Yota introduces Double Sided Mobile Phone to Improve Battery Life.

The Yotaphone 2 was first teased back in February, and now people in the UK can finally get their hands on the device.

• The Yotaphone 2 launches in London at 6pm GMT
• It will rollout to the rest of Europe later this month and worldwide next year
• Prices for the two-sided handset have not yet been announced
• The 5-inch colour screen works in the same way as typical touchscreens
• While the 4.7-inch electronic paper display is similar to the screens found on e-readers such as the Kindle
• Yota claims second screen boosts battery and lasts for more than 50 hours

The dual-screen handset combines a traditional colour touchscreen on one side, with an e-book display on its rear.

This second screen is a ‘low power display’ that shows emails and text messages, and can be used to post to Facebook and other sites without using as much energy as the colour screen.

The handset launches in London at 6pm GMT. It will then rollout to the rest of the UK, into Europe later this month, and worldwide early next year.

Prices have not yet been announced.

'YotaPhone’s arrival on the market last year marked one of the first game changers in smartphones in many years,’ said Yota Devices boss Vlad Martynov.

'Yota Devices proved that there is an antidote to the always-dark smartphone screen.’

Google Now Targets Children With New Search Engines, YouTube & Chrome Apps

Google is developing special versions of it's most popular products for children, it has revealed. The firm hopes that a child friendly version of YouTube and its chrome browser could make the internet safer for youngsters.

It says it is aiming the news products at under twelves.

• Google hopes apps will make web safer you children to use
• Has created special lab at its Googleplex HQ to study children
• Recent study said iPad has now number one brand among 6-12 year olds

"The big motivator inside the company is everyone is having kids, so there's a push to change our products to be fun and safe for children," Pavni Diwanji, the vice president of engineering charged with leading the new initiative, told USA Today.

"We expect this to be controversial, but the simple truth is kids already have the technology in schools and at home," says the mother of two daughters, ages 8 and 13.

"So the better approach is to simply see to it that the tech is used in a better way."

Google is developing the products in a secret room at its Mountain View,"Googleplex" called the Kids Studio.

The annual study, conducted by leading youth and family research firm Smarty Pants, ranks more than 250 brands each year. 

 

"iPad's number one status among kids represents the culmination of the 'tablet takeover" – a movement from shared screens and TV network dominance to curated content on personal devices,' said Wynne Tyree, president of Smarty Pants.

"Kids increasingly turn to iPad for games, TV shows, videos, books, homework help and communicating with friends and family."

iPhone To Rotate In The Air To Prevent From Damage

Apple has been granted a patent for technology that detects that a phone is about to hit the ground and rotates it mid-air to limit damage.

The US Patent and Trademark Office has issued Apple a patent for a protection system that will consist of two parts - the detection and the rotation.

The phone will be able to detect that it is rapidly falling downwards and identify its distance and angle from the ground.

To do this, the patent said it will take advantage of the components, most of which are already present, such as the "accelerometer, gyroscopic sensor, distance or position sensors (eg, radar, ultrasonic, and the like), location sensors (eg, global position system, compass), image sensors (eg, camera), sound or audio sensors (eg, speakers, microphones) which may be used as a sonar combination."

It is likely that combination of the different sensors will be responsible for the effective ..

For the perfect landing, the force used has to be precisely calibrated, but the patent said that the phone may collect data, to produce a memory bank of sudden impacts.

5 Basic Tips To Maintain Customer Relation

Creating strong customer loyalty is one of the best things you can do for your business. According to a report from the Harvard Business School, an increase in customer retention rates of just 5 percent will result in a profit increase of 25 to 95 percent.

1. Stay in Touch with Your Customers

It may sound too obvious to mention, but a surprising number of business owners don’t touch base with their customers—or they find it difficult to do so. Making regular contact with customers through email and direct mail is one of the best ways to keep your business at the forefront of their minds.

2. Encourage Bigger Initial Purchases

Generating customer loyalty means targeting your customers at all stages of the sales process. According to analytics company, SumAll, the chance of a customer coming back relates directly to the amount of money he or she spends on the first purchase.

3. Get Personal

In a world of abundant choice, customers need strong incentives to remain loyal to one company. One powerful way to ensure that your business remains at the top of the list is to affect the customer's emotions. When customers receive a more personal customer experience they can develop a hard to break emotional attachment to the business.

4. Don't Overlook the Power of Loyalty Programs

Loyalty programs have been severely overdone in recent years, and the average person now has 18 to 20 loyalty cards. However, despite the appearance that loyalty schemes don’t actually inspire loyalty, do not overlook their value.

5. Keep Things Fresh

Internet consumers expect instant gratification, and the majority of them always look for something fresh to hold their attention, albeit briefly. It's more important than ever to keep your website interesting and fresh. This is one effective and relatively simple way to keep the customer coming back.

A New PS4 20th Anniversary 'Grey' Edition Unveiled by Sony

If you weren’t feeling old already, news that Sony’s PlayStation turns 20-years-old today might’ve gone some way towards achieving that.

To mark today’s special occasion, Sony has announced a new 20th anniversary edition of its flagship PS4 console. It’s pretty much exactly like the PS4 you already know, except it sports the same grey look as the original incarnation launched back in 1994.

Sony was already enjoying a sales extravaganza with its latest PS4 console, which passed 10 million sales globally just nine months on the market. That put it ahead of its rivals, including the Xbox One and Wii U, which shifted around 6 million units each in roughly the same timescale. Therefore, it’s perhaps safe to say everyone who really wanted a PS4 already has one, so this latest launch could be one for the collectors and super-fans only.

To get your hands on one of the special edition consoles, you will have to be pretty quick (and perhaps pretty lucky). Pre-orders kick-off in the US and Canada on Saturday, December 6, and will be in “very limited supply.”

Galaxy Note 4: The Best Among It's Predecessor

Four years on from the original Galaxy Note phablet, the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 is finally here. The device brings together big power, a big screen and big productivity.

Galaxy Note 4 Out-casts Other Competing Devices

Thanks to the enhanced sensitivity – of the S-Pen, it feels just like a normal pen on paper while you take notes. No need to copy and paste the texts or images one at a time; handle them all at once.

Another unique feature is the camera, The Front-facing camera has a wide angle – an improvement of 77 degrees (predecessor) to 90 degrees – to fit more into the photo composition.

As smartphones and data become more affordable we will see a decline in feature phones as more consumers embrace a “connected lifestyle”.

Touch has become the de facto standard … for those that still prefer a keyboard there is the option of a “virtual version” or a physical accessory.
