Huawei Ascend P7 specification leaked

Huawei apparently works at Ascend P7. According to a leaked internal document, the smartphone comes with powerful hardware and some interesting features.

Known as "Sophia" designated Ascend P7 seems to be much better equipped compared to its predecessor Ascend P6. The internal document was leaked gsmarena.com his own words from an anonymous source.

 Accordingly, the Ascend P7 is equipped with a 5 -inch full-HD display, a quad-core 1.6 GHz , 2 GB RAM and 16 GB of internal memory. In addition, the mobile phone should be expanded via microSD. The back camera triggers with 13 megapixels that .

Onto the front with 8 megapixels The Ascend the P7 includes 2,460 mAh battery. It should also support LTE Cat4. It runs with Android and the EmotionUI 2.0. Consequently, the smartphone should be able to create the best Selfie videos.

These apparently used the 8- megapixel front camera. In addition, it is of unspecified, but "exquisite", composed materials. According to the leaked information sheet the Ascend P7 comes in April 2014 on the market. There is no information for the price . If and when the phone will come in Germany in the trade, is not known.

Vim can be used as Javascript and 3D modeler

The open-source text editor Vim can also embed a Javascript engine into web pages from now. Other developers use it to create 3D models. Vim or Vi Improved and it can not be killed now. Now developers have implemented the Text Editor as Javascript - module, it can thus be used in the web browser.

Other developers use it as a basis for 3D modeling software. Vim can be used not only for developing with Javascript. The developer Lu Wang rewrote it in javascript under the name Vim.js. or Vi Improved; this allows easy use and embed in a web page. Still if it does not work or for any issue the help can not be called. Apparently, there is also no interface to the local file system, text files can not open or save.

Vim.js knows most commands of the text editor now. Vim.js uses a modified version of Mozilla's Javascript engine Narcissus. The code is available on Github under several free licenses and can be forked. For a project; developer Dan Lynch and Barry Martin of Vim have made a 3D modeling software. More can be edited in Vim3D scenes and objects are created.

These serve the various Vim commands. Lynch has this already in 2010 a framework program that allows to interact with the 3D model and the Vim command set. Via so-called channels can import 3D objects from a library. It was created in GNUPlot or Matlab files are supported. For the rendering OpenGL 2.0 is required.

 Vim3D is primarily aimed at developers or engineers who want to easily visualize objects or data - and have a penchant for Vim. As an example, the developers perform on a project in which the movements of a robot can be represented visually from the corresponding code. Vim3D is under the BSD license and is also on Github as a code.

Google Design Its Own ARM Chips

Google to develop its own server processors with ARM architecture. Thus Goolge can use hardware that is better adapted to the Google software. Rumors that Google is working on their own processors is circling for many years - ever since the purchase of Agnilux 2010. 

According to a report by Bloomberg, Googleis busy to design their own processors, which is beneficial in two ways: Google would be less dependent on Intel and could also control the integration of hardware and software better, similar to Apple. 

 It is unclear at this point, the areas in which Google uses the ARM processors. For example, chips for micro servers are conceivable - Google builds Switches already of their own. Processors of its own design are at the beginning though expensive as they have to be designed after the symbiosis of computing unit and applications but is usually much more effective than with chips from other manufacturers. 

A good example is the combination of the developed processors from Apple and iOS. The current A7 chip is based on a 64 -bit architecture, with the ARMv8 technique, a similar development has also reached the ARM segment. 

After AMD has already announced server processors like the Hierofalcon based on this architecture, it seems only logical that Google developed its own ARM processors. However, this would mean that in future fewer chips by Intel are used by Google. 

Google is one of the companies that buy most of server processors from Intel. Google spokeswoman Liz Markman said to Bloomberg that Google is working constantly to develop the world's best infrastructurewith hardware included. Whether the company also developed its own ARM processors to Markman did not elicit .

Google Dart is going to be standardized

Google's Javascript alternative Darts should be standardized. The Ecma, which has already been standardized Javascript will also set a dart standard, now. 

 The standardization organization Ecma has called a technical committee TC52 which was set up to develop a standardized version of Google's Dart language scripts. Google Dart has developed as a potential replacement for JavaScript, thus making an important step towards this goal. 

After Dart appeared in mid-Novemberwith version 1.0, Darts is stable and mature enough to be standardized, writes Google developer Anders Sandholm in a blog entry. Google wants to include the standardization in the development of darts. 

However, no other major browser vendors has taken Dart. With respect to Google, Dart will continue to run natively in all browsers, thus replacing Javascript. So far there is only one special Chromium variant that supports Dart natively. 

However, Dart programs can be translated into Javascript and so already run in any modern browser. However, a Dart VM is added in the browser to increase the speed of the programs significantly.

Padfone Mini 4.3: Smartphone With 7-Inch Tablet Enclosure

Whether here comes a scratch resistant screen used is not known. Thus, the tablet provides housing as the smartphone does not particularly have high resolution, but it is a good than the average . In Tablet Case is a 2200 mAh battery, but battery life is not known. Due to the insertion mechanism, the tablet housing is considerably thicker than modern compact tablets which are usually thinner than 10 mm. The measures 199.9 x 119.5 Tabletdock contrast x 17.7 mm. 

The Tabletdock itself weighs 310 grams, so that together with the inserted smart phone gives a weight of 415 grams. While that is heavier than single 7- inch tablets, but in view of the construction tolerable. A weight of 400 grams can be maintained even without effort with one hand. Currently, there is no information about whether or when Asus Padfone serving mini 4.3 available in Europe.
