What is the run time of lenovo battery?

lenovo batteries have two main ratings on them: Volts and Amperes. Because size and weight of batteries is limited when compared to larger batteries such as car batteries, most companies show their ratings with Volts and Milliamperes. One thousand Milliamperes equals 1 Ampere. When buying a battery, select batteries with the most Milliamperes (or mAh). Batteries are also rated by Watt-Hours, perhaps the simplest rating of all. This is found by multiplying the Volts and the Amperes together. For example:

  • 14.4 Volts, 4000mAh (Note: 4000mAh is equal to 4.0 Amperes).
  • 14.4 x 4.0 = 57.60 Watt-Hours

Watt-Hours signifies the energy needed to power one watt for one hour.

Canon EOS M50 Mark II: everything we know so far

The Canon EOS M50 is one of the best beginner mirrorless cameras around, particularly as its price tag is considerably lower than when it first launched in early 2018.

But time waits for no camera and the first early rumors of an EOS M50 II (which could also be called the M60) have started swirling.

Its release is likely to be some way off given what we know about the life cycles of Canon EOS M cameras, and we still think the Canon EOS M50 remains a solid choice for stills shooters right now.

The rumors do, though, suggest an EOS M50 II will bridge the specs and features gap to the more recent Canon EOS M6 Mark II, while retaining features like the electronic viewfinder and vari-angle screen that set it apart from other EOS M cameras. Here’s everything we know about it so far.

Release date and price

The original Canon EOS M50 came out in February 2018, so it’s nearing its two-year birthday. Despite its relative age, the latest whispers from Canon Rumors suggest an EOS M50 Mark II won’t be announced until September 2020.

Still, that fits the release schedule of other EOS M cameras like the EOS M6, which was succeeded around two-and-a-half years after its release by the EOS M6 Mark II.

There are no rumors about pricing for the M50 Mark II yet. Like the current model, it’ll sit below the flagship Canon EOS M6 Mark II, which costs $850 / £870 / AU$850. The original EOS M50 cost $680 / £540 / AU$780 when it launched, so a price around that ballpark seems likely (or perhaps slightly more, given its improved specs).

Given that the Mark II isn’t likely to be available until later in 2020, the original EOS M50 remains a good buy at its current discounted price, as long as you’re prepared to accept its 4K video-related limitations. That price could be reduced even further during Black Friday, so keep an eye out for deals on our best Black Friday Camera deals hub.

Specs and features

So far, the latest whispers from Canon Rumors have only produced some basic possible specs for the EOS M50 Mark II.

These include a new 32.5MP APS-C CMOS sensor, which feels like a given given its inclusion in the more recent EOS M6 Mark II. That sensor gives you a big resolution boost over the 24.1MP EOS M50, which means greater potential for cropping your shots.

The rumors also suggest the M50 Mark II will have a Digic 8 processor, which is the same one as the current model. The EOS M50 was actually the first camera with this processor, so it’s possible Canon will be able to squeeze more performance out of it in the Mark II. The flagship EOS M6 Mark II, for example, can shoot at 14fps with continuous autofocus, slightly more than the M50’s 10fps maximum.

Still, we’d ideally like to see the EOS M50 Mark II powered by the Digic 9 processor that could make its debut in the Canon EOS 1DX Mark III. That would really make it a little powerhouse of an APS-C camera, though it’s possible Canon might save this for its higher end models.

Perhaps the most interesting rumors revolve around the M50 Mark II video shooting capabilities. This is currently one of the EOS M50’s main weaknesses, given it can only shoot 4K with a 1.6x crop and at 24p or 25p. It seems like the EOS M50 II, though, will be boosted to much more respectable uncropped 4K / 30p mode, will Full HD shooting at a slo-mo 120p.

This is a particularly big deal for the M50 because its vari-angle screen makes it well-suited to vlogging. A major downside of the current model’s cropped 4K video is that it makes it difficult to film at arms length or in tight spaces. But getting close to matching the EOS M6 Mark II’s video quality would make it a much better all-rounder for those who have a mixed shooting diet of both stills and video.

The rumors suggest that vari-angle screen will remain a 3-inch, 1.04-million dot affair, but there have been no leaks yet about upgrades to the electronic viewfinder (EVF), autofocus or battery life, which was another limitation on the EOS M50. The EOS M50 Mark II will hopefully go beyond 235 shots per charge, or at least give us in-camera USB-C charging. 

Design

There haven’t yet been any leaks showing the possible design of the EOS M50 Mark II yet, though a recent patent suggests Canon may have found a way to make its mirrorless full-frame and APS-C cameras a little smaller.

As Canon News pointed out, the patent shows a design that moves the shutter motor from its traditional position next to the battery compartment to beneath the shutter assembly. This could allow Canon to make the EOS M50 Mark II a little smaller, though it won’t be a drastic change given the current M50 is already lighter than the EOS M6 Mark II and needs room for that viewfinder.

Canon cameras are renowned for their considered handling and it’s unlikely to make the EOS M50 Mark II too small at the expense of its ability to balance out longer lenses like the EF-M 18-150mm f/3.5-6.3 IS STM.

It’s early days for Canon EOS M50 Mark II rumors, so that’s all we have for now. We’ll update this page regularly with more rumors as soon as they surface, so stay tuned.

This new smartwatch could be your next great health tool

OMRON Healthcare is launching the first clinically validated, wearable blood pressure monitor in the form of a new smartwatch called HeartGuide.

In addition to being the number one brand recommend by cardiologists in Europe, the company is delivering its mission of “Going for Zero” compromise when it comes to cardiovascular health with the European launch of its innovative new device.

HeartGuide is now available direct to consumers across the UK, Germany, Italy and France though OMRON Healthcare plans to release the device in more European countries at a later date.

Senior general manager at OMRON Healthcare, Andre Van Gils explained why HeartGuide’s ability to constantly monitor a user’s blood pressure can help doctors and patients win the fight against hypertension, saying:

“The No. 1 contributing risk factor for global death is raised blood pressure – causing strokes, heart attacks and other cardiovascular complications. 1 in 3 people in the world suffers from hypertension, and only 50% of those who are affected are actually aware of their condition. As a result, 10 million lives are lost needlessly every year. However, with lifestyle change and proper monitoring of the cardiovascular state of health, 80% of these deaths might be preventable. Recent research conducted by OMRON Healthcare, found that only 26% of the people diagnosed with hypertension in Europe measure their blood pressure weekly and 11% daily – and this needs to change.”

HeartGuide

OMRON’s HeartGuide is the first wearable blood pressure monitor available in the form of a wrist watch and the company filed more than 80 new patents to create the device which includes the miniaturized components of traditional oscillometric measurement devices.

The device works in the same way that blood pressure cuffs do and it uses an inflatable cuff within the watch band to take a blood pressure reading. This sets HeartGuide apart from other health-focused smartwatches which rely on sensor technology that can only provide blood pressure estimates.

Users can expect to charge the new wearable approximately two to three times a week depending on how often they use HeartGuide’s features.

In addition to measuring a user’s blood pressure, HeartGuide can also show incoming notifications as well as track steps, calories burned and distance walked. The device even monitors sleep activity such as when a user falls asleep to provide them with a more comprehensive picture of their heart health.

Intel Comet Lake-S 10-Core CPU Benchmarks Surface

Fresh benchmarks for Intel’s 10th-Generation Comet Lake-S (CML-S) processors have started to appeared in the Geekbench 4 database. The results reveal the chips’ core counts, L2 and L3 cache, as well as the preliminary base and boost clocks. But as always, it’s wise to take these with a some grains of salt, since they are submissions of unreleased hardware. 

As a quick refresher, Comet Lake-S will replace Intel’s current Coffee Lake Refresh lineup. The upcoming Comet Lake-S chips continue to hail from Intel’s 14nm process node. However, they’re likely to be based on an improved 14nm+++ process. Comet Lake-S is also expected to bring higher core counts and more cache.

Starting with what we assume is the flagship part, the unidentified Comet Lake-S processor will apparently come rocking 10 cores and 20 threads. It seemingly has 640KB of L1 cache, 2.5MB of L2 cache and 20MB of L3 cache. Geekbench 4 lists the processor with a 1.51 GHz base clock and 3.19 GHz boost clock.

The other unknown Comet Lake-S part is said to sport six cores and 12 threads, plus 384KB of L1 cache, 1.5MB of L2 cache and 12MB of L3 cache. Geekbench 4 identified the chip as having a 1.99 GHz base clock and 2.89 GHz boost clock.

According to Geekbench 4’s report, both Comet Lake-S processors are equipped with Intel’s UHD Graphics 630, which is the same iGPU (integrated graphics processing unit) that debuted with the chipmaker’s Coffee Lake family. It’s perplexing that Geekbench 4 only detects 23 EUs (execution units) for both Comet Lake-S parts when the UHD Graphics 630 is known to offer up to 24 EUs. When it comes to speeds, the 10-core chip’s iGPU is clocked at 1.2 GHz, while the six-core is confined to 1.15 GHz.

AMD has already landed the first blow with its third-generation Ryzen desktop processors that maxes out at 16 cores with the AMD Ryzen 9 3950X. Obviously, Intel would be at a disadvantage core-wise if Comet Lake-S arrives topping out at just 10 cores, as rumored. So, It’ll be interesting to see how Intel ends up responding. 

This Dell G3 laptop with a GTX 1660 Ti is just $700 from Best Buy

The deals on gaming laptops just keep coming, and Black Friday isn’t even here yet. Now you can get a Dell G3 15 gaming laptop with a GTX 1660 Ti graphics card for just $699.99. Not only is that $300 below the original price, but it’s also significantly cheaper than most other laptops with the same GPU.

The specifications on this model include an Intel Core i5-9300H processor, 8GB of RAM, a 512GB NVMe SSD, a 15.6-inch 1080p 60Hz screen, and an Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660 Ti graphics card. Windows 10 Home is pre-installed.

This is an excellent deal, mostly because the vast majority of laptops with a GTX 1660 Ti GPU cost around $1,000, and this Dell G3 is a penny under $700. Also, Dell’s G3 lineup is easily serviceable, so you can upgrade the RAM or SSD at a later date without too much trouble.

A Look at the Insane Nikon NIKKOR Z 58mm f/0.95 S Noct Lens

The Nikon NIKKOR Z 58mm f/0.95 S Noct lens is extreme in every conceivable measurement — from optics to price. Does that crazy price deliver image quality to match? This fun first look video takes a peek at the monster lens and just what it is capable of.

Coming to you from Kai W, this first look video examines the Nikon NIKKOR Z 58mm f/0.95 S Noct lens. The 58mm f/0.95 both captured the imaginations of photographers and earned some criticism for its stratospheric design and price when it first came out, with some saying it was entirely impractical and others interested in what could be accomplished with it. This certainly is not the first lens of its kind on paper; there have been 50mm f/0.95 designs for decades, and Canon even made a 50mm f/1.0L lens with autofocus in the 1980s and 1990s (the Nikon 58mm is manual focus only), but aside from Leica’s $11,000 50mm f/0.95 lens, Nikon’s lens is the only one that aspires not just to have an extreme aperture, but to have top-notch image quality wide open, thus the crazy price tag. Check out the video above for Kai’s full thoughts on the lens. 

ASUS Brings Wi-Fi 6 to Desktops with PCE-AX3000 Card

ASUS has introduced one of the industry’s first Wi-Fi 6 cards for desktops. The ASUS PCE-AX3000 dual band PCIe 3.0 x1 adapter promises to provide up to 2.4 Gbps data transfer rates over 160 MHz channels when used with an appropriate router.

The ASUS PCE-AX3000 card is essentially an adapter carrying an M.2-2230 Wi-Fi 6 card for laptops. The actual radio that powers the card is unknown, however it supports all key features of the Wi-Fi 6 specification, including 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands, 80 MHz and 160 MHz channels, MU-MIMO, OFDMA (Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiple Access) for allowing different devices to be served by one channel, and WPA3. Besides Wi-Fi 6, the card also supports Bluetooth 5.0 technology allowing desktops to connect to various mobile and peripheral devices.

The PCE-AX3000 Dual Band PCI-E Wi-Fi 6 has two large antennas to ensure strong signal and fast connectivity in various situations. The adapter should be compatible with all existing desktops that use Windows 10 (64-bit) or Linux.

Numerous modern laptops feature Wi-Fi 6, providing higher performance in crowded networks, but not everything is that rosy with desktops as Wi-Fi 6 adapters for desktops are practically nonexistent. Luckily, with products like the ASUS PCE-AX3000, 2.4 Gbps connectivity will now be available for desktop computers too.

Centaur Creates First x86 SoC with Integrated AI Co-Processor

People typically think of x86 processors as coming from Intel and AMD, but there is a third architectural license holder: VIA. This week, an Austin, Texas-based subsidiary of the Taipei-headquartered company announced it’s demonstrating an x86 processor that comes with an integrated artificial intelligence (AI) co-processor.

VIA’s Centaur Technology is a small CPU design company. The unnamed processor it’s developing is built on the 16nm fabrication process and manufactured by TSMC. It’s a complete system-on-chip (SoC) with eight cores, 16MB of L3cache and am AI co-processor. In total, it has a die size of 195 square millimeters, which isn’t all that big. For comparison, a Ryzen 5 chip with one CCD and one IOD has a die measuring 199 square millimeters.

Centaur’s new chip isn’t meant to land in consumer PCs. Rather, the end goal is to land in enterprise systems aimed at deep learning and other industrial applications. 

Centaur is developing this processor to tackle the challenge of x86 processors needing external inference acceleration (such as a GPU with Nvidia’s Tensor cores). It wants to integrate this feature into one chip and, consequently, reduce power consumption for deep learning tasks.

Next to its eight x86 cores, 16MB of L3 cache and 20 TOPS AI co-processor, Centaur’s chip comes with a total of 44 PCIe lanes and four DDR4 memory channels. Therefore, if a user wanted to further improve a supporting system’s inference performance they’d also be able to add GPUs into the mix. 

Currently, the reference platform runs at 2.5 GHz. It also comes with the AVX-512 instruction set, which, thus far, has only been implemented in very select few processors.

The 16MB of memory that the AI co-processors also have access to enable them to communicate at up to 20 TBps, which has led to the lowest latency for image classification within just 330 microseconds in the MLPerf benchmark.

“We set out to design an AI co-processor with 50 times the inference performance of a general-purpose CPU. We achieved that goal. Now we are working to enhance the hardware for both high-performance and low-power systems, and we are disclosing some of our technology details to encourage feedback from potential customers and technology partners,” Glenn Hendry, Centaur’s Chief Architect of the AI co-processor, said in a statement.

Centaur’s x86 CPU with its AI co-processor isn’t ready for prime time yet but will be demonstrated at ISC East on November 20 and 21, with technical details to be published on December 2. 

Acer Predator X35 review: I’m finally sold on ultrawide gaming

Acer has added to the the extra-high-end PC gaming monitor arena with the Predator X35, a commanding 35-inch 1440p ultrawide with G-Sync Ultimate, a 200Hz refresh rate, 2ms response time, and VESA DisplayHDR 1000 certification. It certainly fulfills the needs of most gamers out there, but it comes with a huge price tag that’s more than what most people spend on a gaming PC. I’ve been basking in testing the Predator X35 for a couple of weeks to see exactly what Acer has delivered.

What I love about the Acer X35 Predator

The Predator X35’s 35-inch display has a 21:9 aspect ratio and 1800R curve. It’s a huge monitor that takes up a ton of space on your desk, but the curve is ideal for the size. It’s not too aggressive for the width, and it does a decent job of pulling you in for increased immersion. The metal stand has a split-foot design to take up the least amount of room possible while still offering sufficient stability, though if you have a small desk with keyboard, mouse, and PC tower already established, you’re likely going to have to make some changes to fit the huge screen.

The stand offers decent ergonomic options, including adjustments for height, tilt, and swivel. No rotation for portrait mode; the display is meant to be used horizontally. I like my monitor set up at about eye level to prevent slouching and back pain during long gaming sessions, but the stand doesn’t get quite high enough without adding a riser. For a more permanent setup, there are 100mm x 100mm VESA on the back.

The monitor is relatively thick, but to be fair it’s packing some intense hardware, including a cooling system. The back panel has customizable lighting controlled through the on-screen display (OSD) menu, dual 4W speakers, and a collection of ports in a dedicated cutout section. Altogether it looks rather stylized, especially with the additional thermal vents positioned from the middle out.

Ports include DisplayPort 1.4, HDMI 2.0, 3.5mm audio, three USB-A, and one USB-B, spaced out adequately to not cause crowding if you’re taking advantage of multiple ports. To control the OSD, a joystick and four physical buttons live near the right side of the back panel. There are a number of presets available, including three customizable gaming modes for action, racing, and sports, as well as an eco mode, graphics mode, movie mode, and user mode where you can set things up exactly how you’d like. I was able to delve deep to get the exact picture I wanted, and there are joystick shortcuts — including brightness control — so that you don’t have to open the full menu for common, quick adjustments. A blue-light filter can be enabled to help with gaming or working after hours.

Acer has removed most of the bezel along the top and sides of the display, with a slightly thicker chin along the bottom that includes a Predator logo. It’s an impressive picture. The screen has a bit of an anti-glare finish on it, though it’s not as powerful as you’ll find on something like a business laptop. It’s enough to keep the picture clear without adding too much grain. Considering how bright the monitor gets, especially with HDR enabled, you shouldn’t have any problems gaming in a well-lit room.

Connecting an NVIDIA graphics card (GPU) with DisplayPort allows you to make the most of the X35, including up to a 200Hz refresh rate, 2ms response time, G-Sync Ultimate, and HDR. I mostly used the monitor without the 200Hz overdrive enabled — my PC hardware isn’t quite up to pushing 200 frames — and even at 144Hz without HDR enabled games looked amazing. A 1440p resolution is an ideal middle ground between 1080p and 4K for most people, and with G-Sync turned on the picture is smooth and tear-free.

The panel offers 100% sRGB and 83% AdobeRGB color reproduction, as tested with my Datacolor Spyder5 Pro colorimeter. To put itself in line with VESA DisplayHDR 1000 standards, it also manages about 90% DCI-P3 color. I primarily played Call of Duty: Modern Warfare and Age of Empires II: Definitive Edition; the picture from both games blew me away. The former game, especially in missions with night-vision goggles, made the variable backlight with 512 separate zones especially evident. Dark spots in the scene remained dark despite bright lights nearby, with little to no bleeding over.

The variable backlight (which is also flicker free to be easier on the eyes) is enabled by default with HDR enabled. You might see a bit more bleeding over due to the lights and dark being so much more pronounced, but overall the HDR picture is incredible. The Predator X35 easily offers the best picture I’ve ever seen from a gaming monitor. Colors are vivid without looking unnatural, and every game I tested seemed to take on a new life. The combination of precise color reproduction, high refresh rate with G-Sync, and ultrawide format sucks you in and offers a PC gaming experience that’s not easy to reproduce.

What I dislike about the Acer Predator X35

The Acer Predator X35 delivers an outstanding picture and features premium gaming features, but it’s not a perfect piece of hardware. The dual 4W speakers on the back get loud and they remain clear, though they don’t really deliver anything more than average sound. If you’re watching a movie or playing casually you should find they get the job done, but for any sort of competitive gaming — or for the most immersion possible — you’ll want to invest in either a quality headset or separate set of dedicated gaming speakers.

Monitors with this level of performance include a fan to keep hardware cool, and for the most part you won’t notice the noise overtop of whatever noise is coming from your PC. However, I did notice a few times that turning the monitor off with the physical button rather than letting it go into sleep mode on its own caused the fan to kick into high gear. Leaving my office and returning minutes later, it sounded like someone was vacuuming behind the closed door. This didn’t happen every time, but it did occur more than once. I resorted to leaving the monitor alone after use.

One last thing I noticed during regular use was slight backlight bleed along the bottom edge of the display. It wasn’t anything egregious and it can certainly be ignored, but it is there. And then there’s the price. The Predator X35 reaches nearly $2,500, making it pricier than what most people spend on an entire gaming PC. This puts it into a narrow user-base and makes it a waste of money for anyone not using high-end PC hardware. The NVIDIA RTX 2060 GPU I used to test the monitor with couldn’t come near getting the most out of the X35 when used with modern AAA games. That doesn’t mean I didn’t fully enjoy what I was able to get out of it, but if you’re spending that much money, you want to milk every last drop.

Should you buy the Acer Predator X35?

Answering whether or not you should buy the Acer Predator X35 really comes down to your budget. If you have disposable income to blow on PC gaming, this is about the best picture and performance you’re going to find. The X35 has some flaws, but it’s going to majorly elevate your immersion and enjoyment no matter the game you play.
