'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 by:Ahmed Mido This afternoon,  Microsoft released Files , a file management tool for  Windows Phone 8.1  that it had previously  promised . The app is simple, but then again so is local file management. Users of Files will be able to access content that is stored locally, as well as on SD cards. Folder creation is supported, along with normal tasks like moving and deleting content. In the Reddit AMA session during which Microsoft Windows Phone guru Joe Belfiore announced the coming Files tool, he  claimed  that it would land by the end of May. So, this thing is right on time: Windows Phone 8.1 users can snag the thing  here . Most Windows Phone users are  still on Windows Phone 8 , as Windows Phone 8.1 was first rolled out to developers. The fresh mobile operating system is in the process of a paced roll-out to the mass market. Files hasn’t yet cropped up...
