The new MacBook Air is really just a bigger 12-inch MacBook

Image
Apple took the stage at the Brooklyn Academy of Music in New York City to revive its most beloved laptop brand, the MacBook Air , but it ended up doing so only in name. Frankly, what I saw on stage today was basically a bigger and better version of the 12-inch MacBook . The spirit of the MacBook Air, what that laptop truly represented in the eyes of its fans, was entirely missed in today’s MacBook Air 2018 update. This is not the no-nonsense, affordable entry point into Apple’s wonderful world of computing that the original MacBook Air quickly became after its launch. Nor does this laptop bring forth the full power of Intel mobile processing into a thinner and lighter design than its rivals. Instead, what Apple has shown off looks an awful lot like a 2018 version of the 12-inch MacBook with a larger display, Touch ID and one more Thunderbolt 3 port.  After several years of waiting to see our beloved, approachable MacBook bring that same spirit into the modern era of mobile computi

Apple MacBook Air 2018 vs MacBook Air 2015: just how much has changed?

Image
Apple has heard your cries for a MacBook Air refresh and the company has finally delivered. The MacBook Air 2018 is an interesting device in that it sticks to relatively the same design while completely overhauling the display, processor and inputs. For the most part, the MacBook Air 2018 is a better device than its three-year-old predecessor. However, Apple has made some interesting decisions in keeping certain specs in the past and considerably raising the price on its historically most affordable laptop. Design Apple seems to have taken the principle "if it ain't broke don't fix it" to heart with the design of the MacBook Air 2018, as it looks identical to previous models save for smaller and darker bezels. We can hardly blame Apple for sticking with the knife's edge design of the original MacBook Air. The MacBook Air 2015 and its forbearers are practically timeless products. They all share a design that competitors are still emulating years later – and on

Mac mini 2018 vs Mac mini 2014

Image
Apple has announced the new Mac mini 2018. A new version of the Mac mini has been conspicuous by its absence for a good few years now, and many people were concerned that we might never see an update to Apple's small form factor computer. There was a glimmer of hope a year ago when Apple CEO Tim Cook reassured fans that Apple would still support the Mac Mini , and rumors had been mounting that we might see a Mac mini in 2018. And sure enough, Apple has revealed the Mac mini 2018. So how does it compare to the previous version, which was released way back in 2014? So, should you buy a Mac mini 2018? Read on to find out. Design The Mac mini 2014 kept the same compact design of the Mac minis that came before it, with a small, square-ish metal design that measures 7.7 x 7.7 x 1.4 inches (19.7 x 19.7 x 3.6cm) and weighs 2.6 pounds (1.19kg). It looks like the Mac mini 2018 is pretty similar design-wise – we'll find out more when we have hands-on time with it, but the new Mac

Boo! Halloween season is upon us, and the braver among you will be searching for the best horror video games to give you a proper scare.

MacBook Air 2018 news and release date

Image
We’ve been waiting for a new MacBook Air for literally years now, but luckily, Apple has finally announced the follow-up to its most popular laptop. Gone is the ancient hardware design and the dated internals – everything feels like it should in 2018. But, how does the MacBook Air 2018 differ from its aged predecessor? Well, with modern components, it’s much more powerful, jumping up three processing generations. You should be able to get all your work done without breaking a sweat. The display is also sharper, getting rid of that 900p display in favor of a much more modern Retina display. And, now that the long-awaited MacBook Air 2018 is arriving soon, we thought it would be the perfect time to dive into everything that this new laptop can do. So, let’s get to it.  Cut to the chase What is it? A hopeful sequel to Apple’s most popular laptop When is it out?

Telefonica reveals its rulebook for AI

Telefonica has become one of the first major technology companies to reveal exactly what guidelines it will place on the use of AI technology. The Spanish telecoms giant and parent company of O2 has released its Principles of Artificial Intelligence, laying out how it plans to utilise the technology to ensure a positive impact on society.  Promising "integrity and transparency" in its design and development of AI technology, Telefonica's rules include the company's ongoing stance on areas such as equality, transparency, clarity, privacy, and security. What is AI? Everything you need to know AI rules “We’re concerned about the possible use of artificial intelligence for the creation or dissemination of fake news, addiction to technology, and the possible reinforcement of social bias in the algorithms in general”, said José María Álvarez-Pallete, Chairman & CEO of Telefónica. “These phenomena undermine the trust of our customers, our most valuable asset, a

EA reveals Project Atlas, its grand vision for the future of cloud gaming

EA has been outlining its vision for the future of gaming, and the company is gazing skywards, to the cloud , and “transformative technologies” like AI, to build Project Atlas, loosely described as an integrated “engine + services” game development platform. So yes, prepare yourself for a lot of buzzwords, but the broad idea is to build a cloud platform that delivers far more immersive gaming experiences than we have today. In other words, game environments that evolve, so when you come back to the virtual world the next day, things may have changed based on the input of other players, or AI elements, and indeed the real world may have an impact on the virtual one. EA envisions the (Frostbite) game engine and game services (such as online matchmaking and the social side of the experience) all being rolled into one cloud platform, with the game running on an EA server, and folks able to log in and play from any device, anywhere.

Panasonic HomeX smart hub wants to control your whole home (fridge included)

Image
Panasonic has put everything from televisions to kitchen appliances and air conditioning units in our homes. But we now live in a connected age where we expect our devices to speak to each other, working with us as well as for us.  Aided by control platforms like Amazon’s Alexa and Google Assistant, we’ve seen the smart home market grow exponentially, and now Panasonic wants a bite of the connected pie. After a sneak peek at CES 2018, Panasonic’s HomeX controller has been fully unveiled during the company’s centenary celebration at the Panasonic Innovation Forum in Tokyo, Japan. The HomeX is a smart home control panel that is integrated into your home, with a touchscreen display giving you access to all connected devices in your home. Where HomeX separates itself from its competitors is its ability to talk to a range of home appliance devices, each of which can then talk to each other. A Panasonic smart fridge can tell the HomeX what recipes can be made with its contents, with the
