Hard to create open class Online early adopters HTC Vive

Distance Samsung Galaxy S7/S7 Edge released has has a time has, Russia media early in has split results Galaxy S7d of Exynos 8890 version, recently foreign famous split machine website iFixit finally on Galaxy S7 for has detailed split solutions, this split solutions of is mycophenolate mofetil Dragon 820 version, we on to see 820 version of Galaxy S7 and Exynos 8890 version in internal circuit design Shang has what different of at.

We look at Xiao long version 820 Galaxy S7 configuration details:

5.1-inch Super AMOLED display, 2560x1440 resolution (576 PPI) Paul Frank iPhone 6 plus cases

Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 processor, GPU to Adreno 530,4 GB RAM

After 12 million pixel camera, dual-pixel autofocus, 4K video, 5 million pixels front camera

32GB/64 GB internal storage, support for microSD/TF card expansion (up to 200 GB)

IP68 waterproof rating

Android 6.0.1 cotton candy

The overall appearance, Galaxy Galaxy S6 and S7 are similar, both with a 5.1-inch screen, which is very similar in body size, mobile front metal rings for the Home key the only obvious difference between colors, Galaxy S7 for dark color scheme, seemed very low-key.

Dorsal larger differences, while styling remained similar, but distinct, beginning with S7 have similar Note5 double curved glass on both sides of the fuselage, S6 on the shake to the next level, followed by S7 camera raised decreased only slightly raised than the fuselage, camera volume control quite well.

Close-up of the receiver and the sensor. Handset design is slightly different with the S6, sensor, front-facing camera and the LED light and S6 are almost identical. We can clearly see in Figure 2.5D the edges of the glass arc than S6 stereo and more rounded.

Galaxy S7 does not use the popular USB Type-C interface, but follows the previous Micro-USB interface. Although the USB Type-C is the trend, but there's still more generic Micro-USB interface.

Random us Galaxy S7 comes with a USB adapter, guaranteed regardless of the wire you use, can be used normally.

Dismantling order Galaxy S7 and S6 is similar, all started from the back breaking, and heated to soften the S7 back glass glue, so that we can remove.

With suction cup and set aside to cover slow separation because S7 joins IP68 waterproof, so more than glue S6, slightly higher difficulty demolition.

Galaxy S7 rear door and no rubber seal, instead of using glue + adhesives bonded to waterproof IP68 level.

S6 position with the rear cover strip is white, while the S7 replace black plastic may be changed in order to waterproof capacity.

Remove lower rear cover cannot yet see the circuit board, remove the retaining plate on the motherboard, trim by the cross screws, can be more easily removed.

Remove top trim, there could be for S7 antenna, through the contacts connected to the Board.

NFC coils and coil of wireless charging.

Speaker parts. This part of the dismantling of more difficult than ever, it's hard to replace the battery, this also affects the maintenance of S7 final score.

That is why we removed the antenna coil and signal.

The modules all through the spring contacts connected to the Board, replaced quite easily.

Battery use double sided tape to stick on the box, can be removed with a plectrum.

S6 battery only 2550mAh, so battery life is weak, Samsung S7 up to 3000mAh battery, battery life has improved tremendously.

Next, we continued to remove the motherboard, unplug the cable on the front camera can be removed, front-facing camera to 5 million pixels, Aperture f/1.7.

After the front-facing camera moves, you can separate the motherboard out. And Samsung's previous design similar to the boards there is a panel at the bottom.

Next we separated rear camera, rear-facing camera via a ribbon cable connected to the motherboard.

16 million different megapixel rear camera with the S6, and Galaxy S7 12 million pixels camera, using dual-pixel autofocus technology, focus speed S6 went further.

The camera uses a Sony IMX260 sensor provides, 1.4 microns per pixel area, compared with 16 million pixel sensor S6, IMX260 can reduce noise and improve image quality. The lens can see the sensor after separation, S6 pixels has decreased, but the camera has light and ultra low light image quality of the environment.

Here we take a look at S7 chip on the motherboard. Motherboard front:

Red: SK Hynix H9KNNNCTUMU-BRNMH memory below the 4 GB LPDDR4 SDRAM run covered with Qualcomm MSM8996 Snapdragon processor 820

Orange: Samsung KLUBG4G1CE 32 GB UFS 2.0 Flash memory chip

Yellow: Anwar AFEM-9040 multi-band multi-mode RF chip

Green: Murata FAJ15 front-end module

Light blue: Qorvo QM78064 high band RF module

Dark blue: Qualcomm WCD9335 Audio Codec chip (millet 5 also used this chip we guess using mycophenolate mofetil 820 processor models may be using this WCD9335 Audio Codec chip, suspected for Qualcomm's packed programme. ）

Purple: Qorvo QM63001A diversity receiver module

Opposite the motherboard:

Red: Murata KM5D18098 Wi-Fi module

Orange: NXP NFC 67T05 controller

Yellow: IDT P9221 wireless power receiver

Green: STMicroelectronics LSM6DS3 6 axis IMU (3-axis accelerometer +3-axis gyroscope)

Light blue: Qualcomm PM8996 PMIC

Dark blue: Qualcomm QFE3100 Envelope Tracker (package tracking module)

Purple: Qualcomm WTR4905 + WTR3925 RF transceiver

Analysis of the audio chip:

Xiao long 820 Galaxy S7 using high pass its own version of the WCD9335 Audio Codec chip, Exynos 8890 version used the model for Lucky CS47L91 Codec audio chip, the chip may be from Cirrus Logic company. Lucky CS47L91 is a Codec audio chip, working with Cirrus Logic from the model may be Samsung's products. Relative to the General programme in the sound quality of the Codec chip for mobile phones will be significantly improved, a similar situation has iPhone 6s 338S1285 (Cirrus Logic company) and Nubia Z7 AK4961. But Codec independent Dac+ relative to the op-amp combination there is a significant difference between, and Samsung on the Exynos version of the flagship phones often use Codec chips.                                                      Qualcomm WCD9335 version using his Codec chip, according to past experience, the high sound quality is likely to be worse than the Exynos version.

Here we continue dismantling remove the waterproof headphone jack cable can be removed.

Headphone Jack there is rubber on the secret circle, should be designed for IP68 waterproof.

Noise microphone and the receiver is waterproof and has a lot of rubber seal ring capability nearby.

We try to separate the bottom of the SubPanel, but found pairs of plates on the part of the cable extends in the opposite box, being bonded to the screen box.

We'll screen heating the glue softens, then use the dial to OLED screen is removed.

After the separation of the screen, you can press the cable is removed, and the Deputy was removed.

Deputy picture. Above the main microphone, USB interface and touch keys.

Next to tube separated from the box.

S7 has very thin heat pipe.

We demonstrate the pipe corresponds to the Board position. Pipe covered with several major chip running memory +SoC, memory chips, and contains some of hot chip, tube position is very reasonable.

Last is Galaxy S7 of family, we can see circuit part design of quite compact, Board, and Deputy Board, and Wireless charging coil and antenna, are is module of design, in must degree Shang easy maintenance, but iFixit for Galaxy S7 of maintenance score also only 3 points (full marks for 10 points), visible in joined IP68 level waterproof Hou, on machine maintenance difficult easy degrees of effect also is compared big of.

Millet Note Hat Edition

Millet Note Hat indeed stronger than other phones with the same processor performance, as to whether the legend of "Xiao long version V2.1 810" played a role, we have no idea, but there is no doubt that it does have a lot of advantages in kernel optimization. Millet Note Hat voices to remain consistent and Standard Edition, but more on the transient performance of sound excellent. In addition, the hat to dive at low frequencies also will feel in place, also has some strengthening of sound field.

Smart Home era why choice aspect ratio

"Introduction" in the smart home market, the horizontal is typically represented by "big platforms + various peripheral products." And is different from landscape companies a bloody competition, vertical's representative did not much, typical pattern is to focus on a category. In my opinion, should choose a vertical strategy: smart home era cannot be opportunistic, blind horizontal development, of each category are light, short speed assault, will give the fatal blow to the business.

AER·Lisi describes in detail in his book the war of the four strategies: defensive and offensive warfare, flanking warfare and guerrilla warfare. The book to specific business, for example, in-depth analysis of what the company's best strategy is used. Summary of each strategy, nature is on the vertical and horizontal layout, in recent months, I've been thinking about a question is how smart home entrepreneur in the field of aspect ratio choices.

Believes like war tablets of people are can found war in the has two a most common of two a scene: first is big surrounded, through horizontal of full layout, on a war regional for full of forces configuration, formed surround, eventually will target is not left of swallow Xia; second is conquer, concentrated all power Yu is for breakthrough, special combat most typical, once success on quickly to depth into, then again draws fast formed encirclement, eroded off target. Cross of the former, the latter known as vertical.

In the smart home market, the horizontal is typically represented by "big platforms + various peripheral products." Michael Kors

This pattern is better understood, doing a lot of company:

Millet said millet router and millet as the center of the box to create smart home ecosystem, claiming to develop intelligent hardware startups around 100 products. Haier U+ smart home platform also has roots in many years, there are more than more than 40 manufacturers, in nearly 50 categories. Of course Apple call of the HomeKit, also wants to build an intelligent hardware ecosystem, Google also acquired early Nest layout of smart home platform.

Unlike horizontal companies bloody competition, vertical's representative did not much, typical pattern is to focus on a category.

This strategy, companies need a category as the core, and constantly enhance its functionality, long-term technology accumulation and precipitation insists, or to enhance your product experience and rich products. Now, the typical IKEA should be counted as such, it may have a relationship with their late start. IKEA's intention is to light as the core of the current show, combining their traditional household brands in the field of accumulation as well as breakthroughs in wireless charging, can form a breakthrough in smart home market of special forces.

Hardly aspect which is better or worse, the most fundamental, is the need for companies to make strategic decisions according to their own circumstances.

Vertical advantage is clear, we can see from the phone's success:

First, most fans can accumulate. Millet with MIUI iterative optimization solves cell phone users had a lot of trouble, and captured the hearts of many users;

Second, the easier to make the ultimate product. The reason is very simple, a good team together in a product, the goal is often to clear, all the power of punches in a point, such products are often easy to do more than the experience of similar products, Apple and millet proved the point;

Third, you can construct strong technical barrier. Millet in the mobile UI form barriers overnight non-competitors can catch up, millet, of course don't have the choice to develop in depth, also leads the millet has been owned by Huawei mobile phone competitors of the underlying patents and expediency. If the millet to continue in collaboration using open source or proprietary hardware power, has the potential to truly mobile phone market first, of course, this is just. What kind of company is best in this strategy? With key technology breakthroughs of the most suitable and most conditions, but may not be able to do it. I think smart home entrepreneurs should have priority in choosing this strategy, best entrepreneurial teams tend to have "1+3" layout--leader of talent and technology, marketing, and supply chain. Through technical roots, form the basis of product advantages, and user experience and work together to build the core competitiveness of the supply chain, continued to advance in depth, using technology, and user reputation gradually encircled.

Landscape benefits are of course very tempting, so most companies have opted for this strategy.

First, the rich product easy to form a chain effect, suitable for creating complete solutions to give users a consistent experience; Michael Kors Case for iPad

Secondly, when the market enters mature, fast layout to the market as a whole, covering all users;

Finally, with a strong voice, especially in the standard layout, the threshold setting can be a powerful barrier.

It is clear, with strong capital companies adopt this strategy, in fact this, however does not mean that it will be successful. Intelligent Home field, many of the current system, protocol there are many, each are trying to build ecosystem, but actually did not make users feel imagined experience. Even on the phone was a big success of millet, also failed to move the market for the time being, even we can very clearly says millet router attempts to build smart home entrance designs without success.

From my observation, the smart home entrepreneurs choose horizontal policies, the majority of this was unexpected. Maybe it's smart home outlet theory and results of multiple effects such as entrance, platform theory, so entrepreneurs are looking at the future, continuous horizontal layout, but there are a lot of entrepreneurs eventually fell on the road and can't wait for good times. Author team on the strategic decisions must also consider the issue.

Early product is done in a simple, and subsequent planning is the key issues before us. Am sure many entrepreneurs are thinking about this problem. Judging from the author's experiences and observations in the field, smart home entrepreneurs should select a vertical strategy.

Next to analysis under the lights, for example:

Author's strategy team to gauge the market's judgment when the lights are first and most need to be intelligent in the family home, and also meets the requirements of large market space. A what kind of light is intelligence times families most in need of it? Single-from the user's point of view is mainly convenient. From a higher level but clients do not perceive clear demands, thermal, light-fitness, functional extension is very attractive, and technological breakthroughs.

LED heat sink and LED lamp itself challenge is heat, coupled with intelligent control module this problem becomes more apparent, cooling and consumption of a key, so good not only more energy-efficient heat dissipation and longer service life of the lamp. Li Ka-shing has invested in a Nano-business company, whose product is Nanoleaf, because it can save them a shell, without cooling. Although this may not be accepted by ordinary users, but it is a good idea, now no other LED lamps on the market break through the traditional shape. In addition, Graphene bulb appearance, also gave a big imagination for heat and power.

Light-fitness. Effect of light color and brightness for the people is clear, such as low-light environment light can cause eye damage, such as a yellow light can stimulate the appetite, which can be attributed to the light on the suitability. But a troubling problem is that generally we are unaware or unwilling to do such a regulation. Indeed, different scenarios will go to a different light, it is too hard. LED lamps with dynamic light like Ketra also able to solve the problem, if over time, sun exposure, scene, such as automatic control, imperceptible to the user's clock brings improvement, productivity, loss of appetite and other users will scream.

Feature extension. Light is one of the most common necessities, using the highest frequency. At a place of business, light already has many extensions, such as multicolored lights with the music of Carnival. However, in families, and this value is far from tapped. As Steve mentioned, is not what users want, but users do not know. But the good news is that more and more such products already on the market was born, lamp with sound function, never forget the feeling of suspension lamps, these products are rich well lights feature extension, allowing users to enjoy the fun of light.

In the field of intelligent home, from the lights, will no doubt take the vertical strategy. Of course not to say be sure to select the light, entrepreneurs can judge for himself, the author is just a based on their own choice of field, and industry. No matter what the intelligent products, for now, vertical strategy is certain. To achieve the ultimate product, continue to concentrate in depth, forming a strong technology barriers or experience, so as to allow users to actually use our products, to break through the gate of smart home. Smart Home era cannot be opportunistic, blind horizontal development, of every category are light, short speed assault, will deal a fatal blow to entrepreneurship.

Earth a Primer not game s book is not a good application

Introduction to Earth Science (Earth:A Primer) is an educational application, strictly speaking is not a game, but a textbook of instinctive activity. In the development team's words, "this is a textbook prepared for those who love to play." It contains a lot of simulator of geology, players can "play" the principles of how the Earth works. Givenchy iPhone 5 Case

This style of Neil Ardley and David Macaulay's books the secret of the things running of Wikipedia (The Way Things Work). The book vividly explains and simulated lava, wind, temperature, water, how to shape our planet, and even allows readers to play the role of God, through a number of simulators were changed for thousands of years by readers at your fingertips crushing mountains geology.

The application designed by sieges and lion Chaim Gingold, "game" picture in a strong sense of reality, can make you aware of reality and fantasy. As well as a living textbook, because it allows you to learn the knowledge of geology, but also interactive.

Introduction to Earth Science began in the famous master of simulation games Will Wright. In 2002, Wright looking for some inspiration for new games. When he saw the Charles and Ray Eames's classic short of the 10-th (Powers of 10), eyes glowing. If you can imitate real-life in the game, from simulations of soft soil in the original the original cell, and then layer extends to the entire Galaxy, cool no?

Wright called it game ideas spores (Spore), and happens to Gingold 02 year game developers Conference heard Wright talk about this game. So, as Gingold asked Wright if he needs of the Georgia Institute of technology doctoral student interns, and Wright team to Gingold was a challenge: can he used 10 variables to simulate any civilization of the universe? Thus, Gingold walked into the library and check out books. Finally, he replies, ten civilizations to create variables, from the cultural identification to the biological time.

Gingold's answer to deep impact on Wright, and he spent six years in Wright's side, first-year interns, the rest of the Maxis Studio work, Spore project is mainly responsible for series of tools to create. He built the tools, some of which are at the end of the game before it can be a glimpse of the face such as the creature creator, there are like 10 times that style of architecture, see.

In Spore, released the previous year, Gingold left Maxis Studio, because he realized he has done things wrong. After the listing of the spores, and received acclaim also received ridicule, in General, not very successful. Critics said that this game is more like a collection of emulators, not games! Gingold said of the spore team back in 2004, they were aware of the problem. He said:

The game (spore) is a huge universe, but there is no path to mastery of the game.

Although Gingold left Maxis, but still like to create various simulators, so over the next couple of years, he created a variety of analog systems. Is a pity, the Simulator does not allow players to experience tour game feeling only distance cannot be profaned. Sometime in 2011, he suddenly, understands that he should not take the time to create these, but should write a "book". He said the vastness of the universe have a magical power to attract him, he charmed. He wanted to share this amazing feeling. Therefore, he began to ' book '.

In this book in an introduction to the Earth, combining the like Will Wright, Charles Eames and Ray Eames masters of life value concept, as well as the author of the awe and wonder of the universe. He likes to use logic to find the natural model of the universe, eventually find their own happiness in love. He said:

A certain period of time in my life for a game designed to simulate, the experience made me more understand how to ' write ' an interactive ' book '. One day, when I wrote my ' book ' share on Facebook, when Miss Pickles, my first grade teacher told me that she really liked this book, I took the book back to teaching moments. I hope that all people will like this ' book ', as my teacher.

Introduction to Earth science it will be some time this month to launch iPad version requires more than iOS 7 systems support.

I think that this ' book ' author Chaim Gingold's conscience on behalf of the industry. If there are more and more books are alive, and that learning is like playing games, mean?

Canada scientists found that the drug in the treatment of depression

　　Wei Feng network, February 18, about depression, may not be what most people think and their relationships, or even if that would not cause too much impact. But in fact, this disease affects people far beyond your imagination, this is a spiritual, and far more frightening than many physical diseases. When a well-known host was so ill and cause for concern, Mr Zhao is still having their own Gala sketch poking fun at it, I believe that many people have the impression.

　　In the near future, Canada University of Montreal researcher announced that they have found adjusting neural mechanisms in the development of depression, this disease can be treated by drugs, combined with psychological treatment, or patients with depression will be able to return to a normal pace of life.

　　Simply put: in area of norepinephrine in the brain cells are often called "blue dot", the locus coeruleus. Noradrenaline neurotransmitter molecules interact with each other's help, it can serve to regulate emotions or alleviate the effects of mood disorders. Scientists have shown that this method can be used to treat depression.

　　At present, scientists have confirmed in some animals, noradrenaline in the brain does not produce the animals, they can have a feeling of depression in chronic pressure gradually. And this is completely reversible, which means that in the case of increased norepinephrine, tendency to depression are reduced, in combination with psychotherapy to treat this disease at this time.

　　Meanwhile, scientists said the study from a scientific point of view explains why some people under stress can produce depression, while the impact on some good people will be relatively low. But on the whole, in the context of modern social lives and complex, depressed people are becoming more and more. Therefore, this research is very interesting. MIU MIU iPhone 5 Case

Russia the latest system can simultaneously control 10 combat drone

　　Wei Feng network on February 15, when as early as decades ago, the former Soviet Union is perhaps unique in the world and the United States first positive country. Later, the Soviet Union disintegrated, but its main successor Russia remains more or less have this ability. Later, although this ability is gradually weakening due to various reasons, on the use of some advanced equipment, however, Russia is not entirely at a disadvantage. GUCCI iPhone 6 plus GUCCI iPhone 6+

　　Most recently, Russia consolidated instrument manufacturing company (UIMC) spokesman Khozin said: radio Engineering Corporation Vega recently showed off a modern unmanned aircraft control systems. The system compared with previous similar systems, the biggest difference is that it can simultaneously control up to 10 unmanned aerial or terrestrial robots! This is a very horrible, because it would mean the drones and ground robots or the scale will thus form a certain battle.

　　It is reported that the technology on February 10 at Patriot Park in Moscow State "Russia military automation robotics exhibition" KamAZ-43118 on display at the control system built on the basis of the system console with drones and robots, and the operator is equipped with 5 slots for automated work. With this high-performance computer equipment can simultaneously control 10 drones and ground robots. Deployed throughout the console only take less than 15 minutes of time.

　　This system will enable the emergence of drones and robots used in the military field reached a new level, and this system will exist what are the issues or risks, still exploring it.
