Roundup of tech news 31st august

With September just coming up over the horizon, and what are we expecting, well we're expecting a release of iOS 6 and get it out of beta and became available for the general market and then there's the iPhone 5 or the iPhone 6 or even the iPhone SJ, whatever it's called we are expecting a new iPhone and maybe in the last quarter of this year, a new iPad or an iPad mini. well i'll talk about that when it comes up in the forever thriving tech world. Here comes the tech news of this week.

With the Apple VS samsung patent war over, There's a new step afoot, Samsung have been dropping the prices of their smartphones to nearly 5% to 10% off. This is a result of the one billion dollars samsung had to give apple due to their patent infringment. What are samsung doing about this. Well if apple bring out an iPhone 5 with 4G LTE, samsung are planning on sueing apple due to samsung having a patent against 4G LTE in devices. They aren't suing everyone else with smartphone equipped with 4G LTE so this could and probably will be a direct hit against apple to what they did to them.

4K displays yes 4K!! what does 4K mean? well imagine how big of a difference between Standard definition (SD) and high definition (HD) there was in colour, saturation and overall the pixel density. Well 4K display is 4 times the quality found in the highest end HD displays. and there's a massive difference between them. remember when you first got a HD telvision and you were flicking back and forth between channels to see if there was a big enough change to justify a HD TV, well with 4K display, you can see the difference straight away. I'm not just talking about SD to 4K i mean 1080p HD to 4K. there's a massive difference, the blacks are crushed with greater depth (no that's not racist, it's a colour correction term) Colours look so bright and vivid and i honestly think this is the resolution James cameron was going for with Avatar. HD quality movies and games look brilliant but once you've seen the a 4K display, HD will appear pixelated.

IFA 2012 is happening right now and since i'm not a big enough tech blogger, or have a fancy youtube channel to have access to the IFA floor so i have to rely on other tech bloggers to give me a roundup and a daily information download.

Thanks for reading
