Okay, so the previous record-holder in the world's thinnest hard drive category was only 1mm fatter, but still! Records! The Seagate GoFlex Slim portable hard drive—first debuted at CES this January but today a real live shipping USB 3.0, 7200RPM storage accessory—measures up at just 9mm thick. That's 320GB of bonus…
Sony's slimmed-down PS3 is a cute little ugly duckling, and not without its concessions. From fewer USB ports to an over-priced vertical stand, and its removed "Install Other OS" feature, here's what you should know before picking one up.
When we reviewed MSI's X340 aka "the Unemployed Man's MacBook Air" back in May, we loved how slim it was, but were concerned by its poor battery life and flimsy-as-hell keyboard. It now looks like MSI has sweetened the deal.
Well, it's smaller, it also holds some unexpected surprises. The matte finish won't scratch or fingerprint like the original PS3 fat. The Slim is definitely noticeably lighter, but it's still kinda big.
The 7-inch Mimo display we reviewed was nice, but it was slightly chunky for a 7-inch display. Hence, the Mimo Slim.
Following our anti-Dubai-gigarchitecture article on the slimmest houses in the world, reader Micah Sherman has sent us which may be the thinnest, smallest house in any city in the world. Updated with more crazy examples.
At CES, JVC showed off its super slim LCDs, but at the time there wasn't a lot of detail on them. Today, the 42" LT-42SL89 and 46" LT-46L89 are shipping, priced at $1,900 and $2,400. Though the 1.5-inch thick TVs actually measure 2.9 inches in the middle, they come with an integrated HDTV tuner, which other slim TVs…
It's pretty clear where Samsung is going with the X360 laptop when you notice it's branded it as "lighter than air" and say it's the "lightest notebook in its 13.3 inch class" since it weighs just 1.27 kg. Inside there's a 45nm Core 2 Duo mobile processor, mated to a 1280 x 800 pixel LED-backlit screen, and the…
Right back in January we brought you news that JVC had worked out some magic for making super-slim LCD TVs, and now they're official products. The 42-inch LT-421L89 and the 46-inch LT-46SL89 measure up at just 1.5-inches deep (2.9-inches at the center) and let JVC say they're the "world's thinnest tuner-equipped LCD…
TGDaily has a very interesting rumor about the Xbox 360 getting not just upgrade parts, but an entire redesign based on upcoming hardware. After the next 65nm chip upgrade, the next 45nm one won't just be a die shrink, but it'll be a complete redesign, integrating multiple components onto one chip (system-on-a-chip…
What this means: 5MP iPhones without any extra girth. Most of the high end camera phones like the N series Nokias like the N95 and the Sony Ericsson Cybershots have a major drawback of being pretty thick. Kodak's 5MP sensor is build on an incredible 1.4 micron tech and reworking of regular CMOS design, so it fits…
If you picked up a wired version of Apple's new thin aluminum keyboard you may have noticed that the caps lock function is all but useless. Only a good long press of the key will activate the function, and if you so much as breathe on it, caps lock disengages. So, is Apple spearheading an anti-caps lock campaign?…
The PSP Slim is a marginal upgrade at best, but an upgrade nonetheless, and enthusiast press is getting their hands on the first review units. Some guy at Kotaku who looks like a boy band pirate groped it, took photos and videos, and noted the differences, which I shall recap:
•33% lighter, and 19% slimmer than the…
If you recently purchased one of those new slim aluminum Apple keyboards, you might have noticed that a couple of the fancy function keys on top (where the F-keys are) didn't work. Namely, the F3 and F4 keys, which activate the Exposé and the Dashboard functions. Even using OS X's built-in keyboard shortcut remapping…
Sony Ericsson's K770i Cyber-shot cellphone has been announced today: it's only 14.5 mm thick, has a 3.2-megapixel camera with Photo fix function and is expected to launch in Europe sometime in the last quarter of this year. Hopefully it will make the jump to the US soon. Full specs and press release after the jump.
Samsung's got quite a reputation with its improbably slim cellphones, and now it turns its expertise on the L77, a midrange point-and-shoot that it's calling the "world's thinnest 7-megapixel camera." No wonder it's called L77, because along with that 7-megapixel CCD, it has an unusually long 7x optical zoom as well.…
Unlike what we thought back in May, the LG K320, noted for its super slim body, is not only going to be available in Europe, but it may be there right now. Importantly, the specs haven't changed: it's still only about 0.4-inches thick, plays MP3s about as well as cellphones can right now, and sports 128MB of built-in…
LG continues its choco-dominance with its KG99 Slim chocolate phone. By putting the bottom row of *, 0 and # keys in the fourth column, LG makes this phone wide and slim like the Motorola Q, but without the smartphone features.
Pantech's got another Korean import for us to salivate for, just like their kimchee. The IM-S110 cellphone has a 3.2 megapixel camera, MP3 player, FM tuner, miniSD slot, and comes in either pink or white.
