Closer to a 16:9 ratio than before, the iPhone 5 is now better for viewing films on, with 44% better colour saturation, with touch integrated into the display to reduce glare in sunlight.
  • 22% smaller and more energy efficient than the previous chip, apps can now load as much as 2x faster. Console-quality graphics will be possible, according to EA's Rob Murray, who demoed the Real Racing 3 app game on the new iPhone 5.
  • iOS 6 is the onboard operating system, which adds another row of apps on each homescreen. 

  • iPhone 5 has a Longer screen, making for five app rows, plus the app dock on the bottom.It also introduces Apple's own Maps app to the iPhone as a native. 3D imagery and satellite imagery too. Passbook, letting you use your iPhone as a ticketing system, including airline flights, was also demoed. iTunes too gets a major revamp, with more ways to buy and streamlined track viewing and playback options.
  • Camera is still 8MP backside illuminated sensor as with the iPhone 4S, but now with a dynamic low-light mode for better night time shooting to add to the 5-element lens and f/2.4 aperture. There's also a panorama shooting mode natively built into the camera app for the first time, with a 360-degree shot resulting in a giant 28 megapixel image. The A6 chip allows for faster photo capture too, as well as a smart filter for better colour matching and reduced noise. Share Photo Streams allow you to share photos with pals, and receive messages on your snaps too.
  • Video capture remains at 1080p, with improved video stabilisation and facial recognition added. The front facing camera also jumps to 720p, which makes for sharper FaceTime calls, which can now be made over cellular networks too, as well as Wi-Fi.
  • A new "Lightning" connector is now introduced, that's 80% smaller, helping to keep the overall design smaller, as well as offering faster data transfers, and is "reversible", meaning it can be plugged in when either facing the front or back.

NEW M CLASS 2012

  14. June 2011 08:39 WhatsHot

How time passes so quickly! I still remember the second generation of the M class when it came out in 2006 and how people were fascinated by its new modern shape.

     

BUT the third generation of the M class for 2012 is a MASSIVE Evolution!

     

As usual, Mercedes always amazes its customers with every new generation of its cars so the MAJOR changing doesn’t only include the exterior, but it also has many developed features starting from the frontal pumper ending to the rear pumper.  

     

"Luxury" is always expected from such an automotive company, but imagine how it feels when you ride a 4*4 car merged into a super premium saloon!  

     

The frontal of the new M represents the new language of the modern Mercedes’s cars. The wide frontal grill with the huge slogan of the tri-star and the frontal headlights gives the car the pride and the attractiveness.

     

The slightly horizontal lines of the sides show modernity and newness. 

     

From the rear, the tail lights look similar to the E class’s rear lights. You might feel the car is a bit small once you look at the back side, but it is not small as you may think!

     

For the interior, the designers have given the new crossover a more upscale interior than ever before. The center now stack sits up high with the new automaker’s latest switchgear. The gear lever remains on the steering column, which frees up more central console space for a wide and flexible storage bin.

     

As for the rear seats, the passengers also will enjoy more spacious comparing to the old M class. However, Mercedes will drop off the V6 350 from the markets. Later, the V8 will arrive likely as a 2013 model and the AMG engines will be arriving on the market in 2014.

[BLender Announcement]: The car will be upon request starting from September 2011.

Cocoa Room Experience!

  12. June 2011 06:29 WhatsHot

Hey guys, Today, we paid COCOA ROOM a visit! | TIME:8:45 AM | Temp: ERROR!

     

We were really happy! there was no one there! and we wanted a little bit of peace and quite!... We went to sit on the table at the far end corner.. but the minute we sat on the table, the waiter came and told us "Sorry guys, the table was already reserved" WHAT!!!! RESERVED at 8:45!??

     

Anyways, We went to sit somewhere else and asked the waiter to help us out with the menu! suddenly i started to hear voices, and every 10 minutes there seem to be more and more voices! ... i turned around and BOOM! at 10AM the place was FULL!! amazingly loaded with girls! I was the only hot guy there! i mean the only "guy" there, thats what made me "hot" lol

     

I took some pics of our orders! Although, i still didn't memorize the names of the orders yet!

     

The Haloom & Cherry Tomatos was fine but there was a lot of oil and butter on it!

     

The "Eggs Benediict" tasted good!

     

I forgot the name of this order, but i think its "Kuwaiti Scrambled Eggs", something like that...

     

 "SWEET MOTHER PEARL!!" You gotta try The BROWNIE PAN CAKES! Best thing ever! They WERE SO DELICIOUS!

[BLender Whisper]: We can't judge Cocoa Room from our first experience, but we loved their Sweet Tooth Section!

Ford's Safety Seat

  9. June 2011 08:24 WhatsHot

Have you ever thought of having a HEART ATTACK?    

     

 I mean haven't you thought of having a heart attack or a stroke while driving your car?. Well, in life, everything is expected and no one knows when he/she will die... I believe that we should all take better precaution for our own safety! 

    

Unfortunately, every single day, the world loses people in many different ways and specially people who die from heart attack that occurs while driving their cars. We don’t want to freak you out, but today the blender will be talking about the latest technology that is created by Ford. 

    

The mother company of Ford is now in the process of developing a new driver’s seat can detect and control the driver’s health when the car is in motion. This new technology, which is found at the driver’s seat, can discover whether the driver will be having a heart attack or if he’s losing his concentration on the road due to some health issues.  

     

Once the system finds any abnormality in the way of driving the car, it will control the car and switch it to the safe mode to avoid any accidents. There also will be small pads on the back of the driver’s seat to make sure that the heart is beating in a proper way.

     

Once the pads and censors sense an abnormality in the beating of the driver’s heart, the car will be connected directly to the Ford Emergency Department so then the driver will quickly receive help.

Ford didn’t mention or announce the date of releasing or having this new feature in their cars, but the whole project is now accomplished ready to be out in the market!

[Blender whisper: THAT IS AWSOME!, seems like we've got us a hospital on wheels!
