BQ Aquaris E4.5 Ubuntu Edition does things differently to Android and iPhone

2015-02-11
five or something new I'm richer try no mercy net that lists the BQ aquaris e5 Ubuntu Edition and a bun - is a new operating system that does things a little bit differently so one of the interesting things about the bun - is that it doesn't do much with the hardware buttons it's all done on the screen so this is a version of the phone that's an existing Android model but with a plenty software in it so we don't actually have these Android familiar icons in the finished version it doesn't have a camera button for example it just has volume buttons and a power button on the side so the main difference between a Bunty and Android and other types of smartphone operating system is that it will necessarily have apps it has scopes and they're like home screens where you can have different sources and services and publications or pull into one place so for example here's your today scope which shows you the weather your calendar appointments and recent messages and recent news or what's xx trending on Twitter that kind of thing so here's your new scope which has the headlines from different sources and different publications so you can see what's going on in the world and the nother scope is nearby which has little location services so for example you pull in restaurant reviews if you were hungry if you are on the move you could see traffic updates and that and the weather and that kind of thing one of the clever things about scopes is they combined sources that you might have had to keep in different apps on other phones so for example in the Photos app you've got the photos that you've taken on your camera itself then you've also got your Instagram photos on the same page so as well as being kind of home screens you can have individual branded scopes made by publishers and services so here in the music service we can see the music scope we can see seven digital SoundCloud Songkick YouTube and so on and if you want you can add lots of different sources Grooveshark YouTube and all the rest and then when you click on individual one you will go through to the actual branded scope so for example here's the song kick one allows you to see events in song kick made by the publisher themself so winter is controlled by swiping in from different sides of the screen for example if you swipe in from the top you can control all your settings like Network brightness battery settings all that kind of thing if you swipe in from the right you can move through all the apps and scopes that you have open at the moment swipe the ones that you don't want and quickly open up the ones that you aren't open swipe in from the left for the launcher which has all your favorite apps in there for quick access or you can go straight back to the home escape and if you swipe up from the bottom you can manage your scopes and change the order they appear and show which ones you want to show so another clever feature is that when you get a new text message it will appear in the notifications at the top so you can simply tap on it and reply straight away so this first of one two phone is going on sale in a series of flash sales throughout 2015 I'm rich at home and this is the BQ aquaris e5 point five of them to addition
