Find your better way

The Lenovo Yoga was the first device to make Windows 8 interesting. It had a hinge that could convert the laptop into a tablet or fold into a tent. Lenovo has since refined that design into an even better laptop, and it has also taken the time to convert some of that design philosophy to the Android-powered Lenovo Yoga Tablet.

When it comes to Android tablets, they are all rather ho-hum; big rectangular slabs. In an effort to use them comfortably as a display or for watching a movie, clunky cases and folios must be purchased in order to prop them up. Sure, you can lean it against something and hope it doesn't fall over, but that is risky business.

Lenovo feels the pain of Android users and has created a new solution -- a better way, if you will.

The company explains that the tablet, "features three unique modes, giving consumers a better way to use a tablet. With hold, tilt and stand modes, the tablet adapts to the way people use it instead of forcing people to adapt to the technology.

In hold mode, the tablet is held like a, well...tablet. You can hold it as you do any other tablet but in addition, you can hold the battery side like a handle. When holding it in landscape mode, the weight from the battery is at the bottom, so it is more comfortable for the user.

In stand mode, the tablet can stand on its own using the built in kickstand. This kickstand is made of aluminum which should make it rather durable. The user can then watch movies on the tablet or use it with a Bluetooth keyboard as a make-shift workstation.

The tilt mode, while less exciting, is actually quite useful. You see, it props the tablet up at a slight angle for improved typing. Many third-party cases offer this feature by tucking the front flap into the back. With the Lenovo Yoga Tablet, no such clunky case is needed.

you can use it anywhere , on your way to office in public transport , In shopping malls , at your coffee shop.

Go and get a better lyf. :)

The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug

The King Under the Mountains.

At the start of the movie, Bilbo Baggins has a sword called Sting and One Ring to Rule Them All.

While I enjoyed the first Hobbit film, it did feel like it left a bit to be desired. I knew that I would be waiting for all the good stuff with the second and third films. And sure enough, the second film delivers where the first film didn't quite excite as much as I had wanted. While it isn't perfect and does unnecessarily deviate a bit, this is easily better than the first film, giving us a bigger, bolder adventure and a more interesting Bilbo Baggins this time around.

The film is an excellent and expertly crafted adaptation. There is a definite sense of character growth, especially from Bilbo, who seems to struggle with the power of the ring and it's greed. We already know where this goes, but it is none the less fascinating considering who he was when we first met him. The dwarfs seem to almost take a back seat here. They are less prominent, with the exception of Thorin and Balin, who take front and center. That isn't to say they aren't entertaining, as they usually are every time they are on screen.Thorin is the real standout though, as he goes through similar changes as Bilbo, which lends them an interesting comparison in their mutual struggles. The actors are all excellent once again in their respective roles, with Freeman once again being the standout.
While the film does an excellent job of not simply being the middle film, something The Two Towers struggled with in the LotR trilogy, it is the action, set pieces, and effects which are the true stars. This may not be a LotR movie, but it's close. We almost immediately start out with a bang and it rarely lets up. Of course, much of what happens early on, as exciting as it may be, pales in comparison to it's explosive and lengthy climax. Smaug is quite possibly the best creation of any of the film, Hobbit or LotR.

He is as awesome as you could have hoped for and Benedict Cumberbatch is excellent in the role. While effects have been applied to his voice to give it more boom, he does a fantastic job as the sneering, wise, and boastful dragon. 

I AM THE FIRE ... I AM THE DEATH

Watching and listening to him face off against Bilbo is a delightful treat, and that is before we get to any fire breathing and chasing. What follows is a lengthy conclusion to the film that will excite and delight all. I have no qualms in saying that Smaug makes the entire film worth the admission of price. But don't go in expecting a solid conclusion. This is, after all, the second of a trilogy, so you can surely expect the film to leave you salivating for the next one.
This must be the best movie of 2013. There is no movie that comes close to it recently. Even if you haven't seen the first Hobbit movie, I suggest you see this. The action, the story line, the scenes, nothing comes close to it. If you enjoyed the Lord of The Rings trilogy, you will enjoy this.

There are giant spiders, wolves called Wargs and one pleasingly familiar face, that of Legolas, the Elven heartthrob played by Orlando Bloom, who swoops into the mix and, like Luke Evans, as a mystery man named Bard, gives the movie some oomph. 

I recommend everyone to go by yourself or with a friend and see this movie worth a life-time. It been a while since I seen a good movie, and this movie will not be beat. I can't wait till the third one comes out.

My Rating: 10/10
