living into a flexible and immersive home theater experience watching movies

with the projector is an immersive experience with a unique atmosphere but

the traditional product has limitations due to positioning dimension

connectivity and projection angle this system is composed of a smart base a

powerful speaker and a flexible hub where connect all the devices supported

by a wireless technology the smart base has the ability to transfer video output

directly to the DLP projector for a complete wire-free experience usually

all the projectors have some limitation due to positioning dimension and overall

the design they look pretty the same each other

a squared plastic form white or black with bad ergonomic and user experience

they are designed like a household appliances but for Jacobo Mauro they

deserve more importance worthy of the experience they creates he started to

think the product differently first of all the form factor which want to be

compact to simplify the positioning and smart to make it easy the regulation of

the inclination for example everything want to be intuitive clean interface on

the projector and even on the remote the main frame is in metal and the stand in

Italian marble which gives to the object elegance and stability the cylindrical

shape is the heart of the product it's split in two parts and one of these is

transparent looking through the frosted glass you can spot the inner part which

evokes the shape of old projectors the project has been published on balance

and had a really good response from the community it's good to see the designer

approach trying to simplify everything and removing all the superfluous to

reach a good result

Halloween Edition: Is a Zombie Outbreak Possible? - Duration: 2:47.

With zombies popping up so much in pop culture,

you might begin to wonder:

Is a zombie outbreak possible?

(Growl)

(Slow music)

If the three zombie movies I've seen

have taught me anything is

it's the zombie outbreak starts with a virus.

So I went to speak to UTRGV assistant professor Dr. Upal Roy,

who works in the health and biomedical sciences department.

There is certainly no relation between virus and zombies, okay?

That interview was shorter than expected.

This a pretty popular misconception that

they have about virus and zombies.

Virus is a tiny, little, very tiny little infectious particle,

which always needs a host to survive.

A virus needs a living host.

And if you're part of the "zombies are dead people" camp,

well, a dead object can't serve as a living host for a virus.

Viruses need their host to replicate or survive.

But what about another virus, like rabies?

Can that be connected to zombies?

I don't think there's any connection between rabies and zombies.

However, there are some things you can do

for some of the viruses that are known.

So there are different ways we can prevent a virus

from getting into our body.

If it's a flu virus,

probably if you just protect yourself by washing hands.

Don't go to the exposed area.

If the virus that actually transmits through biological fluid,

so you have to make sure that you

don't come into contact of those kind of infectious material.

Since my interview with Dr. Roy was so short,

it gave me a chance to ask him

about his current research,

which involves a virus that's all too real.

So the virus that we are especially working on

is called human immuno deficiency virus or HIV.

And as you may know, according to the Texas public health data,

the HIV infection is on rising in Rio Grande Valley.

Most of the drug that is out there for the treatment,

it's very pricey.

Not everybody can afford that.

So we're trying to develop a treatment

which is much cheaper and much more effective.

And more importantly, we're trying to design these medicine

in such a way that they don't have to take this medicine every day.

They can take this maybe once a week

or maybe twice a month or something,

so they don't have to go through the side effects of these medicine.

So being a cheaper and taking it a lot less

would make this treatment much more successful

than what we have today.

The National Institutes of Health gave UTRGV

a grant of more than $430,000

to create the next generation of anti-HIV drugs.

So I'll let Dr. Roy get back to that important research.

Meanwhile… if a zombie outbreak isn't possible,

then why is it so ingrained in our pop culture?

Next I'll speak to a UTRGV pop culture expert.

The Camera on the OPPO Find X Is a Standout – Power Up - Duration: 6:49.

- Alright guys.

Look at the screen on this phone.

It nearly covers the whole front.

Cool huh?

But you're probably wondering,

where is my selfie camera?

Well, come closer.

Oh yeah!

This is the Find X.

The top smartphone by Chinese mobile maker OPPO.

And it's a bold one.

The pop-out camera is only the showiest of it's features.

These phones are available in most of Asia,

and more recently,

they became available in Australia and Europe,

where it costs €999 or $1148.

That's right!

Just because it's Chinese does not mean

it's a low budget phone.

No sir!

The phone is slated to arrive in the UK,

but no price or date

has been announced for it on the market.

There's still no indication that the phone

will make it's way to America for sale.

But, that doesn't mean that we can't try it out.

Especially cause this phone has a lot to offer.

Where to begin?

This smartphone is one of the most exotic phones out there.

Just the screen display is crazy.

It covers 93.8% of the front of the phone.

You heard it right, 93.8%.

But besides covering nearly the entire face of the phone,

the display is a curved AMOLED beauty.

It's bright, it has high resolution,

and it produces true blacks and vibrant colors.

No lie, this is among the best displays

we've ever come across.

It makes the phone look nearly frameless.

But that's not where the novelty ends

with the OPPO Find X.

Yes, the hidden camera that pops out

at the top of the phone has been it's claim to fame.

And it really is!

A motorized panel rises when you activate the camera,

then it tucks away once you're finished.

That's not all though.

The panel tucks in automatically

when it feels that the phone is falling.

This safety feature works with zero gravity detection.

And it hides the panel away in order to prevent

heavy damage to both the mechanism and the camera.

We tested it over and over again.

And it never missed.

Yes, we dropped the phone on purpose,

but mainly because we had to do a test.

But also because it was a little bit fun.

But this doesn't work if you throw the phone with force.

So, you might wanna keep your temper in check.

Since the panel is mechanical,

there's a cause for concern about eventual malfunction.

According to OPPO, they tested the motor

with over 300,000 activations.

That may be reassuring,

but once you get over the freshness of the idea,

you will find some practical issues.

Starting with the fact

that it isn't water resistant.

Precisely because of the motorized panel.

Worse even, what about water coming in

when the panel is out?

Or dust?

Or lint?

What if I wanna put a case on my phone?

It's a cool idea

but maybe not the most practical feature.

Beyond the perhaps overshadowing features

of the display and the camera,

the Find X still has more to show.

The back of the phone, for example,

is slightly curved

and has a glass finish that's captivating.

Whether you get the glacier blue or the bordeaux red,

which is the one I have right here,

when you move it,

it changes colors depending from the angle

that you're looking at it from.

So, that is a pretty cool thing

for the OPPO Find X.

The Find X is a smooth operator,

and it's pretty fast too!

After all, it comes with

a Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 chip set.

The one you find on most of

the top shelf Android phones.

Using the phone never felt sluggish.

It goes through every day tasks like nothing.

Maybe that's the reason why the battery

is not above average.

But it's a small price to pay for functionality.

This smartphone runs on ColorOS.

ColorOS is the Android 8.1 Oreo skin

that OPPO smartphones carry.

And it has a pastel-like look.

In the case of the Find X,

it helps showcase the vibrancy

of the display really well.

Although the phone runs well,

ColorOS has long been criticized for it's quirks.

Things like the lack of a daily settings entry,

which would enable you to ration the data usage

running in the background.

ColorOS is problematic with third party apps.

I think it's because OPPO has it's own app store

and they obviously want you to use those apps.

It's a biggie for us in the west

because most of those apps

are available only in Chinese.

You can still get the GooglePlay store

and install third party apps.

But you'll run into trouble that extends from

the Chinese only browser

to unwanted digital keyboard swaps

and disabled notifications by default

for third party apps.

The Find X comes with a dual rear camera

of 16 and 20 megapixels.

While the single front camera is 25 megapixels.

Yeah, the Find X is definitely made

for the selfie obsessed.

And it shows.

Not only is the frontal camera really good

but it also comes with a bunch of selfie oriented features.

At first glance, the app looks and feels

a lot like the iOS camera app.

The one you can find in all iPhones.

But once you start playing with it,

you realize it's more like a weird clone.

A weird clone that really wants you to look prettier.

It comes with an extra load of face lifting features

that you won't find on your average phone.

For example, it can slim your face

and it can also whiten your teeth,

so your pictures would look perfect.

But the one feature that really does

a makeover on you is what OPPO calls

the custom 3D beautified look.

And with the help of some AI,

it creates a 3D profile of your face.

Then you can apply beautifying adjustments,

like the one called Model or Delicacy to that profile.

The Find X is a well endowed phone

and it has a lot to offer.

Even if most of it's great features are overshadowed

by the hidden camera mechanism.

This OPPO has power and it has looks.

If it weren't for the limited availability

and some other quirks of the ColorOS,

I'd say it would be a top contender

to compete with the Samsung

and Apple flagships worldwide.

There are a lot of phones out there

packed with great features.

But I think that this OPPO definitely stands out

and not only because of the whole camera gimmick,

but because it's truly a great piece of hardware.

And that's all for the OPPO Find X.

Catch us next time with another cool device.
