Every year, there will be excellent notebooks, 2 in 1 equipment, but it is not a major innovation every year. At this year's CES show, we found that there has been a change from many angles of view.
The new trend allows us to be curious and let us excite. Yes, some things are destined to die, but some of them will become new standards in the next few years.
Intel and AMD station
At the end of 2017, Intel was announced by Intel and AMD, and the history of cooperation was unprecedurious. Looking back in history, the two companies are fighting for the front, but now they have handed manual words, they are injecting vitality for independent GPU market, making competition more intense. Two companies cooperated to launch Intel H Series 8-generation CPU, install Radeon RX VEGA M display chip, from AMD.
We see two new products, they have new components, one is Dell XPS 15 2 in 1 notebook, and one is HP Spectre X360 15. They are all 2 products, in other words, the notebook can rotate 360 degrees, as a flat plate. Because the VEGA display chip is installed, the game performance is relatively strong, and VR can even support VR. So far, we cannot evaluate the machine, but Intel promises to us, saying its performance can be better than NVIDIA GTX 1050 or GTX 1060, how do you want to see what chip you use.
The new chip also has an Intel Hades Canyon NUC, although these products are not mainstream, they are injected into new blood into the PC market, and believe that DIY enthusiasts will like it. Small computers can be customized, upgrade, and now also equipped with stronger graphics.
HD VR helmet
It's really unexpected, HTC brings us surprises and launched a Vive Pro in the media conference. This is a new helmet that has been designed with the original Vive, the resolution is upgraded (reaching 2880x1600), and the design of the headband has also changed. Finally, the resolution of the image has increased by 78%, which looks clearer, and it is easier to read the text. The difference between the new version is quite obvious.
We also tried the Pimax 8K VR helmet, which is made in a small company. Last year, this company financing the website of crowdfunding, quite successful. New helmet installation two 3840x2160 LCD screens. Technically, although there is no 8K level, its resolution is indeed much higher than Vive Pro. There is also a little more important, this helmet is super width, reaching 200 degrees, and Vive Pro only 110 degrees. Factors affecting the immersion experience In addition to resolution, there is a wider vision.
These two companies have proved to us, enhance resolution, expand their views, and is important to enhance the overall experience of VR.
Gao Tong 2 in 1 notebook
Speaking of ARM 2 in 1 product, you may not be waiting. Recently, the future of such products seems to be more bright, some people want the price of cheap, and the battery life is very long, and you may want to take a look at the ARM 2 in 1 product. Now we have 3 in the 2-in-1 PC, which installed the Snapdragon 845 processor, is right, drive Windows 10 PC with a smartphone chip. The three PCs are ASUS NOVAGO, Lenovo MIIX 630 and HP Envy X2.
All three machines say that they can end their own for at least 20 hours, if standby, time is more than 20 hours, and can be connected to 4G LTE networks. From a creative, such a 2-in-1 device is more like a smartphone, not very much like a traditional notebook. Honestly, new products may change the way we use 2-in-1 device.
Will Snapdragon 2? Will it be the future of calculation? Maybe, but "the devil is detail". We still don't know how much ENVY X2 does not know which runners will support such a device. In the next five years, we will not fully embrace high-pass PC, but if the built-in LTE function is not popular, we should be strange.
BFGD debut
Really, the OLED display is absent again, but a distinct display raises his head, it may have a significant impact on future game display industries. What we said is BFGD (BIG FORMAT GAMING DISPLAY), it is NVIDIA you want, which is equivalent to the ultimate game display, or it can be said to be TV. The display size reaches 65 inches, the refresh rate reaches 120 Hz, supports HDR and G-Sync, with a resolution of 4K. The display is installed on the LED screen, the brightness reaches 1000 nits, honestly, whether it is the size of the display, has not heard of the brightness.
From the shape and size, BFGD is really like a TV, but it is not equipped with a remote control, so it is a game display. The display has built-in NVIDIA SHIELD, watching 4K HDR streaming media content is certainly a lot, but also supports voice assistants and other Android TV functions.
I am very happy to see Acer, ASUS and HP support BFGD, the future, it will definitely become a trend. Don't expect BFGDs soon, will replace traditional TV or game displays, but will not replace it in a few years? really do not know.
Calculating the future makes it clear.
In the new industry, CPU and GPU become more important. There is a good example, it is an unmanned car, which requires powerful calculation. At this year's CES show, we saw Xavier, it was a new chip launched by NVIDIA, specifically for automatic driving cars. Xavier has great potential, which is amazed. For this reason, we have given it the highest science and technology award from the exhibition.
NVIDIA wants to be Intel in the field of unmanned vehicles, and Intel is not willing to show weakness, run coming out to talk about the development of future processors. In the subject speech, Intel talks about the focus is data: What do we do in the future? How to deal with data? Intel introduced the two data processing techniques that they were developing: First, the quantum chip, the second is the calculation of the neurological morphology. The latter is a bit awkward, but the former is getting clearer, because Intel has developed 49 superconducting quantum chips, named "Tangle Lake". Intel revealed the chip on the booth. Intel also said that as the rapid speed of the collected data increased, the ability of the chip also enhanced.
Quantum calculations are the future, at the CES show, IBM also shows 50 pieces of quantum computers. At operation, the computer itself requires 105 square feet of space, isolates all heat, electricity, electromagnetic noise, demanding. In fact, IBM demonstrates the quantum computer I / O subsystem, which may be the coolest thing at the CES exhibition. With machine learning and AI, handling technology ushered in the new revolution, everything has just begun.
