Apple iPhone 6 rumors with 10 MP F/1.8 camera Feature

Apple iPhone 6 rumors with 10 MP F/1.8 camera Feature

It's still pretty early to be talking about the next generation of Apple iPhone, but the latest report from a Chinese website suggests that the iPhone 5s successor will support an enhanced camera and improved filters over the current model.
 
apple-iphone-6-with-10mp-camera-featureup


Citing the supply chain sources, the report claims that the upcoming iPhone will feature a 10 megapixel rear camera with an aperture of f/1.8. Furthermore, the new camera is said to be accompanied with new and improved filters, which is lighter and thinner than previously used IR filters.

The lighter filters will help capture quality images as it minimizes the color shift of CMOS sensors. The rumored brighter f/1.8 aperture will boost low-light performance and it allow you to do images with shallow depth of field and blur the background while keeping sharp focus on the closer subjects.

Apple is also working on a new image stabilization mechanism, according to a recent patent filling. It looks like the company is working very hard to regain some of ground it lost in the camera department with the next iPhone.
Google Shows Off Gaming Potential Of Glass With Five Simple Games (Google Glass Games)

Google Shows Off Gaming Potential Of Glass With Five Simple Games (Google Glass Games)

Google released five simple games for Glass, the company’s buzz-worthy wearable computing device.
In a post on the Glass Developers blog, a spokesperson wrote, “We hacked together five simple games that experiment with the unique features of Glass and demonstrate some of the possibilities for gaming.”
With TennisBalanceClay ShooterMatcher, and Shape Splitter, Google is making a play for the profitable mobile game market, one that regularly outpaces both traditional gaming revenue as well as other forms of media.
Google Glass has accelerometers and gyroscopes in it, making the head-controlled Tennis and Balance–you need to keep a stack of books from falling off a cartoon character’s head–fairly obvious.Clay Shooter takes a cue from skeet shooting, but in this game, your voice is your trigger. Shape Shifter lets players slice their hands through Glass-displayed objects like Fruit Ninja, and Matcher asks players to match shapes within a grid, similar to something like Bejeweled or Puzzles and Dragons.
Basic though they may be, this move by the Google Glass development team signals an early interest in gaming apps, something that Apple never quite supported early on.

best-google-glass-games-featureup

It’s only a matter of time before we start to see gaming take over wearable computing devices like Glass, though the safety issues are important to pay attention to, as well.
“We intentionally wanted games that are quick to get into when you have a few, free minutes,” says the blog post, “and just as easy to get out of when you want to turn your attention back to reality.”
Developers wanting to make games for Google Glass are encouraged to the Glass Development Kit(GDK) for documentation and coding tools.
What’s new On My Android: February 2014

What’s new On My Android: February 2014

best android apps feb 2014

I spend most of my day writing about Android, so I’m always being asked by friends, family, and readers what apps and games I recommend. With that in mind, and to save myself from repeating it over and over again, I thought I’d put together a monthly roundup of the apps I’m using.
These won’t necessarily be brand new apps, but they will be apps I’ve recently discovered that you may not have stumbled across yet. February’s list includes an awesome email client called CloudMagic, a hugely frustrating yet immensely fun game, a third-party KitKat launcher, and more.

CloudMagic — Free

cloud magic android
CloudMagic is by far my favorite third-party email client. With support for Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo! Mail, iCloud, Microsoft Exchange, AOL, and many more, it’s ideal for those with multiple mail accounts from different providers.
CloudMagic sports a fantastic design, and it boasts a ton of useful features, including lightning fast search, a unified inbox, reminders, push notifications, a passcode lock, and threaded conversation views. And best of all, it’s completely free.

Agent — Free

agent android

I discovered Agent just a week ago, and I can’t believe I knew nothing about it until then. Agent is like having “five apps in one,” it claims, each of which has a special function that makes your Android smartphone more efficient, more useful, and more powerful. Here’s what they do:
  • Battery Agent helps you get the most out of your battery in between charges by turning off Bluetooth when it’s not being used, lowering the brightness of your display, and pausing background autosync for certain apps. It starts up automatically when your battery reaches a certain percentage (which you choose), then deactivates automatically when your battery level rises again.
  • Drive Agent is triggered automatically by Bluetooth and motion sensing, when detects when you’re in the car. It then automatically silences your phone, auto-responds to callers and incoming texts to let them know you’re driving, and reads your messages aloud.
  • Parking Agent remembers where you parked your car as soon as you stop, so you’ll never forget where you left it.
  • Meeting Agent knows when you’re in a meeting based on your calendar events and automatically silences your phone. It reads local and shared calendars, and you can specify which days you’re working or tell it to activate only for “busy” events.
  • Sleep Agent silences your phone at night so that you’re not disturbed in your sleep. Tell it what time you go to bed and it’ll do the rest. You can even specify which contacts are allowed to wake you up, and it will allow those ones to make a noise.
Get Agent today and you’ll wonder how you lived without it for so long.

Duolingo — Free

duolingo android

I’m going to be heading back to Barcelona for Mobile World Congress later this month, so I recently decided it was time to learn some Spanish. (I’ve actually been promising to do it for years.) I’d heard great things about Duolingo, so I decided to check it out, and I couldn’t be more impressed.
I’m three weeks into my training and I’ve already learned substantially more than I thought I would by now. I still have a long way to go, of course, but Duolingo makes the whole process super simple. It’s quite incredible that you don’t have to pay a penny to use this app.
I highly recommend it if you need to learn a new language. Se ha hecho maravillas para mí.

Flappy Bird — Free

flappy bird android
Vj wrote about Flappy Bird, the super simple yet hugely frustrating game from .GEARS, earlier this week. I’ve been addicted to it since I downloaded it, and somehow my Nexus 5 is still in one piece. I’m sure you’ve already heard about this one by now; everyone’s been talking about it recently.
The aim of the game is simple: you must fly a bird between a series of Super Mario-style pipes, and you earn a point for each one you pass without crashing. But you have to control every flap of the bird’s wings by tapping the screen — if you don’t tap, it simply plummets to the ground.
It sounds easy, but it really isn’t — it’s incredible frustrating. But at the same time, it’s also a lot of fun.

KitKat Launcher+ — Free

kitkat launcher android
KitKat Launcher+ is like a supercharged version of the stock launcher from Android 4.4 KitKat. It allows you to make simple changes that Google doesn’t let you make, without entirely changing the experience altogether. You can use it to remove the Google Search widget, change the size of app icons, specify how many home screens you want, and customize the home button action.

Backgrounds HD — Free

backgrounds hd android
I change my wallpaper on a frequent basis to keep things fresh, but finding images that look good on a 1080p smartphone display isn’t always easily. Fortunately, Backgrounds HD has thousands of them. You can browse recent uploads and popular images, or find wallpapers by category. And when you find one you like, you can set it as from right within the app of favorite it so that it’s easy to find later.

What Are You Using?

If you’ve discovered any awesome apps or games lately, drop us a comment down below. They don’t necessarily have to be new — so long as they’re good, I’d like to know about them.

Kaspersky stepback with Facebook SMS Claims

Kaspersky stepback with Facebook SMS Claims

Kaspersky is backpedaled on its earlier statements wherein it claimed that Facebook was intentionally reading users’ SMS and other confidential information. In an emailed statement to various media outlets, Kaspersky denied being the source of insinuation against Facebook.

Kaspersky-stepback-with-Facebook-SMS-Claims-featureup
Kaspersky clarified that it wasn’t the source of the news and that it only intended to comment on the technical aspects of the social networking giant’s Android app’s permissions.

The security company had said yesterday that Facebook’s Android app was under scrutiny over the permissions it was requesting specifically the one related to SMS. “Buried within the latest update for Facebook’s Android app is a feature that is causing growing concern among some users”, Kaspersky had said yesterday.

Kaspersky was also apprehensive for the fact that Facebook was automatically reading the SMS to verify a user’s identity and instead could have provided a prompt to manually enter the verification code.

“The key, it seems to lie in the word ‘automatically’. Surely the app doesn’t need to do this automatically. Facebook could simply prompt me to type in the code manually. Or, at the very least, provide this option,” said Kaspersky.

Hours after the original statements were sent out to media outlets, Kaspersky sent out a clarification saying: “This email was sent out to media at large hoping that we will get queries & would respond to it accordingly. Kaspersky Lab would thus like to clarify their position and state that they are not holding Facebook responsible for this in any manner & are only commenting on the news that has already been published.”
