Spain is importing a US tactic to empty deceased houses: turn them into temporary markets

Surely you will have seen dozens of times in American movies. Suddenly someone wants to empty a house for whatever reason, because it was the apartment of a freshly deceased relative, because he has to move or simply because he has realized that he has the attic upso organize a market in the house itself. It even has a name: Estate goes out. A kind of Wallapop face -to -face and dedicated to a single home in which everything is sold, from cutlery to shoes, passing through coats, furniture, pictures or crockery. More and more that image of the markets in houses is ceasing to be a Hollywood resource to become common (and helpful) in Spain. A house (and a market). Among vintage stores, normal rakes and households there is an intermediate point: “Housing markets”. His name says it all. They are houses that open to the public so that people can happen, browse what is inside and then decide if they want to take any of their objects, previously inventoried, priced in detail and labeled. From some golf sticks to a coat, a closet, a table, a lamp, a game of cups or skis. In the houses there is everything. In the Estate goes outalso. In fact, it is common to see in the US movies a variant that usually celebrated outdoors and organize the owners of the house with all kinds of articles rescued from the attic, the so -called Garage Saleseither Yard salts. Click on the image to go to Tweet. Objective: Empty houses. The goal is double: empty a house and find new owner to old objects. All of that of course prior payment of the amounts in which each article has been applied. There is no A single reason by which the emptying of a house is reached, although a usual reason is that its owner has died or will no longer live in it because it moves. When that happens, you have to think what to do with everything you leave behind, from furniture to clothes. After all, if any houses are deposits in which, over the years, memories and objects accumulate. With the former you can load, bad that. For the latter, something that does not always abound is needed: space. Question of moving … or deceased. “There is everything here. People who want to empty the floor because he inherited it from their grandparents and do not want to see their belongings in a garbage can and cases like this, which is a rental floor and its tenants must leave it,” I lightened recently to Commerce Marola Argüelles, from Vintage ordera firm of Home Market. While talking with the newspaper he organized a market in a house in Oviedo. “There are many reasons to empty a house”, Another company in the sector coincides. “From a trip for work to the other side of the world, to more sad reasons such as the houses of our elders or after a change in our family structure such as moving, a retirement or a divorce.” But are they celebrated in Spain? And so much. It comes with giving A lap By Google and Bavers the local press to find a good handful of examples. Throughout the last months, markets have been organized in homes in Oviedo, Lion, Seville either Madrid. And that to quote only a handful of cases. In the center of the capital, on Bravo Murillo Street, one was held in autumn that helps to better understand how and why this kind of Wallapops face -to -face and thematic. On that occasion the empty apartment, He recounts The SpanishHe had served a marriage. He already died. She, a woman over 90, lives in a residence. The goal of the market was to give a second life to the objects they had left on the floor: furniture, figures, garments, a sofa … the appointment attracted dozens of people, from curious to antiquers or an art seller to which to observe the objects in their environment. “It is not the same as in a market.” Who organizes it? Professionals who have found in the Estate goes out A business to explode in Spain. An example is Clear spacewhich describes his work of Simple form: “We empty your house, but before we take care of whatever you do not want, giving a second life and receiving money in return.” A few months ago the firm’s driver, Blanca de Carlos explained to The confidential that became familiar with this kind of markets in houses during the time he lived in the US. Already back to Spain and after the death of his father he realized the advantages that the service would have. Your signature is not the only one dedicated to emptying houses and organizing markets. Order architecture, The circular Market, Vintage order, Myhome, Antiquae, Antico Sevilla Interiors… They are businesses with a similar approach and that facilitate the emptying of houses and the organization of markets in the house itself to prevent those furniture, clothing and objects in general that they no longer want (or can have) their owners end up in a container, the clean point or a storage point. The art of emptying. The details of each case may vary, but it is common for emptying work and markets Visit system Concerted to avoid agglomerations, the pieces are recorded and tasan and the company that manages the appointments is carried A percentage of all sales. The objective, companies recognize, is that there is “nothing without selling” in homes, so the prices that can usually be affordable.

Honor will try to be a reference in the AI ​​era. Will invest 10,000 million dollars to achieve it

Honor has taken advantage of his presence in the MWC 2025 to make it clear that he will not miss the AI ​​era. In fact, the Chinese firm has announced its Honor Alpha Plan initiative, aimed at “building an open ecosystem” of AI devices. And it is already very clear how to achieve it and a first example of what we can enjoy on its devices. 10,000 million dollars in five years. The firm will invest a true fortune in the next five years to be able to boost the use of AI systems on its devices, and it seems that the intention here is to raise an open and interoperable approach. It has been associated with Qualcomm or Google to achieve it, which seems to aim especially to Android devices. And a first Agent. The new manufacturer’s AI system, called Honor AI, welcomes “the agricultural era”, and will precisely allow users of their devices to use it to, among other things, reserve a table for dinner with hardly any effort. Reservations in restaurants. In a small demonstration Shared in x Honor showed how it has been possible to integrate its AI with platforms as opening to make a table reservation in a restaurant near the MWC. Honor AI understands you and deduces things alone. In fact, the petition indicated that the reservation would be carried out in order to enjoy local specialties without more, which quickly made the intention “based on location and sought typical dishes of Spanish gastronomy. And it’s just the beginning, they say in honor. From that moment on, the model “begins to reason”, They assured In honor, and after analyzing even traffic to avoid possible delays, it suggests a reservation at a table at 7:30 p.m. The system has been developed in collaboration with Qualcomm and Google to create a functional AI agent that allows you to be connected to APIS dystitnas and platforms to interact with the graphic interfaces of these services without apparent problems. But. The demonstration is very similar to one of those that Amazon made last week when presenting its new Alexa+, which also raises those options of agriculture with which to automate various types of task. It seems clear that these types of options are those that will first reach our devices, and it is very likely that honor is not the only one to offer such an option. Hyperrápidas transfers. In the event, honor managers also talked about a new file transfer system capable of transmitting files between mobile phones from different brands at transfer speeds of 125 Mb/s, but also ensure that this option will also end up reaching Macs, PCs and mobile devices to enjoy those wireless transfers between all those products. AND DEPFAKES detection. With the purpose of protecting our privacy and the security of our data, in honor they have worked in several areas. Thus, they launch their technology to “anonymity” certain data of the photos and prevent them from climbing to the cloud, but they also have another curious system. It is a Deepfake detector, which allows if we receive for example a video or we are in a video call, the system warns us if it is suspected that it can be a video of a person generated by AI and not a real person. Aimage. Honor has also presented a new AI system for image processing taken with its cameras. Called Aimage, it consists in the first place of a kernel of AI. This component uses AI models both in local and in the cloud that will provide various options. For example Improvement of the definition of imagesTelefoto by AI, draft with AI (such as the magic draft of Google) or the “expansion” of images if we need to extend an image for example to be higher or more wide. In Xataka | The AI ​​is not starting on Western phones. China has very different plans with Depseek and its brands

It is a golden opportunity for Samsung

If there has been a company that has opted for AI over its rivals, that is Samsung. Last year, with the launch of The Galaxy S24 familythe brand first introduced what it considered a “Ai Phone”. A telephone whose focus, in addition to a first level hardware, was AI. He didn’t convince me. After months using this device on a day -to -day basis, I could not find the sweet point. As soon as I analyzed the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra I knew that something had changed. The AI ​​was not something passenger, I was just taking its initial steps. With One UI 7everything worked in a more mature way. So much that for the first time I was in mind that the phone had those functions and that it was worth using them. I have been able to talk about what Samsung’s vision is with AI, how consumers are using it in the real world, and what is the company’s future vision with David Alonso, Head of Mobile Business Iberia In Samsung Electronics. The AI ​​in the Samsung Galaxy: the reality of the claim In Samsung they know that it is not enough to have a frontline hardware to sell phones, it is necessary to differentiate. Although the entire high range is beginning to implement IA, the company has been a pioneer. The golden question is clear: How many users are using it and for what? David replies that, with the launch of the Galaxy S24 It was the first time that integrated functionalities were incorporated naturally and designed to use in a day -to -day basis. Regarding how many people they are using them, two data sources use: some come from their own use data and others are derived from a Market Study in IPSOS Collaboration. According to their results, more than 60% of Samsung users use AI functions (every week). The two most prominent have them well located: Circle to Search and everything related to the camera and image editing. An interesting point of debate between David and Xataka is given in If artificial intelligence is really the claim that promises to be. Annual sales data show us that the sale of smartphones still has a very marginal growth, although the consultants point year after year that, at some point, the AI ​​will be decisive for the boom of sales. Here David is clear: the Galaxy S24 family meant Samsung an increase in sales above 20% compared to the Galaxy S23, a significant fact regarding the market situation. Adding these sales figures to your use data, your conclusion is that AI is a reality of sale for new devices. “A very, very significant percentage of more than 50% of users are really saying that they provide value and that the user experience is really improving.” He also tells us that this market growth trend, which had been stagnant since 2021, is indicative of a trend change. What is happening in the smartphones market They sell more mobile, And more and more expensive. He Premium segment is triggereddespite the fact that the market is focusing on small improvements more than substantial changes. The smartphone industry is focusing on refine the hardware, and highlighting for the software. The dilemma? Nothing technically prevents a Galaxy S24 ultra executing the functions of an ultra S25. How do they fight against that dilemma that the main sales argument are functions that the previous model can enjoy? In Samsung they are clear that their strategy and philosophy is precisely that, not only giving these functionalities to users of new devices, but also users of previous models as well. On an exclusive level, at least for a while, the Ultra can enjoy and all their advances. David points out, in the same way, the changes at the hardware level (especially optimized for these devices, such as the Snapdragon 8 Elite) They also allow this implementation of Galaxy AI to work even better than on other devices. In Spain we are different, or so says the saying. So much so that while the phones of 1,000 euros shoot, mid -range phones also sweep sales. What differentiates a Spanish buyer compared to the rest of European consumers? The answer confirms the myth: “I believe that we do not stop having a market and similar customs but, on the other hand, we have detected that the increase in sales of this” Super Premium “range has been greater than in other parts of Europe.” He tells us that Spanish consumer is beginning to be more demanding. For gossip A little more, I ask David to chive What are the characteristics that most value and look for Spanish consumers When buying a smartphone. It tells us that it depends on the segment and type of user, but that the AI ​​has been (at least this last year) the most wanted and main driver for the purchase, at least in the case of Samsung. But, beyond AI, there are some characteristics that have been moving the phone industry for years and that are still there. The camera is most important for users, not only due to gross characteristics, but for postprocessing quality. Along with this, the battery life (not the milliamps hour). “It is not a matter of the more better, but that the more it lasts, the better.” Ecosystem and future Talking about Samsung is talking about an ultra galaxy s25. But it is also talking about a ring, a clock or a fridge. From Korea the message that comes to Europe is clear: all software will be called one UI, regardless of the operating system that is executed. Asked What to attend to this strategy And if I could generate some confusion, as long as my TV with One UI will run Tizen and my galaxy, Android. David responds, very reason and landing in the real world, that he and I know what we are talking about when we talk about Tizen, but that a standard client … Read more

Possibly you have never thought about connecting headphones to your domestic network, but that is precisely the great novelty of the latest Xiaomi headphones. Buds 5 pro arrive with a wifi version which promises to make the most of this type of wireless connection to bring audio quality to a new level. Let’s take a close look at this new product, which arrives accompanied by other interesting releases such as Xiaomi 15, Xiaomi 15 Ultra, Xiaomi Watch S4 and the new ones Xiaomi Pad 7 and Pad 7 Pro.

We are talking about characteristics superior to what Bluetooth can offer today. To take advantage of this function we need a compatible mobile, such as the new Xiaomi 15 series, and high quality audio files or streaming services such as Amazon Music HD. From there, the process is automatic: the phone will be in charge of sharing the credentials of the Wi -Fi network with the headphones without complications. Thanks to Qualcomm Xpan, the transition between Bluetooth and Wifi aims to be completely fluid. The system will dynamically adjust the codec speed to maintain a stable connection and offer the best possible sound quality, both calls and music streaming or voice commands for AI attendees. The good news is that this type of connection will allow us to enjoy music with the best quality at home, provided we have a good wifi coverage. The bad news is that this experience will not be available when we go out, either when playing sports, traveling in the subway or simply moving around the city, where we will depend solely on the Bluetooth connection. As for the rest of the specifications, these headphones offer up to 10 hours of autonomy, expandable at 40 hours with the load case.

The three hidden jewels among the Nominated of the 2025 Oscar that we recommend seeing yes or yes this year

The Oscars are very far every year from doing justice with Your nomineesif what you want is to make sure you watch the best movies of the year. There are capital absences (let’s not say if your menu is not exclusively composed of Hollywood) that are sometimes given by issues as absurd as the premiere dates (in this edition it has happened to ‘rivals’). But let’s recognize it, the Oscars also serve to peck nominations and find hidden jewels among the nominees. We recommend these three. The boys from Nickel Finally it reaches our screens (specifically through Prime Video) the movie Maybe visually more daring and unique of all the nominees for best film. It takes us to Florida, in the sixties, where a young African -American is transferred by error to a reformatory where others like him are segregated with the aim of indoctrinating them. The peculiar of this proposal is that it is shot in the first person, and the perspective of the camera is that of its protagonist. A radical exercise, of a rabidly anti -racist message, and that makes a series of visual bets that have made it one of the most deservedly acclaimed tapes of the year. Nominated A: Best film, best adapted script Where to see it: In Prime video Flow, a world to save If they ask us, we are of the opinion that the category of best animation film hides many more essential films than the best film to dry. The very curious ‘Memoirs of a snail’, the trchantery new adventure of Wallace & Gromit, the almost safe winner ‘Wild Robot’ and our favorite, ‘Flow’, an incredible silent adventure, winner of a Golden Globe and that portrays the dumb trip of a group of animals commanded by a cat. Evocator, visually spectacular and very suggestive, without a doubt one of this year’s films. Nominated A: Best International Film, Best Animation Film Where to see it: Cinemas The needle girl You still cannot see it because, against usual, it will reach our screens after the ceremony, on March 21, but we recommend that you notice in your cinephile agenda this drama based on real events and that it grabs aesthetics of horror cinema to tell a story slightly inspired by that of a Danish serial killer of the beginning of the century. In the film, a pregnant and unemployed young woman helps to direct an old woman a clandestine adoption agency, all wrapped in a disturbing black and white photograph that converts the heartbreaking period of scoring an authentic nightmare. Nominated A: Best International Film Where to see it: Premiere date: March 21 In Xataka | ‘Dune 2’ is designed to sweep in the Oscars. That finally is not going to do it is the best radiography of the current Hollywood

Satellite images have revealed an unknown complex in Neom. It is so luxurious that it can only be for a person

The last thing we knew about Neom was possibly what was most moving away from the ambitious project that has Saudi Arabia. Apparently, the Futurist City proposal will not be exclusively on luxury hotels and futuristic skyscrapers. There will be much more, among other things, an agreement to become a Pointer space for AI. The latest: such an exclusive and unknown complex that can only be for a person. A luxurious palatial complex. He Neom megaprojectthe ambitious initiative of around 2 billion dollars from Saudi Arabia to transform its economy and position itself as a global reference in technology, innovation and tourism, has once again news this week after the dissemination of satellite images that reveal an unknown architecture: the Construction of a lavish palace On the Red Sea coast. Elon Musk vs Jeff Bezos: The Galaxies War Captured in January by the satellite technology company Maxar Technologies and published in a documentary of the Business Insider mediumthe images show an exclusive complex with private beaches, extensive gardens, a golf course and up to 10 helipuertos. It can only be for a person. As The medium pointsthis palace clearly points to a more than possible residence: that of the heir prince Mohammed Bin Salman. In addition, although from the project no one has talked about this architecture, the satellite plans coincide with the previous data reported by Reuters in 2018when at the dawn of the project the award of the first contracts to build up to five royal palaces in the region was mentioned, approximately 170 kilometers from Tabuk. Neom: a megaproject with light and dark. We have told it several times. Neom is the central pillar of the Mohammed Bin Salman modernization plan, designed to diversify the Saudi economy and reduce its oil dependence. And of all the initiatives, its boldest proposal It’s The Linethat vertical city of 170 kilometers long, conceived as a futuristic model of sustainable urbanization. However, the project has faced financial challengesenvironmental controversies and concerns for human rights (He even has talked about deaths). Originally scheduled to complete in 2030, development has slowed down significantly (even thought that it would be aborted at some point). At present, it is estimated that only a section of 2.5 kilometers called Hidden Marinait could be ready for that date. A prince and his lifestyle. Also counted in the middle that Prince Mohammed Bin Salman is known for his luxurious lifestyle and its expensive property portfolio. Among its most outstanding acquisitions are a Château in southern France valued at 300 million dollars and a 300 million dollars supery, reflecting the level of opulence with which its figure is related. The construction of the Palace in Neom, therefore, seems to fit within this pattern of great personal investments in the middle of a national colossal project. Neom: between ambition and reality. In short, the pharaonic project represents the most ambitious attempt of Saudi Arabia for redefining its economic future and its global image. However, the difficulties in its execution, the Lack of foreign investments and concerns about their environmental and social impact put in Interdicted your viability In the short term. The revelation of the private palace within the megaproject only adds more questions about the true nature of at least, leaves any reasonable doubt: are we facing a step towards that future of the kingdom that is advertised, or a symbol of excesses and megalomania in the middle of a plan of the most uncertain?

This camera is a dream of fulfilled. And I haven’t squeezed even 10%

This phone is going to be simply incredible. I do not usually start my first impressions with such energy, but the Xiaomi 15 ultra is worthy of applause. In a high -end market in which it could practically copy and paste the table of specifications of some models and others, It is more difficult than ever differentiating, and Xiaomi has achieved it. From a spectacular and differential design to a much deeper mobile photography approach than usual. I have been able to try the Xiaomi 15 Ultra for a few days, and I want to tell you my first impressions with him. This is how Xiaomi money earns – they attract you and catch you Xiaomi 15 Ultra Technical Card Xiaomi 15 Ultra Dimensions and weight 161.3 x 75.3 x 9.4 mm 226g Screen 6.73 “AMOLED WQHD+ 3,200 x 1,440 px (20: 9) 120 Hz Up to 3,200 nits Processor Snapdragon 8 Elite Memory 16 GB LPDDR5X Storage 512 GB UFS 4.0 battery 5,420 mAh 90W fast charge 50W wireless load Rear cameras Main: 50MP, 1 inch, f/1.63 – f/4.0, Hyperois Telefoto: 50MP, F/1.8, 75 mm, OIS Super Telefoto: 200 MP, F/2.6, 100 mm, 4.3x, ois Great angle: 50 MP, F/1.8, 122º, 12 mm Front camera 32 MP, F/2.0 Operating system Hyperos based on Android 15 Sound DUAL SHEEPS DOLBY ATMOS Connectivity Wifi 7Bluetooth 5.4GPSNFCInfrared OTHERS IP68 price From 1,499 euros (16+512 GB) Xiaomi 15 Ultra – 16+ 512GB smartphone, Leica Summilux optical lens, Snapdragon 8 Elite, WQHD+ 6.73 “120 Hz, 120 Hz, 90W Hypercharge, charger not included, black (ES version) * Some price may have changed from the last review Design, let’s talk about design Our Xiaomi 15 Ultra has a very striking, very striking design (if you don’t like inventions, you can always buy it in black or white, but this is a pass). Maybe it is difficult to convey how it feels in photographs, but For photography lovers this is a very sweet toy. It has a finish that mixes vegan leather with glass alloy, does not pick up just traces, has a very good grip and, despite being a huge telephone of 16 centimeters high, is quite comfortable in hand. They wanted to make a tribute to the Leica cameras and, in my opinion, the play has gone well. If we turn it, we find the typical Quad-Curve screen that is so fashionable on high-end phones coming from China. Personally, I do not fascinate the curved screens, but I must admit that this format is quite aesthetic at the visual level and that, at least in my experience, It does not bother at all to the touch or suffer from ghost touches. The maximum brightness is 3,200 Nits (in a 25% portion of the panel in HDR content), and is seen in the sun. The only thing that I miss, taking into account that they have already implemented this technology on one of its tablets, is a matt coating to avoid reflexes. There Xiaomi could have differentiated from the rest of his rivals and compete from you to you with We already know who. Hyperos takes a step towards AI The manufacturers are centralizing efforts in the functions of their phones, and last year we saw a somewhat lagging xiaomi in this aspect. In this Xiaomi 15 ultra we find a section dedicated to artificial intelligence, as well as native integration with Gemini. Everything is part of Hyperos 2 based on Android 15, a somewhat more advanced system. I have to say that I liked integration: it is discreet, The system does not give grilled with messages “I have a lot, you use me”and the few functions that are integrated work native discreetly. Specifically, these are the news in this model: Writing with AI Gallery editor with AI (edition of photographs with generative image expansion, improvement of clarity, draft, videos created with AI) Voice recognition with AI (automatic transcription with distinction between speakers) Interpret conversations with the no connection Interpreter with Ia Subtitles with AI Yes, they are not the most striking or powerful functions of the moment, but it is a simple and honest integration. About the rest, I will detail in the review, although the summary is that Miui Hyperos remains Miui Hyperos This mobile is made by and for photographers Xiaomi 15 Ultra. Manual mode. RAW A JPEG FROM ADOBE CAMERA RAW. I will quickly go through the hardware of this phone, since it is exactly what you are thinking: a Snapdragon 8 Elite16 + 512 GB of memory, 5.430MAH battery and a 6.73 OLED 2K (3,200 x 1,440) screen with a 3,000nits peak brightness and a PWM Dimming of 1,920 Hz, quite high. It is early to give conclusions about autonomy and performance, but I already anticipate that at the hardware level it will be difficult to give it too many ear pulls. The only one is its battery, of 5.410mah. It is not a bad capacity, but the Chinese model has 6,000Mah. There are several manufacturers that, for some reason, are bringing to Europe telephones with less capacity. Bad news for us. An inch sensor. Teleobjective 4.3x of 200 MP, second telephoto and ultra wide angle of 50 MP. I’m starting to salivate The key to this phone is the camera, and it is that it opens a brutal Teleobjective with a 200 megapixel sensor And a 1/4 “size. The main sensor, one more year, is Sony Lyt-900, a beast of an inch. The lenses have been redesigned and the coating of them has been improved, promising to avoid reflexes. This according to Xiaomi is especially important in night photographs, where the reflexes can end the photograph. It is today, The smartphone with the highest hardware potential on camera to date. He is accompanied by an optical teleobjective of three increases of 50 megapixels, a new teleobjective of 200 megapixels with Zoom 4.3x and an ultra wide angle, also of 50 megapixels.

New Xiaomi Pad 7 and Pad 7 Pro, characteristics, price and technical file

Xiaomi has taken the artillery during this edition of the Mobile World Congress (MWC). And it has not only presented its smartphones Xiaomi 15 and 15 ultra; He has also announced the launch of his smart watch Watch S4his Smart Band 9 Pro, and even of his last Scooters electric However, this is not all. The protagonists of this article are two Tablets to the last That, on paper, they paint really well. And not only for his hardware. In the table of specifications that we publish under this paragraph you can see that the Tablets Xiaomi Pad 7 and Pad 7 Pro propose a screen that bets on a LCD panel of 11.2 inches and 3.2K resolution capable of working at a maximum refreshment frequency of 144 Hz. With regard to the screen there is no difference between these two devices, although there are in two important sections that are worth not overlooked. Xiaomi Pad 7 and Pad 7 Pro: Technical Specifications Xiaomi Pad 7 Xiaomi Pad 7 Pro screen LCD 3.2K of 11.2 inches, 144 Hz and appearance ratio 3: 2 LCD 3.2K of 11.2 inches, 144 Hz and appearance ratio 3: 2 Soc Qualcomm Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3 Qualcomm Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 main memory 8 GB 12 GB storage 128 GB 512 GB Operating system Xiaomi Hyperos + Xiaomi Hyperai Xiaomi Hyperos + Xiaomi Hyperai connectivity USB 3.2 Gen 1 Wi-Fi 6 Bluetooth 5.4 USB 3.2 Gen 1 Wi-Fi 6 Bluetooth 5.4 sound Four speakers Dolby Atmos Four speakers Dolby Atmos battery 8,850 mAh 8,850 mAh fast charge 45 watts 67 watts dimensions 251 x 173 x 6 mm 251 x 173 x 6 mm weight 500 g 500 g price 8 GB + 128 GB: 399 euros 8 GB + 256 GB: 499 euros 12 GB + 512 GB: 649 euros Xiaomi’s AI aspires to tear down the limitations of other ‘tablets’ The Xiaomi Pad 7 incorporates a Snapdragon 7+ Gen 3 soc, a chip that on paper should offer us a consistent performance with which we can demand a state -of -the -art tablet. Even so, the PAD 7 Pro model proposes an even more capable soc: an Snapdragon 8s Gen 3. It will be interesting to check whether in a daily use scenario the performance difference between these two chips is really evident. In any case, these two Tablets They differ in two other relevant sections. The simplest model, Pad 7, is committed to 8 GB of main memory, while Pad 7 Pro proposes 12 GB The simplest model, Pad 7, is committed to 8 GB of main memory, while PAD 7 Pro proposes a maximum of 12 GB. The other relevant difference is the power used by the rapid charging system of these two Tablets. Pad 7 reaches 45 watts, while Pad 7 Pro increases this figure Up to 67 watts. Of course, both devices incorporate a battery of 8,850 mAh, although presumably their autonomy can vary slightly due to the consumption difference of the two Qualcomm socates for those who bet. Regarding connectivity both Tablets They have a USB 3.2 Gen 1 port, Wi-Fi 6 and Bluetooth 5.4. Nothing to object to here. Whatever we have not yet investigated in two of the most interesting characteristics of these Xiaomi proposals. One of them is your operating system. And both incorporate Hyperos, which is based on Android, but enriched with the added functionalities of Hyperai. Xiaomi proposes two optional accessories to get more up to these tablets: a keyboard and an optical pencil This software of artificial intelligence (AI) expands the capacities of some of the applications proposed by Xiaomi in these tablets. The voice recorder, for example, can now transcribe and translate automatically. In addition, AI Art is capable of generating reliable images; Creativity Assistant allows us to accurately eliminate objects from any image, among other benefits, and with AI Dynamic Wallpapers we can create images with movement from a static image.

If you have the impression that hotels are more expensive than ever, no, they are not your impressions. As the sector grows in Spain and the flow of foreign tourists reaches record levelsanother key indicator for accommodations also rebound: prices. Grow. At a good pace. Above Even inflation. And do so coinciding with A boom of the tourist floors that has already led to the administration to take action by Its impact In the residential offer. The data are of course revealing. A fact: 94 million. 2024 was a good year for Spanish tourism. Or at least this is reflected by the data handled by the Government, which in January He checked Due to the figures harvested by the sector: throughout 2024 the country received about 94 million foreign visitors, a record balance that exceeds the data of 2023 by 10% and arrived accompanied by a 16% rebound in spending, which in counting and sound money translates into around 126,000 million of euros. The Ministry of Industry and Tourism Trust In addition, the streak is maintained in 2025. Its estimates suggest that during the first four -month period will receive 26 million tourists, 9% more than last year, with an even more pronounced rise in spending. Things are somewhat different if we talk about the trips of residents in Spain, than in The third quarter Of 2024 they suffered a slight fall. January data 2025 2024 2023 2022 2021 2020 2O19 Daily average rate (ADR) € 112.8 104.9 95.7 85.7 62.2 82.1 81.4 Hotel Price Index (IPH) 141.9 133.7 124.2 112.1 95.2 106.5 105.4 Income by available room (Revpar) € 64.1 58.9 51.7 33.7 12.6 44.6 43.3 And prices? The flow of tourists imports, but it also matters the evolution of prices in hotels. And the INE data are in that case even clearer: the so -called daily average rate (ADR), which shows the daily average income obtained by occupied room, has grown at a good pace in the last years. The data varies depending on the month (as does the flow of tourists), but if we take as a reference August the progression is clearly appreciated: in 2024 it was 146.9 euros, in 2023 of 136.8 and before the pandemic, in 2019, it was at 109.3. In December it was 117, the largest ADR at the end of one year. Are there more clues? Yes. The income by available room and what the INE calls “Hotel price indices” (Iph). The latter is an interesting clue because it shows the evolution of prices that apply to customers housed in hotels, from the optics of the offer and including both normal rates and those charged on weekends in professional circuits, such as Turoperadores, large groups and companies. In December 2024, the iPph was 144.8 compared to 137 of the same month of 2023 and 109.7 of 2019, just before the pandemic. In general, it is the highest indicator for a year closure of the entire historical series, which starts in 2002. In its analysis, the INE takes into account all LPS Hotels, from the most basic to the five stars. Click on the image to go to Tweet. Going down even more in detail. A few days ago economist Ángel Talavera shared in X A series of data of Oxford Economics and Hover Analytics that help to better understand how hotels prices in Spain have evolved over the last five years. Specifically, it indicates the last rise in the rates, but above all its increase with respect to those charged before COVID-19. “Already almost 40% above prepandymia prices, which represents 20% more expensive by adjusting for inflation,” Precise The expert. Your data They reflect an increase in income from available room even greater, of almost 50%, and they arrive accompanied by some interesting reflections, such as the businesses that rise most are precisely those most expensive and cheapest, standing out with respect to intermediate accommodations. Comparing with the CPI. Another of the keys indicated by Talavera is the evolution of the cost of accommodation with respect to the evolution of IPC and the differences between them. The expert appreciates a clear “decoupling” Since mid -2022, with a significantly higher increase in hotel prices. The data The Ministry of Industry and Tourism also help to get an idea of ​​the evolution of the General Price Index and the specific tourism and hospitality. The trend is especially interesting in recent years, coinciding with the rise in rates in accommodations, largely driven by destinations such as Marbella or Ibiza, with historical prices. The data correspond to full years, except in the case of the current exercise. And what are the reasons? There are several keys. The economist points out an especially interesting: the double speed at which national and abroad tourism progresses. The data of Hotel occupation The INE shows that while the second grew 8.2%, that of the residents experienced a slight fall. TO The less at the country’s lodging receptions its number decreased 0.7%. Among the foreigners, the arrivals of the United Kingdom, Germany or France, countries with a per capita income higher than the Spanish. Over the last years the sector has also been marked by The boom of holiday rental, which has already forced the administration (both The central as at the level regional and local) to move file to control its impact on the residential market. The INE also shows how the Price index Tourist apartments has increased sensitively. Images | Martijn vonk (Unspash) and Segitur In Xataka | Spanish tourism faces the real risk of dying of success.
