Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Pro the corporate entertainment center

Lenovo got famous for its Yoga line-up of devices, emphasizing portability, versatility and mobility in their design and features. The Lenovo Yoga line-up has many different members, ones with projectors, ones with watch hinges, flexible kickstands and new input methods with the Lenovo DoIt app suite. But the company is not stopping here as IFA is the best opportunity to show off new gadgets and new devices. As IFA Berlin 2015 comes to a close today, Lenovo can be proud to have launched yet another enterprise device that is easy to port into the non-enterprise industry as well, the Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Pro.
The Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Pro brings together features from the Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro, Lenovo Yoga 3 Pro and the rest of the company’s tablet line-up in order to create an all-in-one device suitable for enterprise, office, learning and entertainment environments. The Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Pro price is set at $500 for the United States market and a bit higher for the European market, a price which seems rather high for a tablet, in my opinion. Nonetheless, once you get a chance to look over the specs and features that the Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Pro has to offer, you will feel much more convinced to splurge than you would expect.
The company is targeting the enterprise community most with the Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Pro, as it encompasses features that cater to that niche of people. The tablet is a premium device with a metal chassis and an ergonomic design for easy one-handed use and contains a built-in projector in the spine of the device. As usual, the device comes outfitted with a flexible kickstand that lets people use the tablet in whatever position suits them best. With the massive projector that can project a 70 inch screen at a 5 meter distance, the Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Pro can be the ultimate presentation accessory, not just for the office.
When it comes to the learning environment, the Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Pro presents benefits, here too, although its price is well out of the range of schools and students generally. Nonetheless, it does show off a trend that will soon migrate into the learning environment: team work with a projector. Working together on a project is much easier if there’s a projector available, and since the Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Pro has that as well as a complete Android operating system, it’s an excellent versatile device for any type of environment. Still, it’s best for enterprise.
Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Pro features include a massive 10-inch QHD display which is as bright as daylight and has great outdoor visibility as well as viewing angles. The entertainment center aura of the device wouldn’t be complete without a surround sound front-facing speaker combo, wouldn’t it? Decidedly premium, the Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Pro can easily become a family favorite as it is easy to use and versatile. You can hang it, use it as a laptop, as a tablet, on your lap or in whatever else position you want to.
Some say tablets are soon going to be outdated and forgotten, but Lenovo demonstrates the contrary with their new device. Having a projector built-in and surround sound as well is not only convenient, but pleasurable and cost-efficient. Instead of investing in a TV and a surround system, the Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Pro can do everything at once, with the convenience of portability. You can’t beat that! Although it won’t offer the same high-res experience as a TV entertainment system would, it’s excellent for a makeshift home cinema.
The tablet is as versatile as it is powerful, seeing as Lenovo uses an Intel Atom chipset backed by 2 GB RAM. A massive 10200 mAh battery provides the juice for the tablet and with that battery, the Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Pro should be a champ at battery life. We will put that to the test as soon as we get the opportunity however. In addition to the awesome projector (which works best if in dark) the tablet also comes with a 13 MP camera, which will definitely come in handy. Android 5.1 Lollipop is on board the device, which is unfortunate from a certain point of view, as Windows 10 would have been a more suitable choice given the target audience of the device.
In any case, the Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Pro is a versatile device which blends affordability, convenience and performance into one single enterprise-oriented device. While its main orientation does involve presentations and formal occasions, the Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Pro can still function as a family entertainment system or as a simple daily driving tablet for those who still enjoy using tablets over smartphones or notebooks. Bang for buck is pretty admirable and features are unique indeed, all of this making the Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 Pro an interesting and worthwhile device.

PS5, PS4 Game Death Stranding Coming Natively to iPhone 15 Pro

PS5 and PS4 console game Death Stranding Director’s Cut is coming natively to the iPhone 15 Pro, demonstrating its power. The entirety of Kojima Productions’ seminal hiking sim, Resident Evil 4, Resident Evil Village, and Assassin’s Creed Mirage, will be available on your phone. Bonkers!
Tech giant: “Continuing Apple’s leadership in smartphone silicon, A17 Pro improves the entire chip, including Apple’s biggest GPU redesign. The new CPU is 10% faster with microarchitectural and design improvements, and the Neural Engine is 2x faster, powering iOS 17 features like autocorrect and Personal Voice.
According to the company, the pro-class GPU is 20% faster and unlocks new experiences with a 6-core design that boosts peak performance and energy efficiency. Hardware-accelerated ray tracing, 4x faster than software-based, gives iPhone 15 Pro smoother graphics and more immersive AR and gaming experiences. The iPhone 15 Pro brings console games to smartphones for the first time.
As with all cutting-edge Apple products, participation is expensive. The iPhone 15 Pro will cost £999/$999 at launch, and the Max model will cost £1,199/$1,199 for a 6.7″ screen. The most basic option only gives you 128GB, so you’ll need more if you want to play Death Stranding on the go.
However, the blurring of standalone consoles and mobile games is fascinating. The success of Genshin Impact, a full-fledged open world, has shown there’s a market for console-like mobile games. It will be interesting to see how Death Stranding performs on this latest iPhone generation.

Launched Redmi Note 12 series: 200MP camera, 210W charging for less than $400

The three phones have similar screens and processors, but they vary in a number of ways.
The Redmi Note series from Xiaomi has historically been the brand’s most well-liked smartphone line, providing excellent value in the entry-level market. The Redmi Note 12 series has now been unveiled by the firm in China.
The Redmi Note 12 Discovery Edition, Redmi Note 12 Pro, and Redmi Note 12 Pro Plus are the three phones we truly have this time. A flat 6.67-inch FHD+ 120Hz OLED screen, a Mediatek Dimensity 1080 5G processor, and a 16MP selfie camera are features shared by all three devices.
They both have a 3.5mm connector, NFC, IR blaster, and Wi-Fi 6 compatibility, among other things. In contrast, there are a few significant variances.
Redmi Note 12 Discovery Edition
The Note 12 Discovery Edition of the Redmi Note 12 has a 200MP HPX primary camera (f/1.65, OIS), making it possibly the most striking model. This camera can capture photographs with a resolution of 200MP, 50MP pixels (using four-in-one binning), or 12.5MP (using 16-in-one binning). Additionally, the phone offers a 2MP macro lens and an 8MP ultrawide camera.
The phone is notably different from its stablemates in that it supports 210W wired charging; according to Xiaomi, a full charge can be achieved in just nine minutes. Although you only get a 4,300mAh battery here, this high wattage comes at the expense of battery capacity.
Redmi Note 12 Pro Plus

Thought a 200MP smartphone with a larger battery would be cool? With the Pro Plus model, you get precisely that. The triple back camera system will have the same 200MP+8MP+2MP resolution as the Discovery Edition.
The Pro Plus variant, on the other hand, chooses a 5,000mAh battery and still blazing-fast 120W cable charging. Xiaomi claims that a full charge should be achieved in about 19 minutes.
Redmi Note 12 Pro

Have no interest in megapixels? The Redmi Note 12 Pro, which adds a 50MP IMX766 primary camera (f/1.88, OIS) in addition to the 8MP+2MP duo, fills this need. The Oppo Find X5 Pro and the Asus Zenfone 9 both feature flagship devices with 50MP sensors similar to this one. We therefore have high hopes that it will also produce acceptable image quality on the Note 12 Pro.
The Pro version additionally includes a 5,000mAh battery with 67W wired speeds. A 100% charge should be expected in a still quick 46 minutes.
Pricing and availability for the Redmi Note 12 series
The base 8GB/256GB variant of the Redmi Note 12 Discovery Edition costs 2,399 yuan (about $332), while the base 6GB/128GB model of the Redmi Note 12 Pro costs 1,699 yuan (about $235). Do you want Pro Plus? The 8GB/256GB variant thus has a starting price of 2,099 yuan (about $290).
Although Xiaomi acknowledged that these phones are currently limited to China, it advised us to “keep tuned” for international announcements. To be fair, the Chinese Redmi Note 11 series was very different from the international variants that debuted a few months later.

What Has Changed Over Time Between the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4, Galaxy Z Fold 3, and Galaxy Z Fold 2?

We let the specs speak for themselves. The Galaxy Z Fold 4 compares to the Z Fold 3 and Z Fold 2 in the following table.
The revolutionary Galaxy Z Fold 4 from Samsung was released a few months ago. The foldable has the same $1,800 starting price as the Galaxy Z Fold 3 from the previous year. Samsung will need to convince consumers to pay up for its high-end devices this year, though, as a recession and record-high inflation are both predicted. But it would be difficult to find a better option than Samsung’s book-style foldables if you’re eager to ride the leading edge of foldable phone technology (and have the money to boot).

Galaxy Z Flip 4 from Samsung Gets New Software Features
The company calls its foldable phone-tablet, the Z Fold 4, a “multitasking powerhouse.” It features a higher-resolution display, the most recent Qualcomm chipset, Android 12L out of the box, and a new 1TB option. (Scroll to the bottom for a side-by-side spec comparison for more specific information.) The business claims that in addition to providing features like new gestures and an enhanced taskbar, it has tried to make multitasking more intuitive.
The camera system of the Z Fold 4 was also enhanced by Samsung. Three cameras—a 50-megapixel primary sensor, a 12-megapixel ultrawide sensor, and a 10-megapixel telephoto lens—are located on the back of the device. Both optical and digital zoom up to 10x are supported by that telephoto lens. In addition, there are two “front cameras.” The Z Fold 4’s main display has a 10-megapixel sensor, which is the most noticeable, while the internal screen has a 4-megapixel under-display camera.
Along with the updated specifications, Samsung stressed its desire to create foldable phones that are more environmentally friendly. The Fold 4 is the first of Samsung’s folding devices to employ parts manufactured from recycled fishing nets. There are several recycled components inside the phone, including the connector cap for the display and the bracket for the side keys. Nevertheless, it’s challenging to assess the significance of these changes without tearing them apart.
In relation to sustainability, Samsung claims the Z Fold 4 uses stronger materials. An “optimal layer structure,” which provides better damage prevention, is now used for its main cover. The typical aluminum frames and Gorilla Glass Victus on the cover and back support everything mentioned above.
The lack of dust resistance on the Z Fold 4 is still a drawback of its foldable nature. It still has the IPX8 classification from the previous year, meaning it can be immersed for up to 30 minutes in freshwater up to 1.5 meters deep. The Galaxy S22 line of smartphones, in contrast, features IP68 water- and dust-resistance, which means the devices can tolerate sand, grime, and dust. They can also be submerged for up to 30 minutes at a depth of 1.5 meters.
The S Pen storage slot is still missing, but Samsung has introduced a cover with a S Pen holder that is available for purchase separately. Check out the specs table below from CNET for more details on how Samsung’s cutting-edge Z Fold series has changed over time.
