CNET Review

The competition in the portable Bluetooth speaker arena is much stiffer these days and the Bose SoundLink Bluetooth Speaker III isn't as big of a standout as it was when the first version launched in 2011. It also isn't as feature-rich as some models. Still, its sound and battery life have improved (the battery life is a bigger jump than the sound), and its build quality remains top notch.

We could sit here and argue which competing models sound as good (or almost as good) for less money. However, at the end of the day, the Bose SoundLink Bluetooth Speaker III is a high-quality product that's an easy speaker to recommend if you can afford it. Audiophiles may not be wowed, but most people will be duly impressed by the quality of the sound it produces for its size.

Performance
As noted, Bose says the new speaker sounds better than its predecessors. The speaker is equipped with four neodymium transducers and dual-opposing passive radiators which, according to Bose, "combine with a new digital signal processing algorithm and improved electronics to play louder than its predecessor, while maintaining balanced and natural sound at higher listening levels."

The goal with the SoundLink III was to get the speaker to play even louder (without distorting) and also sound a little better in the process. As always, getting there requires the finessing of both the hardware and the software that processes the sound and shapes it in a way that makes your ears think it sounds good (there's a bit of trickery involved, especially with a speaker that has little-to-no stereo separation).

Mission accomplished with the III; though all these small speakers have their limitations and the SoundLink III is no exception. The bass is slightly fuller and the overall sound slightly more detailed. And the speaker performs quite well with a lot of material but not everything.

It plays louder than its predecessors and doesn't distort at higher volumes, though to steer clear of distortion it rolls off the bass and sounds like it's restraining itself to keep from going off a cliff. Pop tracks like Ellie Goulding's "Burn" sounded pretty punchy and relatively clean. But it was hit or miss with techno tracks. The bass can sometimes seem a little subdued at higher volumes, so just don't expect real thumping bass with a lot of oomph to it. Then again, as I've said before, it's just not fair to expect subwoofer-level performance from a speaker the size of a hardcover book.

The reality is the SoundLink III is designed to play at more modest volume levels (it sounds best when it isn't pushed) and I think it offers a more detail and bass at lower volumes than its predecessors. In other words, it seems to sound a little richer at lower volumes, which is a good thing because that's how a lot of folks end up using this speaker -- as a background music generator.

Lenovo S939 is the first octa core phone from the house of Lenovo. Basically it’s a phablet with whooping 6 inch 720p screen. More a 6 inch device 720p resolution doesn’t look like too impressive as it considerably reduces pixel density in display. However, the USP of the phone is the octa core MediaTek MT6592 SoC that couples 8 ARM Cortex A7 CPU clocked at 1.7 GHz and Mali 450-MP4 GPU clocked at 700 MHz. It also has just 1 GB RAM for multitasking.

Other features of Lenovo S939 are 8 GB ROM, micro SD card slot, dual SIM card slots, 8 MP back camera, 1.6 MP front camera, 3000 mAh battery etc. Overall specs doesn’t look too bad.

Canon Rebel 1500d/ T1

athur — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 22:56:58 +0800

this is what i found out:

The Canon Rebel 1500D/T1 will be announced very soon – intended for sale during the Christmas season. The key specs:

* Same 12MP sensor as 450D/XSi
* DIGIC IV
* Movie mode added: up to HD 1080, only 1 frame rate option at that size, 30fps
* Fixed LCD 460K dots
* No significant changes in size, weight or price. Price will of course be close to 1000D’s MSRP at launch
* May have sensor shift stabilization
* 3.5fps

anyone heard of this, is this a pure crap or its true. i wonder if i should wait for that

Canon 1000D vs 500D

athur — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 12:48:29 +0800

Newbie into photography, probably not into phatography (dont know yet, whether really got interested in this or not), but just wanna get a decent camera with good quality pics ...

want to buy an entry level camera, with a budget around 3K.
heard that 500d is very good with the HD movie, 15MP. but i think i rarely take movie with this camera.

but will the high ISO & MP (12k +, 15MP) in 500d, help to produce a better pics, compare to 1000d which give u a max of 1600k ISO & 10MP?

how bout the DIGIC Procs, where one is using DIGIC 3 & the other is DIGIC 4?

Got suggestion from friend to take a 1000d and buy some lens...
