Samsung Galaxy S Light Luxury now Official

The Galaxy S Light Luxury was just announced in China packing very modest specs, the device is pretty much a "lite" variant of the Galaxy S8. The 5.8' screen from the S8 makes a return keeping the same dimensions as its bigger brother. The Light S features the same Super AMOLED panel with 1,080 x 2,220 px resolution (18.5:9). The phone has a single camera on the back - 16 MP sensor and an f/1.7 aperture. It can record 4K video at 30 fps, but OIS is absent (surprisingly). The selfie camera has an 8 MP sensor with an f/1.7 aperture. The Snapdragon 660 chipset inside the Galaxy S Light Luxury should offer similar CPU performance to the Galaxy S8's 835. It does have 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of storage. Given the Galaxy S Light Luxury's size, it shouldn’t be a surprise that there’s a 3,000 mAh battery – the same capacity as the Galaxy S8. There’s support for fast wireless and wired charging, the latter of which goes over the USB-C port....

Tesla Unveils the Tesla Semi Truck





Tesla unveiled today its very first all-electric semi truck. It can be seen that the design is a very beautiful and futuristic looking one. Although that’s more like its basic catchy feature, the truck seems to boast of a whole lot of other capabilities.

First off, Design of the truck was based on a bullet. It would be exceptionally fast for a truck going from 0-60mph in 5 seconds with the former fastest moving truck being Ford F-150 (although this is a pick-up truck, but it still counts since the tesla semi is faster than it). Also while carrying a maximum of Eighty thousand pounds (80000lb), it can still hit 60mph in just 20 seconds. Owing to its aerodynamic design, it has a better drag coefficient of 0.36 which is even better than the Bugatti chiron that has a drag coefficient of 0.38. 
 The truck will be able to hit a 500 miles range on maximum weight at 60mph compared to the standard 250 miles. Elon Musk explained this as a worse-case scenario feature which allows the vehicle to carry less load for longer distance. The Tesla semi also has a motor on each wheel which helps to eliminate the problem of jack-knifing. 




This can be said to be the most distinct feature of the truck, the possibility of eliminating jack-knifing. But how does it manage to do it? There are safety measures put in place in the design of the vehicle to check that. This is done by utilizing the electric drivetrain which is the feature that allows each wheel to have independent motors. The truck can sense the weight distribution on each of those wheels and hence try everything within its power to avoid jack-knifing automatically regardless of the load that is carried by the truck provided it doesn’t exceed the limit given. 
It also has mega solar charger with a 30 minutes charge giving up to 400 miles of range. Tesla would have this chargers go worldwide to ensure that people can charge at their destination and source at ease. Also the trucks will come with an Auto pilot that will aid it to keep on its lane and also braking. 

It is estimated to cost about $5000 and production is due to start in 2019.
