but also a model that would cost $ 99.

 At this stage of the rumor, impossible to know what size could imply lower prices: Digitimes merely states that these new versions, Asus would have turned to the Taiwanese manufacturer for HannStar Display screens.

 The site Digitimes is not always exemplary reliability when it comes to speculate on future products, but this rumor could motivate some buyers wait a bit before investing in a tablet.

All you do is send your pics to the PoGo wirelessly via Bluetooth (mobile phone) or with a USB lead (PictBridge-friendly camera) and watch in awe as this smart gizmo churns out a quality image on a 2"x3" slice of sticky-back photo paper in under 60 seconds. In a word, wow! You can then peel off the backing and stick your pics wherever you fancy. 

All the photos are waterproof, smudge-proof, fade-resistant and tear-proof. The printer can hold up to 10 sheets of Zink paper. If you want one, you can buy the PoGo Instant Photo Printer for approx. $63.72.
