HTC has given us yet another great phone with Android Gingerbread, but the main difference between this and HTC’s previous offerings in that its 3D capable. Yes, it can play 3D content as well as record video in it. Read on for the specs and a few more shots.
The Nintendo 3DS is almost here, the two-screen handheld that lets you play games in true 3D without any glasses. Nintendo’s handheld already went on sale February 26 in Japan, then on Friday March 25 in Europe, and it finally celebrates its U.S. launch this Sunday, March 27. Read on for more information ,the launch video and some cool pics.
The instant you put the 3DS in your hands, you recognize the feeling. It’s a DS through and through, but maybe a touch lighter than the DSi we have seen before.
In our 2-minute demo, we weren’t able to actually play anything. Instead, Nintendo had the demo units (tethered to models) running through a loop of interactive 3D images of famous characters like Mario and Yoshi. Head-on, the new screen is bright, colorful and, yes, 3D. You look a bit more into the screen than the images jump out, like a window—an effect that’s surprisingly natural, actually—until you view the screen from the side. Anywhere but head-on, the 3D effect fails completely and the colors wash out a bit.
MSI is finally gearing up for the big leagues. With their latest offering they are certainly looking like a company to watch out for. This time they are not offering an a power saving netbook but a fully featured All In One Desktp and guess what its 3D enabled. The sizeable all-in-one packs Core i7 guts and ATI Mobility Radeon HD5730 graphics behind a 24-inch, 1080p, 120Hz display. It’s the first AIO to integrate THX Studio Pro audio, and one of the first to embrace USB 3.0. All this for a scintillating amount of $1800 and this includes the glasses as well.
Panasonic will next week unveil a camcorder for consumers that is capable of recording images in 3D.
The camcorder, details of which are not yet available, will be shown at a Tokyo news conference scheduled for July 28, the company said Wednesday. It will be the first 3D-capable camcorder for the consumer market from a major manufacturer.
Panasonic and other major consumer electronics makers have been pushing 3D televisions in the last few months as the first professional 3D content begins to appear on Blu-ray Disc and via television networks.
The next target for the companies is products that allow consumers to create their own 3D content.
The 3D camera will be Panasonic’s second after it launched a professional model earlier this year.
The AG-3DA1 looks like one of Panasonic’s existing semi-professional camcorders with a bulbous twin lens assembly in place of the normal single lens. It records full high-definition images to SD memory cards and is available as a built-to-order product from the company for US$21,000.
The camera that will be unveiled next week is about the same size as a conventional consumer-use camcorder and is expected to cost much less than the professional model.
