Treblab HD77 outdoor speaker
Posted in: Today's Chili
When it comes to portable speakers, there are many different models to choose from. After all, there are different speakers for different kinds of situations, but most outdoor speakers tend to take on a tougher persona than usual for an obvious reason: there is a higher chance of being exposed to the elements, hence a certain degree of water resistance and shock resistance. Treblab has come up with the Treblab HD77 portable speaker that is specially meant to be carried around with you when you indulge in outdoor sports activities, in line with the company’s sports oriented vision.
The Treblab HD77 is definitely stylish to begin with, where it is made out of high quality materials that are also durable. Sporting rubber ends, these will help absorb any kind of potential damage if it is dropped by accident, not to mention guard the inside components against accidental knocks. Never mind a fall, the speaker is well cushioned due to the unique design. In addition, the Treblab HD77 sports a stellar water resistance rate (IPX6) that will further protect the speaker from splashes, meaning you do not have to rush around like a headless chicken should it begin to rain, and neither do you have to be worried about bringing this to the waterfall for a picnic or by the beach when you hang out.
The Treblab HD77 offers powerful 25W stereo sound quality, delivering 360° clear sound regardless of the volume. DualBass technology will even allow it to handle the deepest grooves thrown at it. If you so desire, you can combine a couple of Treblab HD77 speakers into a single True Wireless Stereo system, letting you create a truly enchanting atmosphere. The Treblab HD77 will play nice with iOS, Android, and Windows operating systems, where the user-friendly interface will lets you pair the speaker with a smartphone or laptop quickly without any issues. Using Bluetooth connectivity, it offers a wide signal range of up to 33 feet, while the built-in mic is convenient for accepting calls.
With a 5,200 mAh battery working alongside the PlaXTend Battery energy-saving optimization technology, you can enjoy music for up to 12 hours straight. Expect the Treblab HD77 speaker to arrive with a microUSB charging cable, a 3.5mm AUX cable, a carabiner and a carrying strap.

A couple of months ago, we saw a speed test that compared the iPhone Xs Max against the Galaxy Note 9. For those who haven’t seen it, the iPhone Xs Max pretty much blew the Note 9 out of the water largely thanks to its A12 Bionic processor, and also an upgrade in RAM in which it seemed to play a role in its victory.
So the question is, will the iPhone XR be able to pull off a similar victory? That’s what the folks at PhoneBuff are trying to find out with their latest video, where the iPhone XR is compared against the Galaxy Note 9 in a speed test. Quick note about the iPhone XR – for the most part it shares the same hardware as the iPhone Xs series, but one notable difference is in the RAM where it features 3GB instead of 4GB. This is versus the Note 9 that has a whopping 8GB of RAM.
However as it turns out it seems to be more than capable of holding its own, although it does appear to be a tad slower. For example the first round it took 1 minute and 52 seconds, where the iPhone Xs Max took 1 minute and 49 seconds. The second round also saw the iPhone XR take 46 seconds, whereas the iPhone Xs Max took 43 seconds.
All these delays allowed the Note 9 to play catchup where the final score was a total of 2 minutes and 38.33 seconds for the iPhone XR, and 2 minutes 38.48 seconds for the Note 9, which essentially tied both phones. We have seen in the past that while the A-series chipset does seem to be more powerful, memory management is where iOS seems to stumble, so hopefully this is something Apple will consider in future builds.

Sonos delays Google Assistant integration until 2019, private beta to launch in 2018
Posted in: Today's ChiliSonos today announced that Google Assistant will not be available on its products until at least 2019. The service was supposed to launch in 2018 but the company said in a blog posting it needs a bit more time. Additional information about timing will be released in early 2019, Sonos says.
Eager customers can sign up for a private beta as long as they agree to use the service extensively and respond to surveys within a few days.
Sonos products already have access to Amazon Alexa. Given Sonos’s longstanding notion of supporting all platforms, it makes sense that the company would want customers to have access to both Alexa and Google Assistant. That’s what makes Sonos compelling: They provide the hardware, and owners use whichever software platform they want.
This is clearly critical for Sonos. For a long time, Sonos provided the best-sounding smart speaker system on the market, but Amazon, Google and traditional speaker brands are quickly introducing speakers that provide similar sound quality. To keep up and justify the higher price of its hardware, Sonos needs to offer owners the best sound and the best software, and offering Google Assistant on its products is a key part of that goal.

There is a very, very tiny smartphone out in the wild right now and it goes by the name PALM. This device is unique in its aim to be a “Companion Phone”, a phone that “goes places your smartphone can’t.” If you remember being told by your dad that you didn’t need a smartphone because you already had a computer … Continue reading

Perhaps because they are running scared, the Trump family—and Republicans in general—are going all-in on a campaign of overt racism and white supremacist dog whistles to rally MAGA voters across the country as Tuesday’s midterm elections approach.

Apple recently announced its new iPad Pros which comes with a modified version of the A12 Bionic chipset used in the company’s 2018 iPhone lineup. This comes in the form of the A12X Bionic which features an octa-core design that Apple claims is 35% faster in single-core performance and 90% faster in multi-core performance compared to 2017’s model.
There is also a brand new 7-core custom GPU that apparently gives it Xbox One-like performance. For the most part it sounds like a lot of marketing talk, but based on recently discovered Geekbench scores (via MacRumors), it seems that Apple wasn’t just talking the talk, but they could be walking the walk as well. The scores have found that in terms of performance, the new iPad Pros are actually comparable to the scores of the 2018 15-inch MacBook Pros.
For example it scored 5,025 for single-core performance which beat the base 15-inch MacBook Pro with a 2.2GHz six-core Core i7 processor that scored 4,928. However in terms of multi-core performance, the iPad Pro is still a bit behind at 18,106 versus the MacBook Pros which scored 21,000 and above.
However while impressive, we should point out that benchmark scores don’t necessarily tell the whole story, but given that we’ve been hearing that Apple plans to eventually drop Intel and start using its own A-series chipsets for its Mac computers in the future, these scores are certainly encouraging. In fact last month AnandTech also found that the A12 Bionic in the iPhone Xs came close to desktop-level performance, indicating that a future where we’ll see A-series powered MacBooks might not be too far off.
