Taiwanese manufacturer Asus is all set to enter the smartphone segment with its ZenFone range next month.
The company will introduce on July 9 a number of smartphones, phonetabs and tablets in the country, including ZenFone models unveiled at this year's Consumer Electronics Show (CES) as well as Computex. This will mean Asus will have a device at every size ranging between 4, 4.5, 5, 5.5 and 6 inches, and above.
The biggest model in Asus's smartphone series is ZenFone 6, which sports a 6-inch HD screen. Unveiled at CES 2014, this phablet is powered by Android 4.4 (KitKat) mobile operating system and has a 2GHz dual-core Intel Atom Z2580 chipset under the hood.
ZenFone 6 comes in 8, 16 and 32GB storage options and supports external storage up to 64GB via microSD cards. Depending on the storage, the model comes with 1 or 2GB RAM. This phablet has a 13MP camera with LED flash on the back and a 2MP camera in front.
Unveiled at CES in January 2014, Asus ZenFone 5 has a 5-inch screen with 720p resolution and runs on Android 4.4 (KitKat). It will come with 8 and 16GB internal storage (and microSD support up to 64GB) along with 1 and 2GB RAM respectively.
ZenFone 5 also comes in two processor options: 2GHz dual-core Intel Atom Z2580 or 1.6GHz dual-core Atom Z2560. On the back, it has an 8MP camera with LED flash, while a 2MP camera is placed in front.
The ZenFone 5 model showcased at Computex earlier in June packs a 1.2GHz Snapdragon 400 processor instead of the Intel chipset. It has 2GB RAM and comes with 16 and 32GB storage options. The remaining features remain the same as that of its predecessor.
The first-generation ZenFone 4, unveiled at CES, has a 4-inch display featuring 800x480p resolution. This model runs on Android KitKat as well and is powered by the Intel chipset dual-core 1.2GHz Atom Z2520 processor. This model features 1GB RAM, 8GB internal storage and supports 64GB microSD support. It also has an 8MP camera with LED flash, but sports a VGA front camera.
At Computex 2014, ZenFone 4 got a minor upgrade, featuring a relatively bigger screen (4.5-inch screen with 854x480p resolution). The remaining features and specifications remain the same.
While the CES models have already hit the China market, India will be among the handful of markets to get the ZenFone products unveiled at Computex.
It is expected that these models will be positioned in the sub-Rs 25,000 segment and aimed primarily at budget to mid-range buyers.
Building upon its wide expertise in the tablet space, Amazon has unveiled its first smartphone today. So yes, all those rumors were true after all.
It's called the Amazon Fire Phone and its main selling points are bound to be Amazon's reach in terms of content services, as well as the unique 3D UI dubbed Dynamic Perspective.
This much talked about feature changes what's depicted on the screen depending on where you are in relation to the phone. It accomplishes this by tracking your eyes with four specialized cameras that are located in the front corners of the handset.
Dynamic Perspective ties in nicely with tilt gestures that allow you to initiate actions by simply moving the phone. For example, you can tilt the device to scroll inside the browser, something eerily reminiscent of Samsung's Smart Scroll feature. And the same thing works inside ebooks, and even games.
As previously leaked, the Fire Phone boasts a 4.7-inch IPS 720p touchscreen with 590 nits of brightness, a Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 chipset with a 2.2 GHz quad-core CPU and Adreno 330 GPU, and 2GB of RAM. It has support for 4G LTE.
The handset's frame is made from rubber, and a sheet of Gorilla Glass 3 is present both on its front and on its back. The buttons are made of anodized aluminum.
The rear camera is a 13MP f/2.0 unit with a five-element lens, and it comes with optical image stabilization as well as a dedicated hardware button. Amazon is throwing in free unlimited photo storage in its Cloud Drive.
The Fire Phone has two stereo speakers on the front with virtual surround sound. The earbuds that come in the box have a tangle-free cable and they snap to each other thanks to built-in magnets.
The Amazon Fire Phone runs Fire OS 3.5, which seems to be the same OS used on the Kindle Fire line of tablets. It's based on Android but lacks any of the Google's services.
Obviously Amazon has made a big deal about its content services too. Movies, TV shows, music, books, magazines, and newspapers - all are available right from the retail giant itself.
Furthermore, a new exclusive feature called Firefly uses the phone's camera or microphone to recognize the things around you and then find them in its database. So you can point the camera at a book, it's recognized and you're then immediately offered the option to purchase it from Amazon. This also works for identifying TV shows and songs, and it has its own dedicated button on the side of the Fire phone.
Another exclusive feature is Mayday, which gets you 24/.7 remote support for any task you would like to accomplish on the phone.
Amazon's first smartphone is exclusive to AT&T in the US.
The pricing is far from revolutionary. The commitment free price is $649. With a contract, the base 32GB Fire Phone would cost you $199 along with a new two-year contract with AT&T. Or you can choose the carrier's Next plans and pay $27 per month for the device. A 64GB option is available for $299.
So no, the Amazon phone isn't free (not even on contract), but you do get a year's worth of Amazon Prime with every phone (introductory offer).
Amazon is expected to launch it’s first-ever smartphone at an event in Seattle on 18 June.
In terms of technical specs the phone is likely to be placed in the upper-middle slice of devices with reports suggesting a 4.7-inch, 720p screen, a Qualcomm Snapdragon processor and 2GB of RAM.
However, Amazon is also going to be unveiling unknown ‘3D’ capabilities, with some leaks suggesting that Amazon will use four cameras built into the front of the phone to track users’ head movements movements, while others say that built-in sensors will let people navigate the phone by tilting it from side to side.
A teaser video for the device apparently confirms this, with suspiciously delighted customers bobbing their heads about at the unseen gadget. This sort of user interface could help overcome the difficulties of navigating our increasingly large phones with a single hand.
The other main point of interest is likely to be the phone’s price. Unlike Apple, Amazon typically sells its hardware for little or no profit, instead making money from the digital media that owners purchase through its connected stores.
It’s previously lowered costs through integrating ads into the Kindle Fire’s lock screen and a report from the Wall Street Journal suggests that an exclusive deal with AT&T is also in the offing.
However, the proliferation of cheap and capable smartphones (there’s the Moto E, Lumia 630 and carrier-specific devices like the EE Kestrel and Vodafone Smart 4 in the UK) means that a low price is no longer the stand-out selling point it once was.
So what else is there there? It’s more than possible that Amazon could bundle a whole range of premium services with the device. Amazon’s subscription service, Amazon Prime, now offers free one day shipping, e-book downloads, video on demand and music streaming all in a single package.
If Amazon could add some sort of subsidized data package to this (perhaps through the tie-up with AT&T) then it could sell users constant access to all the entertainment they want for a single monthly fee. No fussing around with subscriptions, and all with Amazon's much loved customer service underpinning the user experience.
As it’s unlikely that the company will be able to make a dent in emerging markets (a recent report from Upstream said that only 56 per cent of consumers in these regions recognized the retailer compared to 87 per cent for Google and 85 per cent for Apple) it seems that this could be a good strategy for Amazon, targeting ‘premium’ consumers as aggressively as possible.
This may sound a dangerously unprofitable approach for Amazon, but with the company’s invitation to the 18 June launch including a note from Bezos saying “I think you’ll agree that the world is a better place when things are a little bit different”, it’s entirely possible that the retailing giant is poised to shake things up.

FIFA World Cup 2014 introduced a new technology to the world named 'GOAL CONTROL' which helps referee's to take accurate goal decisions.This technology was developed by a German tech startup company.The designers says that this technology is unhackable and 100% accurate.
The most important part of this technology is 14 high speed camera's placed all around the ground which will capture 500 images per second and helps to create 3-D positioning of the ball. Another important part of this technology is a powerful image processing computer, which process and analyze the images captured by those high speed camera's.The computer, by analyzing those images,tracks the movement of all objects in the ground and filters out everything except football movement.
If the ball passes the goal line ,a signal is send to referee's watch displaying a message "GOAL" with a vibration.All these happens within 1 second when ball passes the line.It cost's around $260,000 to install this technology per stadium and $3,900 per match to operate this technology.
.
In World Cup 2010,England's midfielder Frank Lampard's goal against Germany was disallowed by referee.That was a turning point of the match which led to Germany's victory.This incident caused widespread protest all over the world and that made FIFA president Sepp Blatter to use some kind of technology which helps referee's to take accurate decisions.This paved the way of development of Goal Control technology.

The most rumored phone ever the Motrola X is some what near reality . According to previous leaks Motrola X will be the Android phone to be powered by the next version of Google's Mobile Operating system the Android 5.0 Key Lime Pie. But recent news abut the smart phone is disappointing that the Motrola X will be not be coming with Android 5.0 , but instead Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean
This news will be disappointing to android fans as they will have to wait further more to get hands own the Android 5.0 Key Lime Pie. But we could expect more from Google as the apple has already made their move in 2013 by the launch of iOS 7.

When iOS 7 launched at the WWDC 2013 , many people say that Apple has to borrow more from Android . Indeed there are some elements of iOS 7 looks very similar to Google's operating system,but there are also many things despite the same functionality but the interface of two different platform to compete.
Ui Browser Application (App Drawer ) to left of iOS 7 and Android 4.2 on the right. There are not too many similarities between the two operating systems. Android has fast dock to frequently used applications , however it is located and iOS Homescreen without this component.
The interface of the App store iOS App store and Google's Android Play. Look similar but have so far, is not new to iOS 7
Apple Keyboard now has bright colors, while Android is keeping traditional black cardboard
Interface default calendar application. It can be seen that the iOS 7 to clear and more beautiful, now orange highlight additional full app. Meanwhile , the Android calander app looks slightly bored , the buttons do not stand by .
When viewed by month, nothing is the same :
Interface call logs :
Phonebook application interface , the iOS 7 is not representative of the image of the contact, the Android is available. However , the iOS is the series of characters should start more intuitive
The interface of the phone,rather than between iOS 7 and Android 4.2
Photo Viewer :
When editing mode is on , the iOS 7 with three circular icons like Android , have it reversed :
Here's the Photo app ran cropping features , nothing much alike. :
Notification features in iOS 7 is capable of updating the necessary information to the user, similar to Google Now on Android 4.2 . You can see that although the same features as these two components are not the same thing,but the more obvious Android
Map 7 , Apple iOS and Google Maps on Android . here you are not from Google Maps with each other because the only purpose is to compare the pre-installed app, not the third-party application.
Video Interface :
Interface panorama shooting, which also need to take pictures of the scan width
7 Quick Setting of the iOS and Android here for you. Inside iOS more customization than , for example , the music player , but it is outside the Android notification bar normally and not go very Quick Setting. The iOS has more buttons enable fast as some application glsh lights , browser, computer, camera.
Custom systems are quite similar, and divided into sections with icons related to each other . In fact, since Apple has begun iOS divided like this before.
Interface stopwatch, differ . Personally i like the style more Android , more modern look and cool.
