During the evening yesterday, Huawei in the guise of its brand spin-off Honor has officially announced a new top of the line phablet that definitely offers some interesting features at a price that could be considered by many to be very attractive. Honor V8 therefore forms to be a major competitor of the entire smartphone category in this first half of 2016.

The terminal data sheet provides a body made entirely of metal which encloses a HISILICON Kirin 950 processor, 4 GB of RAM and 32 or 64GB of internal memory, depending on the version chosen. In the front side of the smartphone we find a 5.7 inch diagonal display capable of offering a resolution of 2560x1440 pixels, or 1920x1080 pixels, also in this case will depend on the user's choice at the time of purchase.

Do not miss the expandability of memory, guaranteed by a microSD slot which can accommodate a maximum capacity of 128GB. In the back of the smartphone we then a 12-megapixel resolution camera. Actually it is a dual camera, equipped with six optical lenses, focal aperture of f / 2.2, laser autofocus and LED flash dual tone. A solution that still incorporates only aesthetically as seen on P9. Although there are no details on this fact, we can think that the operation of the dual sensor will definitely be more similar to what was seen on Honor 6 Plus.

In the rear of the body then we find a sensor for fingerprint recognition, a feature now extremely widespread even on mid-range smartphone, while the bottom of the frame have a USB connector Type C. Interesting implementation on the right side of a button physical that can be configured to be able to open applications quickly and have immediate access to voice commands.

The Silent Revolution of On-Device AI: Why the Cloud Is No Longer King

Introduction For years, artificial intelligence has meant one thing: the cloud. Whether you’re asking ChatGPT a question, editing a photo with AI tools, or getting recommendations on Netflix — those decisions happen on distant servers, not your device. But that’s changing. Thanks to major advances in silicon, model compression, and memory architecture, AI is quietly migrating from giant data centres to the palm of your hand. Your phone, your laptop, your smartwatch — all are becoming AI engines in their own right. It’s a shift that redefines not just how AI works, but who controls it, how private it is, and what it can do for you. This article explores the rise of on-device AI — how it works, why it matters, and why the cloud’s days as the centre of the AI universe might be numbered. What Is On-Device AI? On-device AI refers to machine learning models that run locally on your smartphone, tablet, laptop, or edge device — without needing constant access to the cloud. In practi...

Apple’s AI Push: Everything We Know About Apple Intelligence So Far

Apple’s WWDC 2025 confirmed what many suspected: Apple is finally making a serious leap into artificial intelligence. Dubbed “Apple Intelligence,” the suite of AI-powered tools, enhancements, and integrations marks the company’s biggest software evolution in a decade. But unlike competitors racing to plug AI into everything, Apple is taking a slower, more deliberate approach — one rooted in privacy, on-device processing, and ecosystem synergy. If you’re wondering what Apple Intelligence actually is, how it works, and what it means for your iPhone, iPad, or Mac, you’re in the right place. This article breaks it all down.   What Is Apple Intelligence? Let’s get the terminology clear first. Apple Intelligence isn’t a product — it’s a platform. It’s not just a chatbot. It’s a system-wide integration of generative AI, machine learning, and personal context awareness, embedded across Apple’s OS platforms. Think of it as a foundational AI layer stitched into iOS 18, iPadOS 18, and m...

Billionaire clothing dynasty heiress launches Everybody & Everyone to make fashion sustainable

Veronica Chou’s family has made its fortune at the forefront of the fast fashion business through investments in companies like Michael Kors and Tommy Hilfiger . But now, the heiress to an estimated $2.1 billion fortune is launching her own company, Everybody & Everyone , to prove that the fashion industry can be both environmentally sustainable and profitable. There’s no argument about the negative impacts of the fashion industry on the environment. The textiles industry primarily uses non-renewable resources — on the order of 98 million tons per year. That includes the oil to make synthetic fibers, fertilizers to grow cotton, and toxic chemicals to dye, treat, and produce the textiles used to make clothes. The greenhouse gas footprint from textiles production was roughly 1.2 billion tons of CO2 equivalent in 2015 — more than all international flights and maritime shipments combined (and a lot of those maritime shipments and international flights were hauling clothes). The lit...
