Caresto Arkham Car Just Might Be The Most Powerful Custom Batmobile Ever Built

Caresto Arkham Car Just Might Be The Most Powerful Custom Batmobile Ever Built

Cars, , , , ,

There have been plenty of Batmobile designs over the years. Some look sporty and some look futuristic, while the one from the Arkham Knight video game looks more like a post-apocalyptic battle tank than the Caped Crusader’s ride. We don’t know if you liked that version of Batman’s armored fighting vehicle, but Swedish automotive company Caresto definitely did.  So much so, in fact, that they brought it to life in the form of the Arkham Car.

Withings Go review : A budget fitness tracker that keeps things simple, and that's fine with us

Withings Go review : A budget fitness tracker that keeps things simple, and that’s fine with us

Wearables, , , , ,

If you’re after a fitness tracker with versatile wearing options and a screen, then the Go is certainly worth considering. It’s not the prettiest thing to have around your wrist but it delivers baseline data that fitness tracker newbies will find easy to digest. Step tracking was reliable although we couldn’t say the same for sleep. The automatic run tracking is a nice addition for the casual runner as well and the software has vastly improved in recent years. That said, it still feels like it lacks behind some of its competitors for offering valuable insights and third party app support. If you can live without the luxurious looks associated with Withings’ top end fitness tracker, it ticks all the important boxes to be a solid fitness tracker for beginners.

Little Tearers Comparison : Honda CB500F Vs. KTM 390 Duke

Little Tearers Comparison : Honda CB500F Vs. KTM 390 Duke

Cars, , ,

Going into it we surmised the little Duke was going to be the sportier ride and the Honda the more practical one. Guess what, that’s how it shakes out. Having said that, though, the practical Honda is really pretty damn sporty and the sporty little cheap KTM is practical enough to be your commuter – if you’re not much taller than 5’10, anyway. It’s way more compact than the CB500F.

We charted the changes Honda applied to the 2016 Honda here last week; in a nutshell, they totally revised the looks of the thing with bold new plastic, a bigger (4.4-gallon) fuel tank and a new tucked-in-tighter exhaust that gives the CB more a shrunk-down CB1000R look (designed by Honda of Italy) than the built-in-Thailand-on-the-cheap decor of the previous 500F.

Asus Zenfone Zoom VS Nokia 1020 : 3x optical zoom with 41MP camera

Asus Zenfone Zoom VS Nokia 1020 : 3x optical zoom with 41MP camera

Wearables, , , , , ,

Asus Zenfone Zoom and Nokia 1020 are 2 smartphones which focus on one specific spec – camera feature. They just not focus on camera, but the Zoom on that camera.

Camera feature

What comes first to our minds about these two phones is their cameras, or more exactly their abilities to zoom. But they’re totally different. The Nokia 1020 launched in 2013 has a 3x zoom, thanks to its underlying 41 MP sensor. And the Zenfone Zoom goes to another direction with 13-megapixel sensor with 3x Optical Zoom. Despite the similar camera design, the technologies inside are very different. While the Zenfone Zoom has a 10-element optical system with 45º reflectors and zooming lenses, Nokia 1020 uses digital crop zoom, mart-cropping down to 1:1 (at 5MP).

But is it really the best phone ever for shooting photos and videos, like HTC’s ads claim? No, not quite. Read on to find out why Samsung’s Galaxy S7 — which uses the same camera as the Galaxy S7 Edge, our reigning champ as the best camera phone — remains on top.
