2014-01-12
welcome back to android weekly my name is Jace and to consider that this past week at CES was busy would make me master of the obvious I mean come on we had Joshua get so excited he starts dancing in the little show and he finishes with downward dog and then we had Michael Bay the big Hollywood director gets stage fright is it uh that uh how he was experiencing movies she's no sorry I'm sorry and our own commander-in-chief Darcy got so excited about wearable tech that he told John a tech Buffalo to start wearing biometric nipples the biometric sensors tell your wife and maybe we can know how your heart like it like the other biometric sensors yeah I do not yet have two biometric nipples but perhaps hmm I could make that work all right guys just a little disclaimer here before we start and that is that android authority covered a lot of information that happened last week at CES and i could not possibly review all that just in one show it would take far too long but what I have done in the show notes below is provide a plethora of links to some great stories that transpired over last week at Consumer Electronics Show be sure to check that out today I just cover things that tickled my pickle let's see yes so the new Samsung tablets we saw at CES look bigger gorgeous and have a revamped TouchWiz which is gonna make a lot of you just did ii with happiness touch me touch me touch me touch me now many people may be confused about samsung's new naming conventions for their tablets there's no pros and tab pros and what's the difference well so far the biggest difference is that the tab pros do not have a stylus or s pen while the note pros do the revamped TouchWiz which is now being called magazine UX looks fantastic and for me just my personal opinion here is one of the most exciting things to come at a CES this year it's the beginning of tablets showing that they can be seriously considered as devices for professionals and not just content consumption devices moving on to wearable tech and I promise you no nipples will be harmed in the filming of this episode now as expected pebble announced the launch of pebble steel which is pebbles second generation SmartWatch it is designed to meet the needs of consumers who wanted a SmartWatch with better build quality while the pebble steel offers the same features at the previous SmartWatch including five to seven hour battery life waterproof features android and iOS support the new SmartWatch is thinner and it's made of forged machine stainless steel furthermore the display is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass and the lens includes an anti fingerprint coating moving on to Intel Smart earbuds Intel Smart earbuds provides biometric and fitness information to the user via a smartphone application the device can measure heart rate and pulse while still delivering full stereo audio and is powered via the headset jack that's plugged into the smartphone or tablet as for fitness a companion app on the smart device can keep track of run distance and calories burned now Intel's product has no commercial name yet and this is just a mock-up so will be interested to see what OMS can produce Lee New Year moving onto news about Nvidia's innovation so nvidia announced the next-gen tegra processor called the Tegra k1 and it is a significant spec boost particularly when it comes to graphic prowess the new Tegra k1 features the impressive 192 core Kepler GPU delivering what Nvidia claims will bring next gen console gaming graphics to mobile devices now this got Tim Sweeney of Epic Games so excited he said this we can take absolutely anything that runs on PC or a high-end console and run it on Tegra I didn't think we'd be at this level on mobile for another three or four years know whether that's true or just hype the Tegra k1 does have impressive specs thanks for watching a droid beeps my name is Jace and if you want all found this helpful kindly give us a like and subscribe comment below tell us what you thought happy to connect with you here on Google+ or Twitter you don't want to forget about my brother's nandroid Josh Joe in the tech ninja Kevin and Darcy Darcy don't put those on your nip oh oops that's gonna leave a mark bye
