Sony PlayStation 4 to be launched in India on 18th Dec 2013

Sony has decided to launch its most awaited next generation gaming console PlayStation 4 in India on December 18. Meanwhile, there has been no announcement from Microsoft on the launch or availability of Xbox One in India. So that Sony 1-0 over MS.

The latest console from the Japanese company has already got off to a flying start, with more than 2.1 million units having been sold in the month since launch.

Sony PS4 is the successor to the PS3, which was launched in 2006. PS4 was first launched in the US on November 15, followed by Europe, Australia and UAE. The India launch of the console is scheduled ahead of countries such as Japan, Indonesia and Singapore. In the US, PS4 costs $400 (Rs 25,000).

Sony has not announced the price of the console in India, but given the $399 price in the US, we are expecting the price tag to sport a number close to the Rs 30,000 mark. While the imminent launch is indeed good news for gamers in the country, the PS4 has got off to a slow start as far as new titles are concerned.

The PS4 has an AMD-based x86 processor will be powering the console. It has 8GB of unified high-speed memory and a 500GB hard drive. The new controller, DualShock 4, has a touch pad with a share button, a headphone jack and a light bar to identify players. The Share button on the controller will let you upload any video you from your console quickly to video services such as YouTube. Videos are automatically uploaded while you play a game.

One of the coolest features of the PS4 is that it can download games in the background, even when the system is powered off. Games can also be played while they’re being downloaded.

Pricing and availability details in India will be known after the launch. Keep checking !!!

Apple iPhone 5C : The colorful iPhone but not Cheap

All-New Design, Packed with Incredible Features in Five Gorgeous Colors

Apple® today introduced iPhone® 5c, featuring an all-new design, packed with incredible features in five gorgeous colors—blue, green, pink, yellow and white. iPhone 5c is built on a foundation of features people know and love like the beautiful 4-inch Retina® display, blazing fast performance of the A6 chip, and the 8 megapixel iSight® camera—all while delivering great battery life. iPhone 5c comes with more LTE bands than any other smartphone in the world, a new FaceTime® HD camera, and iOS 7, the most significant iOS update since the original iPhone.

“iPhone 5c is everything iPhone 5 was and more, in an all-new design packed with great features,” said Philip Schiller, Apple’s senior vice president of Worldwide Marketing. “iPhone 5c is designed with a beautiful polycarbonate enclosure that looks and feels so solid in your hand.”

iPhone 5c features an all-new design crafted from a single, hard-coated polycarbonate body with a steel reinforced frame for a solid, sturdy feel. The steel frame holds the internal components and also doubles as the iPhone 5c’s multiband antenna. The enclosure is one continuous and seamless structure that is finished with a hard coat for a durable and incredibly glossy surface. To complement the all-new iPhone 5c design, Apple created soft, matte, microfiber-lined cases in a very intentional contrast to the glossy, hard coat finish. These sleek silicone cases with unique circular patterns let splashes of color show through, and with five iPhone 5c colors and six cases to choose from, you can mix and match for dozens of fun combinations.

iPhone 5c comes with all the features customers love in iPhone 5, and more. The Apple-designed A6 chip provides incredible performance and power efficiency, all while delivering great battery life, so almost everything you do on iPhone 5c is blazing fast, from launching apps and loading web pages to downloading email attachments. iPhone 5c features a stunning 4-inch Retina display and an 8 megapixel iSight camera, the most popular camera in the world. iPhone 5c also includes a new FaceTime HD camera for even better FaceTime calls and self-portraits, and with iOS 7, you can make audio-only FaceTime calls for the first time.

iPhone 5c makes it even easier to connect to high-speed networks with support for up to 13 LTE¹ wireless bands, more than any other smartphone in the world. With download speeds up to 100 Mbps², you can browse, download and stream content even faster. iPhone 5c includes dual-band 802.11 a/b/g/n Wi-Fi support for up to 150 Mbps² and Bluetooth 4.0. iPhone 5c delivers an amazing 10 hours of talk time on 3G networks, up to 10 hours of web browsing on Wi-Fi and LTE networks and up to 8 hours on 3G networks, and up to 10 hours of video playback and up to 40 hours of audio playback.³

iPhone 5c comes with iOS 7, the most significant iOS update since the original iPhone, featuring a stunning new user interface, completely redesigned with an elegant color palette, distinct, functional layers and subtle motion that make it feel more alive. iOS 7 is designed to complement the gorgeous exteriors of iPhone 5c, with matching wallpapers and translucency that carry the color through the entire experience. iOS 7 has hundreds of great new features, including Control Center, Notification Center, improved Multitasking, AirDrop®, enhanced Photos, Safari®, Siri® and introduces iTunes Radio℠, a free Internet radio service based on the music you listen to on iTunes®.⁴

Designed specifically for iOS, iPhoto®, iMovie®, Pages®, Numbers® and Keynote® are among the most popular apps in the App Store and are now available as free downloads with the purchase of iPhone 5c. iPhoto and iMovie enable you to do more than you ever thought possible with your photos and movies, and with Pages, Numbers and Keynote you can create, edit and share stunning documents, spreadsheets and presentations on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch.

Pricing & Availability
iPhone 5c comes in blue, green, pink, yellow and white and will be available in the US for a suggested retail price of $99 (US) for the 16GB model and $199 (US) for the 32GB model.

The entry-level 16GB iPhone 5c without a contract has been priced at $549 in the US. That comes out to a whopping Rs. 35,000 at current exchange rates (1 USD = 63.65 INR) and does not include the duties and other charges that come in while pricing a product in India. If you were hoping for a sub-Rs. 25,000 pricing for the iPhone 5c in India, it's safe to say we won't see anything like that.

The pricing in other regions is even worse, with the iPhone 5c priced at 599 euros (approximately Rs. 50,500) in Germany and 469 pounds in the UK (approximately Rs. 47,000). Of course both those prices include VAT, which can be sizeable. Pricing in Hong Kong is HKD 4,688 (approximately Rs. 38,500). However, it's the pricing in China, one of two "emerging markets" - the other being India - that the iPhone 5c was said to be targeting that is really surprising. The iPhone 5c price in China is 4488 Chinese Yuan Renminbi, which works out to over Rs. 46,500, without duties or any other charges.

Apple iPhone 5S : The New iPhone in the Market

Apple calls it the 'Most Forward-Thinking Smartphone in the World'. Yup the most awaited Apple iPhone 5S is finally launched. And it is as per most of the rumours which were floating around.

The all-new A7 chip in iPhone 5s brings 64-bit desktop-class architecture to a smartphone for the first time. With up to twice the CPU and graphics performance, almost everything you do on iPhone 5s is faster and better than ever, from launching apps and editing photos to playing graphic-intensive games—all while delivering great battery life. Apple also engineered iOS 7 and all the built-in apps to maximize the performance of the A7 chip. iPhone 5s is the best mobile gaming device with access to hundreds of thousands of games from the App Store℠, the A7 chip’s 64-bit architecture and support for OpenGL ES version 3.0. iPhone 5s delivers incredibly rich and complex visual effects, previously only possible on Macs, PCs and gaming consoles.

Every iPhone 5s includes the new M7 motion coprocessor that gathers data from the accelerometer, gyroscope and compass to offload work from the A7 for improved power efficiency. Developers can also access new CoreMotion APIs that take advantage of M7, so they can create even better fitness and activity apps that go well beyond what other mobile devices offer. The M7 motion coprocessor continuously measures your motion data, even when the device is asleep, and saves battery life for pedometer or other fitness apps that use the accelerometer all day.

iPhone 5s introduces Touch ID, an innovative way to simply and securely unlock your iPhone with just the touch of a finger. Built into the home button, Touch ID uses a laser cut sapphire crystal, together with the capacitive touch sensor, to take a high-resolution image of your fingerprint and intelligently analyze it to provide accurate readings from any angle. Setting up Touch ID to recognize your fingerprint is easy, and every time you use it, it gets better. The Touch ID sensor recognizes the touch of a finger so the sensor is only activated when needed, preserving battery life. All fingerprint information is encrypted and stored securely in the Secure Enclave inside the A7 chip on the iPhone 5s; it’s never stored on Apple servers or backed up to iCloud®. Touch ID can also be used as a secure way to approve purchases from the iTunes Store®, App Store or iBooks Store℠.

iPhone 5s makes it even easier to take great photos with the world’s most popular camera. The all-new 8 megapixel iSight camera features a larger f/2.2 aperture and a new, larger sensor with 1.5μ pixels for better sensitivity and low-light performance, resulting in better pictures. These improvements, along with the Apple-designed image signal processor in the A7 chip and the new Camera app in iOS 7, provide up to two-times faster auto-focus, faster photo capture, automatic image and video stabilization, and better dynamic range. iPhone 5s introduces the new True Tone flash—the world’s first for any camera—that variably adjusts color and intensity for over 1,000 combinations, so photos taken with a flash appear more natural. iPhone 5s also includes a new Burst Mode, Slo-Mo video with 120 fps, a new FaceTime® HD camera for better low-light performance and audio-only FaceTime calls with iOS 7.

iPhone 5s features a remarkable thin and light, precision-crafted design that customers around the world love, including an anodized aluminum body with diamond cut chamfered edges, a stunning 4-inch Retina® display and glass inlays. iPhone 5s is available in three gorgeous metallic finishes including gold, silver and space gray. To complement iPhone 5s, Apple designed premium leather cases in six rich colors—beige, black, blue, brown, yellow and (RED)—with soft, color-matched microfiber lining.

Google sending Google Glass Invitations

Google sending Google Glass Invitations

Google has begun rolling out invitations for Google Glass similar to what it did for Google+ and other new applications it launches.

New Google Nexus 7 : Sleeker and more Powerful

New Google Nexus 7 : Sleeker and more Powerful

Google has introduced a sleeker version of its Nexus 7 tablet with Android 4.3 Jelly Bean and it comes with a Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Pro 8064 processor rated at 1.5GHz.

Nexus 7 brings you the perfect mix of power and portability and features the world’s sharpest 7” tablet screen - putting over 2.3 million pixels in the palm of your hand.

With 323 pixels packed into every inch, you can read text that’s sharper than the printed page, see images more vivid than the highest quality photo magazine, and watch videos come to life in vibrant 1080p HD.

The device, which touts a high-definition LCD display, comes with 5.0MP rear-facing and 1.2MP front-facing cameras, Bluetooth 4.0 and a micro USB 2.0 port for power and data transfer.

The new mobile operating system will allow users to access restricted profiles, limiting content for certain users. This can be used not only for parental controls, but also in places such as mall kiosks to limit accessibility.


The specs were not necessarily a surprise, especially after the 16 GB and 32 GB devices popped up on Best Buy's website hours before the event. The retailer's site listed the price for the 7-inch tablet at $229.99 for 16GB of memory and $269.99 for 32GB. You can find the full listing on Best Buy's site.

Google is also shipping a new 4G LTE version, priced at $349, which comes unlocked and will work with any carrier. It boasts nine hours of video playback and 10 hours of web browsing.

The all-new Nexus 7 will be available in the US beginning July 30 (with more countries coming soon!).

Right now, the Chromecast will support:

• YouTube
• Netflix
• Google Play
• Google Music

The S4 mini has most of the features of Galaxy S4, but with some specifications are trimmed to bring the price down. The Galaxy S4 Zoom is targeted at a more niche audience who would want the functionality of a full-fledged digital camera and all the phone functionality as well.

The S4 mini is priced at INR 27,900 while the S4 Zoom is priced at INR 29,900. Samsung is also offering free 50 GB Dropbox space and a Flip Cover for S4 Zoom buyers. As an introductory offer, users of Reliance network will get 2GB data free on 3G for three months should they buy either of these phones.

Galaxy S4 Mini has a dual-core processor clocked at 1.7GHz coupled with 1.5GB of RAM definitely sets the Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini off to a decent start. A 4.3-inch Super AMOLED qHD display adorns the face of the S4 Mini.The 4.3-inch screen is larger than that of the iPhone 5, and the whole handset measures in with a smaller yet deeper frame than the Samsung Galaxy S4, at 124.6 x 61.3 x 8.94mm (4.9 x 2.4 x 0.4 inches). The plastic chassis is more fitting to a handset of this pricing and helps to keep the weight low at only 107g (3.8oz).

Galaxy S4 zoom's best-in-class 10x Optical Zoom and a powerful 16MP BSI CMOS Sensor lets the user capture quality images from a distance. Samsung says that this feature makes it only the smartphone in the world with a 10x Optical Zoom.  It pretty much looks like a regular digital camera from the back and the phone is big and heavy, at 208 grams and 15.4 millimeters thick — almost double the thickness of the original Galaxy S4. With the revolutionary Zoom Ring, the user can access Galaxy S4 Zoom's key features in a simple and intuitive way.

Apple's New Mac Pro - The ultimate Machine

The new Apple Mac Pro is muscle through and through, starting with the new-generation Intel Xeon E5 chipset. With configurations offering up to 12 cores of processing power, up to 40GB/s of PCI Express gen 3 bandwidth, and 256-bit-wide floating-point instructions, you’ll never be at a loss for speed.

And at just 9.9 inches tall with a diameter of just 6.6 inches,Apple Mac pro is truly a pro desktop computer that can actually sit on your desk.

Engineered around workstation graphics with dual GPUs, PCI Express-based flash storage, high-performance Thunderbolt 2, new-generation Xeon processors, ultrafast memory, and support for 4K video, the new Apple Mac Pro delivers state-of-the-art performance across the board. That includes a four-channel DDR3 memory controller running at 1866MHz. It delivers up to 60GB/s of memory bandwidth, which means you can fly through even the most compute-intensive tasks in no time.

Not only does Mac Pro feature a state-of-the-art AMD FirePro workstation-class GPU with up to 6GB of dedicated VRAM — it features two of them. With all that power, you’ll be able to do things like seamlessly edit full-resolution 4K video while simultaneously rendering effects in the background — and still have enough power to connect up to three high-resolution 4K displays.

There’s flash storage, and then there’s next-generation PCI Express flash storage. We’re talking storage that’s up to 2.5 times faster than the fastest SATA-based solid-state drive and up to 10 times faster than a 7200-rpm SATA hard drive.

An incredible amount of innovation went into designing a fan system capable of cooling such a high-performance device. Instead of adding extra fans, we engineered a single, larger fan that pulls air upward through a bottom vent. As air passes vertically through the center of the device, it absorbs heat and carries it out the top.

Designed with built‑in Thunderbolt 2, USB 3, Gigabit Ethernet, and HDMI 1.4 ports, Apple Mac Pro sets a new standard in flexible, high-performance expansion.

With Pro you can access your network over three-stream 802.11ac Wi-Fi for the latest in high-speed wireless connectivity. For all your other wireless connections, Mac Pro includes Bluetooth 4.0.

The Price for this new device which will be launched later this year is not yet announced but its going to be on the higher side keeping in mind the things its stuffed with.

The fact that the GPU is not user-replaceable remains a huge issue and has to be addresses for the 3D users who use heavy applications like Maya.

But its got No Optical drive , anyways who uses Optical drive these days..everything is on Cloud !!! The redesign of this new Apple Mac Pro is the most drastic change and hope it is gonna change the way people look at desktops. The price is going to be a key though.
