Spring of 2016 Apple product launches

Smartphone's battery durability is always the user's problem, many users love machine is equipped with a mobile power for himself, to solve the power shortage problem. Mobile power when the battery runs out, if away from home is not charging what should I do? Little thought is solar power, but little wants to play the spirit of DIY, solar panels with side into things together, charge the phone in times of emergency. Do it, mark? Michael Kors case for Note 4

Small selection of Shenzhen Tong carried out every day, solar panels can be found on Taobao, won't go into detail here.

Dimensions and as a normal bank card for Shenzhen Tong, is standard 85x54mm, small selection of solar panels come in two widths, a 26mm, a 52mm. Each solar cell voltage 0.5V, to reach the phone needs 5V voltage output at least 10 blocks of solar panels in series, divided into two rows. Following are small drawings of the machine before you start drawing:

Shenzhen Tong affixed with double-sided adhesive foil on the back, and then on the solar panels a drop 502 glue, to be posted on the Shenzhen Tong (Note location of drops of glue do not hinder the panels and copper contacts), first completed panels:

Solar panels are blue positive is negative, the back is positive, measuring voltage with multimeter try:

0.381V, 0.5V rated voltage output had not been met, it seems one or two more blocks.

Then other panels put up a piece on the positive pressure in the first negative, tiles like a piece, the first row a total of 5 blocks, measuring a voltage (next to the strip of panels are used to connect the first and second rows):

2.06V, average per 0.4V.

Then put the rest of the tail stuck panels, with a total of 11 panels.

Another problem is that post to generate the electric field will affect the induction of Shenzhen Tong? So to the next subway station tried it, and found to be normal:

USB connector to do next, a small hand on without a USB HUB, have plenty of joints can be broken down by:

Sub HUB by small, small iron undersized, split when some trouble:

Checked the USB interface definition, only on the edge of two-pin plug in the power supply, left-right, wiring not connected backwards:

Removed the USB interface to handle, cut the middle two pins, saw out a slot happened to be on the Shenzhen Tong card:

Plug the USB interface on the Shenzhen Tong card, defined by the USB interface, cathode and copper connections.

Then you can use off-the-shelf USB cable connection, a voltage measurement, standard 5.00V:

Then there's the film, PE film is photo laminator, cut a mouth, through copper foil, just on the negative in a few films.

Pressure effect of film:

In theory, at this point, the card can be a temporary power for mobile power supply. But in fact this "DIY solar mobile power" also has two flaws:

1. the current smaller, indoor photography the light of measured current is 20mA or so, so full now of about 2000mAh mobile takes 100 hours;

2. There is no backflow, you should also add a diode prevents current to flow back into the batteries in the battery on board not only fully into the power but battery is less and less. Michael Kors Note 4

Due to the time constraint, small machine "Shenzhen Tong mobile power" has to end here. Would also like to say a small machine, such a transformation in the DIY spirit of fun, really useful and mobile power supply. However, if you are interested in it, may wish to follow the steps above to make small, maybe when can use it!

IPhone 6 Plus is the screen since Apple is the largest mobile phone products. IPhone 6 Plus HD has a 5.5-inch retina display, a resolution of 1920x1080 pixels, is iPhone 5S 185%. 7.1 mm thickness to thin more than iPhone 5S. IPhone 6 Plus a new feature, called "reachability" to complete one-handed operation of large screen phones: double-click the home health, the main interface will fell from the top of the screen, so that users can touch interface to the top without hands. Overall, the iPhone 6 Plus is a bit like a smaller version of the iPad mini.

Spring of 2016 Apple product launches

Famous Google Nexus 4 is the fourth generation of a son, with its excellent value for money and the son's descent was welcomed by many users. Under the Nexus 4 shine, we seem to have ignored its "predecessor"--LG Optimus g, the phone has the Nexus 4 lots of similar design elements and more robust in the configuration.

Configuration of the Nexus 4 I believe members are very familiar with, we look at the Optimus g configuration:

Model: LG F180L (Korean version)

CPU: Gao Tongxiao S4 Pro APQ8064 quad-core 1.5GHz

Operating system: Android 4.1.2

Screen: 4.7-inch 1280*768 True HD resolution IPS screen

SIM card type: microSIM

Storage space: 32GB (not supported)

RAM:2GB

Connection: Bluetooth ®, Wi-Fi ® IEEE 802.11 a/b/g/n,Micro USB, 3.5mm audio interface

Camera: 13 million megapixel back-illuminated-F/2.4 apertures, front-mounted 1 million.

Battery: 2100mAh is not removable

Other: NFC

Mobile phone: 131.9x68.9x8.45mm

Mobile phone: 145g

See from the configuration, relative Nexus 4, Optimus g configuration of more powerful, 13 million pixel camera, 32G storage space is its advantage. Most encouraging is that revision machine market, Optimus g's market price to around 100 Yuan lower than the Nexus 4, price/performance advantage is obvious.

Optimus g and Nexus 4 for the twins, they are very small differences in shape, configuration, the paper was written by Optimus g relative to the Nexus 4 different parts.

 

Profile

Look on the positive side, is typical of LG Optimus g style, thanks to the fitting screen, coupled with almost invisible while touching the keys do not light up, so a positive look in addition to Logo and camera is black, which is now very popular "premium black" and, of course, by contrast, Nexus 4 there is no Logo is more low-key

 

Optimus g receiver

 

Nexus 4,Optimus g front than have three touch-sensitive keys, and the three keys to bring up the White Backlight, relative to the virtual key, what the users more easily accept the touch keys

 

Optimus g signal is relatively "cheap", the front-facing camera on the left side there is a small led lights, lights and Optimus in the Nexus 4 g Pro Home button lights are low

 

Optimus g founder, Nexus 4 round, both backs have a piece of glass, so special attention must be taken in using shatter-resistant. Their cameras and speakers are the same

 

The difference between back patterns

 

Optimus g thanks to the 13 million cameras, so the camera position will highlight the

 

Side Nexus 4 skin-like slip-resistant material, and Optimus g side uses the piano paint

 

Is also a high degree of consensus on the left side of the fuselage, namely volume, SIM card slot

 

Top noise-reducing microphone and 3.5mm interface and because Optimus g is of course Korean version, is an antenna

 

Is microUSB connector and the microphone at the bottom, of course, the iconic two large screws, many users find this Nexus 4 design flaw

 

 

UI

Because Optimus g official system used LG, Nexus 4 are using Google Android system because of their relatively large differences in systems and UI, of course, the system we are about LG Optimus g Pro as discussed in the evaluation, Google native Android is also a familiar system, here is a brief introduction about the Optimus UI of g.

 

Optimus g Pro, Optimus g Starter seem tighter, Optimus g Starter layout is 4*4, but Optimus g Pro 5*5, and Optimus g search field cannot be deleted

 

In the system menu, drop down basically the same bar, and Optimus g Pro, worth noting is that Optimus g without the function of QSlide apps

 

Initiator and lock screen can add lots of special effects, this is LG's UI features

 

Places to feature Optimus g is comes with a "quad-core control" option, which can open the Eco mode, open after this mode you can turn off two of the CPU core. We all know that APQ8064 's power and heat are more objective, this sets the CPU power can be controlled effectively, of course, need to sacrifice is CPU performance

 

25G free space is a big advantage for Optimus g

 

Performance

Like the Nexus 4, Optimus g also uses the APQ8064 1.5G with 2G Ram matching, difference is using LG Optimus g home systems, optimization of the LG APQ8064 and how is it? We look at performance measurement

 

Theory test

Rabbit test

Optimus g is a very "standard" APQ8064, more than 20,000 points

 

Rabbit 3D

In the test of the GPU, Optimus g good

 

GLBenchmark 2.7

GPU performance tests, in 2.7 version of the test, Optimus g and other APQ8064 devices to play much (Offcsreen frames: 14fps), but in version 2.5, Offscreen only 21fps (normal should be around 30fps), comparison of difference, here will be referred to below

 

BaseMark X

New GPU built in Unity 4.0 engine testing software, On-Screen mode Optimus g relative to the number of frames on the same level of Nexus 4 gaps, but in Off-Screen is more gap in test

 

Practical application

Sunspider Javascript the page test

Optimus g in the single-threaded test does not reveal unexpected and comparable to other phones using the APQ8064

 

Video software solutions

Video decoding software is also an important measure of CPU performance test project, the test project test multithreaded performance CPU, and video hardware solution is different, this is one way to test the CPU computing power. Testing here is a 1080P 60fps ref=16 MP4 video, Optimus g 23 frames number of frames, within normal limits

 

Game

Following test two mainstream games, Dungeon Hunter 4 30 is the average number of frames (maximum effect)

 

Some of the more complex scenarios, only an average of 24 frames, the screen appears

 

Real racing 3 29 is the average number of frames, frames

 

Modern warfare 4 average number 28, poor performance

 

Reduced frequency problems

You can see from the tests above, during the test involving parts of the GPU are prone to abnormal, this is what the reason? We can see by looking at the System/etc/thermald.conf of the CPU and GPU frequency control strategy

From the graph we can see that, when the temperature reached 42 degrees when CPU block knows 1188MHz,GPU down to 320MHz to 44 degrees, GPU is reduced to 200MHz. This explains very well why so many test results are not ideal.

 

In addition, through our Pro system information to view the CPU frequency, can be seen in modern warfare 4 CPU frequency keep most high frequency, but in fact only open running dual-core, this will to a certain extent affected the gaming performance of the play

 

Even in the opening duo, when Optimus g temperature is very high, screen the highest surface temperature has reached 45 degrees Celsius

 

When the phone is when the temperature is too high, soft video solution down will appear, as shown in the following figure, quad-core CPU fully open, but fell to 1.1G

 

Photos

Nexus 4 has always been relatively weak for the camera part and Optimus g camera is 13 million pixels, relative Nexus 4 parameters for better, the following is really making a comparison

 

Optimus G

 

Nexus 4

 

Comparison details

From this photo, Nexus 4 partial color problem is very severe, and screen painting is serious, sharpness is not Optimus g.

 

Optimus G

 

Nexus 4

Comparison details

This one is close to the two, but still can see the Nexus 4 noise Optimus g than serious.

 

Then one of the more "playing God" the idea, due to a high degree of consensus on the hardware, or even developer Nexus 4 BootLoader brush into the Optimus g, this means that the Optimus g can enjoy the Nexus 4 powerful brush resources, of course, brush Nexus 4 ROM directly will cause some minor problems such as 32G, and 13 million camera not working properly. While Optimus g itself has many AOKP, CM10.1 and other native style ROM appeared, which was greatly enhanced by its playability

  Element Case iPhone 6 Cases Element Case

Summary

Optimus g as the Nexus 4 "original", worthy in every respect the work of, compared to Nexus 4, photos are at a huge advantage, and LG's UI performance is satisfactory. Optimus g in terms of gaming performance, mainly GPU block causes, of course we can use some unconventional methods to solve this problem, but subject to the calorific value of the phone itself is large, even with these methods, are some of the symptoms, not the causes of the programme, the key issue is heating control and heat dissipation design is not good enough in itself. Daily use of LG's UI feels good smoothness is high enough, relative to the market price 2300, Optimus g is a worth buying the phone.

Samsung VR headset Entrim 4 d ears don t faint

　　Yesterday, at the SXSW Music Festival South by Southwest, Sony has brought two black technology, one is the desktop with augmented reality capabilities, the other one is the Concept of n, it is a smart device with voice interaction capabilities, can also act as a headset.

　　Today, Samsung's turn to show at the South by Southwest, Samsung research lab also has a project called C-Lab. It gave us a Entrim 4D headphones, and accurate it is a VR (virtual reality) parts, you can have user-perceived sound changes brought about by the movement, thereby enhancing virtual reality experience. Just Cavalli iPhone case

　　Why make a user feel the sound changes the sport. This is because, most of the current VR device is experienced through the eyes of, although we can "see" and "feel" of the object is in motion, but in fact, the body is still, this movement of visually and physically still form a contradiction, this user feel dizzy and sick.

　　Samsung Entrim 4D headset combination of vestibular stimulation and computer algorithms, the synchronized electrical signals are passed to the nerves in the ear, and synchronized with the moving picture on the screen, enabling users to produce immersive feeling.

　　It can not only responsible for the hearing of the cochlea in the inner ear, and is responsible for the balance of the vestibular. Which can make you feel you're sense of movement.

　　Entrim 4D headphones is through electrical stimulation of the inner ear, making it think that the player really is in motion. In this way, people can have more realistic VR experience, and does not feel faint.

　　Entrim 4D creative director Steve Jung said: "virtual reality to experience not only with our eyes. By Entrim 4 d, we want people to use VR--that is the way to experience it all. " Just Cavalli iPhone 5S case

　　Steve Jung also said that in addition to allowing users to "full" experience outside the VR, Entrim 4D headphones through the simulation exercise can also eliminate the Vertigo of VR equipment. This technology is still in the development stage, when consumers have yet to be confirmed.

　　VR for the future direction of development of science and technology, now many VR devices are not mature enough, some devices may cause dizziness, which became the current VR equipment defects.

　　All VR products on the market are almost unavoidable Vertigo as a problem, even if the industry's top tier of Oculus Rift cannot fundamentally solve the problem. In the virtual environment, people see their move or rotate on the monitor, and their real-world movements, and rotation is not uniform, then the brain will think this is a BUG and started feedback "error", so we got uncomfortable.

　　This phenomenon needs to first-person perspective is especially common in the sport system. Had mountain car and shooting game this completely immersed of VR experience, are is to first person perspective, frequently in virtual scene move of, so is easy appeared such Vertigo of situation, addition worth a mention of is, display refresh rate low, and user track series enough precision,, also will led to Vertigo nausea of situation, currently VR in primary stage, many equipment of technology adjustable school are not very rigorous, so will Halo.

　　After Entrim 4D headphones, ear with it, may not faint again.

Hard to create open class Online early adopters HTC Vive

Recent application PSP simulation of mobile PPSSPP is very hot, the Android version of PPSSPP is particularly popular among players. With the Simulator version update, iOS version of PPSSPP's gameplay also has reached a good level, and that its actual performance then what is it? DVF iPhone case

 Test environment

Mobile: iPhone 5@iOS 6.1.2 (requires jailbreak)

Simulator: PPSSPP iOS version v0.7-532

Games: PSP peak Kamen Rider super hero

Up to Next PSP up to VS Plus

 

First introduced the iOS version of PPSSPP installation, after you install the prerequisite is, of course, need a jailbroken iOS devices.

Add a source in Cydia: http://Cydia.angelxwind.NET/, as shown in the red box in the diagram

 

Search for PPSSPP and install

 

Because iOS device cannot be managed as easily as Android file within my computer, so we copy into the image of the game needs to other tools here to iFunBox for example, mirroring ISO games (CSO) in the//car/Mobile/documents directory, as shown in the figure

 

After the successful installation into PPSSPP

 

Menu and the Android version is the same as

 

Enter the "Settings" option settings

 

Enter the "Load" option, load the game mirrored, you can enter the game

 

Peak Kamen Rider super hero

After entering the game can see the virtual button layout and Android devices are the same, different is because of the iOS device is no back button, so where there is a small arrow on the screen, clicks can later go into the menu (as shown in the red box)

 

For the game, iPhone 5 next results are very good, frame number at more than 50

 

Up to Next up to VS Plus

So far this game simulation results are not so good, only about 20 frames under normal operating conditions

 

We can click on the little arrow to enter setup at this time, open the "Frameskip" (skipping)

 

After this after adjustment, frames up to a higher level

 

Of course, for some major 3D games such as God of war 2, simulate the number of frames is not so high now, we can to the new version of the Simulator upgrade later tried again, PPSSPP has been updated very frequently
