The virtual reality is on everyone ‘s lips lovers hardware in recent times, and manufacturers are rushing to introduce their products VR Ready for users interested in this business. MSI has its first team “certification” (internal) for virtual reality systems, the MSI WT72 of which I speak in today.

Basically what MSI has done has been to update one of its laptop models aimed at professional CAD design and adapt to new requirements with virtual reality systems to create the WT72. This is a team that has a graphics card NVIDIA Quadro M5500, Intel Core i7 or Xeon sixth generation and up to 64 GB of RAM DDR4 memory, so performance you will not miss with this combination of hardware.

The biggest innovation is the inclusion of the new NVIDIA Quadro graphics M5500, a GPU that provides 35% more performance than the previous generation. Andy Tung, MSI CEO of America said about it that “The MSI WT72 with NVIDIA Quadro M5500 is the world ‘s first notebook that can literally with any task, including graphic design and virtual reality systems.”

To enhance the multimedia experience, MSI has integrated into the WT72 the Dynaudio sound technology, in this case with an audio optimizer Nahimic. They have also introduced new panels Ultra HD 17.3 inch True Color technology with Adobe RGB certification, SteelSeries backlit keyboard, and USB connectivity Thunderbolt 3 and 3.1. As you can see, MSI has taken its professional teams and has integrated them some of the characteristics of their equipment Gaming to create the new WT72. These are its characteristics such as we announced the manufacturer.

At the moment it is unknown when this new team will come to market and price, although seen your hardware can expect prices not suitable for many pockets (we speak of more than 4,000 euros a good insurance).

Folks at XDA have released TWRP custom recovery for the Lenovo A6000. Flashing this Lenovo A6000 TWRP custom recovery will remove the stock recovery from the android phone and will allow you to flash custom ROMs, firmwares and all sorts of third party hacks. Installation guide is given below.

1. Open Fastboot and Minimal ADB from PC. Download link. Also download the twrp image file from here.
2. Set device on bootloader
3. Type in command — adb devices
<if it shows Good if it doesn’t, don’t worry>
4. Type in command — fastboot boot recovery.img (or whatsoever is the file name e.g. twrp.img)

It will take a few seconds to flash to the TWRP onto the Lenovo A6000. That is it, you have successfully replaced the stock recovery with custom recovery on your Lenovo android phone. Go ahead and start flashing custom firmwares to enable extra and new features. 

Plextor has announced the launch of its new line Plextor M7V , a line of SSD drives profitable consumer happening to those already launched the Plextor M6V series last July and how good analysis and praise received by of its members. Available form factors of 2.5 inches and M.2, the units take advantage of the SATA interface 6 Gb / s.

Available in capacities of 128 GB, 256 GB and 512 GB, the M7V series is equipped with the latest Marvell controller, a leading manufacturer of chips SSD controllers. It Includes LDPC (Low Pressure Die Casting) latest technology to ensure data accuracy and a fast and reliable performance.

According to cross-coretech.com, the M7V series also features the highest quality NAND flash memory in TLC manufactured by Toshiba 15nm node, which generates cycles up to 2000 P / E, beating all its competitors. In addition, the exclusive firmware PlexNitro, performance can be optimized in SLC mode without sacrificing space of the SSD; extending the maximum performance.

The new Plextor M7V series represents the newest generation of standard SSDs, tailored to the needs of the general user and offering flawless performance and transfer speed of incomparable data. The M7V series also comes with a longer life time compared to other products of the same level, with the addition of optimal components and the development of a unique firmware combined with advanced manufacturing technology.

All Plextor SSDs undergo rigorous inspections teams most advanced SSD test in the world.not a single mistake or failure (error zero) is not allowed to offer the user the highest level of quality and stability. Through professional reading conditions simulation / actual writing, both M7V series as all Plextor SSD drives offer a measured time between failures (MTBF) of up to 1.5 million hours, significantly outperforming the reliability of long use term and ensuring the security of valuable data.

The units offer speed sequential transfer rates up to 560 MB / s reading in three models, with up to 500 MB / s write for the model 128 GB, 530 MB / s write for the model 256 GB and 530 MB / s write for the 512GB model.

Plextor has not disclosed the prices that will have these new models.

Doogee Y300 review. Doogee X5S review. Let’s start talking about the Y300 – designwise, it is reminiscent of the Sony Xperia but obviously much more affordable and with different characteristics. It is a smartphone 5-inch HD screen (1,280 x 720 pixels) IPS matrix that works with the latest version of Android operating system.

To enhance this display Doogee integrated into the Y300 MediaTek MTK6735 quad-core 64-bit SoC running at a speed of 1.3 Ghz, accompanied by a GPU Mali T720 and 2 GB of RAM to ensure smooth operation in any type of applications. Internal storage as the manufacturer has installed 32 GB of ROM, expandable memory using a micro SD card up to 32GB more.

This terminal input range incorporates a front camera of 8MP, while the rear, signed by Sony (IMX219 model) is 13 Megapixel and includes LED flash, auto focus and stabilizer. The terminal has Bluetooth 4.0, GPS, A-GPS, OTA, OTG, Dual SIM (Micro SIM) and connectivity with 2G, 3G and 4G networks. The battery is 2,200 mAh, ensuring sufficient autonomy for a day of intensive, two to three days with normal use.

On the other hand we have the X5S Doogee, a terminal also input range but lower than the Y300, which is reflected in a much lower price and therefore more suitable for all budgets. This X5S also has a 5-inch IPS display with HD resolution (1280 x 720 pixels), but in this case still has Android 5.1 operating system.

The SoC built-in X5S is the same as the previous model (MediaTek MTK 6735) but functioning in this case a 1 Ghz in its four cores, also accompanied by an ARM GPU Mali T720 but in this case the RAM has been reduced just 1 GB and 8 GB internal storage, but fortunately they are expandable up to 32 additional GB with micro SD memory card.

The cameras are also somewhat lower, because while the front has 5 Mpx, the rear has 8MP, but also has LED flash, auto focus and stabilizer software. Its battery is 2,400 mAh, and since the processor has a lower consumption this means that battery life is a bit higher, about two days intensive and between 3 and 4 days with moderate use.

Renice X9 review. Renice Technology, a Chinese march focused on storage systems , high – end, has launched the first SSD market with 2 TB capacity that has connection RSATA (Rugged SATA), a type of connector especially designed for use in situations where there a lot of vibration, undesirable movements or current peaks.

Renice X9 review. The usual SATA connector consists of a line of pin planes is very easy to connect and disconnect, but it is also quite sensitive to movements or vibrations that could cause the connector to move. The RSATA connector is specially designed for situations in which there is unwanted movements, resolving intermittent contact between the connector and the result of vibration and shock device.

Basically it is intended for use in cars or industrial systems moving as it solves these potential problems using a two-layer connector with elongated pin instead of the flat line standard SATA connector pins. Certainly this connector is single side SSD to the motherboard connects to the SATA connector standard so it is compatible with any motherboard with a standard SATA connectors. Of course the manufacturer provides the necessary connection cable.

The launch of Renice X9 RSATA provide a reliable storage solution for high capacity and the situations we have explained above. The device employs a controlling own SATA3 RS3502-IT and NAND chips manufactured by Toshiba to ensure, according to the manufacturer, durability and lifetime of the device between 2 and 3 times higher than current market SSDs (non-industrial).

The manufacturer that itself has not disclosed device performance data, but would be expected the usual 500 MB / s reading and writing (there will be around the thing). Nor has it said anything about the price or release date, a fact that would be interesting to know since the end of the day increasingly are becoming more common devices solid state these capabilities and is expected fierce competition in the market.
