Huawei Ascend P8 vs Ascend P7 - The flagship phones from China

In the highly competitive smartphone market, the China-based smartphone maker Huawei made its name with the Ascend series. The brand launched the Huawei Ascend P6 in 2013 as the world’s slimmest smartphone at that time. However, after the Ascend P6, the vendor lost the interest in the race of slimmest devices. The Ascend P6 was followed by the 6.5mm thick Huawei Ascend P7 in 2014.

This year, the company has launched the all-metal Huawei Ascend P8 measuring ultra-thin 6.4mm around the waist. So, where does the Ascend P8 stands against the Ascend P7? Let’s compare their features to find out more. 

Huawei Ascend P8 vs Ascend P7: The successor vs predecessor

Design
The 2014 Huawei flagship, the Ascend P7 sports a slim 6.5mm body with a textured aluminium frame on the sides. At the rear panel, the phone offers a flat pane of toughened glass. Another highlight of the device is its curvy bottom edge and textured finish at the back. The Ascend P8 on the other hand flaunts a super slim 6.4mm waistline and is made out of aerospace-grade aluminium. Overall, in terms of design, the unibody metal Ascend P8 certainly looks better than the Ascend P7. 

Display and OS
The Huawei Ascend P7 and P8, both the smartphones offer outstanding displays. The Ascend P7 is equipped with a 5-inch full HD screen bearing a pixel density of 441 pixels per inch. The Ascend P8 offers a slightly bigger 5.2-inch full HD display with a pixel density of 424 pixels per inch. Overall, both devices offer almost similar media viewing experience with full HD screen panels. 

Configuration
The Huawei Ascend P7 utilises a 1.8GHz quad-core HiSilicon Kirin 910T processor, which is further supported by a Mali 450 MP4 GPU and 2GB of RAM. The Huawei Ascend P8 on the other hand is powered by the next-gen 64-bit octa-core HiSilicon Kirin 835 processor, aided by a meaty 3GB of RAM. So, the Ascend P8 clearly offers better performance than its predecessor. 

Storage capacity & Software
The Huawei Ascend P7 comes in a single variant with 16GB of internal memory, which is further expandable up to 64GB via a microSD card slot. The Ascend P8 on the other hand comes in 16GB and 64GB flash memory variants, which can be further increased by a nanoSIM/microSD combo slot. On the software front, the Ascend P7 runs Android KitKat, but hasn’t yet received Lollipop as of now. The Ascend P8 gets another advantage here as it runs Android Lollipop out of the box. 

Camera
Talking about the camera specs, the Ascend P7 and P8, both are equipped with 13MP primary shooters and 8MP secondary snappers. However, Huawei is touting the Ascend P8 as the world’s first smartphone to offer a 13MP camera sensor that captures light in red-green-blue-white, resulting in DSLR-quality images thanks to an independent image processor. 

Connectivity & Battery
Connectivity features are almost similar including 4G LTE support, 3G, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0, micro-USB, NFC, and A-GPS. However, the Ascend P8 is loaded with the company’s new Signal+ technology with two antennas to avoid data or network signal issues. Talking about the battery, the Ascend P7 is fueled by a 2,500mAh unit that delivers 14 hours of talk time. The Ascend P8 is backed by a 2,680 battery that promises to last 2.3 days on mixed usage. 

Conclusion
Coming to the verdict, the Huawei Ascend P7 is still a decent offering with a full HD display, a powerful processor, 4G LTE support, and decent camera specs. However, its successor, the Huawei Ascend P8 is certainly is great upgrade over its predecessor. The phone offers a bigger display, higher performance, better camera features, and a bigger battery. Coming to the prices, the Ascend P7 is currently retailing online for around Rs 22,800. The Ascend P8 is yet to reach India, and is expected to retail for around Rs 33,500.

Google Glass passes into the hands of Intel

Intel will provide the next version of Google Glass electronic stuffing. The new device is expected next year.

According to the newspaper The Wall Street Journal, citing its own sources, Intel will replace the Texas Instruments as a supplier of mobile processors for augmented reality glasses Google Glass. The company plans to promote Glass in hospitals, in the workplace, as well as create new applications gadget.

Immediately after its debut in 2012, the online plug-glasses Google have been criticized by privacy advocates, and the public perceived them as a device for nerds. Of greatest interest to the Glass demonstrated professional community.

Now Google in conjunction with software developers program develops Glass at Work to expand the use of its digital points in medicine, construction and manufacturing. Analysts have called the initiative Intel positive signal not only for Glass, but also for wearable devices in general.

If the partners are promoting Google glasses in a professional environment, the Internet giant sees them primarily as a consumer device. On the part of the Google Glass at Work program employs fewer people than in the main project Glass, the newspaper said.

Measured power - The flagship Sony Xperia Z3

 

 

Smartphone Xperia Z3, was released six months after its predecessor Z2, was presented simultaneously with a younger model Z3 Compact. Both devices have received the same hardware platform, but as it was reflected in their work? Compact model has proved itself quite well. We found, as shown by itself is the same "filling" in a large body of the flagship device.

Earlier Sony announced that will produce the flagship model in step with the development of technology, which led to quite often come out of new devices. How it affected the quality of the models? In progenitors changes were noticeable on display - in Z2 it is much better than the Z1. At the same time improved the camera interface, expanded communications capabilities. Exterior remained a recognizable, undergoing minimal transformation.

What can stand the new flagship? Certainly - concise, size, technological improvements and design changes. The rest of the Z3 became a specimen of rationality, not jerks making performance flagship model and its compact version, and perhaps even causing the same effect as Z3 Compact, with its appearance.

Design

With resemblance to the Xperia Z2, Z3 body found refined shapes and minimalist colors. Plastic in it and felt completely stopped. Metal frame, combined with front and rear panels of shockproof polycarbonate glass left the place only on the rounded corners of the device - it strengthened hull and redistributed the impact force during a fall. Because color inserts are identical frame, understand what they are made, seemingly difficult. Outwardly, it looks smart and even integrally strictly comfortable in the hand thanks to the rounded edges and lumpy metal, and its dimensions make up 146,5 × 72 × 7,3 mm with a weight of 152 g - it is on all sides smaller and lighter than its predecessor.

Between functional connectors on the side of the company's engineers have produced again castling. Left under the cap is a connector for connecting the microUSB. Just below it is a connector for connection to the dock. Under the cap are located right sidewall pockets nanoSIM- and microSD-cards. This design differs from both connectors compact version and its predecessor Z2, although raises no objections and usability is not inferior. Do not like us only flimsy pocket nanoSIM - for removal require nails or tweezers, and handle it very carefully. Fortunately, the replacement card - not such a part of the procedure, and for users of several operators provided a version with two SIM-cards.

Both versions of the flagship protected by the standards IP 65/68, their covers are made of metal and have a rubber sealing strip. The case is assembled well, parts fit precisely, and there is no backlash slightest hint. "Bathing" smartphone, we did not, but doubt that he can do snorkeling "self" and take a mud bath, we did not have.

The rest of the body parts were left unchanged. Round button power control and volume control under it are in the center, right sides. On the one hand, their location is convenient as falls under the thumb of the right hand, the other - there is criticism: to the management of one arm to reach the upper-right corner of the screen, it is necessary to shift the phone in the palm below. In our view, the location of the controls closer to the top of the sidewalls seems logical, especially in devices with considerable size. Two-position camera button is on the usual place, claims it does not have.
