We have convinced ourselves all these years that OLED was the most. Sony Sony with LED RGBs promise to change everything

Although OLED technology has advanced considerably in the Smart TVS industry, with technologies as impressive as the latest generation of panels QD-OED of Samsung or the Primary RGB OLED of LG in its new line of televisions, there are manufacturers that are betting even more for the Miniladsince it offers benefits that, in combination with the innovation that is yet to come, could put in a good squeeze those pure blacks and colors of the OLED. Sony is one of those manufacturers. And it already made it very clear to us in 2024 with its commitment to Minned technology with its Bravia 9being the type of panel chosen for its most premium televisions range after that excellent A95L of 2023. Recently, we have seen that this movement still makes more sense, since they have just presented The new technology in which they will bet in 2026: RGB LED. This is how a minied panel could behave like an oled The company has just revealed that they are working to integrate this new type of technology into their future televisions. His intention is to incorporate An RGB LED matrix to backlit the panels of its televisions (Currently, the LEDs of the retroiluminated matrix are all blue). This, unlike the most leading minied panel panel system, means that, in addition to brightness control through local attenuation zones, it could also be reached control one’s color and luminosity of LEDs of the unit that backs the panel. Conventional LED backlight system by zones. Image: Sony This would translate into a better management and control of the brightness and color of each scene, which in broad strokes could Simulate the behavior of organic and self -emissive LEDs of the OLED, but with the advantage of the greatest brightness of the Minned panels. The system allows Sony to adjust the luminance in line to the gradation of the color itself The RGB retroiluminated panel (Red, Green, Blue) would offer high density backight with the ability to Individually control the three primary colorsas indicated from Sony. The company ensures that the panel allows each RGB color to emit light independently, promising great purity in color and the possibility of reproducing a range of broader and brighter colors. It is not the first time that Sony embarks on this technology. In fact, in 2004 he showed the first LCD TV in the world with Full Array LED RGB backlit. From that moment, the company has been following this system very closely, and now that current technology allows great brightness control through local attenuation zones, it was time to boost this technology again. RGB LED system, eliminating the quantum points layer and offering control of the color and brightness of each LED in the backlit matrix. Image: Sony Sony promises a coverage of the 99% DCI-P3 color space and approximately 90% in the ITU-R BT.2020 standard. Combining independent RGB LED control with the control of the attenuation zones of its televisions, Sony promises Scenes with much more contrast and colorin combination with the already excellent brightness offered by their panels, touching the 4,000 peak nits. Color volume of each technology. Image: Sony The system allows Sony to adjust the luminance in line to the gradation of the color itself. In this way, the company promises reach much more living and bright details. In addition, the system would process the signal at high speed, with rates of up to 96 bits. That LEDs allow us to reproduce primary colors means that The panel would not need aggressive color filters in pixels such as quantum points panels. This causes less light to be absorbed during the process, which allows the panel to work more efficiently. Sony will start producing them this year, but it is not the only Sony is collaborating with Mediatek for the development of chips that will be in charge of controlling each of the individual backlit leds. According to the company, The system will begin to produce in series this yearwith the aim of integrating technology into consumer televisions and screens for content creation in 2026. The company has not been the first to announce the arrival of this technology on its televisions. In fact, signatures like Samsung, Hisense and TCl have already been encouragedwith a view to seeing the first in the market to include this technology during the second half of 2025. For Sony, entering this technology makes a lot of sense in its strategy, as the company went from considering its QD-Osed model as its most premium range to the Bravia 9 with Minned technology and its performance very close to its reference monitor. The company, with its motto ‘Cinema Is Coming Home’, aims to give priority to color reproduction as masterful in recording studios, bringing that experience home. And the combination of its already excellent Minned technology, management of local attenuation zones, and now its backlit matrix with RGB LEDs, allows you to easily facilitate that task.

They have convinced us that thin mobiles have to sacrifice drums. It is half truth

The thinness of the smarpthone begins to be an issue. We don’t know why, but it is. Samsung has as your family’s star Samsung Galaxy S25 A mysterious Galaxy S25 Edge Ultradelgado. Oppo has obsessed with this data to improve the design of your Find N5and the strongest rumor on mobile technology by 2025 is the next iPhone 17 Aira model that will supposedly stand out for its data of thinness. Manufacturing a specially thin mobile usually comes from the hand of a usual problem: the battery is usually quite just. The Chinese manufacturer Tecno has shown that this does not have to be so and that, technically, it is possible to manufacture an extremely thin phone with a level battery. Tecno Spark Slim. Do not look for this phone on the Tecno website, because it is not on sale. The Spark Slim is the thinnest mobile in the world (at least, right now), with a thickness of only 5.75mm. It is almost half of what the most top phones usually have (which are around 8mm) and, all this, without sacrificing battery. Its battery is 5,200mah, a battery even larger than we find on much thicker phones. In addition, the weight is also a record: Tecno has been achieved by a figure of only 140 grams. We do not know its processor, although the company tells us that it has not yet been presented. The screen is of no less than 6.78 inches, amoled and with a 4,500 nits peak shine, so we are not facing a reduced SPECS phone. The key… and the sacrifices. Tecno has not relieved images of the internal construction of his Spark Slim, but it does give a curious fact: his battery has a thickness of only 4mm. A record has been achieved, introducing a much larger battery than usual is an extremely thin phone. Although we have not been able to try it thoroughly, achieving something like this always has costs. Otherwise, all manufacturers would follow this path. If we look at the camera module, it can be seen that the sensors seem quite small. It is inevitable: if the vast majority of the body is drums, there is not too much space for large sensors. To achieve this thickness, it is also difficult to add elements such as steam cameras, large speakers, or other elements that enrich hardware. Despite this, it seems clear that any user needs: a great battery, a processor, and a couple of cameras. An inevitable trend. Achieving extreme thinness is a trend. The great manufacturers (OPPO, Samsung and expected Apple) begin to a race whose purpose we do not know, and whose future sales will reveal the unknown: whether to fight for thinness really revives demand, or if it is a race without too much sense.

There are people convinced that in 2030 we will achieve immortality. These are your arguments

Live more and live better, but above all live more. Longevity is the obsession of many, including some “futurologists” who believe that eternal life (understood as the end of deaths due to natural cause) is close. Objective 2029. As close as This same decade. Before even its end, to be exact. That is the forecast of Google and “futuristic” Ray Kurzweil’s exingender. This was what I pointed out a few months ago In an interview For the company Bessemer Venture Partners. This raises some doubts, as this arguments based on this notion and if we are close to getting out of death indefinitely. In the interview, Kurzweil expressed it as follows: “Science advances and is healing several diseases. You are receiving on average about four months a year (…) however, scientific research is also in an exponential curve. By 2029, you will have received a whole year account. So you lose a year, but you receive a year back. ” “Exhaust speed ”. Kurzweil’s idea revolves around Longevity escape speed concept. In physics, the exhaust speed is a speed that allows us to counteract the gravitational pull of a body and boost away from it thanks to the simple inertia. In this context, the escape speed means something different, which does not lead us to escape something physical but to get away from death from death. The idea is simple, and that is that the increase in life expectancy grows exponentially until it reaches a point where this life expectancy increases in more than a year. Thanks to advances in medicine and other fields, life expectancy has been significantly increasing throughout the world, but, at least for now, indefinitely prolong our life expectancy looks like a simple chimera. Arguments For a short time, if we trust the Kurzweil arguments. The main argument is the rapid advance of contemporary medicine. Medical advances have allowed us to overcome numerous infectious diseases through treatments and vaccines. Kurzweil himself puts as an example the speed with which the Covid vaccine (obviating perhaps the titanic development effort, which was also based on previous works in immunization and genetic). However, it is also true that we continue advancing a lot in the fight against diseases such as cancers. We are even close to Replicate technology which gave us the Covid vaccine in the fight against some tumors. On the other hand, diseases closely linked to age such as Alzheimer’s or Parkinson continue to be a challenge for scientists who still seek to understand the causes of these disorders to combat them effectively. Not just health. The increase in life expectancy is not only limited to the health field. Our world is safer than it was in the past. Transport is safer than a few decades ago, less frequent wars, and violent crimes occur to a lesser extent. These factors have also contributed to the increase in life expectancy and is likely (not sure) to continue doing it in the future. Not so fast. There are those who believe that we will reach the exhaust speed soon without reaching Kurzweil’s optimism. For example, George Church, a genetic expert at Harvard University that indicated that, perhaps throughout our lives, we can reach this evolutionary point. A little more optimistic than Church, Aubrey de Gray, president of the Longevity Escape Velocity Foundation, proposes that it will be throughout the 2030s when we reach it. Will it arrive? There are many reasons to be skeptics, not only with the ambitious Kurzweil agenda, but with the very concept of escape speed of longevity. As we indicated above, there are reasons for some skepticism. For example, the fact that advances in a disease do not imply advances in others. Even cancer is so varied that it implies that, while some are perfectly treatable, others still represent a huge threat to our life. Infectious diseases represent another stumbling block: although we had advanced a lot in the creation of vaccines and antibiotics, the latter are losing efficacy by leaps and bounds before the arrival of the “superbacteria.” Neurodegenerative diseases also remind us that not only just dodge death, while we do not improve our quality of life in the last stages of our life, these improvements will be little.

Art of Vengeance ‘has convinced me that the new Ninja fashion is the best recent resurrection in the industry

We are not going to fool ourselves: I have a weakness for the ‘Shinobi’ saga. The first installment came to obsess me in the times of the recreational, and its relatively quiet rhythm and its clear and easy mechanics to dominate them became one of the few arcades that I managed to end in its day, not without a considerable investment of time and money . Since then, ‘Shinobi’ has been one of my untouchable absolute video games of the eighties. The best thing was yet to come. And that we still had to see the best incarnations of ‘Shinobi’. After taste practically all the domestic ports of the recreational (special kudos for the crazy version of Master System), I had the opportunity to immerse myself in the magnificent ‘Shinobi’ for Mega Drive: ‘Shinobi II’ and ‘Shadow Dancer’. Absolute 2D wonders that multiplied the possibilities of the original recreational. Ninja avalanche. I was never too interested in the lazy 3D adventures of the ‘Shinobi’ franchise in PlayStation 2 or portable, but his spirit I think they picked up and amplified the ‘Ninja Gaiden’ in 3D, especially the first two, under the direction of Tomonobu Itagaki: Brutal and ruthless, of the most difficult and satisfactory games in history. Laugh from the ‘souls’. I have always been excited about the original trilogy of NES, a kind of accelerated and insane version of the ‘Shinobi’ themselves, and even the original arcade ‘Shadow Warriors’, but in my diet ninja the thing has always worked like this: in 2D,’ Shinobi ‘; In 3D, ‘Ninja Gaiden’. And between them, Cannon’s films. The return of the Ninja. The point is that, riding the nostalgic fever that ravages the entertainment industry, both franchises have allowed themselves to return with new versions and sequelae that we can enjoy in the coming months. On the one hand, we have a new sequel to the main saga of Ninja Gaiden, A fourth installment (Perhaps the project that interests the least, despite the fact that the participation of Plantinum Games always attracts attention); ‘Ninja Gaiden: Ragebound‘, on the other hand, it is a 2D and pixelated reformulation at the hands of the’ Blasphemous’ team, and which seems to guarantee a deep and demanding game; And finally, ‘Ninja Gaiden II Black‘, a total and already available remake of the original 360 game and demonstrates why we continue to contemplate it as a masterpiece. The art of revenge. But it is that ‘Shinobi’ also returns with ‘SHINOBI: Art of Vengeance‘, And as’ Ragebound ‘, with a team of bells expert in retro mechanics behind: Lizardcube, responsible for the superb and recent’Streets of Rage 4‘. It will arrive in August and in addition to a mechanic that pays tribute to the 16 -bit originals, we have an absolutely magnificent graphic finish, which honors not only the first games, but also the anime and the European comic. Ninjas for a resurrection. Here you are not going to see us launch alive to the eternal cyclical returns of the industry and their retail constant of success franchises. But ‘Shinobi’ and ‘Ninja Gaiden’ seem to me differently: a taste is seen in these new versions that goes beyond the exploitation of nostalgic corpses. In addition, neither of the two franchises has abandoned certain principles (demanding, violent and visually very polished games), which gives them at least the benefit of the doubt: until now, after all, they have not disappointed us.
