Okay you jackasses. We need to fight. Because starting this year the Lenovo Yoga Thinkpad X1—Lenovo’s 360-hinge version of the practically perfect X1 Carbon, is dropping the very light and durable all carbon fiber body and replacing it with heavier and lamer aluminum.
Digital photo frames used to be of interest in the past, although it never really took off in a manner which became a trend. However, this does not mean that there is no way for a somewhat similar idea to take hold of in the future. The all-new Seed Wave from Nixplay has just been announced at CES 2019, and it is surely an interesting proposition for anyone who would like to spruce up their home with something out of the ordinary.
The Seed Wave will introduce a new dimension in both sound and music to its best-selling smart connected photo and video frames, where Nixplay users will then gain the ability to curate music as well as include all-in-one audio to their photos and videos. The Seed Wave is no slouch when it comes to performance, delivering a 13.1-inch widescreen display, all for an asking price of $249.99 apiece.
The design itself is pleasing to the eyes, as it is based on the best-selling Seed range, where Nixplay knows the value of audio quality which is why they have decided to include a couple of premium 5-watt Bluetooth speakers in addition to a dedicated bass and audio amplifier into the Seed Wave. This provides the option for Nixplay users to stream music from their Bluetooth-enabled devices, as they perform the simple task of pairing up a compatible smartphone, tablet or PC to the Seed Wave. Such improved functionality will also empower Nixplay users with the benefits of enhanced audio performance when replaying their video memories, all on a crisp widescreen frame.
With everything that is connected these days coming with an app, the Seed Wave is no different. The Nixplay Mobile App will allow users to enjoy on-the-go functionality and creativity, letting them share photos and videos straight from the app to the Nixplay frame regardless of where they are, as long as the Seed Wave is hooked up to a Wi-Fi network. Not only that, all Seed Wave owners will benefit from 10GB of secure and free online cloud storage to boot, making this an extremely interesting proposition.

Until the day comes when electric car chargers are readily and easily available everywhere, we imagine that it might take some convincing for people to adopt electric cars. However for those with range-anxiety, it seems that Volkswagen might have the answer in the form of a mobile EV charging station.
This is basically an EV charging station that is somewhat portable, which means that it could be transported to various locations where there might not be any EV chargers. For example it could be brought to festivals or events where it could be placed in the parking lot where EVs could charge their cars using it.
Volkswagen’s mobile EV charging station will feature 360kWh charging capacity and 100kW DC quick charging that will be capable of topping up 15 EVs, with an average charging time of 17 minutes. This device while clearly designed to be portable, can also be transformed into a permanent station. It can also be recharged using green energy from solar or wind power, meaning that this battery is as green as it gets, and could potentially help take the burden off electric grids during peak hours, which is a similar concept Tesla envisioned for its home battery.
That being said, there doesn’t seem to be plans to roll it out anytime soon. A pilot program is expected to take place in the town of Wolfsburg in the first half of 2019, and might only begin expanding in 2020.

What is it about people incorporating music into their bathrooms? First, we had the musical instrument bathroom, and now check out this bathroom that has a sink that resembles a DJ’s console. Time to wash up with Sir Suds-A-Lot.
Designed by Gianluca Paludi, these turntable-inspired sinks from Olympia Ceramica will be a hit among wealthy DJs. This collection of bathroom basins is simply called Vinyl, and features sinks that look like a turntable setup. Each circular basin resembles the platter, and the faucet looks like a turntable’s tonearm. The tonearm doesn’t raise and lower like a real one, but maybe it can swivel from side to side. I’m not sure.
This setup includes a countertop with control knobs that regulate the water pressure and temperature. The cabinet has a drawer with a Bluetooth music amplifier and speaker inside as well. Those small holes are just for the speaker. Then there’s the stand that has a lower tier which supports a tempered glass shelf for fresh towels and other stuff. The upper tier has a rigid leather bag to hold smaller things.
The sink is available in either single or double-vanity designs, and there’s also a matching equalizer mirror with LEDs to go with. All those wealthy DJs out there can now have a luxury bathroom to go with their trade.

When it comes to mainstream laptops, they all sort of have the same specs. You get a CPU from Intel (or maybe AMD), memory and storage from Micron, Kingston, WD, or Samsung, and maybe a graphics card from Nvidia. So how else are computer makers supposed to entice potential buyers? Well on Samsung’s latest laptops at…
Samsung just debuted a new gaming notebook at CES, but it’s not stopping there. Its latest Notebook 9 Pro 2-in-1 fixes plenty of the issues with the last model, while delivering a slightly more stylish look. It’s the premium laptop Samsung is tar…
