OnePlus 2 battery life test

Posted on by

OnePlus 2, flagship killer or not, turned out one very interesting high-end smartphone with massive interest online. OnePlus indeed succeeded into hyping the fans and it seems the company delivered for the most part.

Whether the choice of Snapdragon 810 was the right one, or not, is a question with no simple answer. The performance is more than adequate and overheating issues are not possible, as the chip has been tweaked. But what about the battery life then? Let’s find out.

The day we published our review our OnePlus 2 received an OTA update, which improved on the stability and hopefully the battery performance. We updated our unit and did the tests again. The OnePlus 2 outed similar results on the media, web and call tests, but performance a notch better when left on standby.

First things first though. The OnePlus 2 is an A student when it comes to 3G talks. The phone lasted north of 30 hours, when hooked on a 3G call, which is nothing short of impressive.

Week 36 in review: IFA 2015, Sony Z5 series and Nexus rumors

Posted on by

Another week went by and it was definitely dominated by IFA. The annual Berlin convention might have shrunk some this year after Samsung decided to move its Note5 launch ahead of schedule, but the venue still offered quite a few exciting announcements.

First and foremost on the list is Sony, which in keeping with tradition introduced its latest line of mobile phones. It is the Z5 series and it is tasked with the hard mission of recovering fan trust after the whole Xperia Z3+, Z3v, Z4 fiasco. That is no easy task, but Sony is shooting big with a total of three new flagship phones – the Z5, Z5 Compact and last, but definitely not least – the Z5 Premium, which is officially equipped with a record-setting 4K display. The lineup also brings a brand new 23MP camera, which we actually discovered to be around 25MP and is the first such update since the Z1.

You can check our initial hands-on impressions of the Sony lineup in the review section, but IFA had a few other announcements to offer as well. Huawei, for instance outed a new flagship device and finally launched sales on its eagerly-anticipated Huawei Watch. Dubbed the Mate S, the phone is a truly impressive offer with a large and vibrant display, beautiful metal body and advanced features such as a fingerprint scanner and a Force Touch display.

Acer was also quite busy and introduced quite a few new devices at the venue. These include more trivial offers such as the Z630, Z530 and Z330. There were also a few Windows 10 offers such as the M330 and M230. Other more interesting offers include a powerful Windows 10 phone dubbed the Jade Primo, which was used to showcase Microsoft Continuum on stage. Also the gaming-centered Predator 6 with an aggressive body and the beastly ten-core MediaTek Helio X20 inside.

Lenovo was also quite active with announcement. The Vibe P1 and P1m were showcased, both spouting massive battery packs. Also the Vibe S1 with an impressive dual camera setup on the front for easy refocusing and effect like bokeh.

Amidst all the IFA commotion a few rumors did manage to slip through, like more info on the new Nexus by LG, as well as the one by Huawei, which will allegedly both be announced come September 29. A new Moto X model might also be coming our way soon, dubbed the X Force. Other highlights include the LG G4 Pro/Note, also the Xiaomi Mi 4c.

Construye una ciudad en medio de un apocalipsis zombi en Rebuild 3: Gangs of Deadsville

Posted on by

Pinche aquí para ver el vídeo

En un fin de semana que parece que tenemos a los zombis como reales protagonistas para los videojuegos que lanzamos desde esta página, tenemos a otro pero que mezcla varios factores, uno la construcción de una ciudad con todo lo que conlleva a lo Clash of Clans pero de otra manera, y lo que serían esos caminantes horrendos que estarían asolando esa ciudad que queremos construir.

Por esto mismo estamos ante Rebuild 3: Gangs of Deadsville, que llega como la siguiente apuesta después dos primeras partes que nos llevaban a recoger a los supervivientes en un apocalipsis zombi para así protegerlos y haceros más fuertes en esa fortificación que llamamos como ciudad. Por lo que si os gustan los juegos de construir, tipo el mencionado en el primer párrafo, y los Sim City, añadimos los zombis y ya tenemos un buen juego para pasarlo bien durante horas. Y contad con que es un videojuego de Northway Games, creador de algunos únicos como Inredipede y Deep Under the Sky.

Construyes pero sin micropagos

He hecho una referencia clara a Clash of Clans para construir tu base, pero en Rebuild 3, al no existir el modelo freemium y esos micropagos, tendremos todo el contenido sin pagos extras, digamos que podremos construir nuestra base cetrándonos en esto mismo sin tener que esperar semanas y semanas.

Por lo que estamos ante un juego que tiene una buena solidez, aparte de contar con la experiencia recibida de las anteriores ediciones. Rebuild es más sobre la gestión de los pocos recursos que existen en esa tierra devastada por el apocalipsis, por lo que tendremos que saber administrar los supervivientes que vayamos encontrando.

Rebuild 3

Aquí seguramente nos recuerda más a Fallout Shelter, donde una de las premisas es saber colocar bien a los que vamos encontrando para asignarlos a ciertos puestos relacionados con sus habilidades.

Eventos como epidemia o ataques de zombies probarán la infraestructura de vuestra ciudad, lo que significará que tendréis que mejorar los puntos débiles para ir soportando de mejor manera cada uno de los envites a los que os enfrentaréis.

Más de 30 misiones para un mundo abierto

Ahora entrará a formar parte de todo este gameplay lo que son 30 misiones de campaña y ese mundo abierto que se genera aleatoriamente. Ya expliqué ayer lo que otorga esa generación aleatoria para alargar la extensión de vida de este juego así que no entraré más en detalles.

Rebuild 3

Aparte de esto mismo, accederemos a todo tipo de edificios, equipo y opciones de investigación que añaden más variedad a la mecánica de juego. Sumamos los elementos estratégicos como son conocer otras faciones o lo que es la partida en tiempo real o por turnos, y pasaremos ante toda la chicha de este videojuego. Diferentes bandas controlarán parte del territorio por lo que la diversión se extenderá a una buena cantidad de tiempo.

Añadimos ahora unos buenos gráficos estilo pixel aunque más definido y entraremos a un estilo retro que tanto nos gusta como en juegos como este. Por lo que la realización técnica es estupenda en todos los sentidos y nada que podamos reprochar. Eso sí, por 4,92€ os espera con todo su contenido mediante un único pago.

Opinión del editor

Pros

  • Un único pago
  • Un muy buen juego en términos generales
  • Variedad de cosas por hacer

Contras

  • Otro de zombis
