Nintendo 3DS XL Full Specification: Games Console

Nintendo bets that gamers want to play games in 3D without wearing polarized glasses, and the Nintendo 3DS XL improves the glasses-free 3D display of the 3DS family with a larger screen and a more durable build.

The system is easy to use, and if you do not like the glasses-free 3D, you can easily adjust the level of 3D or turn the 3D off with its slider. If you already own a 3DS, upgrading to the XL forces you to re-purchase all of your digital games and apps. Still, the 3DS family has the best games on a mobile category, and the Nintendo 3DS XL is the best handheld console available and winner of the Top Ten Reviews Gold Award.

Microsoft Launches Gestures Beta App For Lumia

Gestures Beta App For Lumia
Gestures Beta App For Lumia

Microsoft has been working on some interesting gestures for Windows Phone that will allow you to interact with your device without having to touch the display, and the company is now ready to show off those new gestures by launching an app in beta.

The app, called Gestures Beta, is sort of like downloading a gesture pack. Microsoft was expected to debut “enhanced interactions” and gestures with a second update to Windows Phone 8.1, but it appears the company thought an app just for Lumia Windows Phone was the better route.

Microsoft has released a new beta app for Windows Phone that should allow users to control a phone call simply by placing the phone in a specific position.

With Gestures , you can control calls and mute your Windows Phone without touching the screen . You can:

  • Answer a call by picking up your phone and putting it to you ear
  • Mute your mic during a call by placing the phone on a flat surface with the display facing down
  • Put the call on speaker by placing the phone on a flat surface with the display facing up
  • Silence the phone by flipping it display down

Of course, none of these features are innovations in any sense, given that many devices have included such functionality for many years. Indeed, there were a few handsets back in the Windows Mobile days that offered flip-to-silence, and other similar features.

Nonetheless, Lumia owners will no doubt welcome the addition of this functionality, even if it is only available as a beta release for now. Be aware, though, that due to a limited array of onboard sensors, the Lumia 530, 630 and 635 do not support all of the features offered in the Gestures Beta app.

Best Functions of the iPhone Home Button

iPhone Home Button
iPhone Home Button

Almost all people, even if they don’t use iPhone, know what Home button is. But are you sure you know all its functions? Having a home button is a wonderful thing. It means you can never get lost. No matter how deeply you burrow into the iPhone software, no matter how far off track you find yourself, one push of the home button takes you back to the beginning.

Quick Press: Wake up

Pressing the home button once wakes the phone if it’s in locked mode. That’s sometimes easier than finding the Sleep switch on the top edge. It gives you a quick glance at your missed calls and texts — or the time and date.

Multitasking

Double click Home button to reveal all the apps that are currently running on your iPhone. If there are two many of them, swipe up to close those you don’t need anymore. Since iOS 8 you’ll also see a list of people you’ve recently called or texted as well as the list of your Favorite contacts for quick access.

Touch ID

Since iPhone 5S, Home button can also be used as a fingerprint scanner. You’ll need your fingerprint to unlock iPhone, make purchases in AppStore and iTunes.

Reachability

iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus are quite huge, so you can’t reach the upper part of your screen with a simple movement of your finger. That’s where you need a reachability option. Simply tap Home button twice, and the top of your screen will be moved down to make it easy to reach.

Momentary touch: Unlock (iPhone 5s)

If you’ve taught the iPhone 5s to recognize your fingerprint, then just resting your finger on the Home button is enough to unlock the phone, bypassing the password screen. In other words, you should get into the habit of pressing the Home button (to wake the phone) and then leaving your finger on it for about a half-second to unlock it.
