Samsung Kalmia: New netbook with LTE connection.


Samsung launched to the market the version of the Netbook N150, the first in its kind with LTE technology (Long Term Evolution), which make it able to gain access to the net from anywhere at high speed.





The new netbook was baptized as Kalmia, for being equipped with the LTE modem of the same name that lets you download files 100 Mbps. If we recall, the earlier versions of the Samsung N150 had only HSPA 3G and Wi-Fi connectivity.

LTE is a data transmission technology near to 4G, which makes the user reach major speed and superior spectrum then 3G nets.



The Samsung N150 Kalmia has a low-consumption LED screen and 10.1" anti-reflex that reduces the issues with the light. This gives you the chance to watch videos and pictures with high clarity, even under intense light.

Thanks to a 6-cell battery, Samsung N150 Kalmia can make it up to 8 hours and a half with energy, meaning the user can keep sending e-mails and uploading pictures without having to worry about their machine shutting down.

The Samsung N150 Kalmia is design over an integrated hinge. This means that the screen joins the keyboard in a continuous way, even when it's open, letting adjust the screen a lot easier.



 The construction of the Samsung N150 Kalmia foresees an intensive utilization, that is why the case is desing to resist knocks and falls. Inside we can find installed an Intel Atom 2 processor at 1.66 GHz, a 250 GB hard drive and 1 GB of RAM.

South Korea runs for the 5G technology prize.

No surprise, nowadays saying "Asians" is to say top technology. Japanese devices are of great quality, Chinese devices are.... well, not that great... buuut they've been improving through the last years. Now it's the time for Korea to shine again, working on the future 5G technology (man, yesterday they talked about 4G, now they're planning on the 5G, and I'm still trying to get me a 3G phone).

As you may know well, Samsung and LG plan on becoming heavyweight champions in mobile communications (I guess they plan on becoming even heavier). Now, listen up. This country's idea is to invest around 60 million won (which is to say around 58.449.293 USD) in the next years for 5G technology development.

What could we expect from 5G? I don’t want to go sci-fi but I feel pushed to do so, because everything I can think of is already featured in a phone. It will certainly bring us amazing stuff, but probably only improved services. The day phones (and basically any computer) are able to deliver coffee by transferring material via internet, that day ladies and gentlemen I will be ready to rest in peace.
