The new Google Camera app finally brings features that were once only available on Nexus devices to every other Android snapper out there. Well, as long as those Android devices are running KitKat, that is.


Two of the apps biggest features are Photo Sphere and Lens Blur. If youre remotely familiar with the Nexus 5, or even the Nexus 4 that came before it, Photo Sphere is definitely not a new trick, but it was very limited in terms of who could use it.

Photo Sphere allows you to create panorama-like images with a 360-degree field of view. That means youre not limited to just panning straight across a scene, but you can move your phone camera up or down to include more of the sky and foreground.

The stitching job on the 360 panoramas is pretty good, or at least as good as it can be on a really difficult image to piece together. And youll be able to view them in full on your Android device or on Google+ if you want to share the photos.

Blurry like a DSLR

The next notable feature is Lens Blur, which is similar to what youll find on the HTC One and the Samsung Galaxy S5. Basically, you select your subject and everything else gets blurred out so the focus is mostly on your subject. Its like shooting with shallow depth-of-field on a DSLR.

These photo blurring effects sometimes work very well, and other times they seem very artificial. When its done right, the results can be dreamy and natural. On the other hand, if its a little overdone - like it is on the HTC One compared to the Galaxy S5 - it can look a little gimmicky.

However, if you use it sparingly and carefully, you can get pretty good results and really show your subject and get rid of all the clutter in your photo.

In the end, the Google Camera app is pretty simple, and the UI is designed to make taking photos easier. You can download it via the Play Store now if youre sporting a device with Android 4.4 KitKat. Enjoy!

The massive spread of mobile devices, from tablets to smartphones via the first smartwatch and digital cameras, has led to a habitual behavior held by consumers: that of having to recharge the battery every night of their products, so they are ready for use the day after.

 From this a proliferation of cables and adapters in our homes, with power outlets that seem never enough . Centralizing this constant demand for energy in a single product is the result obtained by HUB IT, practical product developed by the Italian Eggtronic who wants to become the center of home collection of all devices that need to be recharged.

 HUB IT connects to the power outlet providing different power connectors with a modular design: alongside USB 3.0 ports are therefore present Lightning connectors and 30-pin Apple devices, as well as two types of USB connectors. The product can be expanded by changing the 4 modules supplied or by entering up to 5 additional, designed for wireless charging of those products that are compatible with the Qi Wireless Consortium.

 Not only recharge the battery: the connectors also allow you to transmit data signal, sent to our PC or Mac via a USB 3.0 connector located on the back of the device. This makes IT HUB a real connection center of our devices, which need not be equipped with battery: think of an external hard drive that we want to connect to our PC so as to make accessible to mobile devices that we connected to HUB IT.

 The modular design allows both to configure HUB IT according to their personal needs, is to open space for future developments with new accessories. The company is at work on small battery pack which can provide power to the devices even when a loss of the connection of electrical network, in addition to an accessory that provides functionality docking stations Bluetooth.
