In terms of spec for the 13.3-inch screen, it’s expected to weigh in at just over 1kg with a resolution of 920 x 1,080, contain 4GB of RAM, 16GB of storage and Samsung’s latest 2.1GHz Exynos 5 Octa processor. Its previous 2012 version was popular with consumers and Samsung hopes the latest version will be equally successful. The laptop, with the options of a 11.1-inch or 13.3-inch screen, should be a pretty reasonable all-round device at an equally reasonable price. The Wake’n Bacon, which has been available online to purchase for a number of years, refuses to dabble in mere imitation smell and sound and goes for the real thing, with a small, timed bacon cooker inside a rather large and impractical alarm clock.įor those who would rather just enjoy the smell, the bad news is Oscar Mayer has only officially released the smartphone attachment to competition winners in the US but it will no doubt start appearing online with people anxious to cash in on the novelty item.Ĭonsumer tech giant Samsung has announced it will launch the second version of its Google Chromebook, Chromebook 2, in April this year. Surprisingly, this is not the first alarm clock to implement the power of frying bacon as a means of getting you up in the morning.
To wit, food production company Oscar Mayer’s new bacon-scented iPhone attachment that will release a puff of bacon scent along with the sound of bacon grilling when your alarm goes off in a genius bit of marketing.
Smartphones that stink seem to be one of the latest trends to have appeared in the last year. The Chromecast has also yet to be released in the UK and Ireland.

However, the Chromecast differs greatly in that the device itself does not contain native apps but is rather a conduit to be used with PCs and Android devices, hence the less expensive cost of US$35. That is limited to a small number of apps but is expected to change as the company has recently opened up the streaming dongle to developers to work on their own apps. The device’s obvious competitor is Google’s own Google Chromecast, which offers a similar service. Details have not been released on when it will become available in Europe.

Now, however, this stand-alone device will work with any HDMI-ported TV (with a USB or plug socket power supply) and is expected to sell for about US$50 (€36). The first version came out in 2012, but was limited in its capabilities, given it could only work with a select list of Roku-ready TVs, which included not-so-well-known brands Insignia, Proscan and oCosmo. This is not the first time the company has released a streaming stick. Roku, the company behind the popular content streaming box, has decided to bring the size of the device down to a handy dongle that can be inserted into a TV’s HDMI port. A look at gadget happenings, as the Roku Streaming Stick will turn your regular TV into a smart one, a bacon-making alarm clock aims to help you rise and shine, and Samsung is to launch the Chromebook 2 next month.
