This post explains you clearly, how the Google answered to Amazon’s Echo Dot. It’s called the Google Home Mini. It has minimal cost of $49 only, which comes under in three colors and is such a pretty snappy little device that’s worth taking a look at. We had some time to get up close and personal with the device; here are some of our first impressions… First off, the audio is a bit punchier than the Echo Dot. It doesn’t feel a lot louder, but it is much less tinny, which is great. In practice, the mic input is about as good as the regular-sized Home, as in it works fine in normal use but struggles when the room gets loud. In my opinion, Amazon still has Google beat here in distinguishing background noise from audio the device is playing. It’s the size and shape of a donut and comes in coral, gray and charcoal colors. The design is definitely less obtrusive than the Dot, though it is a bit larger. Design-wise it seems it’s aiming to be a little less futuristic, with the ...

Amazon and Google are in a not-so-fun fight. Google has apparently decided to stop allowing the Amazon Echo Show to access YouTube. If you ask the smart speaker to show you a YouTube video, it fails and Alexa just say this: “Currently, Google is not supporting Youtube on Echo Show.” That seems like a pretty strong thing for a computer to say, so I asked Amazon about it, and the company issued this (excuse the pun) fire statement: The Echo Show, if you’re not familiar, is the Alexa-enabled smart speaker that has a screen on it so you can do stuff like... watch video. And YouTube is the internet’s largest source of said video. One of the core use cases of the Echo Show for some people might be watching cooking lessons or music videos — on YouTube. Amazon’s strident statement makes clear that it doesn’t believe this is a technical mistake, but a conscious choice by Google. Google, however, very much begs to differ on the reason it blocked YouTube on the Echo Show: We’ve been ...

Here's a official news, that Facebook and Microsoft's Big Undersea Cable is finally finished. More than  17,000 feet  below the ocean's surface, there now lies the "most technologically advanced subsea cable," providing up to 160 terabits (Tbps) of data per second — beating Google's alternative, now poorly named,  "Faster."  The cable is the handiwork of Facebook, Microsoft, and Spanish telecommunication company Telxius.  Construction on the cable, which stretches 4,000 miles from Virginia Beach, Virginia to Bilbao, Spain, began in August 2016. Microsoft announced its completion on Thursday, but it won't be operational until  early 2018 .  SEE ALSO:  Why Consumer Reports is wrong about Microsoft’s Surface products Facebook, Microsoft, and Telxius will jointly own the cable, which weighs almost 10.25 million pounds — as much as 34 blue whales. Telxius will serve as the cable's operator and will sell and lease its capacit...
