Redefining ‘desktop replacement’, Acer Malaysia has finally launched the insane Predator Helios 700 for the Malaysian market. This crazy-looking laptop will be the brand’s top-of-the-line gaming laptop, and it comes with insane features to boot.

First off, the machine can be configured with up to an Intel Core i9-9980HK processor, 32GB of DDR4 memory (upgradable to 64GB), a 1TB SSD as well as an NVIDIA GeForce RTX2080 graphics card with 8GB of memory.  A 17.3” Full HD 144Hz IPS panel with G-SYNC completes the gaming package in this behemoth of a gaming machine.

What makes this machine stand out are several features. This includes the RGB-enabled HyperDrift keyboard, that can slide-out from the body to reveal a beefy cooling solution for the CPU/GPU. This is a boon as the extra cooling space is definitely needed for the beefy, desktop-level graphics for intense gaming session.

Other features include WiFi 6 support, Killer Ethernet E3000, dedicated hotkeys, a TURBO key and PredatorSense built-in to monitor the Helios through your smartphone.

The Acer Predator Helios 700 is priced at an eye-watering RM17,999, and can be purchased at all Acer authorised resellers nationwide as well as Acer official online stores.

After launching the latest entry into the Note 10 series, Samsung is said to be readying a new model in the family. The Note 10 Lite could be the mid-ranger Note rather than a lower-end flagship.

The news of a Note Lite first came with SamMobile spotting the model number SM-N770F. The N prefix is always associated with the Note series, and N7 was first used by the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 Neo back in the days.

Of course this model number may just be a placeholder or even a smokescreen for upcoming Samsung models, but with the currently Note 10 currently priced at very high level, the market is becoming a bit more tired over devices over RM4000. Perhaps with a lower-cost Note, it can reinvigorate the smartphone market, where manufacturers are obsessed over high-priced devices.

Sebuah prototaip telefon ‘feature’ dari Nokia telah tertiris di dalam talian. Apa yang menarik mengenai telefon dari Nokia ini adalah ianya menggunakan sistem operasi Android.

Di dalam video di XDADevelopers, antaramuka peranti tersebutmemang tampak seperti Android. Perbezaan ketara ialah cara mengakses informasi di dalam telefon- menggunakan butang D-Pad seperti telefon dahulu. Antara ikon yang boleh dilihat adalah Maps, Chrome dan juga tetapan Android.

Nampaknya peranti dan sistem operasi ini sepatutnya berada di bawah Android Go yang sememangnya sudah sangat asas. Ianya menggunakan Android 8.1, jadi prototaip ini telah dibina dalam dua tahun yang lalu.

Walaubagaimanapun, tak semestinya Nokia akan menghasilkan produk ini untuk pasaran- ianya sebuah prototaip. Akan tetapi, ini menunjukkan betapa fleksibel Android; jadi kita mungkin akan lihat produk seperti ini pada masa hadapan. Kata kuncinya ‘mungkin’.
