As per the company, the extended RAM feature offers a 60% increase in the startup speeds of apps. Where earlier only 9 apps would able to stay in memory, now a total of 20 apps can run simultaneously (via – MySmartPrice).

Drone carrying a defibrillator helped save a Swedish man after having a heart attack

By

-

Jan 6, 2022

The increasing deployment of drones to solve medical emergencies was brought to the fore again in an incident that happened in Sweden last December. A 71-year old man was resuscitated by a doctor who was supplied a defibrillator by a drone. The unnamed elderly man had a heart attack while shoveling snow, as reported by drone service company Everdrone. The remarkable incident indicates that the Everdrone Emergency Medical Aerial Delivery (EMADE) service was called in and, within minutes, was able to scramble a drone carrying a defibrillator that was then used by the medical doctor to save the life of the man.

The Everdrone’s EMADE service is designed to deliver the medical supply as quickly as possible. It allows emergency dispatchers to send the drone carrying the device to the location to give a headstart to the ambulance team which may take a bit longer to arrive at the location. In this particular case, the drone arrived just three minutes after it was requested. A bystander, who happened to be a doctor on the way to his job, then used the device on the patient after administering CPR.

The medical delivery drone is the outcome of a collaboration between the Swedish Center for Resuscitation Science, SOS Alarm, Region Vastra Gotaland, and Everdrone. The feat adds to Everdrone’s growing repertoire of successes using its cutting-edge drone technology with great emergency credentials and super-fast response times. A four-month pilot study had seen the drones delivering medical equipment faster before the ambulance arrived in most of the cases. The numbers from the pilot study were very impressive both in the response times and the actual delivery of the medical devices. Europe may join parts of Sweden already enjoying the EMADE service this year.

Nonetheless, the new update is now available with the firmware version W2022ZCU2BULF.

RichGo seems to be the most active Nokia accessory licensee considering the rate at which it churns out new products. Unfortunately, the brand’s products are only available in China. RichGo has now unveiled a new wireless headphone- the Nokia E1200 ANC.

The new model is still an over-the-ear headphone but this time around, it comes with Active Noise Cancellation (ANC) feature hence the appellation Nokia E1200 ANC.

The device bears the same design as the Nokia Essential Wireless Headphones E1200 and almost similar hardware save for a few differences. Apart from the active noise cancellation feature, the Nokia E1200 comes with Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity and is powered by a 700 mAh battery as against a 500mAh battery on the non-ANC version. The battery is said to deliver up to 50 hours of playback when the ANC is turned off and 24 hours with the feature turned on.

The Nokia E1200 ANC is a circumaural wireless headphone that will completely enclose the ears. The outer cover is built with anodized aluminum with a gloss finish, and the inner ear pads are coated with a soft leatherette (PU leather). The 40mm headbands are foldable so that it is convenient to carry along. The headphones also come with the voice assistant support of Google Assistant and Siri. You will also get the option to switch it into a wired headphone.

There is no word yet on the pricing and availability but it will likely be available in China only for now.

Lenovo Legion 5 series laptops with 16-inch 240hz screens, latest AMD & Intel CPUs launched

By

Jan 6, 2022

At CES 2022, Lenovo has unveiled their updated flagship Legion gaming laptops. The new devices feature the latest AMD and Intel processors, better cooling, and slimmer design. So let’s check out these new gaming machines.

Lenovo Legion 5 Pro/5i Pro (2022)

The 2022 refresh of the popular Lenovo Legion 5i brings Intel’s 12th gen Alder Lake CPUs with the highest offering of an i7-12700H. The Legion 5 Pro, which is the AMD variant houses the latest Ryzen 6000 processor, which was announced yesterday by AMD. Both variants will come with DDR5 RAM with speeds up to 4800mAh and 32GB maximum capacity. Storage options for these devices will go up to 1TB via PCIe SSD.

Lenovo remained tight-lipped on the graphics front, stating that the devices will come with the “latest GeForce RTX 30 series laptop GPU.” However, spec sheets reveal that at least one variant of these models will come with an 8GB VRAM GPU, which could be the Nvidia RTX 3070 or the RTX 3070 Ti.

Lenovo stated that these flagship Legion laptops would feature their latest Coldfront 4.0 cooling system, which is significantly quieter and cooler than the last-gen. This new system also allows the laptops to handle a total graphics power (TGP) of 165W, which is 15W more than the 2021 model. The Coldfront 4.0 system will give more thermal headroom to the laptops, allowing the GPU to sustain its boost frequency for longer.

Other than that, the Legion 5 Pro and 5i Pro feature a 16-inch 240Hz WQHD+ IPS panel with 500 nits peak brightness, Dolby Vision HDR support, and a 16:10 aspect ratio. For sound, two 2W stereo speakers are paired with Nahimic 3D Audio.

The laptops have a body made of magnesium-aluminum alloy and feature the same keyboard and trackpad as the 2021 models. One notable improvement has been made in their wireless capabilities, which now supports WiFi 6E.

The Intel-powered Legion 5i Pro goes on sale from February 2022, at a starting price of $1,569.99. The AMD-powered Legion 5 Pro will debut in April starting at $1,429.99.

Lenovo Legion 5/5i (2022)

The portability-focused Legion 5 and Legion 5i gaming laptop series have received a significant trim down, making it 15% slimmer than its predecessor. The Intel variants will come with up to an i7-12700H CPU, and the Ryzen powered Legion 5 is expected to come housing AMD Ryzen 6000 series CPU. Both models will be available with up to 32GB of DDR5 memory and up to 1TB PCIe SSD storage, up to Nvidia RTX 3060, and WiFi 6E support. The device will weigh around 2.4kg (5.29lbs), which is still quite heavy considering its 15% reduced thickness.

The Legion 5 and 5i will be equipped with the Coldfront 4.0 cooling system, a 15.6-inch 1440p screen, and USB-C charging. These laptops will also feature two 2W stereo speakers that are paired with Nahimic 3D Audio.

With the release of Xiaomi 12 and Xiaomi 12 Pro at the end of 2021, customers have been wondering when Xiaomi will release the 12 Ultra. Recent back cover and dummy leaks have given us an idea of how the upcoming device will look. Now, the Gizmochina team has exclusively obtained images of the Xiaomi 12 Ultra to provide you with a clearer picture.

This Xiaomi 12 Ultra case render image features the device with a back cover and reveals the same rear camera island design spotted in recent leaks. The image also gives credence to claims of the device having a quad-camera setup as four lenses are visible along with an LED flash.

The device is revealed to have a curved display, a first in the Xiaomi 12 lineup, while the front camera punch-hole is present in the center. The presence of the punch-hole also puts to rest the rumors about the 12 Ultra having an under-display camera (at least there’ll be a punch hole variant).

We know there have been rumors about the Xiaomi 12 Ultra being canceled in favor of the Xiaomi Mix 5 Pro, but our source didn’t have any information on this.

Earlier leaks have hinted that the device will feature a 6.6-inch 2K display. Additionally, the device is rumored to come with a quad-camera setup comprising a primary 50MP Samsung GN5 lens, a 48MP 2x zoom lens, a 48MP lens with 5x zooming capability, and lastly, a 48MP sensor with 10x zoom.

Under the hood, the 12 Ultra will come powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 SoC and is expected to have an ultrasonic fingerprint scanner. The phone may come with 120W rapid charging featured in the Xiaomi 12 Pro.

Although Xiaomi is yet to reveal any details regarding the Xiaomi 12 Ultra, the device is expected to debut in mid-February after the Chinese spring festival.

OnePlus is all set to launch the OnePlus 10 Pro on January 11 in China. The brand has been teasing the features of the smartphone for the past few days. Apart from disclosing the spec sheet, it has also revealed the design. Today, it has been confirmed that the handset will introduce new ColorOS features.

Our OnePlus 10 Pro official specifications story was based on the global announcement. Today, upon looking at the same announcement for the Chinese market, we found that the device will ship with ColorOS 12.1 based on Android 12.

This means the OnePlus 10 Pro will be the debut phone for ColorOS 12.1. Hence, the company has started teasing the new features of the latest version of OPPO’s mobile software.

A few hours ago, we reported on a new gaming feature called HyperBoost, which was revealed by OnePlus earlier today. Going by the posts by the official Weibo account of ColorOS, this feature will be mostly part of ColorOS 12.1 and not limited to the OnePlus’ new flagship.

This means other devices running the upcoming version of ColorOS could also have this feature. We think that it might be limited to certain high-end models as it is all about high graphics gaming with better thermal performance.

That said, we expect to learn more about ColorOS 12.1 as we are still days away from the launch of the OnePlus 10 Pro.

Amazon and Lockheed Martin have announced plans to send Alexa to space as part of the Artemis I NASA mission. The mission will be the first of several intended to land the first woman and the first person of color on the Moon.

Alexa will be used in NASA’s Orion spacecraft and will have access to real-time telemetry data through which it will be able to respond to thousands of mission-specific questions such as “Alexa, how fast is Orion traveling?” The virtual assistant will even process requests to control connected devices on board the Orion, starting with in-cabin lighting.

Using NASA’s Deep Space Network, Alexa can also retrieve all sorts of information from Earth for astronauts in space, whether it’s news briefings or sports scores, helping astronauts stay connected to home.

Artemis I will be an uncrewed mission because of which Amazon had to depend on a virtual crew experience at NASA’s Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas. It has been developed jointly with Lockheed Martin and Cisco. The experience will provide remote access to Callisto and simulate interactions between Alexa and future astronauts.

But it’s not just the crew and scientists that will be benefitting from the initiative, as back home, users with Alexa-compatible devices will be able to browse info on the mission. Access to Orion’s telemetry data as well as videos and photos from the mission will be granted.

Amazon will be launching the new Alexa features “closer to the mission”, but a preview is already available now available across Alexa-enabled devices. To access it, all you have say is “Alexa, take me to the Moon.”
