Netflix is bringing HDR support to Windows 10 devices on the Fall Creators Update and above starting from today. The firm is rolling out this change to users of the Netflix website in Edge, and the Netflix app in Windows 10.Not all their media are in HDR, and you’ll need a HDR compatible device like Microsoft’s new Surfaces to enjoy it. That being said, Netflix is promising at least 200 hours of entertainment right off the back, including the popular Stranger Things.“This feature is the culmination of a multi-year collaboration between Netflix and a number of industry partners.” Netflix’s representatives explain on Medium, “Intel’s 7th generation and higher CPUs provide that capability needed to play the Netflix HDR10 encodes. In addition, both Intel and Nvidia developed GPUs that use 10 bits-per-channel for each of the RGB colors, increasing the colour space that can be represented.”The update has rolled out to the Microsoft Store, and Edge users should see it automatically.This is not the first Netflix feature that’s enabled by technology available on Edge and the Netflix app, streaming up to 1080p on Netflix was also only possible if one used either Edge or the app, and 4K is li microsoft news...

Magic Leap has finally unveiled their headset, and the product they showed off does look rather polished, if in a 1930’s Sci-Fi goggle-eyed fashion. But Magic Leap did not just promise another mixed reality headset, they promised a revolution, and at first glance, it appears they have failed to deliver.The headset has failed to address the biggest issues with the main mixed reality headset on the market, the Microsoft HoloLens.  The main issue dogging that headset is of course field of view, and according to Brian Crecente who had extensive hands-on time with the Creators Edition of the headset “the viewing space is about the size of a VHS tape held in front of you with your arms half extended.” That would be roughly around 40 degrees,  somewhat bigger than the 30 horizontal degrees of the Microsoft HoloLens and still far from the 120 degrees field of view that includes our central and mid-peripheral field of view.The second big issue with the HoloLens is cost, and when it comes to the Magic Leap headset, while the company would give an exact pricing, they did say “we are more of a premium computing system. We are more of a premium artisanal computer,” suggesting we are almost cert microsoft news...

2017 was a great year for Tech Gadgets with some awesome products released this year. However, it was also the setting of a great race is going on between companies as they launched similar products and asked the market to decide. One example is Google and Amazon battling it out with their smart speakers, and so far, consumers are the main winners.A new report from Consumer Intelligence Research Partners says that it is surprising to find that the total number of smart speakers sold by Amazon is way more than Google have sold. As of September 2017, Google has shipped 7 million Google Home products whereas Amazon has shipped almost 20 million Echo devices. That is three times more than Google. One thing to noted is these numbers are just through September and don’t include the holiday shopping season.One of the biggest reason for Amazon’s lead in Smart Speakers race is its market appearance. What we are trying to say is Amazon Echo was first to the market and has had time to gain the faith of buyers and users, and has also had greater exposure. Echo generation 1 was launched in June 2015 and Google launched Home in November 2016 which gave Amazon Echo almost a year and a half head s microsoft news...

It has always been claimed that iPhones are gradually slowed down as Apple pushes new iOS updates for them. It has also been observed that the batteries of an iPhone start degrading after a certain point. Now a connection between the two may have been identified.Today, Geekbench reported in a blog post that there is a high performance difference between iPhone 6s devices that run iOS version 10.2.1 and 10.2, and this scenario is observed in multiple instances, which means there is something intentionally fishy.Now the root of this cause has been identified as Apple themselves who are intentionally limiting the devices’ performance even with minor software updates. Two iPhone 7 devices with different versions of iOS showed a huge difference in the performance.An interesting thread on Reddit delves into this situation. There, a user claimed to have made their iPhone 6S faster after he replaced its battery. To verify, he also visited Geekbench and compared the benchmark scores and he was able to notice a clear performance boost after a new battery was added.It now appears that Apple may be intentionally slowing down devices with old batteries to maintain at least a semblance of all-da microsoft news...

We reported last month that Trekstor’s Windows phone was being crowdfunded, or at least, an attempt was made at crowdfunding the device. The Windows phone was a low-end handset aimed at small businesses and Windows phones who wanted to replace their old windows devices.It seems the market for that was just not very large. The campaign now is over, and the firm managed to cover just about 11% of its costs, marking an unsuccessful attempt at fundraising (via AllAboutWindowsphone).This isn’t the first Windows phone to attempt a revival via crowdfunding. Trinity — the firm behind the Nuans Neo — did the same as well, with the same results.As Microsoft has long since acknowledged, Windows 10 Mobile isn’t taking the world by storm, and any attempts at crowdfunding merely reveal the lack of interest that burdened the troubled operating system.Some links in the article may not be viewable as you are using an AdBlocker.

The American Foundation for the Blind (AFB) yesterday announced that it will honour Microsoft with the prestigious Helen Keller Achievement Award  for its role in creating more accessible products and improving the accessibility of their already-popular products. AFB mentioned the following reason for giving this award to Microsoft.Microsoft is being honored for its significant strides in developing inclusive technologies to empower people with disabilities. Examples include the launch of the Seeing AI app, which narrates the world for people who are blind or have sight loss. Eye Control on Windows 10 is a new input that allows individuals with severe mobility issues, such as those that stem from Lou Gehrig’s disease, to communicate and use a computer with only the movement of their eyes. Many of the enhancements in Office 365 include accessibility improvements, such as optical character recognition in Office Lens, which inputs content directly into Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote. For entertainment, Xbox One updates, like Copilot and the Accessibility API, make the system even more accessible to people with disabilities.“This year’s recipients capture the spirit of Helen Kell microsoft news...

HTC Vive users have just found another virtual destination to visit, as Facebook, owners of Oculus Rift, announced they are opening up their Facebook Spaces to owners of the device.Facebook Head of Social VR Rachel Franklin said:“VR is such a powerful way to feel present with the people you care about when you can’t physically be together. With Facebook Spaces, we’ve always been committed to bringing the power of social VR to as many people as possible, across platforms and devices.“That’s why I’m super excited to announce that today we’re taking Facebook Spaces cross-platform for the first time, making it possible for even more people to spend time with their friends and family in VR. HTC Vive owners can now use Spaces with a Vive headset — just download from http://facebook.com/spaces.“In the new app, Vive owners will find all the same fun features as the Rift version — you can create your own avatar, view Facebook photos and 360 videos, play games, draw with markers, go Live, make Messenger video calls, and (my favorite) take awesome selfies.

Yesterday we reported about the Back and Front Panels leaked online which confirmed the design of the upcoming Flagship Galaxy S9. Now a Twitter user who goes by the name “Zyad” shared the benchmark results from Geekbench which confirms Snapdragon 845 as the processor.The device is listed as Samsung SM-G965U1 in Geekbench and did confirm other details as well. Galaxy S9 will come with Android Oreo out of the box and will have 6 GB RAM. The Geekbench leak finally gives us a sneak peek at the technical specs of the devices.As for the scores, Galaxy S9 + reaches a single-core score of 2122 points, while it comes to a total of 8351 points in the multi-core test. It should, however, be noted that the device is still not optimized and we don’t know the final scores until Samsung installs Android Oreo into the device. The scores will increase as the hardware and software adapt to work interdependently. No doubt this will give a boost to Qualcomm who is still trying to beat Apple’s A11 chip which scored 10,000 points in the multi-core test and more than 4000 points single-core test.Via: WinfutureSome links in the article may not be viewable as you are using an AdBlocker.

Windows Defender Application Guard is a popular security feature among the enterprise. It helps to isolate enterprise-defined untrusted sites, protecting organisations while their employees browse the Inteet. Enterprise admins can define what is among trusted web sites, cloud resources, and inteal networks.Windows Defender Application Guard was exclusive to Windows 10 Enterprise users. But Microsoft yesterday announced that they are bringing Windows Defender Application Guard to Windows 10 Pro edition users in the next feature update of Windows 10.Here’s how Application Guard works:If an employee goes to an untrusted site through either Microsoft Edge or Inteet Explorer, Microsoft Edge opens the site in an isolated Hyper-V-enabled container, which is separate from the host operating system. This container isolation means that if the untrusted site tus out to be malicious, the host PC is protected, and the attacker can’t get to your enterprise data. For example, this approach makes the isolated container anonymous, so an attacker can’t get to your employee’s enterprise credentials.Windows Insiders running Build 170653 or later can now try out this feature.
