[Holographic 3D Smartphone] Takee 1 World's First Holographic 3D Smartphone



A Chinese company claims to have produced the world's first smartphone with a holographic interface. It's called the Estar Takee 1, and no, we'd never heard of the company before, either. To generate a holographic image, the Takee phone has four front-facing cameras, which track the user's eyes to create a three-dimensional image. If that sounds familiar, it's the same approach taken by Amazon with its Fire Phone.
Does that make the world's first claim redundant? Maybe not. A promo video, along with the official page advertising the device, all make it seem like the Takee takes its holographic effect and moves it beyond just the interface, and apply it to games, movies, video calls, and a variety of other interesting features. However, without seeing the device in action, it's difficult to know exactly how true all this is.
For example, the video shows the phone "projecting" a 3D image off the screen, whether it's from an app or an incoming video call, which is really exciting. If it can really do it. The footage gives the impression everyone can see the holographic boy on the screen, but if the cameras are only tracking the user's eyes, that probably won't be the case. The same can be said for the explosions, racing cars, and 3D galaxies.
The website, according to translations, talks about several features built into the operating system which makes use of the 3D tech. The cameras can recognize gestures such as those for unlocking the phone or operating the touchscreen, so swipes in the air could be used to navigate through home screens. We've seen something like this on the Galaxy Note 3, and also heard about a similar feature on a future Nokia Windows Phone device.
Takee's phone is otherwise relatively unremarkable. It has a 5.5-inch 1080p screen, a 13-megapixel camera, a 2,500mAh battery, 32GB of memory, and a 2GHz octa-core MediaTek processor with 2GB of RAM. A white and a black version will be joined by one wrapped in 18k gold. An unusual stand for the device can be seen in some pictures, which appears to include a set of speakers. If the splash page on Takee's site is correct, the phone will go on sale later today, but only in China.


Driving and mobile phones ... a disaster?

More and more our life becomes mobile and our smartphone turns to be just another piece of our hand. So the next thing we can research is ... is it dangerous to perform various tasks while .. driving!? Below you can find attached a list of distraction levels while, for example navigating or using voice programs or listening to messages  AND do all that hands-FREE. 

Actually one of the biggest distractions ... is handsfree-Siri ... yes the Apple's "voice servant" that in fact is a major distraction ... Diagram shows that distraction TRIPLES while doing some normal tasks with your mobile phone ... therefore ... be very very cautious.

Nokia Lumia 920



The band new Nokia Lumia 920 is here [announced today in New York], it comes with: NFC communications that allows you to pay bills with your phone, it comes also with the great 8,7 megapixel camera that is great and its able to capture 20 times more light than normal sensors with Carl Zeiss optics, the new 4,5 screen with nice viewing angle, polycarbonated body, windows phone 8 operating system, it comes also with big portions of augmented reality though my sense is that we need time for that to be helpful and contain lots of information. The one thing that i didnt like was the Snapdragon S4 which is a dual core processor 1,5 Ghz... we are in the era of quad core, dudes, plus battery seems small at 2000mh for a multimedia phone. For the end i left the wireless charging which i think it will be a standard for the future and it lead on a new market for wireless docks and speakers.
