LaCie Sphere Is A Stylish Looking Hard Drive

LaCie Sphere Is A Stylish Looking Hard Drive[CES 2014] External hard drives and USB flash drives are something we don’t necessarily think too much about in terms of design. However LaCie is a company that has not been shy about styling their products as we have seen them collaborate with Porsche on hard drives before, which is why it is not surprising, and somewhat of a delight, to see LaCie announce a new external hard drive in the form of the Sphere. As the name and the photos indicate, this is a hard drive that is atypical in design and spherical in shape, courtesy of a design collaboration with Christofle, a French luxury brand that is known for their work with silver.

    LaCie Unveils Fuel External Hard Drive For iOS And Mac[CES 2014] If there is a drawback to using iOS devices is that storage is usually fixed, meaning that if you chose a 16GB iPhone but ran out of space, you’re pretty much stuck unless you decide to buy a new phone with a larger capacity. Granted one could turn to cloud alternatives such as iCloud, Dropbox, or stream music instead of storing it on their iDevices, but where’s the fun in that? For those who don’t mind carrying a little extra, LaCie has announced the Fuel external hard drive designed for iPhones, iPads, and Mac computers in mind, basically giving iOS and Mac users an additional 1TB of storage.

    The Ego LS Is A Wearable Camera With 4G LTE Connectivity

    The Ego LS Is A Wearable Camera With 4G LTE Connectivity[CES 2014] Cameras designed to be worn and used in sports is not new. We’ve seen many of them in the past, such as the GoPro which is a pretty popular name when it comes to such devices. Well if you’re in the market for something similar for your next action-packed holiday or event, perhaps Liquid Image might be a company worth considering, especially with the announcement of the first 4G LTE enabled wearable and mountable camera in the form of the Ego LS, which the company expects to demonstrate come CES 2014 which will be taking place in a few days’ time.

    The Ego LS, in terms of being a camera, is more or less standard and has the ability to record videos in WQVGA quality at 30fps, as well as being able to snap photos in low or high resolution. What makes the Ego LS particularly unique and interesting is that it comes with a 4G LTE module that allows users to hook onto 4G LTE networks (requires a SIM) in which they are able to utilize their internet connectivity to transfer videos and photos onto their mobile device through an accompanying app, as well as the ability to deliver a live video stream of their footage as it takes place.

    Of course for those who don’t see the need for 4G LTE, Liquid Image has a regular model which does come with WiFi and Bluetooth, essentially offering the same features, just minus the convenience of a mobile network. Both the LTE and non-LTE versions will be priced the same at $199.99, with the main difference being its battery life, with the LTE model expected to use more battery. The Liquid Image Ego LS camera will be available come June 2014.
