HomePod has a built in Siri support and can be integrated with Apple Music, the 6 microphone array can easily detect voice command from anywhere in the room. Siri has a very important function in this HomePod is to secure your privacy.

Apple has inserted a visible LED waveform, what it does is whenever a user says “Hey Siri” it will glow so a user knows that Siri is listening and when it’s not glowing that means Siri is not monitoring what you are talking. All the communication between Siri and Apple servers is completely anonymous and encrypted.

The HomePod is not just for music as you can do other normal stuff as well such as weather reports, finding of road traffic, find other Apple devices, make a phone call, play podcasts, sent messages, play live radio stations, set multiple timers, and many more.

Another feature which is good for privacy concern is when the main user whose iCloud account is integrated with HomePod is not near the device then you can only access one feature of the HomePod and that is Apple Music. Both primary and HomePod needs to be on the same network in order to operate full fledge.

Design

HomePod has a cylinder-shaped with a plain top that shows display and Siri Waveform when triggered. The in built touch control system have the option to play or pause music or change volume. Apple’s HomePod is Bluetooth enabled but it does not connect with other non-Apple devices using Bluetooth.

The Bose Frames come in two styles one is Alto and the other is Rondo. An alto frame has a thin look with a bigger fit, and on the other side, Rondo has rounded lenses with a reduced fit. These Bose sunglasses were advertised as audio augmented reality and they can play music for you and allow you to make phone calls.

The frames are made from nylon, due to the large arm support it does not fell easily. Despite the fact that it has large arms to remain on ears it is still light in weight.

The sound coming out of the sunglasses is also very elegant. These glasses are very handy to those who work in the construction industry where they have to work on a sunny day and in a boring environment. Just replace Bose sunglasses with your ordinary glasses and enjoy the music coming right into your ears and also you can listen to what people are talking.

There are advantages and disadvantages as well like everything. These types of devices don’t have enough power to remain active for a long time and same is the case with these Bose sunglasses. The battery life is not as impressive as the technology is. The average battery life of Bose sunglasses is 3.5 hours of playback and 12 hours on standby position.

You can download the Bose connect app which gives you control to operate and you can learn more stuff related to Bose Sunglasses.

If you try to volume up to its fullest then you might feel the distortion coming from the glasses that means they are not meant to be on max volume. Due to its shrink speakers when the voice is at a balance position you will hear a perfect voice coming out of these sunglasses.

You might be thinking how it turned on, it’s easy, and on the right side of the glass, you will see on and off button. These on and off button is also usable when you receive a call or you want to talk to Google or Siri to give a command.

The Bose Frames Sunglasses were promised with augmented reality but it is not coming with AR at the moment. Moreover, you can get your hands on these glasses pair for just $200.

Here are some pros and cons of Bose Sunglasses:

Pros
  • Sunglasses as well as a Music player
  • Good sound quality
  • Lightweight
  • Easy to use and connect with mobile
  • Affordable price
Cons
  • The battery life is short
  • Incoming call volume is low

All in all, it’s a good addition to technology and we are waiting for the Bose Sunglasses to come in Augmented Reality and see the real magic.

Replace Your Home Internet with Sprint Mobile Hotspot https://techying.com/news/replace-your-home-internet-with-sprint-mobile-hotspot/ Thu, 14 May 2020 11:54:23 +0000 https://techying.com/?p=1792 Everybody nowadays uses the internet but dealing with internet providers is a very tiresome process […]

Everybody nowadays uses the internet but dealing with internet providers is a very tiresome process because of the installation and plan commitments. Luckily, now there is a method to turn things around, use your mobile phone to make a hotspot and use your other devices as well with Sprint mobile hotspot.

Sprint offers 4G LTE hotspot data to its users by giving a 100GB plan. This is the best offer any major carrier is offering in the US. The 100GB is more than enough to stay home and work from home. But there is a drawback; Sprint network coverage is not up to the standards. If you are living in a metropolitan area then you are not going to be affected but the service is not great in suburbs and rural areas.

You cannot beat Sprint’s unlimited premium plan of 100GB of mobile when it comes to finding a plan with sufficient hotspot data. The Sprint deal also comes with Amazon Prime, Tidal, and Hulu subscription as well. Sprint is also offering 50GB of plan that is also a great plan who is working from home. All you need to spend is $80 per month.

The Sprint mobile hotspot helps your mobile to become a Wi-Fi device or a Wi-Fi router. You can use your phone’s connection to use the internet on your laptops, tablets, or another mobile as well. From home to park or wherever you are, Sprint signals you are covered with the mobile hotspot.

Now it is up to you to decide whether to go for the package or not. Here is a suggestion from our side, check out your consumption of data from previous months, and if it was less than 100GB then you are good to go with this package but make sure the network signals are strong enough for 4G LTE service in your area.

The Sprint comes in at 4th number when compare it with other cellular carriers such as Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile. Sprint may rank in some areas the second best but it is not constant throughout the country. The average speed from Sprint’s tower is around 30Mbps which is enough to work from home.

Roku speakers can now turn into a surround sound system https://techying.com/news/roku-speakers-can-now-turn-into-a-surround-sound-system/ Wed, 13 May 2020 16:19:15 +0000 https://techying.com/?p=1789 Mingling its soundbar and wireless speakers, Roku converting these two into a surround sound system.

Mingling its soundbar and wireless speakers, Roku converting these two into a surround sound system. The main idea behind this is to streamline home theatre audio. Roku is doing the apparent thing by setting up a sound system to make its smart soundbar, subwoofer and Roku TV wireless speakers have a better audio experience. The sound system was only supported by Roku TV but the software update is coming and due to that the Roku owners will add the soundbar to the wireless speakers.

Roku is now currently using Dolby audios both version Dolby Digital and Dolby Digital Plus. Dolby audio uses a cluster of technologies to process the audio to deliver improved sound. Dolby is also supported by Netflix, Disney+, Apple TV, and other renowned streaming applications.

The audio mechanisms all hook up with one another wireless audio device, which is very convenient. Another is sound setting through Roku’s on-screen list of options. The setting of the audio system takes just a few seconds; all you have to do is long press the home button on the remote for a couple of seconds then a menu shows up for pairing and connecting everything together. In the end, you also have an option to check out your sound whether it is flowing accurately on both right and left side speakers or not, after doing that you are all set.

But there’s a weird snag altogether in this: the entire proposition really doesn’t make sense for Roku TV owners. See, the Smart Soundbar has Roku’s software inbuilt and doubles as a streaming device in its title. But if your 4K TV is already running Roku OS, you’re getting to be handling with redundancy. Roku tries to clarify that on their official page.

But it seems impractical because you’ll be handling two Roku remotes and two Roku interfaces. This solution is noticeably designed for those people that own TVs from other brands like Samsung, LG, Sony, etc. Roku thinks it can simplify home theatre with an expressive way for those consumers. For non-surround audio, you’ll still have to hear audio coming from all the speakers or simply from the front speakers in regular stereophonic mode.

Walmart is releasing a less expensive version of the wireless speakers for $149 compared to Roku $199.That would bring a less expensive way into Roku’s surround audio system. Roku isn’t offering a reduced bundle of the $159 Smart Soundbar, $199 Roku TV Wireless Speakers, and $159 subwoofer, but which may not be far away.

Amazon Echo Show 8 is the fourth smart display that has Alexa support. It comes in 8 inches of screen. The Echo Show 8 has the right amount of features to be the Amazon’s smartest display. Google Nest Hub is the direct competitor of Show 8.

Of course, there are some perks along with drawbacks with every device that launches in the market. And Echo Show 8 has also some great features along with some snags.

The Echo Show 8 is available at $130 and that what makes it a midrange smart display. The better screen resolution along with good quality sound doubles the joy. There is also a small camera shutter for user’s privacy. The aim is to provide some relaxation that they are not being watched.

The downside is it lacks the smooth interface if we compare it with Google Nest Hub. It comes with one megapixel of camera but the video quality is as good as 5 megapixel camera. And also you cannot open YouTube videos through voice command.

Amazon keeps pushing with its wide range of products.  The company launched Amazon Echo, Echo Dot with Clock, Echo Studio, Echo Show 5 and now Echo Show 8. They feel that one device will be right for somebody out there. If someone doesn’t like the Echo Show 5 then he or she will like Echo Show 8. The aim is to fill all the market need and don’t let the customer go away towards another competitor.

The echo show 8 comes with smart speakers along with Alexa. You can use this device at your doorstep to see who is coming, you can use it for streaming, video chatting, or use it to learn cooking. Everything at a mid-range price of $130.

It’s a little tough to match Echo Show 8 costs $130 which comes in 8 inches of the screen directly to Google Nest Hub which costs $130 with no camera option and has a 7 inches screen. But the Google Nest Hub Max which does have a better quality camera, smooth interface than Echo Show 8 along with 8 inches of the screen comes in at $230. From Nest Hub Max you can bring YouTube video via voice command.

Although, Amazon is improving day by day still they are far behind as compared to Google in the operating system. But Echo Show 8 steals the show here and no doubt the smartest display if we look at the features and price tag.

The impact of coronavirus has not just affected the human and economy of the world but there is also a positive outcome for those who are affiliated with online working. Just like other tech giants, Google, also, has been so busy for the last 3 months. Google is continuously monitoring what people searches for during this pandemic coronavirus.

In normal days the searches related to self-care remains low but during this crisis where everything is closed down, people are searching for “how to cut hairs” because lockdowns are placed in most parts of the world and barbershops are closed.

There is a website by Google named Google Trends that shows the trending topics established on the basis of people’s searching behavior.

Some software became immensely popular during the lockdown and their search queries increased rapidly. The Zoom searches increased in millions in last 3 months, as there are so many workers working from home and they need to stay connected with their employees and clients and Zoom is a good choice for having am online meeting with up to 40 minutes if you are using it for free.

The others top trending searches include “Stimulus Check”. A stimulus check is also known as Economic Impact Payment is basically a request that you have made to your government for giving your money during crisis.

As we have known that the coronavirus is spreading rapidly and people are getting effected continuously and that resulted in a shortage of supplies in the market as there is more demand and less supply so people started caring and protecting themselves by their own. And that’s why people are searching for “How to make a mask” or “how to make a hand sanitizer”

TikTok was not so much popular in Google searches like Instagram and Facebook but during this pandemic, it attracted more celebrities such as Bella Hadid, Hailey Bieber, Jack Black, Megan Thee Stallion, Alex Rodriguez and Jennifer Lopez, Ashley Benson and many more.

The searches are both type. There are searches related to coronavirus and health related issues and then there are daily searches. Google trends also show coronavirus country wise live current data.
