Given Philips’ addiction to LED lighting on both its Ambilight TVs and its hue wireless lightbulbs, it’s a surprise it took the company so long to cook up the Ambilight+hue system in the new Elevation TV. Announced back in July, the 60-inch Elevation builds on the existing Ambilight system by hooking in the rest of […]
Clearly, the big thing at IFA 2013 for TV manufacturers this year is curved televisions. So far, we’ve seen curved OLED sets and curved LED TVs at the show. LG has rolled out what it claims to be the world’s largest curved screen OLED TV called simply enough the 77-inch Ultra HD Curved OLED TV. […]
Currently, the biggest curved curved ultra-high resolution OLED TV tops out at a mere 55 inches—but LG is shaking things up with this monstrous 77-inch creature.
Second-tier TV manufacturer Hisense is on hand at IFA 2013 and it’s showing off its massive 110-inch 4K LED backlit TV. This appears to be the same TV that was shown off at CES 2013 earlier this year. Hisense isn’t making that big a deal out of the TV and possibly more interesting than the […]
Lenovo / Vodafone’s Smart Tab III shows up in 10- and 7-inch versions at IFA (hands-on)
Posted in: Today's ChiliThere are always a few treats to be had at Vodafone’s IFA booth. This year, the company was showing off the successor to the Smart Tab II — a device we happened to first glimpse at last year’s event. The Lenovo-designed Vodafone Smart Tab III comes in two flavors, a 1280 x 800 10-inch model and a 1024 x 600 seven-inch version. Both devices are running Android 4.2.2, with promised upgrades to Kit Kat when the time comes. The models we saw here in Berlin were also running Bild, a skin that aims to make app discovery easier from within the OS itself, thanks in part to its clustering together titles in categories like Social and Travel — of course, that all makes things a bit tougher to find the first time you boot things up. We did manage to locate the settings panel eventually, though.
There’s a 1.2GHz processor inside of both, along with 1GB of RAM and 16GB of built-in storage, which is expandable via a microSD slot. Both slates also feature front and rear facing cameras, the latter of which clocks in at five megapixels. Both are pretty solidly designed, with fairly slim profiles. The seven-incher has a front-facing speaker grille and the 10-inch version has two on the top of its textured backing. Also, in spite of Lenovo’s input, the company hasn’t branded either device at all. Instead, there’s a single Vodafone logo smack dab in the center of both tablets’ backs. %Gallery-slideshow83279%
