Google Pixel 2

Today we are going to be talking about the newest phone in the Pixel series, the Google Pixel 2. First, we will be talking about its design. From the back of the phone, it looks quite nice with an aluminium back. The aluminium on the back isn't shiny which I prefer because a shiny back leads to loads of fingerprints which makes the phone look less beautiful. On the back, there is also the piece of glass covering the camera and the flash just like last year from the Pixel. This is said to improve connectivity to Wi-Fi and calls. The front side of the phone, in my opinion, isn't as good-looking as the back for 2017. The Google Pixel 2 still contains the big bezels on the top and bottom of the screen which is surprising. The 2 main phones Google is competing against is Apple and Samsung and both of those companies are turning to bezel-less displays. Other than that the overall display of the phone is good.

 The biggest feature Google is Advertising about this phone is its camera. It is said to be the best camera in any smartphone this year just like last year. It has a 12-megapixel f/1.8 lens to be exact which doesn't sound that good and the same as other flagship phones but is the way Google uses it to give users very good quality photos. People say the reason why it is better than the iPhone 8 and S8 because the photos on the Pixel 2 don't look as saturated and more life like. With the camera, they have also added the same feature as with the S8 where you can simply scan an object and it will give you the top results of what you scanned on google. The Google Pixel 2 also has IP67 water resistant which is expected of a flagship phone and also a thumbprint scanner. This phone has also taken the route of no return, the route of the no headphone jack :(. The Pixel 2 has a Snapdragon 835 and 4GB ram. It is running the latest Android 8.0 Oreo. Who else loves the names of the android systems? Anyways to sum up this paragraph here is a key feature table of the Pixel 2.

Rime

Today we're going to talk about a game called Rime. Rime is an adventure puzzle video game developed by Tequila Works. This game is gorgeous. The music is also really good. Although this game is really beautiful, there are some downsides. The puzzles in this game are not very challenging which might be fine to some of you, but for me wasn't as satisfying. I will now try and tell you guys what Rime is without spoiling it. (I'm not good at this). You are a small boy that wakes up on a magical island from a shipwreck.Throughout the game, you have to solve multiple puzzles to find out what happened to the character. This game kind of reminds me of The Last Guardian, just not as good. I don't mean that in a bad way, this game is really good. Just not as good. I recommend this game to anyone who just wants to have a break from hardcore games and play a nice, peaceful game.

Mario Odyssey

Today we are going to talk about Mario Odyssey. I'm pretty sure that you have already heard about this game but if you haven't read further on. Mario Odyssey is a game developed and published by Nintendo for the Nintendo Switch. In this 3D platformer, Mario and his hat, Cappy travel across various worlds to rescue Princess Peach from Brower who plans to marry her. The whole plot is the same. What is different is Cappy. Cappy is a spirit who possesses Mario's hat. If his hat is placed on certain characters or object, Mario can take control over them. This game mechanic allows Mario to access loads of abilities he couldn't do before. For example, at the start of the game, you take control of a frog. This allows Mario to jump higher. This game mechanic, I find, is a really well implemented in the game. This game reminds me of Mario Galaxy series where you could disguise yourself as Ghosts or bees. This game has won a whole lot of rewards as you can see from this table

Weird Technology Wednesday- Remote Control Wand

Image
Today on Weird Technology Wednesday we are going to talk about a magic wand......A magic wand that controls your TV "with a flick of a wrist". This device is perfect for a person for me. I love Harry Potter but I am also lazy. Make a TV remote that you can control your TV with a flick of a wrist that looks like a wand and perfect. This thing doesn't just work on TV's, it works on anything that needs an infrared remote. This wand has up to 13 gestures pre-built in, some of which include opening a DVD drawer by pulling the wand back or rolling the wand in your wand in your hand to turn up the volume. With this wand, there is also an option to go into learning mode where you can program it to do whatever you like. In my opinion, this wand is pretty cool. What do you think?
