LG announces LG 360 Cam

LG has just unveiled its first 360 VR headset and it just made sense to have a 360 camera as a companion accessory, right? So, the LG’s take is the LG 360 Cam – a very compact spherical camera with dual wide-angle 13MP snappers.

The camera supports 2K video recording, and its content can be easily uploaded to YouTube 360. Then you can view it with your LG 360 VR, or any other Cardboard compatible gadget.

LG unveils a compact LG 360 VR headset

The LG G5 announcement gave us more than the G5. The company introduced a new series of smart accessories including additional G5-compatible modules like the LG Cam Plus and LG Hi-Fi Plus.

In addition to those, you can treat yourself with some of the standalone gadgets. The first one to grab our attention was the LG 360 VR – an HMD (head-mounted display) headset. It requires connection to an external device to work (a smartphone or a slate) and looks like a very compact thing to wear on your head.

This Is The LG G5: Smaller Battery, Smaller Screen, Metal Body, VR And Drone Accessories

The LG G5 is LG simultaneously conforming to industry conventions while continuing its out-the-box approach.  It’s got a metal unibody, just like every smartphone out there. LG also moved the volume buttons back to the phone’s side after placing them in the back for the G2, G3 and G4. But it’s also got a unique modular design that lets users pull out the phone’s bottom to not only change batteries, but plug in bunch of other accessories as well.

Three Factors For ‘Bimodal’ IT: Automation, Automation And Automation

The problem with the information technology industry is that we are fond of doing the same thing that we used to do, but giving an action a new name and telling everyone that a so-called paradigm shift has happened. Take DevOps, take big data analytics or even take cloud computing… we’ve kind of been here before with a lot of these concepts, processes and methodologies. So could ‘bimodal IT’ be genuinely new… and what makes it happen?

Samsung Galaxy S7 edge retail box has most specs written on it

It’s the last few hours before Samsung unveils the S7 family, so here are some more leaks to help pass the time. The Samsung Galaxy S7 edge retail box has been photographed and, as usual, it features a quick rundown of the most important specs.

The screen will be a 5.5″ Super AMOLED with QHD resolution (that’s 1,440 x 2,560px). The phone will be powered by an octa-core processor with 4GB of RAM and 32GB storage.

The Galaxy S7 edge camera will be a “Dual Pixel” 12MP shooter. Canon has “Dual Pixel” sensors, which offers super quick, super accurate focus because 80% of the viewfinder area is used to focus instead of a fixed number of focus points. Anyway, there’s a 5MP selfie camera too.

The IP68 water and dust resistance are confirmed (again, no word on microSD, but it’s pretty certain at this point). There’s wireless charging and KNOX too.

We’ve seen Photoshopped retail boxes before, so don’t take these specs as gospel. Still, a million leaks can’t be wrong.
