In a new ad “random people” in New York will be asked if they found the iPad Air or the Galaxy Tab S better. Unsurprisingly All were from Samsung Tablet delighted and praised that it thinner, brighter and lighter than the Apple tablet

The spot makes the effect implausible that the respondents characteristics of the Samsung tablet. praise, the average Joe probably would not perceive free will or even could not distinguish.

Also, the difference in weight of 11 grams, which, given the mass of the iPad Air of 469 grams of 2% are just, probably not significant.

Samsung justifies the design of the Galaxy Alpha – ZDNet.de

Samsung has commented in a blog post on the design of the smartphone Galaxy Alpha, the strong opinion of many observers the Apple iPhone similar. Both based on at least a metal frame and have round corners. The Galaxy Alpha is available in early September for 649 euros

 Galaxy Alpha is the beginning of September f & # xFC r 649 € erh & # XE4; articles available to be (Image: Samsung).

With the metal model Samsung responded to complaints that his equipment had cheap due to the excessive use of plastic – just in comparison to the iPhone 5S or the HTC One. Samsung cites in his blog but on an older own example., The Samsung Card Phone of 2006 (SGH-P310)

The corners are rounded, writes Samsung to “balance the straight lines of the sides”. Thus arises a “rhythmic” look. The corners are generally the weakest point of a phone housing. Rounding can minimize the damage if the unit falls.

 Apple iPhone 5S

The similarities go but beyond that: The Alpha has, like the iPhone beveled edges . The openings for the speakers have similarities. In the case of beveled edge Samsung could have been referring to the metal model SGH-P300, the predecessor of the Card Phone.

The name Apple does not fall in the contribution. For more than two years, Apple and Samsung litigate against each other. The now agreed global patent peace except the USA seems to mean that the struggle of the United States courts is still forced. Just recently rejected a request from San Jose Judge Lucy Koh of Apple, to ban the sale of a number of older Samsung devices like Galaxy S3 and Note 2 in the United States.

Samsung had ever been in a similar manner justified for a design decision. When Apple introduced the iPhone 5S last year in gold, it was the Samsung Galaxy S4 a few days later to buy also in gold. In a blog post Samsung remembered accompanying the alleged long history of its golden devices. Even the Galaxy Alpha is offered in the way “Frosted Gold”

It is possible that Apple on September 9, turn the tables and a device with a -. Introduce big screen – perhaps borrowed from Samsung. Rumors speak of 5.5 inches diagonally. Thus, the new Apple device would fall into a class, has coined the term phablet for Samsung.

According to one report, Samsung will also copy itself and follow the model Alpha a number of smartphones in metal frame leave – the A-Series. Thus, three models are scheduled to start, all run under the current Android version 4.4 KitKat. They will carry the model number SM-A300, A500-SM ​​and SM-A700 and thus occupy three price points in the upper segment.

In Review: Samsung Galaxy Mini S5 – Spiegel Online

Oh, that’s nice. After the many smartphones with large screens of five inches and above, which I held in recent months in hands, the Galaxy mini S5 feels really good to. With 4.5-inch display is not to be small, the device yet so compact that it is much better in the hand than the trendy giant cell phones. The ribbed back feels tacky feel to.

Slim is the mini not. Compared to the S5 or about an iPhone 5s it is nine millimeters even comparatively thick. The borrowed from the S5-round plastic frame makes it also seem neither elegant nor slim

In any case, carries the S5 mini same design features as its big brother, and is otherwise similar feature. It has a fingerprint sensor on the front and a optical pulse monitor on its back. Moreover, it is sealed against dust and splashing water, it can be so it could get short deposit in the flower vase. The battery lasted during the test by an average of ten to twelve hours. A useful, but not inspiring value.

The display

As so often used Samsung and the Galaxy mini S5 one of its Super-AMOLED display. Although the resolution of 1280 x 720 pixels is not excessively high, ranging in the face of 4.5-inch screen from but to sharp and smooth gradients represent writings.

But above all shines the screen with the usual for the Amoled technology high contrast and vibrant colors. In the test, he could not always prevail with its brightness against the midday sun. Reflections are visible, due to the small distance between the display and the cover glass but not very disturbing.

Power

In performance tests cuts the small S5 is not particularly well from. The test-app Geekbench 3 example attests him just 1000 points. This is almost 100 less than its predecessor Galaxy S4 mini creates. Given the low clock rate of 1.4 GHz were of the quad-core processor of the S5 mini but no miracles expected.

the more gratifying that the consistent performance has little impact on everyday tasks. When Surfing the web about even complex pages build without annoying delay on graphically demanding games also run in high detail smoothly.

The camera

As with the processor Samsung has saved mini compared to the S5 even with the camera of the S5. Instead of a 16-megapixel camera comes here with only an eight megapixel resolution used. However, the impressive proof that megapixels values ​​are not just the only criterion for a camera.

Functionally, it provides a similar range of automatic modes the camera when an S5. These include high-contrast images (HDR), a panorama mode and continuous shooting. The autofocus operates quite fast. Above all, the quality of the recordings is above average (see photo gallery).

The networking

Move the little S5 connects just as easily and quickly with the mobile networks as the great model and also dominates LTE. In most W-Lans it does not look different. Only the fast Gigabit wireless standard IEEE 802.11ac may not offer the mini. But usually the much more common standard IEEE 802.11n already perfectly adequate. In addition, the S5 mini Bluetooth 4.0 and an NFC chip has built. The internal memory is relatively small with 16 GB via microSD card but can be extended by up to 128 GB.

Advantages and disadvantages

Very good screen

Fast mobile network connection via LTE

Good photo quality

Waterproof and dustproof

Integrated Heart Rate Monitor

Good maneuverability

The display could be a bit brighter

Conclusion

For many mobile phone users, the Galaxy S5 should be Mini S5 the better because it is smaller. To grab the default, as many functions and capabilities of its top smartphones in a handy format, Samsung has certainly done perfectly. That the processor is slower than that of the Galaxy S5, interfere in everyday life just as the lower resolution of the camera. When you get just the mini, what you pay for. And because the little S5 is much cheaper than the big, must be content with anything less. The price performance ratio is at S5 mini but much better.

Video film criticism: “Guardians of the Galaxy” – FAZ – Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung

 
      

 
     
 
     
     
                                                             

When it was the plan adopted to transfer the latest Marvel comic book movie “Guardians of the Galaxy” is calculated using the somewhat unpredictable director James Gunn, the ties of the financial manager must at Marvel Studios have soaked with cold sweat. For Gunn is known in Hollywood that he just bumps into the industry and with fondness and ridicules what is in “Guardians of the Galaxy” especially goes. Superheroes and the fascinating diversity conceivable hypothetical extraterrestrial life

             
                                                             
                             

Dietmar Dath Author:. Dietmar Dath, born in 1970, editor of the features section

From reverence for: Extraterrestrial life is at Gunn in “Slither” (2006) a mountain of stinking tallow without a soul; and the super hero as such is presented in its evil Komödia “Super” (2010) as emotionally retarded, behavior disordered and owned by authoritarian violent fantasies wreck.

             
                                                             

Flawless homage to Spielberg

With the knowledge of arms, that Gunn at any time should trust irreverent, but not heartless movie, so you sit down to the cinema to “Guardians of the Galaxy” – and experienced first a film that is very different than anything you would expect from Gunn: A boy loses his mother to a fatal disease and, before he can break it, kidnapped by a spaceship in a great adventure. The whole sequence is in pictorial composition, light and pace a flawless tribute to Spielberg to its strongest period – the era of “ET” (1982). It surpasses scale fidelity even further-reaching homage to the same model, the JJ Abrams has set in motion with the feature film “Super 8″ (2011).


             
                                                             

It was only after this little virtuoso piece so lets Gunn the bully out, but the powerful – his hero is kidnapped boy as an adult, who now calls himself “Star Lord” and prances with peppered insouciance through space and riots, as he needs it. ” / p>
             
         

More about

Chris Pratt clearly enjoys the role – and tears in his joy the rest of the core ensemble with: Zoe Saldana shows articulated as a professional assassin Gamora, Dave Bautista delivers a hefty performance as a bitter war survivor Drax, which one has taken the family, Bradley Cooper brings the favorite character of all “Guardians” fans, the smart, scruffy and nihilistic Raccoon Rocket Raccoon to elektrisiertem life (in the German dubbing convinced Fahri Yardim). From Rockets best friend Groot, a humanoid tree with golden – well: wooden – heart, one hears is (almost) always only one sentence but with conviction and constantly changing deep meaning: “I am Groot.”


             
                                                             

The reality potato mash

So see the five that you want to stop the mad tyrant Thanos. Who says of himself, politics bored him why he, rather than to subjugate them, rather exterminates his victims alike. To hand him going there “Ronan the Accuser,” a beknackter ethnic cleanser from the people of the Kree, which in turn assists a Thanos-daughter, the deadly Nebula – can finally Karen Gillan of “Doctor Who” television -süchtigen Freaks years ago especially loved for her red mane, and show me what she brings except hair (here she is bald, blauhäutig and enchanting fanatic).

Alpha Galaxy: Samsung explains the edges design – Curved

Samsung launches in September finally its new Galaxy Alpha on the market, thus expanding its range with a stocked with the latest hardware smartphone that also has a metal housing. In an official blog post, the Koreans declared now, why she decided to, the corners of the Galaxy Alpha have rounded – and also published a suitable teaser video

If the new Samsung Galaxy. Alpha has not yet been viewed up close, the’ll notice the slightly thicker and rounded corners in the video.

Galaxy Note 4 with fingerprint scanner Galaxy S5 – Curved

When Samsung first has introduced a fingerprint sensor in its current flagship model Galaxy S5, is the technology keeping up with revised features including the new phablet Galaxy Note 4 Feeder – identical, but with improved software features

On 3 September, the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 in all probability at a special event at the IFA in Berlin officially present. After the first teaser videos have already been published for the phablet Galaxy Note 4, are the so-called S Pen in the center, more information about the device are now leaked. So reports SamMobile that the Galaxy Note 4 of the same kind is installed ID Solution fingerprint scanner from Synaptics, which is also used in the Galaxy S5 and the Samsung Galaxy Alpha.



Galaxy Note 4 known scanner, but new features

With the scanner of the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 It should first be able to authenticate with the new function “web sign-in” fingerprint on Internet pages. This new feature could prove to be extremely practical in everyday life, because the annoying completing text fields does not apply to the application. Another new feature of the sensor are the shortcuts. Thus can create your own shortcuts and have them just run automatically with one finger

scan right to be learned

After the release of Samsung Galaxy S5 there were negative comments about the poor detection rate of the built-in fingerprint scanner – and certainly many will ask whether the problems will now be repeated with the Galaxy Note 4. Here, however, it must be admitted that Samsung later an update released that should have improved the scan.

According SamMobile the reason for failed scans should even be in the wrong operation, since many users did not know that the Galaxy S5 scans the fingerprint both the home button and on the lower part of the touch screen. When the user drags his finger just above the home button, this has often no effect. If the fingers are already recognized on the screen and then pulled all the way up on the home button, will almost always succeed scan. The blame for the many negative experiences with the fingerprint scanner of the Galaxy S5 is but in any case with Samsung, as the manual explains this aspect adequately.

Come more “metal models” – Curved: After Samsung Galaxy Alpha

With the Samsung Galaxy brand new Alpha has not only a first smartphone with sleek metal frame released about two weeks ago, but also claims to be “the next stage of Samsung Design Evolution” climbed. And so it is no surprise that Samsung will make a series of it and will announce the first three units of the A-series in the coming weeks.

So are the reliable and well-informed colleagues usually of SamMobile prior information according to which Samsung has the models SM-A300, -A500 and -A700 already three models of the new, let’s call it “design line” in petto. Together to these smartphones the metallic appearance of the Alpha have -. Therefore we strongly believe that they are also enclosed in this fashionable setting

is in the A models, a higher resolution front camera to be installed – it may be speculated whether this is the same 3.7 MP module, which is currently the next week at the IFA debuting Galaxy Note rumored 4. The A700 and A500 are after SamMobile incidentally be equipped with HD display, while the A300 is expected with the much less contemporary qHD resolution of 960 x 540 pixels – if the chic metal frame can consolation for such maue values ​​

Whether already reached us at the IFA official Ankündig the new style models is questionable – the exhibition in Berlin is likely to stand for Samsung rather quite solely dominated by the Galaxy Note 4. Interestingly seems to us then, whether the coming phablet also receives a wertigeres appearance, or whether Samsung per se high-end specs and stylish design not want to sell together …

“Guardians of the Galaxy” in cinema: In space, there is anarchy – n-tv.de NEWS

 Tuesday, August 26, 2014

 A superhero film with anti-heroes, losers and scoundrels? This is “Guardians of the Galaxy”. Marvel makes a fast-paced space adventure on the audience going, with music from the 80s – and a weapons horny raccoons
.
 


 

Iron Man is a billionaire with schniekem laboratory, Captain America personified American patriotism and a god Thor with Hammer craze. They are all super heroes, which has to be order. But, just gets a little out of joint, then move it straight again. On the American security architecture do not get cracks.

For the Guardians of the Galaxy this eternal game would be good against evil, this exaggerated Americanism a horror. After all, there is the force of a philanderer who steals, hehlt and vigilante abhors a dangerous killer, a bloody revenge musing “Destroyer”, a genetically engineered raccoons with weapons Tick and a tight-lipped tree beings.

you fit all to not be together, but have something in common: they are outsiders, outlaws and persecuted, the last of their kind in the entire universe and unique. So why not join forces? The thought also Marvel, the comic book publisher that is mutated to a successful film producer. So now starts with “Guardians of the Galaxy” the first strip of the comic book heroes in the movies – and brings the audience an action-packed, thrilling, funny and notoriously nostalgic space adventure

The destructive ball

<. p> Unlike “Star Wars” film but does not play in a far far away galaxy. He begins rather on the earth, in the 80s, a decade that will be the entire rest of the film present. Here dies in a little history, the mother of the young Peter Quill ( Chris Pratt ), who is kidnapped shortly thereafter by space pirates into space.

years later Quill, which is now located is Star Lord calls, a thief who purchased and resold valuable items in the entire universe. He also gets a mysterious ball, interested in a lot of other powers. Not only attach themselves to the pirates Quills heels. The so powerful as brutal Ronan ( Lee Pace ), a warrior from the people of the Kree, would like to have the ball at all costs and its contents. He is the assassin Gamora ( Zoë Saldaña ) on him

On the planet Xandar they may Quill the ball actually snatch before both are surprised by two bounty hunters. Raccoon Rocket Raccoon (voiced by Bradley Cooper, in German by Fahri Yardım) and the tree being Groot (voiced by Vin Diesel). However, at the end pull all four up short: you are arrested and end up in the high security prison Kyln

The jail is of course not just a paradise.. Especially prisoner Drax the Destroyer ( Dave Batista ) Gamora goes to the throat. His family was once wiped out by Ronan why he wants revenge on his allies. But Gamora long plays their own game. She has broken away from Ronan, because who wants to use the ball to wipe out entire planets. So Quill, Gamora, Drax, Rocket and Groot plan to escape from the prison. You want to get behind the devastating secret of the ball and flog them. But Ronan remains hot on their heels.



rogue piece and action thriller

Confused by the many foreign names that are still to come from completely different planets and peoples? Yes, it should go some moviegoers. For even the comic master of the Guardians plays a minor role at Marvel – compared with the Avengers, the X-Men and Spider-Man. To bring a mega-blockbuster cinema nowadays with so unknown figures, therefore quite audacity.

But it is also an opportunity. Many viewers will see the film at ease. You can (and should) can easily be carried away by this sophisticated, fast-paced mix of rogue piece, Adventure and Action thriller. Tremendously breathless, this film – and therefore acts at times overloaded. Several figures, terms and allusions patter one of the spectators. These are intended for comic fans, who know the Marvel universe.



Here are anti-superhero at work

has about supervillain Thanos ( Josh Brolin ) a brief appearance, the foster father of Gamora, also their foster sister, the killer Nebula (Karen Gillan). And the collector ( Benicio del Toro ) plays a role. They ensure that “Guardians of the Galaxy” enqueues in the other films of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, that he on the side of “Iron Man,” “Thor,” “Captain America” ​​and “Avengers” may exist.

More on the topic
 
 
 

In tone, however, the strip dares something new. Not only because he plays in space and can keep up with “Star Wars” and Co. here. Above all, he is anarchic, wild, impetuous than the previous Marvel movies: He celebrates the loser image of its anti-superhero and admits them a good dose of irony. For the Hallodri and antihero Peter Quill ensure, above all, Rocket Raccoon, the trumps his colleagues in an instant with his interest in big shootas and with snappy sayings

In addition, the film also preserves an earthly element. Peter Quills cassette with hits from the 80s (!) – the soundtrack has a fantastic meanwhile the box office. They provide a premiere superhero movies: singing and dancing. Even if that’s not likely to be to everyone’s taste: So easy, so flaky like seeing Superman, Batman and Captain America never. Marvel has high gambled with “Guardians of the Galaxy”, but won.

“Guardians of the Galaxy” starts on August 28 in the German cinemas.

Guardians of the Galaxy with Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana – Spiegel Online

If you want to be famous, you must make a name for yourself first. This is especially true for superheroes. Among those were Marvel’s “Guardians of the Galaxy” long backbenchers, another of the many world-savior collectives that since his comic debut in the sixties with a rotating cast was allowed to contest only a few rows of stitching. The times than tip should now however be over, because with their own, already commercially successful feature film, Peter Quill aka Star-Lord, Gamora, Rocket Racoon, Groot and Drax the Destroyer catapult from the second row right in the bright center of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

The financial risk, previously almost exclusively known enthusiast characters with high production and marketing costs on par with icons like Captain America or to bring Hulk, has obviously paid off. However, what makes the film remarkable about the balances out, is its charm: Directed by James Gunn of the spacefaring community of fate manages a peculiar balancing act between riot pleasure and warmth, anarchic fun and defiant pathos.

For the filming zeitigt those qualities, which already includes the younger Guardians Comics distinguished from author Brian Michael Bendis. It also includes a self-ironic attitude to their own niche and taking care of the underdog image. For this origin story provides ample opportunity for the protagonists initially not a very glorious shapes and light years away from being a team.

With the Walkman through space

According traveling alone is initially Peter Quill, the space pirates in children abducted from Earth and from the deathbed of his mother. Now an adult, but not adult, the self-proclaimed Star-Lord tried as soldiers of fortune and job thief. Always with this he has his big mouth and an ancient Walkman, runs on the only Mamas “Awesome Mix Vol. I”, a compilation of soul and rock classics from her childhood. Chris Pratt (“Parks and Recreation”), which also makes this film the secret status behind him, plays these lovable wannabe with so much casual naturalness and devotion that another occupation seems unimaginable.

At the opening Quill is through the theft of a spherical artifact several times of trouble one: His extraterrestrial surrogate father, the blue-skinned pirate Yondu (Michael Rooker), puts a bounty on him in order to get to the mysterious booty . The fanatic Ronan (Lee Pace), however, takes the ball in the hidden legendary Infinity Stone to achieve its universal destruction fantasies. He sends Gamora (Zoe Saldana) to hunt down Quill, bringing the threat scenario gets even more imposing. For Gamora was made by Thanos, Marvels mad Titan for all cases was orphaned and then brought up from childhood to the killer. No question that the adoptive father pursued his perfidious plans in the background.

Gamora finds Quill on the planet Xandar. But then waits another competition on the doubting fighter: The genetically engineered weapons and technology specialist Rocket and his companion Groot want to collect the bounty for Quill. They give a sensational duo, because the irascible Rocket is amazingly similar to an earthly Raccoon – only should be the opposite to him better not mention – and Groot is a tree beings with amazing abilities to grow and a small vocabulary (consisting of the sentence “I am Groot”).

Quill and the Gang

There follows a turbulent confrontation, which ends for all participants in prison. But as so often in the movies welded these prison experience together. Quill, Gamora, Rocket and Groot put their dispute so at least temporarily, in and to take together a breakout attempt. They are accompanied by hulking fellow inmates Drax (Dave Bautista), who wants revenge on the mass murderer Ronan for the death of his family. No sooner are the five unequal escape, they have to defuse the dangerous wonders ball, Ronan staying together with his army, and on top of that to save a civilization that appears in the to be no place for them. If even rehabilitation, then just really difficult.

By the way is yet ascended more prominent personnel, including Glenn Close as head of the Nova Corps – a kind of galactic police – rare and Benicio Del Toro in the role of Taneleer Tivan, an opaque Collectibles. Some of these performances, as well as the presence of super villain Thanos, are obviously the preparation of future sequels in the Marvel universe. All this is done dutifully, but quite at the film’s more, if he ignores the generic plot and has been symptomatic fuss to powerful energy sources and instead the Guardians simply leaves a little shake up the galaxy.

Fortunately uses the production as well as the relatively high degree of design freedom, which provides a relatively unknown comic template. In Gunns entertaining staging it pops any event colorful at all corners, and unquestionably Han Solo would shoot in this universe comes first.

In addition cavalier Spaceploitation the film shows but also how limbless person to verkorkster outsider a touching surrogate family arises from a handful. In the’ve Drax’s amusing problems with metaphors as well as space Rockets poignant “Elephant Man” moment (“I’m not an animal!”) Or Peter Quills philosophical digressions about Kevin Bacon in “Footloose”. If this still Groot mawkish stretches out the branches and Marvin Gaye with Tammi Terrell “Is not no mountain high enough” sings, presumably squashed even the hardy Gamora a tear.

Therefore and thanks to a convincing cast – to that in the original English version and Bradley Cooper and Vin Diesel are as Speaker of Rocket and Groot – need these Guardians no comparison with the brilliant Marvel-Stars to spare. Many superheroes form teams, however they are a real transition. And they have soul.
