图片
The ASUS ZenFone C has just been unboxed  here , but now we also get a price tag for it. Apparently, the product will cost a mere $94 on the Taiwanese market, which is a very appealing price tag. This model runs Android 4.4 KitKat with the Zen UI on top and uses an Intel Atom Z2520 processor. It comes with colourful plastic case and upfront the lower bezel has the typical circular ASUS pattern. Its CPU is clocked at 1.2 GHz and other specs include a 4.5 inch FWVGA display with an IPS LCD panel, a 0.3 MP CMOS camera and a 5 MP back shooter. The ZenFone C is a dual SIM unit, with Bluetooth 4.0 compatibility, 8 GB of storage, 1 GB of RAM, a 2100 mAh battery and 3 color choices, among which there are red and black. For those of you who don’t know, the Zenfone C is a version of the Zenfone 4, that keeps its design, but bumps down the specs. via  blogofmobile

Lenovo Yoga Tablet 2 (8-inch) review

PROS A unique design that stands out (literally) from the crowd High quality front-facing speakers Solid graphics performance CONS Oddly placed rear cam with less-than-great image quality The lack of an application drawer will be a turn-off for some users 7.4 . The Tablet 2 8-inch doesn’t offer the best specifications, build quality or software experience on the market, but for the price, this tablet offers a unique design, a great screen, and a decent gaming experience. While Lenovo hasn’t been the the most prominent hardware manufacturer in the United States, the company has been making great strides to change that. From  joining forces with Ashton Kutcher  to to creating a growing line of Android and Windows tablets, Lenovo is showing the rest of the world that they have something to offer. Just in the later half of 2014, we’ve seen the company launch high-end yet affordable tablets like the  Yoga 10 HD+ , the  TAB S8 , the Yoga Tablet 2 Plus, as well a...

Overseas Filipinos can now pay for families’ bills back home using Bitcoin

图片
Rebit , the Bitcoin remittance vertical of Philippine startup  Satoshi Citadel Industries  (SCI), has launched a new service that allows overseas Filipinos workers (OFWs) to play an active role in managing the finances of their families back home. Aside from sending remittances, Filipinos abroad can now directly pay for their families’ bills and load their mobile phones with prepaid credit using Bitcoin via Rebit. Rebit has over 91 bill payment options and five “e-load” providers on its network. SCI CEO and co-founder John Bailon says this targeted remittance service will safeguard against possible misuse of remittances, a common problem encountered by OFWs who are breadwinners of their families. “The heart of the struggle with Filipino financial freedom has always been reckless spending. Rebit’s aim with targeted remittances is to eliminate the worries of our OFWs, who are often more financially literate than their families back home,” he explains. Remittances worth about US$...

Pre-orders opened on January 26. India was less welcoming to the Moto X, but the phone still remains a strong player there. It took five months for sales to hit the one million mark in India, and it has  sold a total of three million units  since it launched there one year ago.

Google self-driving car concept

Google self-driving car concept If we can believe the reports,  Google  is about to put together their own car service that will compete with ride sharing services like  Uber  and Lyft. But there won’t be any drivers to contend with, we’re looking at a fleet of Google’s  self driving cars . This news comes out of  Bloomberg , reporting that Uber executives have heard from Google of these plans. Google has been a major backer of Uber, having invested more than $258 million into the ride sharing company. As such, Google has a seat on the board at Uber, from whom Uber has heard of Google’s plans for their  driverless car initiative . Looking at Google’s autonomous car program, this move makes sense. Google could attempt to sell their cars to us as individuals, requiring us to jump through hoops for registration and insurance. Instead, a  ride sharing service  leaves the cars in Google’s control and responsibility, which would be great for us, at...
