One Plus have announced a new device today.. Basically it is a bumped up version of the One Plus 3 which to date has been quite solid and for the money you just cant go wrong if your looking for a powerful phone at half the cost of flagship devices from Samsung and Apple and so on…
The device has more RAM, A bigger battery and better camera and more storage and will set you back a little more than the asking price of the One PLus 3 at launch which was €399 but the new model will set you back 439.00 and will go on sale on the 28th of November 2016… I might pass on this as I have the One plus 3 and is serving me well and I have other devices in mind but for anyone looking for a new device this Christmas this could be the one for you,I will wait a bit longer myself and see what reviews come in like rather than jump in like before.. Depending on how sterling is and with brexit it will interesting to see how this fairs out in price, I got my One Plus 3 for €364 so there could be a bargain to be had here yet unless they up the price like they did before. The device though has the same industrial design as before and current OP3 owners might just pass…
The new S range has a stylish new build, new colours and much more storage capacity so an ideal gift for this Christmas. A great first computer for kids or students or even for your own use!

Samsung lovers out there ended up with a broken hear after the Note7 fiasco.Some of them swiched to another company, others who remained with the brand and went for a Galazy S7 or S7 EDGE instead.
Well, now that everything has settled down and we all know the Note 7 is not coming back, the company decided this is a time to give a bonus to those loyal costumers letting them have that elusive and attractive Blue Coral color scheme on their phones.
There’s nothing really special about this S7 series besides the color, the same hardware we all know and love.
Great camera, performance, battery… Etc, but what brough you here wasn’t that. It was the chance of having something different than the rest.
Unfortunately, that’s not going to happen soon, The device is going to be launch in Taiwan by November 1st and in Singapore by the 5th.
There’s no news about availability regarding other countries but we can expect that to happen, especially thanks to the great demand that color had with the Note7.
In case you can’t wait for them to realased over our shores and you don’t mind importing, the price will be NT$24,900 ($790) which is, (to be honest) a bit higher considering the only change is a paint job.
But you tell us, Will you go for this phone just because a new color option? Do you still think the S7 EDGE is the phone to beat this year?

During an event yesterday, Microsoft unveiled their two new offerings in the computer department.
Aiming not only to consumers that need portability but also the ones that need a powerhouse at home, we now see the company focusing once again in hardware…Well except mobile phones anyway..
Surface Book I7
There’s no big news on the portable side as what we have is a revindication of what I should have been the first offering.
The Surface Book is a great device, but for the more demanding professionals is was aimed, Not having the greatest battery life and some compatibility issues was a let down. But those flaws were attacked and now we have a new offer with the latest I7 processor (hence the name).
Also, they improved the graphics performance and increased the battery by 30%, everything else remains the same as previous models.
They even made a video just to say that, take a look:
The new model will be available starting in November and will start at $2,399 with pre-orders already open.
Surface Studio
This was the main attraction during the event, dubbed as “Surface Studio” this All-in-one PC is aimed to professional photographers, designers as well as Illustrators.
With a huge 28″ LCD PixelSense Display and a resolution of 4,500 x 3,000 (3:2 aspect), the Studio is Microsoft take on Apple’s iMac series.
Only one big difference though, the panel is completely tactile, which offer a whole new world of possibilities.
The spec sheet is quite impressive:

The Surface Studio will be available in December with some pre-orders being available for the holiday season, the next batch will have to wait till next year.
The price tag of the base model will be $2,999.00 going all the way up to $4,199.00 for the high-end model.
Capable of Pen input as you’d expect from a Surface product, that’s not the only trick under the sleeve.
Pair with the “Zero Gravity Hinge” that allows it to go from monitor to drawing desk, the addition we are really impressed is the Surface Dial.
As You can see from the video above, the Dial is not just an extra tool to have around, Its what will complement the experience when your primary work is on the designing or editing process.
With haptic feedback to let you know you’re changing option without seeing using the radial input, add free location on the screen and you ready to work whenever you want.
As extra, the little gadget with not only be compatible with the new Studio Pc, but also with the Surface Book and the Surface Pro 4.
The can get a standalone Dial once available for $99 with just one color option (looks fine to me), but if you pre-order the Surface Studio before next month you’ll one for free.
But tell us, Do you think Microsoft is offering a solid option against the iMac or the MacBook that are currently on the market? Will be good enough to compete with today’s announcements from Apple?

Something all gamers have always dreamt of, is having the same performance of their more than capable desktop computers when going on the road, but even the “gamer laptops” tended to be a little under powered compare to those bigger siblings.
All that is just about to change thanks to NVIDIA and their newly announced GeForce 10 series of GPU made for NoteBooks
Earlier this week, the company let us know that thanks to the new Pascal architecture made for laptops, we can now have the GTX1080, the 1070 and the 1060 running inside “ultra-portable” NoteBooks.
And according to them, you´ll see only 10% dropin performance compare to desktop cards and up to 3x better performance over previous generations.
Some of the specs we have are:
GeForce GTX 1080
GeForce GTX 1070
GeForce GTX 1060

Thanks to Pascal, we also have VR ready laptops, with support even for 120Hz monitors.
By now, we’ve seems lots of OEMs jumping on the train to have the latest offers, but something to have in mind will be cost.
There’s no official price at the moment but the MSI computer that already carry the cards are nowhere near “cheap”.
So is up to you, Will you get your “portable Master Race PC” as soon as they become available? Or will you stick to game just at home?
