Gamesir, a leading provider in innovative, high quality game peripherals is pleased to announce the launch of the new VX AimBox.
Designed for use with multiple consoles, the VX AimBox features the most advanced technology for a keyboard and mouse adapter for PlayStation, Xbox and Nintendo Switch.
Console controllers are excellent for playing many games, but if you are a gamer who wants to be highly competitive and perform your best, you need that bit extra. If you play FPS it can be difficult to transition to using a controller – especially if you have been using a keyboard and mouse throughout your gaming life. The GameSir VX AimBox is simply the best option for gamers to work around the restrictions of console controllers and get back to using a mouse and keyboard combo with the adapter.
The VX AimBox is a wired adaptor with no wireless receiver or power switch meaning there is a fast and flexible connection with no latency. Easy to use with advanced VX agility translator technology, the VX AimBox provides 1:1 gaming accuracy with mouse and keyboard on the Xbox, PlayStation and Nintendo Switch. Highly customizable for each game thanks to the GameSir mobile app, you can modify the keymaps and mouse sensitivity to suit you for any game.
The three USB 2.0 ports are reversible so you can plug a USB mouse and keyboard in any direction that you choose without having to worry about whether the unit is upside down or not. The VX AimBox also features a Type C interface to provide a power supply if you choose to use a keyboard or mouse that needs an extra power boost.
Compatible with all gaming keyboards and gaming mice, the VX AimBox is the only adapter you need, no matter which console you choose to game on.
Mobistealth is one of the best spy apps with unique features. It is compatible with a wide range of phones. The user interface of Mobistealth is also is the best. An app is spy software installed on devices to track its activities. The size of the app is about 1MB.
Many people or family members sometimes need to track other members. One of the critical usages of mobile spy app is that it allows for tracking your device. In case you lost your phone, or it is stolen, or you forgot it somewhere, Mobistealth will make it convenient for you to recover or reach your device.
Installing the spy app on a smartphone is easy and require just a few steps. The steps are described below for those who are not aware of the app installation process.
Go to the home screen, click the menu and check the unknown sources option in the settings.
Open the mobile browser and open the link given by the Mobistealth. The mobile spy app installation will start on your phone.
When the downloading is complete, open the notification menu and confirm the installation by pressing the download finished. As it is a spy app, it is not named Mobistealth, the name of the app on your device will be SecurePhone. Click the install button, and you will be done with the installation process.
Restart the phone to make sure Mobistealth is ready to perform desired functions. After 5-10 minutes of installation, the data is uploaded on the Mobistealth. Now you can monitor all the activities of the phone.
The spy app can save personal information, contact information, monitor the activities on the Google, YouTube or social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter even it can keep the sensitive data like password and account details of the owner.
How Does Mobistealth Work?
Mobistealth is installed on a mobile device and then connected to the website where all the phone data is uploaded. From there you can check the message and calls and with the browsing history and other information you are concerned.
Spying on Calls/SMS/ pictures/videos
After few minutes of installing the spy app on the phone, you will see the messages, call history of the mobile, access the browsing history, and all the phone data, including the pictures and videos. The phone you are spying does not indicate that the other person accesses the data on the phone.
GPS
The spy app can easily trace the location. Now and then, location data is updated. You can adjust the time interval for which you need to be informed about the user’s location. Location accuracy can get optimized based on your needs. And this is a handy feature if you have lost your cell phone, you can easily reach its location and make it possible to get it back.
Recording
The recording is the most useful and exciting function that you can perform through Mobistealth. You can record the calls on the phones without the person knowing it. Also, the Mobistealth is so highly developed that it can record the surrounding voices.
The most exciting thing about the spying app is that it does not notify the person using the mobile phone. He/she will have no idea that someone is observing and recording every single activity on the phone.
One thing that’s important to mention here is that the free app will have limited features. There will be no assistance if you face technical difficulties related to Mobistealth.
Which App Is Better Than Mobistealth?
Several apps are used for spying. Mobistealth reviews by the people are very positive and cheerful. Some of the other cell phone tracking reviews are given below.
Mspy: Mspy is a parental app. They use it to keep an eye on their children. Firstly, it shows the location of the user. And this is important for a parent, so they know where their child is. Secondly, the children having mobile phone and internet may be involved in unethical activities.
This app is handy to keep a strict check on social media chats and browsing on the internet.
Spyder: the best thing about spyder is that you do not need to root the target audience. Also, it has a very convenient interface that is easy to use. It can track location, can spy call logs and monitor application activities.
XNSPY: this is the spying app that can be used on all iPhones, iPods and smartphones. It requires one-time access on the device; once the setup runs, it is easy to spy on the device location, messages, calls, internet browsing, and social media activities.

British Addmaster Holdings Limited is since January 8, 2021, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Polygiene with specialist skills within antimicrobial technology and hard surfaces. The company has a range of products for this kind of applications, found in consumer products, public spaces as well as in hospital environments and more.
The UK-based Bullitt Group, makers of military-grade smartphones and the global licensee for CAT® phones, has launched the first fully antimicrobial mobile phone – the CAT S42. The entry-level Android smartphone with antimicrobial protection is designed for military use but is now also available to the public.
Every exterior component of the product including the screen made from Corning Gorilla Glass 5s has been treated with Addmaster Biomaster antimicrobial technology and tested to ISO 22196.
The technology inhibits the growth of microbes on the phone surface offering protection for the lifetime of the unit. Research shows that mobile phones harbor thousands of germs, with one University of Michigan study finding in excess of 17,000 bacteria on handsets. According to research from Deloitte, on average we interact with our mobile devices around 47 times daily. Bacteria or other microorganisms can easily transfer from the hard surfaces of your phone to your hands and face.
Biomaster technology combines with the existing CAT phone rugged credentials that ensure the device can be thoroughly and regularly washed with soaps and water, sanitizers and even bleach.
“The acquisition of Addmaster makes the company a comprehensive supplier of antimicrobial solutions for both soft and hard surfaces, and we clearly see synergies where existing and new partners can take advantage of our complete range of stays fresh solutions for any surface or product. And the partnership with Bullitt Group and CAT® phones is just the beginning”, says Andreas Holm, CCO of Polygiene.
Peter Cunningham, VP Product Portfolio at Bullitt Group says: “Throughout 2020 we have consistently been driving awareness of the importance of mobile hygiene for us all, but this is vital for those among our customers working within a health or social care setting and those visiting multiple sites for their job.”
“Using a CAT phone already allows them to have confidence that they can wash and sanitize their CAT phone regularly or between visits. The addition of antimicrobial product protection into the CAT S42 is another first for CAT phones and will make the CAT S42 more hygienic for users – such an important feature in the current climate.”
The Biomaster-treated CAT S42 is the first of a series of devices in the Bullitt Group phones range with antimicrobial technology, with others coming later in the year.
Dorna Sports is delighted to announce a partnership with Moto Trainer to launch a training revolution for riders across the globe. Bringing the thrill of Grand Prix racing to fans the world over, Moto Trainer is a motorbike simulator that allows riders to train on their own bikes.
Moto Trainer’s incredible software can virtually transport riders to the world’s greatest tracks, allowing riders to train on each and every MotoGP™ circuit across the globe. Suitable for sports bikes of all shapes and sizes, Moto Trainer can either be linked to the official MotoGP™ videogame, produced by long-standing MotoGP™ partner and videogame developer Milestone, or riders can follow an OnBoard lap of the track on which they wish to train.
Linking the simulator to MotoGP™ videogame allows riders to become part of the action like never before, with real-world movement perfectly synchronised to the digital rendering of their riding on-screen. On-board laps, meanwhile, provide the perfect blueprint for riders to follow – allowing even the most veteran riders to train in seamless synchronicity with their on-screen counterpart.
Andrea Lombardi, CEO of MotoTrainer: “The software behind Moto Trainer, developed by our engineers, is capable of playing any onboard video, and allows riders to save their efforts on a telemetry master track. This means that you can load any circuit and motorbike you want, with riders replicating the video to the reference telemetry. The software then analyses the rider’s performance by monitoring the accelerator, front and rear brakes, gearbox and trajectories. It’s a platform that allows bikers to train on every circuit in the world at an affordable price.”
Pau Serrancanta, Managing Director at Dorna Sports: “I’m delighted to be able to announce this agreement, adding yet another way in which fans are able to connect with and enjoy their favourite sport. In addition, the fact that it can also be used alongside the MotoGP™ videogame proves another bolster to Dorna’s eSports project, which continues to go from strength to strength.”
Evernote, the productivity app that lets users remember everything and accomplish anything, today unveils Home, the first in a series of powerful new features being introduced this year. Home is a one-stop dashboard that gives users access to their most relevant content. Important notes, tags and shortcuts are instantly available and neatly organised upon opening the app, making Home the fastest way to get to things that matter.
Evernote Home is rolling out to Mac, Windows and Evernote Web customers over the next few weeks, with iOS and Android to follow.
Home provides users with more than one way to organise their content, giving them the freedom to shape their Evernote experience and see the information they want, the way they want it. This new feature will enable users to work faster and stay focussed, helping them to keep on top of everything without feeling overwhelmed.
When opening Home, Evernote Basic and Premium users will find three default widgets:
Notes: Users can select “Recent” notes to quickly pick up where they left off with any project; or choose “Suggested” notes and let Evernote’s powerful AI surface the content needed
Scratch Pad: Users can stay in the zone by jotting down quick notes on Home’s scratch pad. Notes can be left there forever, erased or converted into a note at any time.
Recently captured: This widget shows users all the rich content saved recently, taking users straight to their web clips, images, documents, audio and emails.
Evernote Premium and Business subscription users also have access to widgets for Notebooks, Pinned Note, Tags and Shortcuts as well as the ability to customise their home background image to fit their personal style. The combination of these widgets provides a powerful way for Evernote users to see their content and manage it all.
Ian Small, Evernote CEO comments: “When we began rolling out the new Evernote in September we promised that it was just the start of the journey and that we were laying the groundwork for new features and faster innovation in the future, the first of which is Home. Over time we’ll be making these widgets more powerful, more flexible and more helpful, adapting them to the wide variety of uses users rely on to manage their busy lives. We’ll also be introducing additional widgets that reach deeper into Evernote and explore new capabilities, making Home the perfect place to start the day.”
‘Reset Earth’ is an innovative educational platform for adolescents about the fundamental role of the ozone layer in protecting the planet. The project launches on World Education Day (January 24th) with a virtual world premiere of the original animation film that explores options for collective positive action here. The film’s plot continues in a challenging mobile game for Android and IOS (February 10th). The platform is initiated by United Nations Ozone Secretariat to sustain the protection of the ozone layer through the sensitisation and engagement of Gen Z.
Ozone-depleting substances (ODSs) like chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), and hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) have been widely used throughout the 20th century, mostly for refrigeration, in air conditioners and aerosol sprays. ODSs threaten the earth’s upper atmosphere, drive up temperatures and account for close to 11 per cent of total warming emissions to date. Since the 1980s, the international community has acted to protect the ozone layer by banning or strictly restricting the use and production of such super greenhouse effect gases. Consequently, the Antarctic ozone is expected to close by the 2060s (without action, it might have been 40 per cent larger by now) and other regions will return to 1980s values even earlier.
Meg Seki, Acting Executive Secretary of the Ozone Secretariat, said, “The protection of the ozone layer cannot be considered a done deal. It must be a continuous effort by us and by future generations. If our children learn about the grim consequences of a ruined ozone layer through a fantasy cartoon and game app, they will be aware of its importance and protect it.”
Reset Earth begins a year-long education initiative by the Secretariat to raise awareness and inspire action among adolescents and parents about global ozone protection. Immersive, educational and thought-provoking, Reset Earth conveys a positive message around what can be achieved through collective action and cultivates a sense of environmental responsibility and ownership amongst the youth.
The Reset Earth animation film is set in a dystopian post-apocalyptic world in 2084, where the ozone layer has been completely ruined and human life is under threat from an unstoppable virus called “The Grow”. It is the story of three teenagers who team up in an epic time-travel adventure to save the planet and what’s left of human life. Their mission is to find out what caused the “The Grow”. They travel back to critical historical moments in the story of the mysterious ‘ozone layer”, essential to stopping the virus, and learning as they go about the fundamental role it plays in protecting the health wellbeing of the planet. To save the ozone layer, they must jump back in time to ensure the signing of the Montreal Protocol agreement.
The Reset Earth mobile game is a single player platform game, combining a retro graphics style and hand-drawn artwork and aligned with the film’s storyline. Players – whether adolescent gamers or their parents – switch between characters and utilise their unique abilities throughout four levels of the game. Through unlocking puzzles, players learn about environmental history and the science of protecting the planet.
Outplay Entertainment, the largest independent mobile game developer in the UK, is releasing the match-two puzzle game Gordon Ramsay’s Chef Blast (Chef Blast) globally for iOS and Android devices. Created in close collaboration with Ramsay and Chinese co-development partner, iDreamSky, and inspired by the “Culinary Genius” television show, Chef Blast takes the sights, sounds, and joy of cooking and dishes them up in a fun, fresh, and accessible casual puzzle game. As players jostle their way to the top of the leader board, they are cheered on in ways that only Ramsay could as they try to unlock exclusive recipes created by him.
“When the team at Outplay told me the idea behind Chef Blast, I was immediately sold on it,” said Gordon Ramsay. “I can’t wait to turn up the heat on everyone and see how they do.”
Chef Blast challenges players in fun and innovative ways as a cartoon version of Chef Gordon Ramsay offers encouragement or the occasional virtual kick in the backside. By completing challenges, players are able to unlock some of the chef’s favourite recipes as well as new exclusives that have never been available online or in any of his top-selling cookbooks.
Additional Chef Blast features include:
CHEF RAMSAY – Fun animations and hundreds of lines of voice-over from the Chef himself provide an authentic Ramsay experience every step of the way.
BEEFY BOOSTERS – Players can use the satisfying kitchen Hammer, Peeler, Knife, or Whisk to help slice and dice their way to success.
RECIPE BOOK – With new recipes unlocking every two weeks, players have the opportunity to win and keep them within their very own Recipe Book.
GENIUS LEAGUE – Top players can compete in the exclusive Culinary Genius™ tournament to earn trophies and rewards.
“It’s been an absolute thrill and a once-in-a-lifetime experience for the entire team at Outplay getting to work with Chef Ramsay on Chef Blast,” said Outplay Entertainment Co-Founder and President Richard Hare. “I’m incredibly proud of what everyone has accomplished in bringing Chef Blast to players worldwide, especially during this chaotic time, and we can’t wait for players to get their chance to experience it for themselves.”
Gordon Ramsay’s Chef Blast is now available worldwide on the Apple App Store and Google Play. For more information on Outplay Entertainment and Chef Blast, follow the organization via its official websitehere, and onTwitter andFacebook.
One of the last pairs of true wireless to cross my review desk this year is the latest on offer from Jabra and we have covered by far the biggest range of true wireless earbuds in Ireland again this year and my Top 5 has changed several times but there is always one of Jabras earbuds in there with their consistent high quality earbuds and I cant see that changing anytime soon.
The latest on offer from the company yet again do not disappoint and offer all the features expected alongside their Jabra Sound Plus app which is one of the best apps out their today. Offering one of the best ANC experiences in TWS you can also pair with two devices at once here so for those who work from home or whatever the case is you can seamlessly switch between your laptop and phone.
There is some things missing from the 85t over the 75t but it is still easy to recommend either pair of these, the 85t drop in IP rating, bass is slightly less but their app does make up for it with the EQ settings and you cant use both earbuds independently something which is common it is the same again here with the 85t and the right bud is the one you cant use but this is not a huge deal for me. The Elite 85t are slightly bigger than the 75 and you will see in the unboxing video the differences.
The buds themselves are a comfy snug fit and have the familiar circular buttons which you touch to control all aspects of music and again they work a treat all the time every time and also when you do touch the earbuds you will feel no pressure on the ears doing so, So what do they sound like…Well again they are one of the best out there still and it is a hard call to make between these and the 75t but if you want to save money get the 75t you will be be still onto a winner, My usual testing provided me with what I expect from Jabra with great sound, direction speech, instrument’s and more. No matter what you listen to be it You Tube Spotify or Netflix you will be pleased and with the ability to change the EQ settings you are in control of the earbuds and not stuck with a default tone that not everyone will like you cant really lose here. There is no lag latency noticed either on any situation tested in and no drops in connection during my test period, check the video below for more…
