This will replace the audio jack outlet USB Type-C thing, which means that the user connect the Smaath with another adapter (adapter) to be used just like a phone iPhone 7.

This also means that the user will not be able to use headphones while charging the phone battery operation.

It is worth mentioning that Apple has received a wave of criticism after announcing a phone iPhone 7 without audio socket, something that answered him company as the need for adopting courageous decisions, does Samsung is willing to risk caused by the huge amount of criticism, especially after the last failure, or is it will be a renaissance of the strongest towards victory?

This serious reason you should not connect the smartphone computer via a USB cable after today !

The destruction of the battery in the long run

Vahn phone in the computer does not give you would ship quickly but cause you problems you are indispensable, as you know USB ports on computers to be different frequencies of the issue to another also differ from the frequency required to charge the phone battery, and links to USB 1.0 gives stream 100 milliampere and USB 2.0 connections give a stream 500 amp connectors and USB 3.0 gives current 900 mA maximum.

Facebook at Work to take on LinkedIn and Google Drive

Will Facebook be stretching into your working life soon? Photograph: DADO RUVIC/REUTERS

Facebook may control the social graph of 1.3 billion people, but now it has ambitions to stretch deeper into the workplace, according to the Financial Times’ report on plans for “Facebook at Work”.

This isn’t about getting around corporate firewalls to ensure you can see which Frozen character your friends are, though. It’s a proper move to compete with services from Google Drive and LinkedIn to Slack, and become a serious working tool.

“The Silicon Valley company is developing a new product designed to allow users to chat with colleagues, connect with professional contacts and collaborate over documents,” claimed the FT.

“The new site will look very much like Facebook – with a newsfeed and groups – but will allow users to keep their personal profile with its holiday photos, political rants and silly videos separate from their work identity.”

It might be a sensible move for Facebook, but how will workers (and bosses) feel about their data being shared and stored on the social network? Workplace collaboration in the cloud isn’t an alien concept for many businesses now, but I wonder how Facebook providing this will be received.

Sweden explores sexism ratings for games

1:21:00 ص

Lara Croft’s evolution has reflected the debate about gender equality in games. Would ratings help

This year has seen plenty of debate about the portrayal of women in games, but now Swedish trade association Dataspelsbranchen is launching an intriguing new project to analyse the topic.

What’s more, the government-backed research could end in some kind of labelling scheme, although news site The Local stresses that it’s currently unclear whether this would be a rating for every game based on how well or poorly it portrays gender equality and diversity, or a badge for games that do it well.

“I do not know of any other project in the world asking this question and of course we want Sweden to be a beacon in this area,” said Dataspelsbranchen’s Anton Albiin, who also had an answer for questions about whether focusing on this area would inhibit developers’ creativity.

“Of course games can be about fantasy but they can be so much more than this. They can also be a form of cultural expression - reflecting society or the society we are hoping for. Games can help us to create more diverse workplaces and can even change the way we think about things.”

Swedish government-funded innovation agency Vinnova thinks the research is worth a 272,000-kronor grant: so note for accuracy’s sake, this is a project to explore how the idea of these ratings would work, not a firm commitment (yet) to introduce them.

What do you think about the idea of some kind of ratings system based on how games deal with issues of diversity? If it happens, should it be all games, or more a badge of quality? And what impact might it have if a game is given a negative rating in the former case? The comments section is open for your views.

The end of free apps on Apple's App Store Open Thread

1:10:00 ص

‘Free’ has been replaced by ‘Get’ on Apple’s App Store. Photograph: PR

It’s the end of free apps for iOS! Well, sort of. Apple quietly made a design tweak to its App Store yesterday, replacing the “Free” button for apps that are free to download with “Get”.

So, no change to the actual price, but the new wording is one way of sidestepping the debate around “free” apps not actually being free if they use in-app purchases – an issue that regulators in various parts of the world have been looking into.

Now, freemium apps will have the new “Get” button, as well as a prominent “In-App Purchases” notification, to ensure that people know they’re downloading something that will, in some way, be hoping for some of their money at a later point.

Is “Get” a good choice of wording in this case? You might argue that it makes it harder to tell that an app is free to download, although iOS users will surely pick that up by noticing other apps still have prices on their download buttons.

The comments section is open for your thoughts on Apple’s change, and the rise of freemium apps in general.

Are streaming services like Spotify the new music journalism ?

12:59:00 ص

the new music journalism

Have you heard the latest Led Zeppelin interviews? They’ve not been recorded and

aired by a broadcaster or a music magazine

Instead, they’re available through streaming music service Spotify: the third instalment in its series of “Landmark” documentaries about classic albums following

past looks at Nirvana’s Nevermind and Nas’ Illmatic.

This time round, it’s Led Zeppelin IV getting the treatment, with new audio interviews with surviving band members Robert Plant, Jimmy Page and John Paul Jones, presented as a Spotify playlist that mixes the chat with the remastered tracks.

Spotify isn’t the only digital music service getting into editorial: Google’s music team made a YouTube “mini-doc” about The Clash last year, while Scandinavian streaming service WiMP’s homepage mixes interviews and editorial with streams and videos.

All of these services have editorial teams

All of these services have editorial teams compiling playlists too, providing the curation that I grew up getting from weekly music magazines like NME and Melody Maker.

Meanwhile, music site Bandcamp is building a catalogue of reviews from fellow fans about the albums they’ve bought, while crowdfunding service PledgeMusic is providing the kind of behind-the-scenes stuff while albums are being made that I used to get from those magazines too.

It’s making me wonder: are digital music services increasingly the place where we’ll be finding what we traditionally think of as “music journalism”, from longform interviews to recommendations for new tracks?

Not necessarily as a replacement for traditional writing – there are more outlets than ever online, even if the economics of it are challenging – but as an additional channel where the music itself is woven into the journalism? Is Spotify the new NME, or the new Mojo, or the new Pitchfork, or something different entirely?

The comments thread is open for your thoughts, as well as your views on other technology talking points this morning. For example:
TechHive thinks that Google’s new guide to switching to Android “locks you into its cloud”. But is this a big concern?Facebook wants to start hosting articles from news publishers rather than just linking to their sites. The New York Times wonders if this means “media companies would essentially be serfs in a kingdom that Facebook owns”.
A startup called Yardam is making a “smart gun” for police that tracks every bullet they fire. Could this be a big step forward in controversial cases like the recent Ferguson shooting?
Can iPad apps help children learn to read? A recent study at New York University shows encouraging signs from a trial of an app called Learn With Homer.
Research firm Gartner thinks more than 217,000 3D printers will ship in 2015, rising to 2.3m in 2018. Is this technology really going to go mainstream?

A note on the new Open Thread format: regular Guardian Tech readers will have noticed that we’re experimenting with the format formerly known as Boot Up this week.

Today’s post already looks a little different to yesterday’s, as we explore a way to focus on one story in a bit more depth, while still providing some links to chat about. Your feedback on the format itself, as well as stories you’ve spotted online that deserve debate, is very welcome.
