Google brings voice-based text editing and formatting to Docs

Google seems to have eliminated the need for keyboard as far as using its Docs productivity suite is concerned. After adding the Voice typing feature last year, the company has now rolled out an update that brings along voice-based text editing and formatting to Docs.
To use the new features, you need to first enable voice typing, something which you can do be heading to the Tools menu on your Chrome Web browser and then selecting the Voice typing option. Thereafter you can start editing and formatting with commands like "copy," "insert table," and "highlight."
To access the complete list of voice commands, simply say "Voice commands help" while the voice typing feature is enabled. Alternatively, you can also get it in the company's Help Center.

Low-end Oppo A33 gets detailed courtesy of TENAA

Image
Oppo may be best known for its mid-range and high-end offerings such as the R7, R7 Plus, or Find 7, but the Chinese company is also working on entry-level devices. Case in point: the upcoming Oppo A33, which is going to be pretty low-end. This handset, currently known just by its model number (A33), has been revealed by TENAA, the Chinese regulatory agency tasked with certifying smartphones for sale on that market. The Oppo A33 has a 5-inch 540x960 touchscreen, an 8 MP rear camera with LED flash, a 5 MP selfie snapper, 1GB of RAM, 16GB of expandable storage, 4G LTE support, and dual-SIM functionality. It's powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 410 SoC with a 1.2 GHz quad-core Cortex-A53 CPU, and it runs Android 5.1.1 Lollipop. The phone's dimensions are 142.7 × 71.7 × 7.55 mm, and it weighs 145g. It will surely be launched in China, where it should cost around CNY 800 ($125, €111) according to media speculations. It's not at all clear if the Oppo A33 ...

12.2-inch version of the Lenovo Yoga Book with Android shows up at Amazon priced at just $299.99

Image
At IFA last year, Lenovo turned some heads with its Yoga Book, a 2-in-1 laptop / tablet hybrid that doesn't have an actual physical keyboard. Instead, its so-called Halo Keyboard is flat and doubles as a writing surface, complete with predictive input and autocorrect functionality. So far the Yoga Book has been available with a 10.2-inch 1080p touchscreen, running either Windows or Android. A model with Chrome OS on board is coming this year, but also a bigger one too. While the Chrome OS Yoga Book has been confirmed by Lenovo already, a 12.2-inch Yoga Book has been listed by Amazon without any proper official introduction. It's not available yet, but it does have a price: $299.99 running Android. That's oddly cheaper than what the 10-inch Yoga Book costs with Google's OS, namely $499. You don't see that every day, as usually bigger laptops or 2-in-1s are more expensive than their smaller siblings, if just by a tad. However, the price start...

Gran Turismo 6 Includes Microtransactions

Image
Sony has confirmed the presence of in-game credits, but not their cost. Gran Turismo 6 will be the first game in the series to feature microtransactions, Sony has confirmed. A post on the PS Blog explains how in-game credits will be implemented, alongside announcing digital pre-orders are now being accepted. You'll be able to purchase bundles of 500K, 1 million, 2.5 million or 7 million credits from the PS Store that can in turn be exchanged for cars and parts. A sample chart, which you can see below, gives you an example of all the cars that you could purchase for 1 million credits. While it's been confirmed that microtransactions will feature in the game, Sony hasn't announced how much the in-game credits will cost in terms of real-world cash. There's also some confusion over whether these cars will be purchasable without spending real-world money. It seems like the option to throw some cash around is literally just to speed things up, though som...

LG G Pad 7.0 specs uncovered through unofficial means

Image
LG has the irksome habit of announcing stuff with just a photo and virtually no specs, the same thing happened with the three new LG G Pad tablets. We have to resort to sources like AnTuTu for specifications of the LG G Pad 7.0 as if it’s a rumored, unofficial device. So, here it goes. The 7″ screen has 1280 x 800 pixel resolution, making for 216ppi. Unlike the G Pad 8.3 , this one doesn’t seem to be a particularly high-end model. If the screen wasn’t indication enough, then the Snapdragon MSM8226 chipset should make you certain. This chipset houses a quad-core Cortex-A7 CPU running at 1.2GHz and an Adreno 305 GPU. The LG G Pad 7.0 has 1GB RAM and 8GB storage, presumably expandable. There’s also a 3.2MP main camera and a 1.3MP front-facing camera, though there’s no info on the video capture resolution. Does this mean that the 8″ and 10.1″ G Pads will be mid-rangers too? We’ll have to wait for the AnTuTu team to dig up their benchmark results to find out, or mayb...
