Toshiba Satellite L600-15S Battery

Your viewing angles are unlimited between zero and 135°, like a laptop. Whichever way you put the Slim Book together, you can place it the angle of your choice. ZAGG claims the battery lasts up to two years with normal usage. I didn’t test it out for two years, but in the three weeks I tested it out daily, I never charged it nor ran out of power.The keyboard is backlit. You can adjust the backlight through three different brightness levels and seven different colors.

Bryan and I both liked using the Slim Book. I found it so laptop-like that my fingers kept trying to locate the trackpad. I had to keep reminding myself that I was using an iPad and could touch the screen. The keyboard looks so much like my Macbook’s keyboard, and functionality is much the same.While I found myself primarily using the case and keyboard attached in the traditional laptop mode, I like having the option to pull them apart and use the iPad handheld in its case. It’s also nice to be able to put the iPad in "backwards” for video-watching or even folding it flat backwards for reading a book. The keyboard has two small tabs which fit into the matching holes in the case.

I am notoriously klutzy, and I dropped my iPad while in the Slim Book once or twice. While the case did come detached from the keyboard, both the Slim Book and the iPad came out unscathed.Bryan added, "The 12.9-inch iPad Pro is expensive, and it’s important to protect this investment with a cover. Though Apple’s Smart Keyboard works beautifully, its casing is flimsy, at best. The ZAGG case is durable, and I love the keyboard.”

The original Samsung Galaxy Note was still over a year away when Dell launched the Streak 5 in 2010. There had been other large form factor phones before — blurring the lines between tablet and smartphone — but the Dell Streak was the first Android phablet. It had a 5-inch, touchscreen display with 800 x 480-pixel resolution, decent battery life, and a 5-megapixel camera.
A lot of the initial reviews were actually pretty positive, with many reviewers seeing the attraction of a bigger screen on a phone, but the Streak suffered from some serious performance issues. It ran Android 1.6 Donut, later upgraded to 2.2 Froyo. The immature version of Android was less than ideal for a screen this size, and Dell’s failure to build good software customizations on top essentially killed its chances of taking off.
Motorola Atrix

5 phones ahead of their time
Starting 2011 in determined fashion, Motorola was churning out innovative new Android smartphones like no other manufacturer on the market. However, looking at the lineup — which also saw the Xoom, Droid Bionic, and Cliq 2 released alongside the Atrix 4G — you get the impression it was throwing everything at the wall and hoping something would stick.
The Motorola Atrix 4G had an attractive design with a 4-inch, 960 x 540-pixel display. It also had plenty of raw power under the hood, but it was the fingerprint sensor and the innovative WebTop platform that really stood out. There were four different dock accessories, allowing you to convert the Atrix into the brains of a laptop, hook it up via HDMI with an IR remote control, or use it to navigate in a vehicle.
With the high price of docks and less than perfect performance, the Atrix never hit the big time, but it was certainly influential. Fingerprint sensors are now ubiquitous and Microsoft is still trying to nail the PC/phone crossover with Continuum. Read our full review.

The Symbian-based Nokia 808 PureView was unveiled at MWC in February 2012. With a 41-megapixel camera, it took mobile photography to previously unscaled heights. It was also the first smartphone to feature Nokia’s pixel oversampling technique for better image quality, improved low-light performance, and lossless zoom. It also benefited from Nokia’s long-term partnership with Carl Zeiss optics.
Sadly, this amazing camera disappeared quite quickly because it was tied to the sinking Symbian platform. Nokia tried again with its successor in 2013, the Lumia 1020, but Windows Phone turned out to be sinking as well. Despite many plaudits, the 41-megapixel shooter proved to be a leap too far and today’s smartphones still haven’t caught up. Read our Lumia 1020 review.
It’s too early to call, but if we had to pick the next phone that may be ahead of its time, we’d probably opt for the LG G5. The modular design seems set to take off at some point, but we’re not sure it will be 2016.
If You are here then, either you can't connect your Xbox One Controller to your Console or your Controller doesn't maintain a connection with it. It's time to fix the issue once and for all, this guide will show you how to maintain the connection between your Console and the Wireless Controller along with few Tips on how to keep your Xbox One Console Up to date.

There are tons of rumors about a new MacBook Pro headed to stores sometime this fall. The laptop is rumored to have OLED keycaps (replacing the function keys), numerous USB-C ports and a thinner, more tapered design that looks a bit more like the MacBook.But what of the MacBook Air, Apple’s longstanding entry-level notebook? The MacBook Air hasn’t had a major upgrade since early 2015 (the RAM was upgraded to 8GB across models in early 2016) and its still sporting the same physical design dating back to 2010.

Last month, there was a rumor of a minor MacBook Air refresh, but that didn’t end up panning out. Moreover, since the introduction of the MacBook last year – plenty of pundits have predicted that the MacBook Air will probably never get a major refresh again.Now, this doesn’t mean that the MacBook Air is going away. It’s still a great laptop – and a total workhorse – but if you look at Apple’s product line, the MacBook now occupies the place the MacBook Air once took (the most portable, lightest, thinnest notebook) and the MacBook Pro has become thinner over time in a way that sort of obviates the need for a laptop that is simply "thin.”

Apple has a history of keeping old products for sale for years after they last received hardware updates. In fact, it was just last month that the non-retina unibody MacBook Pro 13-inch finally left store shelves. That product hadn’t had a hardware update since mid–2012.So it stands to reason that as long as the MacBook Air still sells, Apple will continue to offer it. Who knows, maybe the company will even consider lowering the price.Now, the age of the components (no Skylake for you!) might turn some budget-conscious buyers away, but anyone who has used a 2015 MacBook Air can attest to the fact that it is a very good machine. I frequently use a 2014 MacBook Air and rarely run into performance bottle necks. And I say that as someone whose daily driver tends to be a 15-inch MacBook Pro.

Plus, until the price of the MacBook comes down – the MacBook Air really is a solid entry-level Mac. It doesn’t have the retina display of its peers but it's a good performer with terrific battery life and super-fast SSD storage. Plus it has tons of ports (USB 3.0, Thunderbolt 2, SD card slots).When I reviewed the redesigned MacBook back in 2015 (and the updated version in 2016), I commented that it represented the future of computing.

In fact, I said that I expected every laptop in the next five years to resemble the MacBook – the same way the MacBook Air continues to influence laptop designs today.But given the price point of the MacBook (it starts at $1299) and its single USB-C port, I don’t think that product is quite ready to replace the MacBook Air. The MacBook is a great secondary computer for business users – and I think it’s a great choice for many students – but for the money, the MacBook Pro is a better value.

The new MacBook Air is the iPad Pro
Interestingly, the new successor to the MacBook Air might just be the iPad Pro.After all – that is the device Apple CEO Tim Cook seems to be targeting against the Chromebook. And although a fully-outfitted 12.9-inch iPad Pro with keyboard and Apple Pencil will actually cost more than a MacBook Air, the iPad Pro is an interesting take on the future of computing.Plenty of apps on the iPad are remarkably full featured and the time when you couldn’t do real work on an iPad has long since passed. Plenty of professionals use the iPad Pro as their primary machine.

We still need an entry-level Apple device, and that’s long been the MacBook Air. But if the MacBook Air isn’t going to get a significant update, the iPad Pro might be better for lots of users.While I fully expect to see a fully-refreshed MacBook Pro this fall, I don’t think we’ll be seeing a major MacBook Air update again.SEOUL (Reuters) - South Korea's LG Electronics Inc said on Wednesday it will work with German carmaker Volkswagen AG to jointly develop a connected car platform to enable vehicles to communicate with external devices.

LG, in a statement, said it and Volkswagen will work to jointly develop over "the next few years" technologies allowing drivers to control and monitor devices in their homes such as lights and security systems, as well as in-vehicle entertainment technologies and an alerting system for drivers providing "recommendations" based on real-time situations.Automakers and technology companies have been forming partnerships in recent years, as the race to develop self-driving cars has created need for more sophisticated components and software that will allow vehicles to seamlessly communicate with various external devices and servers via the internet.

LG Electronics, along with affiliates LG Display Co Ltd and LG Innotek Co Ltd, has identified the auto industry as a new growth driver and has been pushing to grow new businesses amid continued struggles for its mobile phones division.LG and its sister companies last year clinched a deal to supply key components ranging from the battery cells and the electric motor for General Motors Co's 2017 Chevrolet Bolt electric car, burnishing their credentials. LG companies also supply products such as car audio systems and batteries to Volkswagen.In the statement on Wednesday, Thomas Form, Volkswagen's head of electronics and vehicle research, called LG a strong partner and said the pair will work to integrate smart home solutions into Volkswagen vehicles.

Portability or performance – this is the compromise we usually have to make when buying a gaming notebook. Traditionally, such machines are big and bulky behemoths that stretch the meaning of portable about as far as it can go.Not the Gigabyte P35Xv5, however. This capable gaming machine, featuring Intel’s latest Skylake processor with a choice of Nvidia 970M or 980M graphics card, is one of the thinnest and lightest gaming notebooks on the market.Let’s start with the good news. Weighing 2.4kg, the 15.6-inch Gigabyte P35Xv5 is only 350g heavier than the 15.4-inch MacBook Pro and close to half the weight of the competing Asus ROG G752. It isn't exactly featherweight though – you’ll definitely still notice it if you carry it around in your backpack – but for a gaming notebook it’s impressively light.
