'Samsung Goes For Another Round In The Wearables Ring With The Gear 2"

Quoting from the site techcrunch Posted by:Dr Ahmed.M.Shaban Basics sAMOLED display 720p still and video camera Replaceable straps MSRP: $299.99 Product info page Pros Great health features Nice interface Cons Battery life is around three days Camera is a bit spurious If I’ve noticed any sort of trend in the wearables space it’s that watches now look like watches. Runners will remember early Garmin GPS watches that looked like bulbous alien egg sacs on your wrists while even the  Omate  wrist computer still looks like an unlanced polyp. But almost everyone else –  Pebble , Basis, and the like – have created devices that are one step above the thinness and usability of an old Casio calculator watch. And that’s a compliment. Now, I dare say, Samsung has upped the game. The  Samsung Gear 2  is the company’s latest smart watch and it works with a number of Galaxy smartphones. It is a Jack-of-all-trades and features a bright AMOLED ...

Quoting from the site techcrunch Posted by:Dr Ahmed.M.Shaban One thing that had been rumored for inclusion in iOS 8 that wasn’t announced on stage was a new trick for the iPad that would let it run two apps side-by-side concurrently. The feature was  first reported by Mark Gurman  at 9to5Mac as one in a series of articles revealing upcoming features of the then-secret beta, and claimed that you’d be able to not only run two apps next to each other, but also move data from one to the other. It wasn’t unveiled, but developer Steve Troughton-Smith has uncovered code that suggest it was at least in development. Steve T-S   @ stroughtonsmith Follow So… just in case there was any doubt left… iOS 8’s SpringBoard has code to run two apps side-by-side. 1/4 size, 1/2 size, or 3/4 size The code found by Troughton-Smith allows two apps to run side-by-side in different proportions, taking up a quarter of the screen vs. three-quarters for the other active app, o...
