Dell Updates XPS 13 With 8th-Gen Intel Processors; Reveals Visor Mixed Reality Headset Price

Dell has now its XPS 13, Inspiron 5000, and Inspiron 7000 series laptops with Intel's latest eighth generation Kaby Lake processors. The Dell XPS 13 laptop, which still features the impressive design of the original and the the new Intel Core i7 chip, will be made available starting September 12 at $1,399.99 (roughly Rs. 89,600) but the company says that additional configurations will be made available from October.
Moving on to the Inspiron 5000 series laptops, the 13-inch and 15-inch variants of the 2-in-1 laptop will be receiving the new eighth generation Intel Core processors. In the Inspiron 7000 series of laptops, the standard variant and the Inspiron 7000 2-in-1will be receiving the updated processors. Also, the 17-inch variant of the Inspiron 7000 2-in-1 portable will get the new generation chips.
Separately, Dell has now announced that its Visor mixed-reality headset, which has been made specifically for Microsoft's Windows Mixed Reality platform, will be made available from October at a price of $349.99 (roughly Rs. 22,400). Customers can also choose to buy a bundle with the headset and two controllers for $449.99 (roughly Rs. 28,800). While the company has described Visor as a mixed-reality headset, it has notably shown only the VR capabilities of the wearable as of now, as pointed out in a separate report by The Verge.
To recall, Microsoft started taking pre-orders for the mixed-reality headsets from Acer and HP in May this year. Engadget points out that just like the headsets from Acer and HP, the wearable from the Dell will also come with 1440x1440 LCD panels and feature sufficient padding that would allow users to wear it comfortably for longer periods as well.
"Dell Visor takes advantage of the same technology used in the Microsoft HoloLens, including inside-out tracking cameras, with a 360 degree panoramic view. The headset itself is able to scan surroundings instead of satellite emitters positioned inside the room," the company said in its release. The Dell Visor will be made available at Microsoft and select Best Buy stores and BestBuy.com in the coming months.

7 Reasons why you need a Laptop Stand

Getting a laptop stand is a very good idea. So, if you still have some doubts as to why you need one take a look at these reasons: CLICKING HERE  https://bit.ly/2CroWuv  WILL GIVE YOU AN OVERVIEW OF A LAPTOP STAND 1. Better Ergonomic Design: Health experts recommend that the screen of your computer should be at eye level, and your shoulders should not slump while working on it. However, when you use a laptop, both the criteria cannot be fulfilled at the same time. You can either place your laptop at eye level, or you can work with your shoulders straight. Either way, your posture is not perfect. The laptop stand for desk is designed in such a way that your laptop screen can be placed at eye level, and you can also keep your shoulders straight.

Nest’s Thermostat E has a new design, a cheaper price, and almost all the same features

Nest is debuting a new version of its thermostat today, the first truly different model since the product was introduced in 2011. It’s called the Nest Thermostat E, and it can do nearly everything the regular Nest Thermostat can do, except it’s cheaper and housed in a brand new design — one that’s intentionally much, much plainer. Rather than a glossy metal ring with a big, bright screen in the middle of it, this version of the Nest Thermostat looks a lot more like other, duller thermostats. It’s a relatively plain white puck, and when it’s on a wall, it’s really easy to ignore. But that’s the point: Nest is trying to make a version of its thermostat with appeal beyond the gadget-loving crowd. It wants this to be a thermostat that you buy and forget about, but still get all the benefits that come with having some built-in intelligence. Namely, a reduced heating bill. The simplified interface is really nice, although the display itself looks a bit fuzzy. I know it’...
