海外TECH	Engadget	Why an 'unexciting' galaxy could provide clues about the universe's evolution	https://www.engadget.com/why-an-unexciting-galaxy-could-provide-clues-about-the-universes-evolution-144754342.html?src=rss	NASA and the European Space Agency have released an image captured by the Hubble Space Telescope of a dwarf irregular galaxy that they admit looked quot unexciting quot at first glance However there s more going on than might initially meet the eye The agencies say that a great deal of research is going into the quot complicated structure quot of NGC which is million light years away in the Canes Venatici constellation In fact astronomers believe the distribution of stars in NGC may have been distorted after it swallowed up another galaxy They reckon that due to NGC s star population which Hubble is adept at helping to image it had a quot close encounter quot with another galaxy perhaps as recently as a billion years ago But since there isn t a galaxy close enough to have distorted the star distribution in this fashion it s more likely that NGC merged with a smaller galaxy Along with hosting many stars the galaxy is home to globular clusters which NASA describes as quot glowing bright spots both inside and around the galaxy swarmed by even more stars quot Astronomers plan to dig deep into the data to learn about NGC s past If they find groups of stars that have different properties from most of the galaxy s other stars that s a clear indication that a merger has occurred They ll also try to determine whether there was a quot burst of star formation quot that suddenly took place after the galaxies would have come together NASA notes that a dwarf irregular galaxy merging with a smaller satellite galaxy is just the kind of thing that could have spurred galaxy assembly in the early era of our universe As such the agency says that the data Hubble captured from NGC may help researchers to test fundamental ideas about the evolution of the universe This article originally appeared on Engadget at	2024-07-19 14:47:54
海外TECH	Engadget	Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 review: The king, but for how much longer?	https://www.engadget.com/samsung-galaxy-z-fold-6-review-the-king-but-for-how-much-longer-140129812.html?src=rss	No one has been making foldable phones longer than Samsung And for the first few years the sheer number of improvements we got on the Galaxy Z Fold line meant it didn t really have any competition But more recently the pace of innovation has slowed while new challengers like the OnePlus Open and Pixel Fold have arrived Now for Samsung has reinforced the Galaxy Z Fold with a stronger but significantly lighter frame a new ultra wide angle camera and a bunch of AI powered tools Unfortunately not much else has changed leaving us with a very iterative upgrade So while the Galaxy Z Fold remains the best all around big foldable on the market it feels like complacency is eroding Samsung s lead among flagship flexible phones Design and displays Tweaked dimensions with even brighter screens After eliminating the gap between the screen when closed on last year s phone Samsung has adjusted the Galaxy Z Fold s dimensions again for But the changes are so small you have to measure them in millimeters When closed the phone is just over one millimeter thinner and when you open it up in portrait the main screen is mm wider but one millimeter shorter It s not a ton but you do get a little more room for activities And of course this also affects the exterior Cover Display which is about mm wider as well ーjust enough to make using its on screen keyboard more forgiving Elsewhere the entire phone is sharper from its boxier edges to the more squared off corners on both screens Samsung also says the Enhanced Armor Aluminium used in the Z Fold s chassis is about percent stronger than before but I hope you ll forgive me for not dropping it on purpose just to find out Holding everything together is a new dual rail hinge And this time I think Samsung has nailed the perfect balance between something that s easy to open but also holds its position when you want it to But the biggest design upgrade is a gram weight reduction compared to the previous model Granted that might not sound like much but now the Z Fold only weighs around grams more than its non foldable cousin the S Ultra And on an already heavy phone this change makes a big difference As for the displays as someone who s been using the Pixel Fold a lot recently ーwhich has a solid screen in its own right ーcan I just say Samsung s panels are so choice Not only has peak brightness improved to nits for both displays just like on the standard S family Samsung has subtly shrunk and flattened the bezels so the phone looks even more like a magazine come to life And until I see something better this is simply the best screen on a big foldable right now Performance Expectedly speedy Photo by Sam Rutherford Engadget The Z Fold line has never been slow and this year we got the same upgrade to a Snapdragon Gen chip as we saw on the S while base RAM is staying pat at GB And as you d expect the Z Fold s performance is fast and responsive There s no lag when doing pretty much anything and thanks to the addition of a larger vapor chamber on the inside the phone stays cooler during longer sessions which is a nice bonus to all the gamers out there who like playing on a truly big screen device Cameras Mostly unchanged When it comes to photography I m a bit disappointed with the Z Fold not because it can t take a decent pic but because I know Samsung can do better For this go around Samsung has stuck with a trio of rear cameras opting for a new MP sensor for the ultra wide lens ーand it s pretty good But at the same time the ultra wide lens is the one I use the least in daily use and it s not close Photo by Sam Rutherford Engadget The other two cameras the MP main and MP telephoto with a x optical zoom ーare solid but they re the same ones Samsung used on at least the previous two generations In a photo of some strawberries the Z Fold produced a delicious pic with deep saturated hues and great details At the same time though you can also see the slightly exaggerated warm tones you often get from Samsung cameras And at night the Z Fold produced a beautiful pic of a flower in a very tricky backlit environment The issue is that after Google released the Pixel Fold Samsung doesn t really have an excuse for saddling the Z Fold with downgraded photography when compared to the S Ultra The Pixel Fold has a longer x optical zoom and an edge in overall photo quality Just take a look at two zoom shots taken by the Z Fold and the Pixel Fold In a vacuum Samsung s photo doesn t look bad But then take a look at the Pixel s image It s noticeably sharper and more detailed And it s the same thing in really low light situations like the one I took of some Bluey figurines where the Pixel Fold captured a less grainy sharper and more well exposed pic And after being pleasantly surprised with the cameras on the S Ultra it s a shame Samsung s most expensive phone sits in second place when it comes to photography AI features Fun and occasionally handy but not essential As we saw back at the beginning of the year Samsung has brought the Galaxy AI suite it launched on the S to the Z Fold And by and large a lot of the features are the same including things like Chat Assist which you can use to generate social posts or emails while selecting a variety of tones There s also support for Google s Circle to Search along with translation and summarization tools A couple new tweaks for the Fold is that now the phone can translate text in place instead of spitting it out into a big unformatted blob which is nice but kind of situational And I should mention Google Lens already offers similar functionality Perhaps the more important one is the ability to do dual screen translations so each person can see text in their language in real time depending on what side of the phone they re looking at Photo by Sam Rutherford Engadget Some new additions are the Portrait Studio tool that can create an AI generated drawing of someone based on a photo and a range of styles like comic or watercolor It s fun and it s good for a laugh or two but I m not sure how useful it will be on a regular basis There s also the Sketch to Image feature that allows you to add a simple drawing to an existing photo and then have the phone generate a more realistic rendition of it in your final image I still think Samsung s basic AI photo editing tools are the most useful of the bunch as they make it easy to delete distracting objects or do simple touch ups But once again all of this feels more like bonus content rather than core essentials Battery life Great longevity but could use some faster charging tech While Samsung didn t increase the size of the mAh cell in the Z Fold the phone does have slightly better battery life due to improved energy efficiency from its new chip On our video rundown test it lasted hours and seven minutes when using its large main screen and hours and minutes when using its exterior cover display That first number is even better than we saw from the Pixel Fold and OnePlus Open so if you need a big screen phone with ample longevity the Z Fold is the easy pick Photo by Sam Rutherford Engadget Unfortunately its charging hasn t changed much You still get watt wired charging and watt wireless charging which are both pretty mediocre figures in And while I wasn t expecting to see support for Qi magnetic charging on the Z Fold after Samsung opted not to add it to the main S line I m still a bit miffed that a phone this expensive is cutting important features off the spec sheet Wrap up It wasn t long ago when practically every component on the Z Fold line was unmatched by its competitors But now phones like the Pixel Fold exist which offers better overall photography Then there s the OnePlus Open which weighs the same as the Z Fold even after its recent diet And let s not forget both of those rivals are models Plus there are Chinese competitors like the Honor Magic V and the upcoming Xiaomi Mix Fold which are both thinner and lighter than Samsung s champion Photo by Sam Rutherford Engadget Don t get me wrong the Galaxy Z Fold is still a good foldable a great one even It s got excellent performance strong battery life and handy features like native stylus support But it feels like after all this time sitting fat and happy on its throne Samsung has a diminished hunger for total domination Instead of long awaited features like a built in S Pen or an improved under display camera we got a bunch of AI powered tools and tricks which are fun but not true highlight attractions And at ーwhich is more than last year ーthe Galaxy Z Fold is the most expensive it s been since the Z Fold But I guess that s the price you pay Samsung for having such a long reign on top This article originally appeared on Engadget
