Table of Contents HUAWEI MateBook D 16 2023 Huawei has launched a brand new metal laptop with a 16-inch screen and a full-size keyboard with a numeric keypad, which they managed to fit into a classic 15.6-inch case. The laptop runs on 13th generation Core i7 or i9 processors and Iris Xᵉ graphics. For complete happiness, they added 16 GB of RAM, a 1 TB NVMe drive and a full range of ports – from full-featured Type-C to HDMI. And the Huawei Metaline antenna is enough to catch a Wi-Fi 6 signal at a distance of up to 270 meters from the router. Powerful processors are, by the way, one of the key features of the new Huawei D-series laptops. And the entire category of “thin and light” laptops in general. Core i7 is rare, and Core i9, in general, is a rather unique solution even in the premium segment. So HUAWEI MateBook D 16 2023 is the first D-series laptop with i9 processor. This choice of processors is why Huawei decided to try to create the perfect laptop for those who want to work as efficiently outside the office as they do in the workplace. The screen, by the way, was made with an aspect ratio of 16 to 10, so that there was more usable area. A Core i7/i9 combo with 16GB of RAM and a 16-inch screen will do just fine for really demanding tasks. On such a laptop, it is good to create complex models in Excel, work with Big Data in MatLab or AutoCAD. My assumption is confirmed by the tests that Huawei proposes to subject the laptop to. Among them are working with Excel files of 100 MB and a million lines in size, launching PowerPoint files of 1 GB in size and working in Photoshop. Another 13th generation of Core i7 / i9 processors pleases with the new Iris Xᵉ integrated graphics. Graphics cards are more than enough for entry-level gaming. World of Tanks, Dota 2 or League of Legends will fly. To realize the performance potential inherent in the processor, Huawei had to create a powerful cooling system that made it possible to get rid of throttling (decrease in performance under maximum load due to overheating). At the same time, HUAWEI MateBook D 16 2023, despite the performance that is more typical for workstations than for ordinary laptops, still remains a compact and fairly light laptop (weight 1.7 kg). Plus, it comes with a compact 65W power adapter, which is the same size as smartphones. By the way, it is also perfect for charging your phone or tablet. When creating a device for working out of the office, Huawei engineers also took care of reliability. The HUAWEI MateBook D 16 2023 has been further tested in wet environments. The keyboard, touchpad, ports, and hinges all pass our durability test. HUAWEI MateBook D 16 2023 can be called business-rugged, that is, a device that can withstand even a tough business trip. The 1080p webcam with an 88-degree field of view was also a pleasant surprise. It seems that sad 720p is finally a thing of the past. Plus, the laptop also has a powerful Huawei Metaline antenna and artificial intelligence that amplifies voices and dampens noise. AI also knows how to correct your view, so that the interlocutors will not be able to reproach you for inattention (they will decide at most that you have a mild degree of autism or botulism, but none of us is perfect, right?). Finally, I would like to share my personal opinion. And I don’t think you can dispute it. In the computer market (Windows, macOS, Linux), Huawei has the best laptop + smartphone ecosystem. The feature is called “Super Device”. File exchange between laptop and tablet or smartphone – in one swipe. You can simply drag and drop files from the smartphone screen. Displaying a smartphone screen on a laptop is elementary. Viewing photos from your phone on your computer is also easy. With AI Search from your computer, you can even search for files on your smartphone (or any other connected device). And if you buy another branded monitor from Huawei, you can broadcast an image to it (both from a smartphone and from a laptop) wirelessly. A couple of years ago, Huawei was unique in this regard. Now other manufacturers are trying to catch up, but so far it all looks like a stump-deck. Again, this is my experience. And on our website there was a review of a laptop from Roma Belykh. archyde news. Huawei Tech Company LLC, TIN 7714186804, erid=LdtCK1ZNM Irrigator With age, I monitor the condition of my teeth more and more. The reason is relatively simple: every time I see prices for dentistry, I get sick. And if you add that the visit to the dentist itself cannot be written down in a notebook of joyful days of life … After all, if you look at the procedure from the outside, you come to the office, where something is drilled in your mouth, picking, painkillers are given, but it can still hurt, then for another half a day you walk around with a swollen face, not feeling your cheeks and tongue, drooling, and at the exit from the office you can easily leave 10-20-30 thousand or even all the money that you have. So prevention is the best protection against additional expenses. Let me remind you once again of simple tips that, as it turned out, not everyone knows: It is better to brush your teeth in the morning not before, but after eating, because after brushing your teeth they are left without a natural protective coating formed by saliva. We discussed this moment with friends, and not the smartest comrade was like this: “So what, I have to walk with a night taste in my mouth ?!”. So you just rinse your mouth with water in the morning, and that’s it. Accordingly, after brushing your teeth, it is better not to rinse your mouth, but simply spit out the excess foam and give it 20-30 minutes so that the useful components of the paste can act on the teeth and gums. I already wrote about this in a review of an electric toothbrush and received an enchanting comment: “So what, should I go to work with foam on my face?”. So you wash your face, do not rinse your mouth, wash your face. Evening brushing is more important than morning brushing. When we are awake, there is active salivation, and saliva washes the teeth, removing bacteria. In a dream, teeth are not washed with saliva, and bacteria have 7-8 hours of pure time to do their vile deeds with impunity. Dental floss should be used regularly during evening brushing. There is an easy way to convince yourself. The doctor recommended it to me. He suggested brushing your teeth somehow, and then working with a thread and smelling how the thread smells and those pieces of food that you extract from your teeth (and there is always a little bit, yes there is). After that, reading in some novel about the putrefactive breath of a tiger-dragon-or-other-monster, you will think that everything is normal with a tiger-dragon-or-other-monster, it just does not use dental floss. The irrigator is just designed to replace dental floss as a more high-tech way to clean the interdental area. There are two main advantages: The irrigator is more powerful: it is easier to clean with a jet of water under pressure. The irrigator is safer. Here, as an example, I can cite a third comrade who bought himself a phlostick and immediately cut his gum. Here, of course, it is clear that if you make a fool pray to God, he will break his own forehead. But in general, flotations can be cut relatively easily. Dental floss, by the way, is softer and safer in this regard. I am looking towards portable irrigators so that I can take it on the road. But if you are buying for the whole family, then it is better to pay attention to stationary ones. Some differ from others in the power source (battery or socket) and the volume of the tank (150-350 ml for portable and 1 liter for stationary – it takes up to about 300 ml for one cleaning). In general, you can not look at the pressure power, since 400-600 kPa is enough for everything. I have Soocas W3 PRO among my favorites. There is USB power, interchangeable nozzles, including options for the tongue and cheeks. Of the minuses – the volume of the tank is 240 ml. Well, I mean, you might have to refuel. And if you also buy a concentrate for an irrigator, you will have to fill in and dilute it. Although, in principle, it is believed that 240 ml, if not stupid, should be enough for one session. Another option is Xiaomi Mijia Electric Flusher and other options from Xiaomi. Soocas is, by the way, also Xiaomi. More specifically, a joint venture between Xiaomi Technology and Shunwei Capital. That is, here Xiaomi acted as an investor. Mijia is already more of a home company for Xiaomi. This is an inexpensive irrigator for those who want to get familiar with the concept. There are the same nozzles as the Soocas W3 PRO, but the tank is even smaller – 200 ml. But Xiaomi Mijia Electric Flusher is compact. 200 ml is enough for 2 minutes of operation of the device. To get acquainted with the world of irrigators, I decided to choose Xiaomi for a banal reason. These will definitely not be the best irrigators on the market, but they will definitely be of high quality in terms of performing their functions. Relatively speaking, an ordinary, from which it is already possible to develop. DIGMA OVERDRIVE 34A710Q We recently released a review of the DIGMA OVERDRIVE 34A710Q monitor. I recommend it to everyone for familiarization, if only for the simple reason that this is a monitor created by a Russian company, which is not inferior in quality and capabilities to more expensive products. This is a 34-inch gaming monitor with a resolution of 3440 by 1440 pixels, a frequency of 165 Hz and a brightness of up to 450 nits. In case you forgot, 1440p is the new gaming standard that started after Nvidia introduced RTX graphics cards. The monitor supports Nvidia G-SYNC and AMD FreeSync. The technologies work by synchronizing the screen refresh rate with the frame rate provided by the graphics card. In my case, the maximum frequency was limited to 100 Hz / FPS, because I connected the monitor via Type-C. To get 165Hz at 1440p, you need to connect via Display Port. Here is a useful table on the subject. I liked the implementation of the Type-C port, which along the way carries the 65W Power Delivery function. Accordingly, if you connect a laptop to the monitor via Type-C, then the latter will be charged. By the way, all ports are under a magnetic plug and the wires can be pulled into one knot. Of the minuses – I did not like the original color reproduction, so I had to tinker. And don’t count on built-in speakers. Although it is stated that there are 2 speakers of 3 W each, my monoblock at 50% volume sounds louder than the monitor at 100%. Evaluating DIGMA OVERDRIVE, I have no illusions, but look at the value for money. In the old days, I was able to test large and beautiful monitors from Samsung, Dell, HP, which at those prices cost around 100 thousand rubles (now from 150 to 172 tr.) And, of course, the same Samsung with its some Odyssey models senior order or HP will give a light to any other manufacturer. Well, a 49-inch OLED SAMSUNG S49CCG952SC with a screen resolution of 5120 × 1440 pixels for 350 thousand rubles and even more so now remains a pipe dream. Although if you have the money, of course, take either this one or the Samsung Odyssey Ark with a diagonal of 55 inches, and you will be happy like an elephant. But if we are equal to the same Xiaomi, then this monitor from Digma is not inferior, and even costs a little cheaper. And it pleases me, because I have no illusions. And cool monitors will never be brought at normal prices through parallel imports, because this is a big product that is needed by a limited circle of people. And imagine how many phones will fit instead of one monitor. New Category of the Month: Bone Conduction Pool Headphones If your back and neck hurt after a day at the office, then you should go to the pool. In my case, the neck pool works downright magical. This is explained by the fact that, sitting in the office or sticking into the phone, a person stretches his neck, excessively straining one and pinching other muscles. In the pool, all the muscles of the body work in a balanced way, and the clamp in the neck disappears. My only complaint about the pool is that it’s terribly boring. 25 meters in one direction, 25 in the other, every 3 pools you have to dodge the headstock, which dangles on the path, like some kind of brown substance in the hole. The first 20 minutes more or less. You swim, you think about your life, you reflect. But after thinking well about life, reflecting where it is heading, I don’t want to swim, but like a brick to the bottom. But it’s a dead number. The pool is only 2.5 meters deep, and the coach on duty easily manages to pull you out with a hook for swimming trunks. And then with a hole in your ass you go to the locker room. In short, after the pool, the neck does not hurt, unlike the soul. The other day Kostya (our author) reviewed the CREATIVE OUTLIER FREE PRO bone conduction headset, and I discovered headphones that can be used in the pool. Whether this particular model can be used in the pool, I do not know. For some reason, Kostya just doused the headphones, although in the absence of a pool he could stick his head into the basin and check. But in the comments, people said that there are Shokz OpenSwim and Aftershokz brands. They also say good X7. I don’t know what kind of company and brand it is, but they cost only 6 thousand rubles. Somehow suspiciously cheap for such a futuristic technology. But it looks interesting. Again, the presence of Bluetooth 5.3 pleases (the further the distance, the better it resists interference in theory). Rate, by the way, the translation of the promo picture. In short, in the near future I will dive into the topic, I will research and choose. And there you can swim and books, lectures with podcasts to listen to all sorts. DJI Air 3 I will probably never buy a drone for myself. This is such a thing that is cool if friends give. But I have no such friends, unfortunately. And the quadcopter is good: 46 minutes of flight, 2 cameras that can shoot 4K 60 fps HDR. Although, of course, I’m not so much interested in the drone as in the pictures on the promo page. After all, if the same picture were given, but you walk in your area, then the effect would be completely different. And, when going on a hike, you will not take a drone with you. For the dimensions and weight are large, and the flight time is only 46 minutes. Well, if only in trekking for 1-2 days. In general, of course, it would be cool to take such a drone to Altai. Or to Krasnaya Polyana, or to Abkhazia to Lake Ritsa and alpine meadows. But here, again, the main thing is not the drone, but the place. And in the mountains of Abkhazia, in principle, it’s good even without a drone, or what do you think?
