MAISON MARGIELA’S TAKE ON THE NEW SAMSUNG GALAXY Z FLIP4

Android mobile users are in for a treat. With the new special version of Galaxy Z Flip4, cutting-edge technology and unconventional fashion are combined in Samsung’s first joint venture with Maison Margiela. The luxury French fashion house also add their own spin from the UX design to the accessories.
In the past, Giorgio Armani x Samsung, Prada x LG, Dior Reveries, Moschino, and many others have added their House spin on mobile gadgets from this epochal era. But now, its Maison Margiela’s turn.

The perfect shade of white was “woven” into the smartphone using a drop of grey and Maison Margiela’s distinctive matte solid white colour. The phone also uses Maison Margiela’s décortiqué process, which exposes an object’s core by removing its exterior layers, and it has delicate, translucent lines that represent the phone’s internal circuits.
Turning to the accessories, two recognisable phone covers are featured. First, a distinctive leather cover that embodies the house’s renowned ‘bianchetto’ process, which distils an item’s attractiveness down to its four stitching symbol, representing anonymity. The case has been overpainted to produce a distinctive texture that can change over time, simulating a canvas. The second cover takes a different approach to Maison Margiela’s recognisable number coding ring, representing the DNA of the brand.

According to Samsung, this brand x tech partnership is a perfect collaboration as both brands “believe in breaking with convention and allowing people to celebrate their individuality.”

IS THE NEXT IPHONE TO HAVE A TRIPLE CAMERA?

Every year the anticipated release of Apple’s new iPhone sparks rumours, and this year is no different. It’s hard to believe how the tech giant can improve the already effortless phone without it transforming into year 3030 futuristic object, but somehow it does.
It is rumoured that the 2019 iPhone will feature a triple-lens camera solution. This will include not one, not two, but three cameras on the back with a 12 megapixel lens. A dual lens was introduced with this years iPhone 7 Plus. a three-lens rear camera would offer more advantages, including greatly improved low-light performance and even better image quality, if the report proves to be accurate.

WHAT WE KNOW ABOUT THE APPLE WATCH 4

Apple have recently released the Apple Watch Series 4 with two bigger and better notable differences. At the heart of any watch design is the ability to tell the time, duh, and Jobs’ minions have made this even easier with making the watch face 30% bigger. Secondly, the speaker is now 50% louder and is relocated to the opposite side of the microphone to make phone calls clearer and reduce echo.
On the edge-to-edge screen you can find information like stocks and shares, heart rate, follow scores from sports teams, flight information, alongside the basic calendar and weather, which are so yesterday’s news compared to this.
Fancy a bike ride this weekend? Apple have increased the outdoor workout time to six hours, with full GPS tracking for it’s entirety to last your outdoor activities. Fall of your bike embarrassingly and hope no one notices? You’re mistaken. The watch can now detect falls from analysing wrist trajectory and impact, awkward. Oh and if it detects no movement for 1 minute after said fall, it” automatically call and message your emergency contact using the SOS feature. We can’t tell if this is super clever or super annoying.
Apple’s clever creation is available in three aluminium finishes-silver, gold, and space grey. But, as if this isn’t enough, you can also flash it off in gold stainless steel with a Milanese band. These band’s can also work with any Apple predecessors, they’ve really thought of it all with this watch. No doubt in a year’s time they would’ve thought of more innovative designs that we’ll be shocked at, again.

YOUTUBE AR BEAUTY TRY-ON IS HERE

Beauty bloggers have taken Youtube by a storm, playing a key role for makeup and beauty brands to advertise their products directly to an audience. From product reviews to hauls, viewers stay engaged, but there’s always that one question that slips through the mind: Will that look product good on me?
Thanks to AR, Google has created a way for viewers to virtually try on makeup while watching the tutorials and reviews. MAC Cosmetics were the first to launch the AR Beauty try on, through their lipstick campaign where viewers could try on the different lip shades on the bottom of the split screen.
As you can imagine, this largely benefits the beauty brands that implement the AR try-on considering viewers will pay more attention to the products. It was recorded by Google that 30% of users that activated the AR experience in the YouTube iOS app spent on average 80 seconds trying on the virtual lipstick. We’re looking forward to see what other AR and interactive media develops within YouTube.
