Samsung Just Launched Its New Flip Phone With Dual Display, F1.5 Aperture Phone Camera

Mobile photography is advancing at a difficult speed to assimilate and records are beating with amazing speed. For a couple of generations, maybe more, the cameras have taken a special role and much of the efforts of the manufacturers are dedicated to its improvement. The results we see almost with each release.

One of the aspects that are taken care of more lately is that the quality of the lenses and their opening. The low-light photography has become one of the highlights of each high-end device, in a factor to stand out from the competition.

Samsung is one of the companies that is raising more expectations in recent months. This is not strange, since every time new rumors of its next member of the Galaxy family with which it wants to surprise us in 2018 come out. But what you probably do not know is that the company does not have its top of range open to the pockets of all. We are talking about the Samsung W2018.

A folding smartphone with world’s first F1.5 aperture camera

One of the trends next year in telephony is, apart from the arrival of 5G, flexible mobiles. Patents come and signed by different companies and one of the most intriguing is that for the Samsung Galaxy X. This could be the first phone with a structure capable of bending and running without problems. But the Korean firm has other models to launch before this device.

This is the Samsung W2018, which looks like a classic smartphone with a 4.2-inch SuperAMOLED screen, but it’s surprising that it’s a folding phone. Inside it also has another 4.2-inch display that shares FullHD and Gorilla Glass 5 resolution.

As you can imagine, apart from controlling it with the touch screen, inside we find the typical design of models such as the Motorola V3, for example, with a numeric keypad, navigation buttons in addition to the selection, hang up and pick up the call.

In the section of the cameras, it has a sensor of 5MP in the front, while in the rear has 12MP with F/1.5 aperture. Before viewing the inside of the Samsung W2018 it should be noted that it also has a fingerprint sensor in the back.

While under its chassis, we can find a processor of Qualcomm, Snapdragon 835 with 6GB of RAM. In addition to having a USB-C type connection, it has a 2300 mAh battery and an internal storage that goes from 64 to 256 GB. Its operating system will be the Android Nougat version accompanied by the virtual assistant Bixby.

A phone that is not for everyone

If you thought that the Samsung Galaxy S8 was out of your reach, after knowing the price of the Samsung W2018 you will definitely change your mind. As the price of the Korean type shell phone does not have a fixed price yet, but using what its predecessor cost (W2017) could exceed $3,000. In India, Its expected price is Rs.1,56,000.

Nvidia Launches Titan V, ‘World’s Most Powerful PC GPU’

Moore’s law is the name given to an observation made by the co-founder of Intel in 1965. Moore’s Law talks about doubling the number of transistors per inch in about every two years.

However, in recent years, Intel has strived to keep pace and comply with the Moore’s Law. NVIDIA chairman Jensen Huang gave a talk last week at the GPU Technology Conference (GTC) 2017 in China, he mentioned that in the future the GPU would exceed the power of the CPU and that with it the Law of Moore would be officially dead.

Huang referred to Moore’s Law by saying that although the number of transistors has increased by 50% each year, this is not reflected in performance.

The NVIDIA CEO recognizes that it is becoming increasingly difficult for chip designers to increase this number and so is exploring other options such as multi-chip GPUs.

Turn and move as Nvidia announces the world’s fastest video card. The company did not want to end 2017 without reinforcing that tradition: Titan V is the newest all-powerful GPU for PCs of the brand. And, well, it’s expensive, too expensive: you need to shell out $2,999 if you want to take this GPU.

The price is subject to discussion, but it is undeniable that Titan V even has a lot of firepowers. Nvidia talks about the performance of up to 14.9 teraflops in single precision (FP32) and up to 110 teraflops in machine learning applications, capacity is nine times higher than that of the equally powerful Titan XP, a board launched in April.

This ‘V’ in the name is a reference to the most notable feature of the model: the device is based on the Volta GV100 core, the same as the Tesla V100, a plate line specifically designed for artificial intelligence applications and which therefore can equip supercomputers, for example.

The Volta GV100 architecture is based on a 12-nanometer FFN fabrication process from TSMC. What matters most here is that we can find a chip with 21.1 billion transistors in a die of 815 millimetres square.

Other generous numbers are part of the package. We found 5,120 CUDA cores divided into six clusters, the frequency of 1,200 MHz (1,455 MHz in boost), 640 tensor cores (used in machine learning), 320 TMUs (units for texturing), as well as TDP of 250 W.

The Nvidia Titan V also comes with 12GB of HBM2 memory, an 850 MHz memory frequency, an interface of 3,072 bits and a speed of 1.7 Gb/s (gigabits per second). With all these specifications, the memory bandwidth reaches 652.8 GB/s (gigabytes per second). Other details include support for three DisplayPort ports and one HDMI.

Note that this is not necessarily a heavy-duty video card, though nothing prevents you from using it for that purpose. The main goal here is to meet the increasing volume of processing directed to artificial intelligence applications. Taking that into account, the price of $2,999 is not bad enough, right?

Toshiba Launches World’s First 14TB CMR Hard Drive

Toshiba Electronics Devices & Storage Corporation has just announced the launch of its new series of high capacity hard drives MG07ACA. These hard drives will be characterized by using up to nine internal dishes and using EMR as a recording method for data and not only that even these new hard drives will be filled with helium to minimize friction when they want the dishes.

Although solid-state hard disks (SSD) are becoming more and more prevalent in almost all aspects of computing, that is only true when it comes to user-level computing. When it comes to information technology at the company level, the reality is quite different.

In these cases, what prevails is the internal capacity of the device, not so much its speed for storage. Yes, of course, it is much better than the disk is as fast as possible. But it is more important that you can store the largest amount of data, at the lowest possible price. And if its maintenance is easier, then it will be much better.

It is in this area where Toshiba a Japanese multinational conglomerate has just presented its new MG07ACA hard drive. These new units will simply use conventional recording method Recording (CMR). And its use is mainly oriented to business-type servers and the cloud, where it is necessary to have a large storage capacity.

The new MG07ACA will have two versions available, yes, the new models that the Japanese multinational conglomerate Toshiba has just introduced will reach the market in two storage capacities:-

• The first model that will have 12 TB of internal storage capacity formed by eight dishes.
• The second model will have 14 TB of internal storage capacity consisting of nine dishes.

In both cases, the interior of the discs will be filled with helium. As we already hinted earlier and we all know very well that helium is a noble gas that has very little resistance to friction. Which means that the disks inside the hard drive move with more, and ease. Redundant in a greater longevity of the device and a lower consumption at the time of functioning.

The reason why the Japanese multinational conglomerate Toshiba has chosen the CMR system for their new discs is because, right now the industry is in a period of transition between this method of magnetic recording and the SMR (Shingled Magnetic Recording). And there are still a few years left so that really this last method ends up being imposed within the industry.

Therefore, this recording method is still valid in the industry. And the normal thing is that they keep coming out new models for it, apart from the new models that use this new recording method.

So, what do you think about these two new hard drives of the Japanese multinational conglomerate Toshiba? Simply share all your views and thoughts in the comment section below.
