Samsung Reveals Quad-Core Exynos 4 for Galaxy S3 Superphone
April 26, 2012 1:19 PM
New chip is likely to power the Galaxy S3
With the Galaxy S3 super-phone from the
world's top Android phonemaker
, Samsung Electronics Comp., Ltd. (
), set to launch at a special event in London, UK on May 3, the hot question on everyone's mind is what might be inside. Samsung might have tipped its hand regarding the system-on-a-chip (SoC) driving the phone, today announcing its quad-core variant of the fourth generation of
While Samsung continues to play with Texas Instruments Inc.'s (
) OMAP processors (a potential acquisition target), the South Korean firm still makes much of its CPUs in-house. It's a pretty poorly kept secret that Samsung also manufactures
virtually all the CPUs for its smartphone arch-nemesis
Apple, Inc.'s (
) iPad and iPhone.
Even as the firm is rumored to be preparing
its fifth generation
chip for PC offerings, the
4 quad core -- clocked at 1.4 GHz -- represents the company's direct response to its competitors quad core designs like NVIDIA Corp.'s (
and Qualcomm Inc.'s (
. Samsung claims that despite adding two cores, the die-shrink from 45 nm to 32 nm allowed it to drop power draw by 20 percent, while doubling computation power.
The new chip is built on Samsung's
mature 32 nm high-K metal gate (HKMG) technology
, a process refinement that helps fight leakage, the power losses that plague the semiconductor world's ever-shrinking circuits.
Each core on the chip can be switched off via so-called "hot plug" technology. The chip also packs dynamic voltage and frequency scaling (DVFS) for its cores, allowing them to be selectively underclocked based on workloads.

The only disappointment is that the GPU onboard the chip is not expected to get a bump [
], instead using the
same old Mali-400 MP4 intellectual property core
from ARM Holdings Plc. (
). That means that Samsung is
unlikely to be able to keep pace with nemesis Apple
in GPU performance, although the Galaxy S3 aims to be very competitive with Apple's smartphone CPUs. The core does receive one minor graphical improvement in getting a 1080p hardware codec engine, capable of shooting 30 fps HD video and piping out video of HDMI 1.4.
The new Samsung chip is the same size as the first-generation dual-core
and fully compatible with its predecessor's pin-out. Hence the chip is expected to be a very easy upgrade to existing handsets, given its lower power draw.
The chip is currently in mass production with most of the early stock likely going toward the Galaxy smartphones, which sell tens of millions of units a quarter globally.
The chip will be planted in the Galaxy S3, which launches in just over a week

Hankil Yoon, Senior Vice President of Product Strategy Team, Samsung's Mobile Communications Business kills any suspense about whether the chip will wind up in the Galaxy S3, candidly sharing, "The application processor is a crucial element in providing our customers with a PC-like experience on mobile devices. Samsung's next Galaxy device, which will be officially announced soon, offers uncompromised performance and ground breaking multi-tasking features, thanks to Exynos 4 Quad's powerful performance and efficient energy management technology."

Prysm installation at American Eagle Outfitters
Retail shop, American Eagle Outfitters has chosen Prysm’s Laser Phosphor Display (LPD) videowall technology for its flagship shop in Manhattan’s SoHo district. Multiple, seven-foot tall videowall displays are arranged around the 24,000 square-foot shop.
At the core of the Prysm LPD display solution is a 25” diagonal building block. Solid-state lasers deliver an image that is viewable from nearly a 180° angle, while using up to 75% less power than traditional backlit or projection technology-based products.
In the store, there are three columns in the main entrance working as both window displays and in-store branding. And, four columns are presented at the escalator gateways, guiding customers to each level of the shop.
Amit Jain, CEO of Prysm, said: “With increased competition and changing customer behaviour, retailers today are adapting and evolving their brands to stand out above the crowd. Prysm’s 25” panels are designed to be completely bezel-less, with a seam gap of just 0.2mm.”
Dana Corey, vice president of sales at Prysm, said: “American Eagle Outfitters marks our first retail installation, so serving them is an important milestone for the company as we ramp up our business.”

Toronto, Ontario, Jan. 15, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — According to a report released today by Sotheby’s International Realty Canada (sothebysrealty.ca), Canada’s two largest top-tier metropolitan real estate markets rallied in 2019, gaining steady traction throughout the year. After a tentative start to 2019, the Greater Toronto Area (GTA) led the country in top-tier real estate performance with consistent and confident increases in sales activity and pricing, bolstered by the region’s strong population gains, healthy economic growth and robust labour market. Vancouver overcame several years of uncertainty fostered by ongoing government and regulatory interventions to see revitalized confidence and activity in the $1 million-plus real estate market by the last half of 2019. Montreal’s luxury real estate market achieved notable milestones in its condominium sector in 2019, as the city set new records in top-tier market performance. Despite improvements in the market for real estate under $500,000, Calgary’s uneven economic performance and political turbulence dampened a top-tier market already burdened with supply; as a result, recovery continued to lag.
The Greater Toronto Area’s (Durham, Halton, Peel, Toronto and York) top-tier real estate market thrived in 2019. In contrast to the market contraction experienced in 2018 following the implementation of tighter mortgage lending policies shortly after the 2017 introduction of the Ontario Fair Housing plan, residential real estate sales over $1 million (condominiums, attached and single family homes) increased 23% year-over-year. The City of Toronto continued to see $1 million-plus activity escalate in 2019, with sales over $1 million increasing 20%. The migration of luxury real estate sales away from Multiple Listings Service (MLS) to exclusive sales and marketing platforms offering consumer privacy continued to skew sales data. As a result, GTA and City of Toronto sales over $4 million on MLS reflected a 3% decline and subtle 5% increase in spite of healthy activity through 2019.
Following several years of lackluster performance, the City of Vancouver’s top-tier real estate market recovered in the latter half of 2019. Activity resumed as prospective buyers and sellers returned from the sidelines to engage in the market with a willingness to calibrate prices to match current conditions. Overall $1 million-plus residential real estate sales in Vancouver were down 6% in 2019 from 2018 levels, while sales over $4 million declined 25%. However, activity in the last half of 2019 reflected a strengthening top-tier market as sales over $1 million increased 37% year-over-year, led by notable gains in the city’s single family and attached home segments. With prices moderating, top-tier real estate consumers reassessed single family homes with increasing favour relative to condominium and attached home options, driving new activity. As a result, $1 million-plus single family home sales, which had fallen 16%, 20% and 35% from 2015 – 2016, 2016 – 2017 and 2017 – 2018 respectively, increased 5% from 2018 to 2019. Market recovery was most evident in the latter half of 2019, when sales over $1 million rose 39% from the same period in 2018, while $4 million-plus luxury sales contracted a mild 12%.
Strong economic fundamentals and consumer confidence, as well as record-setting provincial population gains, fostered healthy demand for top-tier real estate in the City of Montreal. Residential sales over $1 million saw a 13% increase from 2018 levels, while $4 million-plus luxury sales soared 64% year-over-year. In 2019, Montreal’s luxury condominium market surpassed previous year’s records as the construction and completion of high-end high-rises reshaped the skyline. For the first time in the city’s history, top-tier condominiums comprised over 20% of residential real estate sales volume over $1 million. As the city continued to raise its profile as a major Canadian luxury condominium market, sales of condominiums over $1 million set a new record with a 39% year-over-year gain.
The City of Calgary’s top-tier market faltered with building economic and political anxiety leading up to and following the provincial and federal elections. Residential real estate sales over $1 million decreased 13% from 2018 levels overall; however, sales in the latter half of the year reflected a milder 2% decline from the same period in 2018.
“Canada’s top-tier real estate market resurged in 2019 as the country’s two largest metropolitan areas overcame several years of uncertainty to demonstrate consistent and continuous gains. As Canada’s economic and population epicentre, Toronto held its place as the nation’s leading top-tier market with bold gains across all housing types,” says Don Kottick, President and CEO of Sotheby’s International Realty Canada. “Vancouver’s long-awaited market recovery emerged in the last half of 2019 with steady progress in the city’s top-tier single family and attached home markets.”
According to Kottick, Montreal continued to assert itself as a key Canadian luxury real estate destination in 2019, most notably with the record-setting expansion of its high-end condominium market. Meanwhile, Calgary’s top-tier market recovery remained elusive in 2019.
Record-setting population gains in Canada’s largest urban areas were pivotal drivers of the conventional and top-tier housing markets, absorbing inventory and expanding the long-term foundation for local housing demand. Furthermore, the decade-long financial bull market and its bouts of recent unpredictability are growing influences on the Canadian top-tier real estate market. Underlying consumer anxiety regarding future financial market performance has increased demand for top-tier real estate as an asset to diversify portfolios, hedge against inflation, and buffer against risk.
The City of Vancouver’s top-tier real estate market began to find its footing in the latter half of 2019, reflecting clear signs that it was on the path to recovery. As prices adjusted downward to reflect more balanced market conditions, buyers and investors returned tentatively in the first half of the year, and more steadily in the latter half of 2019. Overall, $1 million-plus real estate sales in Vancouver (condominiums, attached and single family homes) decreased 6% to 2,967 units sold in 2019, while luxury sales over $4 million were down 25% to 147 properties sold.
However, sales activity in the last half of 2019 reflected a strengthening top-tier market. Sotheby’s International Realty Canada noted that the market for real estate over $1 million was uncharacteristically active over the summer months, bucking the trend for a seasonal slowdown. This was followed by a significant upswing in top-tier market activity in the fall. Overall $1 million-plus sales between July 1– December 31, 2019 were up 37% year-over-year from the last half of 2018 to 3,151 properties sold. During this time, $1–2 million sales rose 44% year-over-year and $2–4 million sales increased 32%. Luxury real estate activity over $4 million placed a drag on overall top-tier market performance, remaining 12% below sales in the last half of 2018. This cooldown in the ultra-luxury market is attributable to several factors related to the introduction of multiple taxes and policies aimed at limiting international investment and unoccupied dwellings, which have calmed demand from pure investors and second-home buyers, redirecting some of that interest to markets such as Montreal and Toronto.
Recovery in the $1 million-plus segment was led by the city’s renewing single family home market, which saw 2019 sales come into balance with a 5% year-over-year incline from 2018 levels to 1,586 homes sold. The luxury $4 million-plus segment experienced a year-over-year decline of 15% to 129 homes sold. Single family home sales over $1 million in the last half of 2019 rose a more robust 39% from the last of 2018, reflecting a market in steady recovery.
Tight supply, as well as a shift in consumer interest to the rebalancing single family home market, resulted in a slight decline in $1 million-plus attached home sales by 2% year-over-year to 549 homes sold in 2019. In spite of inventory constraints, strengthening consumer confidence and underlying need translated into surging sales in the latter half of 2019, as the volume of attached homes sold over $1 million rose 62% from 2018 levels.
The renewal of the city’s top-tier condo market lagged behind that of the single family and attached home markets, but showed signs of rebalancing in the latter half of the year. Overall, 832 condos over $1 million sold in 2019, a 25% annual decrease, while luxury sales over $4 million declined a more significant 59% to 16 units sold. In contrast, condominium sales over $1 million between July 1 – December 31, 2019 increased 21% from the same period in 2018.
With the clear improvement in market activity that was seen between the first and second half of the year, it is expected that Vancouver’s top-tier real estate market will continue its positive trajectory as consumers continue to return to the market and as sellers price homes to current conditions. This, combined with a strong economy propelling in-migration and immigration to a city ranked sixth in the Economist Intelligence Unit’s Global Livability Index in 2019, positions Vancouver to see strengthening demand for top-tier real estate in the first quarter of 2020.
Following a fragile market in 2018, the prospect for recovery in the City of Calgary’s $1 million-plus real estate market was tenuous in 2019. A challenging market prevailed as weakness in the energy and agriculture sectors permeated the local economy. As Alberta’s growth forecast slowed, Calgary’s real GDP contracted 0.4% and the unemployment rate hit 6.9%, well above the national rate. Economic and political anxiety built up in the months leading up to a contentious federal election in October 2019 and remained elevated in the months that followed. Consumer confidence also faltered following the end-of-year release of a provincial budget that aims to reduce expenditures by $1.3 billion from the previous year’s spending levels.
In spite of these compounding challenges, Calgary’s overall real estate sales activity experienced an uptick in the fall, driven largely by improvements in the market for housing under $500,000. However, the city remained oversupplied with top-tier inventory. As a result, recovery in Calgary’s top-tier real estate market remained elusive in 2019 as activity and housing prices trended downward throughout the year. Residential real estate sales over $1 million (condominiums, attached and single family homes) decreased 13% to 531 units sold in 2019. As in 2018, two homes were sold over $4 million on Multiple Listing Service (MLS) in 2019, reflecting soft demand in the city’s ultra-luxury market. However, Sotheby’s International Realty Canada’s sale of a prestigious estate in December 2019 at a price that was the highest for a detached home in Calgary since January 2015 reflected the persistence of demand for the city’s premier real estate, so long as strategic pricing, targeted marketing and comprehensive exposure aligned.
Single family home sales comprised the vast majority of $1 million-plus residential sales volume in Calgary in 2019, at 90%. However, consumer demand within this market-dominant segment continued to waver. $1 million-plus single family home sales saw a 12% decrease in activity with 477 homes sold in 2019. Following an uptick in $1 million-plus condominium sales activity in 2018, Calgary’s top-tier condominium market waned in 2019. Sales over $1 million experienced a 45% year-over-year decline to 16 units sold as the market remained heavily favourable to prospective buyers and investors. Sales of attached homes over $1 million also declined 12%, with 38 homes sold in 2019.
Despite this annual decline, overall residential real estate sales over $1 million stabilized in the latter half of 2019, dipping 2% from the same period in 2018 to 256 properties sold.
Little relief is expected for Calgary’s top-tier market leading into 2020 given persistently weak oil prices, inconsistent consumer confidence and incremental projected GDP gains. With a challenging environment anticipated well into 2020, comprehensive local and international marketing programs, as well as non-traditional sales models such as the use of exclusive auction partners, will remain imperative to selling luxury homes in the region.
Greater Toronto Area
In spite of an extended winter that slowed the start of the spring real estate cycle, consumer confidence and activity in the Greater Toronto Area’s (Durham, Halton, Peel, Toronto and York) top-tier real estate market flourished in 2019, buoyed by strong population gains, healthy economic performance and a robust labour market. Demand for premier real estate was strong relative to available listings, creating tighter market conditions and sparking multiple offer scenarios. Overall, active sellers’ market conditions prevailed across all top-tier housing types, particularly within the City of Toronto.
In contrast to the market contraction experienced in 2018 following the introduction of tighter mortgage lending policies on the heels of the 2017 unveiling of the Ontario Fair Housing Plan, the Greater Toronto Area’s $1 million-plus residential real estate market (condominiums, attached and single family homes) experienced a 23% year-over-year increase in sales activity with 17,532 homes sold in 2019. As property owners sought privacy from new transaction transparency, luxury sales continued to migrate away from Multiple Listings Service (MLS) towards exclusive sales and marketing platforms. As a result, annual sales over $4 million tracked on MLS reflected a 3% decline to 228 properties sold. Top-tier real estate sales within the City of Toronto continued to see activity escalate in 2019. Between January 1– December 31, 2019, 7,877 $1 million-plus properties sold, a 20% increase from 2018, while $4 million-plus luxury real estate sales on MLS increased 5% year-over-year to 178 units sold.
While $1 million-plus sales activity revitalized by mid-2019, real estate consumer and industry confidence continued to build momentum through the last half of the year. From July 1–December 31, 2019, the GTA’s $1 million-plus real estate market saw a 36% year-over-year increase in sales with 8,920 properties sold, while luxury real estate sales over $4 million were up 17% to 125 units sold. Sales in the last half of 2019 in the City of Toronto mirrored this positive trajectory. Between July 1–December 31, 2019, sales over $1 million increased a healthy 28% year-over-year to 3,885 properties sold while sales over $4 million increased 14% to 89 units sold.
In the GTA, top-tier condominium sales for 2019 reflected a healthy and strengthening market. While sales over $1 million in 2018 had contracted a mild 3% from 2017 levels due largely to muted performance in the first quarter, the GTA $1 million-plus condominium market saw a 16% annual increase in sales activity to 1,464 units sold in 2019. However, $4 million-plus condo sales on MLS were down 41% year-over-year from 17 units sold in 2018 to 10 units in 2019, due partly to the shift in ultra-luxury real estate sales to exclusive channels. The City of Toronto’s $1 million-plus condominium market also resurged in 2019 with a 16% year-over-year increase in sales activity to 1,313 units sold in 2019.
Top-tier attached homes remained one of the GTA’s most coveted housing types in 2019, as a diverse cross-section of buyers competed for limited inventory. While GTA attached home sales over $1 million had increased 36% in the last half of 2019 compared to the same months in 2018, the region’s $1 million-plus attached home market saw a 29% increase year-over-year to 1,958 homes sold in 2019. Thriving demand resulted in brisk sales and a notable 52% of $1 million-plus attached homes selling above list price in the last half of the year. Luxury $4 million-plus attached home sales remained on par with 2018 levels at six homes sold in both years. The City of Toronto’s $1 million-plus attached home market experienced an impactful 31% increase in year-over-year sales volume with 1,707 homes sold in 2019, while sales of $4 million-plus attached luxury homes remained on par with 2018 levels at six units sold.
The GTA top-tier single family home market gained steady traction in 2019. While sales over $1 million in the latter half of 2018 had reflected a nominal 2% year-over-year gain from the last half of 2017, the GTA’s $1 million-plus single family home market saw a 23% increase year-over-year to 14,110 units in 2019. Luxury single family home sales over $4 million saw a negligible change in sales volume from 211 sold in 2018 to 212 sold in 2019. The City of Toronto’s $1 million-plus single family home market experienced an 18% year-over-year gain in annual sales activity with 4,857 homes sold in 2019, while luxury sales over $4 million on MLS increased 11% to 162 homes sold.
According to the Conference Board of Canada, Toronto is projected to follow its 2% increase in GDP in 2019 with a 2.2% growth rate in 2020. Furthermore, population gains are expected to place unrelenting pressure on conventional and top-tier housing demand as Ontario recorded one of its highest population growth rates in 30 years in 2018/2019 with Toronto acting as a key gateway for newcomers drawn to a city ranked seventh in the Economist Intelligence Unit’s Global Liveability Index in 2019.
These underlying influences, coupled with continued international and local investor interest, are expected to propel the GTA’s top-tier real estate market to new levels of activity and pricing into the first quarter of 2020.
The City of Montreal’s top-tier real estate market achieved new records in 2019, as the city saw strong increases in sales volume and pricing while inventory levels remained limited in premier neighbourhoods. Exceptional sales gains were experienced in the luxury $4 million-plus segment of the real estate market, while the top-tier condominium market saw a record-setting 2019. Overall, sales of $1 million-plus real estate (condominiums, attached and single family homes) increased 13% to 995 units sold in 2019, as the city continued to attract new attention as a global luxury real estate destination.
Montreal’s luxury new and resale condominium market soared in 2019 as end-user and investor demand for high-end, high-density housing market strengthened, and as the city’s skyline evolved with the addition of new development. For the first time in its history, condominiums comprised over 20% of residential real estate sales over $1 million in the city. Overall, Montreal’s top-tier $1 million-plus condominium market saw a 39% increase year-over-year with 219 units in 2019. Luxury $4 million-plus condominium sales increased from one unit sold in 2018, to two units sold in 2019.
Following several consecutive years of sales gains which saw single family home sales over $1 million increase 21% from 2016 to 2017 and another 8% from 2017 to 2018, the top-tier $1 million-plus single family home market in Montreal moderated with a modest 3% decrease to 423 homes sold in 2019. However, significant gains were experienced in the luxury $4 million-plus market, which saw sales increase 60% year-over-year to 16 home sales compared to 10 homes in 2018. Montreal’s top-tier attached home market also experienced an uptick in sales activity in 2019, with sales of homes over $1 million experiencing a 22% increase to 353 homes sold in 2019.
Strengthening economic fundamentals and unprecedented population gains are fueling Montreal’s real estate boom. The Conference Board of Canada confirmed that Montreal led the nation’s major metropolitan areas in economic growth in 2019 at a rate of 3%, due to strong performance across key industries including manufacturing, finance, insurance and real estate. Between 2018 and 2019, Quebec also experienced its largest population increase in three decades.
These factors translated into a growing consumer base with a positive inclination for Montreal’s top-tier real estate in 2019 and will continue to underpin healthy market performance into the first quarter of 2020.

The lights are on at After Dark Distillery and product is ready to roll out.
Sicamous’ first micro distillery, located at the corner of Main Street and Shuswap Avenue, opened its doors on March 25. A grand opening is scheduled for this Saturday, April 15. Local band Seal Skull Hammer will be performing, and everyone (of legal drinking age) is welcome to take a tour and try out the business’ alcoholic offerings. They currently specialize in vodka and a variety of flavoured moonshines including Mountain Dew, maple, peach, iced tea, lemonade and apple pie.
Asked if he has a favourite, After Dark owner and master distiller Dean Perry said he likes them all.
“I created them to my taste… And everybody seems to agree with it,” laughs Perry.
Transforming the former bowling alley and retail space into a fully-operational distillery has been about a year-long process. The building includes a warehouse in the back, the distillery in the middle and a storefront that includes product displays and a tasting area.
“We looked all over and this seemed to be the right location…,” said Perry, explaining what brought him from Grand Prairie, Alta. to Sicamous to set up shop. “There was this vacant building here right on Main Street that suited what we wanted to do so we approached the people who had it and they sold it to us and we moved forward.”
Classified as a “craft distillery,” After Dark is allowed to produce up to 50,000 litres of spirit per year. They are required to use 100 per cent B.C. agricultural products in the production of alcohol and fermentation must be completed onsite.
Perry said 20,000 litres would be a good start for After Dark’s first year. As for ingredients, he said his products are corn-based and sourced locally.
“We buy from farmers and local grain places within 100 miles of this area,” said Perry. “We support the community.
“We’re having old-style whiskey jugs being created for us out of Enderby. They’ll be just straight moonshine in those.”
After Dark Distillery’s offerings are currently only available at the storefront, but will be available elsewhere in the Shuswap soon.
“We are proceeding with building lots of quantity of each product and we will be going out in probably about another month or so and doing sales,” said Perry. “We’re going to go through Northern B.C. and sell all up there. And also locally, everybody is already after me locally for the product for the bars and stores.”
Despite having just opened, Perry is already looking to expand the current facility by adding another 2,600 square feet for warehouse/bottling space.
After Dark Distillery is open from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., Monday to Saturday and noon to 5 p.m. on Sundays.

Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company is one of the world’s largest tire manufacturers and is currently developing a new system that will help tires inflate themselves in the event of low tire pressure. The system is called Air Maintenance Technology or AMT and is completely self-contained, meaning there is no need for any external equipment.
“While the technology is complex, the idea behind the AMT system is relatively simple and powered by the tire itself as it rolls down the road,” said Jean-Claude Kihn, Goodyear senior vice president and chief technical officer.
This technology is to help drivers make sure that their tires are inflated properly because improperly inflated tires can pose a threat primarily to safety, performance and fuel economy.
“A tire that can maintain its own inflation is something drivers have wanted for many years. Goodyear has taken on this challenge and the progress we have made is very encouraging,” said Kihn. “This will become the kind of technological breakthrough that people will wonder how they ever lived without.”
Goodyear didn’t announce when the AMT system and its technology would start finding their way into vehicles as they are still deep in the research and development stages. But to make sure that the program is well funded, the US Department of Energy’s Office of Vehicle Technology announced that they will provide a $1.5 million research grant to Goodyear.
“While similar in concept, there are significant differences in AMT systems for consumer and commercial tires,” said Kihn. “The tangible support from both the U.S. and Luxembourg governments underscores the value of these projects and the many positive benefits they can provide drivers around the world.”

Most of Western New York’s food trucks are launching culinary careers, but at Elma’s Blue Lantern Lounge, adding a food truck is just the best way to expand the business.
Owners Tom and Donna Pease expect to debut their Da Blue truck at Buffalo’s Larkin Square at lunchtime, Jan. 31, a Friday.
“Expanding our footprint at our current location just wasn’t an option due to the constraints the property presented. A second location sounded good on paper but unfortunately, we couldn’t be in two places at one time,” said Tom Pease. “The need to be hands on and available to the customer led us to the decision to go mobile.”
The initial truck menu will range from cole slaw ($3) to a lobster cake sandwich ($10). It’ll include dishes the restaurant celebrates, including hand-dipped chicken strips ($6) and an Ellicottville Brewing Co. lager bratwurst with caramelized onion relish on a pretzel roll ($9).

TOKYO, May 15 (Reuters) - Smartphone screen maker Japan Display Inc, a supplier to Apple Inc, reported on Tuesday its biggest annual net loss, highlighting its struggle to regain competitiveness against Asian rivals.
Japan Display said it lost a net 247.2 billion yen ($2.25 billion) in the year through March compared with a 31.7 billion yen loss a year earlier. That was slightly worse than the market’s average forecast for a 222 billion yen loss, according to Thomson Reuters data.
It was its fourth straight year of losses, as growing competition from Chinese rivals aggravated the impact of slower demand from smartphone makers. ($1 = 109.8600 yen) (Reporting by Ritsuko Ando; Editing by Muralikumar Anantharaman)

Will Battery Costs Bring Down EV Resale Values?
Could an electric vehicle purchase be a money loser from the start? New questions and proposals surrounding the viability of electric car batteries will attempt to move EVs from depreciation disasters to masters of profitability.
Experts have predicted that electric vehicles' value on the used car market will suffer because of the prohibitive cost of replacing the car's battery, according to British magazine Autocar. The cost of replacing the battery at the end of its life, as estimated by Glass's Guide -- a U.K.-market used car valuing service -- may reach as high as $12,000.
However, OEMs and battery suppliers are working together to devise a battery leasing option, as opposed to a one-time purchase.
"If cars and batteries are sold rather than leased, and no special warranty cover is in place, the typical EV will retain only 10 [percent] of its value after five years," Glass's managing director Andy Carroll said.
By this logic, an swap-out, interchangeable battery could make the electric vehicle a secondhand success.
Stay with Automobilemag.com for updates on electric vehicle powertrain options as we get closer to the launch date of new electric-only models.

LG G4 Will Come With UX 4.0 Software
LG has said that its latest iteration of UX software will provide more simplicity to the users and it will be smarter than its previous versions. The UX 4.0 features more configuration options, especially allowing professionals to set them according to their needs.
The UX 4.0 will be based on the latest version of Android 5.0 Lollipop and will have interesting features. One of the features is “Quick shot” which allows users to take photos instantly by tapping the volume button found on the back of LG phones twice, even when the screen is turned off. This feature is useful in capturing the moments that may be missed during the time screen and camera is turned on.
The camera will have three modes in UX 4.0. These modes, namely Professional, Regular, and Simple, can be set by the user according to their needs. LG is claiming that users can get DSLR-like photos if they set the configurations properly.
The apps can also be collected in widget form so that they can be viewed all at once. LG says the new iteration of its software has fewer menus and simplified icons.
The calendar is also made compatible with user’s social networks. So the schedules set on social networks can be imported into the calendar to be viewed. The photo gallery has been made smarter as it is now able to group pictures together depending on where and when they were taken.
The company has also said that LG G4 will be the first device to come with UX 4.0. The latest software update will be pushed to other LG smartphones after the release of LG G4.

Kansas Attorney General Derek Schmidt issued a legal opinion on September 30, stating Governor Laura Kelly’s unilateral expansion of remote sales tax jurisdiction exceeds her authority. The next day, the Kelly administration went ahead anyway, and now the AG says her action is exposing the state to litigation.
“If the Department of Revenue attempts to enforce its policy against a retailer, who under Wayfair is not subject to a Kansas duty to collect and remit, it is possible that private entity would have a cause of action,” said C.J. Grover, the public information officer for the Kansas Attorney General’s Office. “We continue to recommend the administration not proceed with implementing the policy reflected in its notice in order to avoid unnecessary risk of litigation for the state.”
More than 3,200 out-of-state retailers have registered to begin collecting and remitting sales taxes to the state of Kansas since the U.S. Supreme Court issued a ruling allowing states to charge sales taxes to businesses without a physical presence in a state, like internet sellers. But that ruling – called the Wayfair decision – said the obligation to collect and remit should only apply to retailers above minimum sales thresholds that will vary by state. The Kelly administration is attempting to obligate all retailers regardless of sales level.
According to Zach Fletcher, public information officer for the Kansas Department of Revenue, almost 600 of the new registrants applied to remit remote sales tax to Kansas after Gov. Laura Kelly’s administration issued a directive requiring they do so.
Kelly’s directive to out-of-state retailers created something of a standoff between her administration and the Kansas Attorney General Derek Schmidt’s office. The Republican AG issued a legal opinion warning that Kelly’s sales tax directive exceeds the executive’s authority, noting that the administration issued its directive only after lawmakers and the Governor failed to reach an agreement on internet sales tax legislation.
Last legislative session, state lawmakers twice passed legislation that would have imposed collection and remittance responsibilities on remote sellers. The legislation sought to use the new revenue to offset a reduction in food sales taxes. Kelly vetoed both bills because the legislation also sought to eliminate a state income tax increase created by changes in the federal tax code.
Speaker of the House Ron Ryckman called the Kelly tax memo an unlawful tax mandate, and state Sen. Susan Wagle, both Republicans, warned that Kelly’s executive remote sales tax increase could open the state up to litigation.
Kansas is one of 24 states that belong to a streamlined sales tax compact. The compact allows sellers to register with it rather than applying to those individual different states as retailers. There are more than 10,800 sales tax jurisdictions in the U.S., according to the Tax Foundation. Kansas has 521 sales tax jurisdictions. The compact helps retailers charge and remit appropriate sales taxes. More than 30 states have passed laws or regulations for remote sellers to remit sales taxes, and Fletcher says it’s difficult to know whether new out-of-state applicants registered in order to comply with the Kelly memo, the Wayfair decision or whether they registered as part of registering with the streamline compact. Either way, the administration contends remote sellers with Kansas transactions, no matter the dollar amount or number, should be collecting sales taxes to remit to Kansas as of Oct. 1.
“People need to be registering and collecting and remitting,” Fletcher said.

In a study that came out this week, researchers noted the difference in time spent making a purchase by mobile devices compared to by desktops.
It turns out that the mobile purchase processes took about half the time.
The study, by IBM’s Digital Analytics Benchmark, looked at shopping behavior around Mother’s Day. As you might expect, mobile shopping traffic increased 43% from a year ago, comprising a quarter of the holiday online sales.
What struck me was the difference in time spent based on device. Desktop users took more than six minutes per purchase while mobile consumers shopped and bought in three-and-a-half minutes.
I have to wonder if this is because retailers are getting better at packaging and selling through mobile devices or if consumers are getting savvier about how to do it. Likely, it’s a bit of both.
The average order size over the holiday was around $200, so it does matter to retailers how they approach mobile selling. To further the point, mobile accounted for almost half of online jewelry sales, as one indicator that mobile shoppers are parting with more than nickels and dimes.
Consumers and retailers have been in a chicken-and-egg situation for a while, with many consumers pushing the envelope ahead of retailers, some of whom are playing catch-up.
But back to the issue of speed of mobile buying. It’s a bit difficult to know how much product research was done before the actual shop and purchase, since mobile consumers are really shopping all the time. Mobile shopping behavior can be in bite-sized moments and just seconds at a time.
We know from other studies that consumers do, in fact, research intended purchases on mobile devices, and this study provides a bit of evidence that some relatively quick actions, if not decisions, are made during the mobile purchasing process.
This piece of research shows that marketers have very little time to influence the mobile purchase decision near the actual buying time. Certainly fewer than three-and-a-half minutes.

On Nov. 2, 2009, the 1st Circuit Court of Appeals in Boston heard Tracy Genesen, legal director for the Coalition for Free Trade, present the winery side of the argument in the FWC v. Jenkins lawsuit being appealed by the state. Massachusetts wine consumers were previously the winners in a Nov. 19, 2008 court ruling on FWC v. Jenkins that allowed wineries of all production sizes to ship directly to adult residents in Massachusetts. The decision enjoined the state from enforcing its law that prohibits wineries producing more than 30,000 gallons from shipping if they have wholesaler agreements. Click here to read the text of the 2008 ruling.
Genesen outlined the wine industry’s position in opposition to production capacity caps and the wholesaler exclusion rules in the existing direct-to-consumer wine shipping statutes that are being challenged. The court extended her portion of the argument to allow for a more in-depth exploration of the issues. The industry is waiting for the court’s ruling, which is likely to be delivered in the next three to six months.

Unveiled only last week as a part of Jordan’s Holiday 2023 lineup and now ready to hit the shelves, the classic ‘Aqua‘ colourway officially returns, this time gracing the Air Jordan 6 for the first time in Jordan history.
Directly referencing the coveted AJ8 from ’93, this iteration is a real mouth waterer. What stands out the most to us is the energetic pops of Aqua and Bright Concord pulse against a primarily Black nubuck base.
Drenched in throwback styles and arriving this weekend, the Air Jordan 6 ‘Aqua’ is ladened with dynamic design lines and those iconic lace locks.
The Air Jordan 6 ‘Aqua’ is priced at £189.99 and launches from BSTN & Nike SNKRS this Saturday, 7 October at 8:00am – there’s still plenty of time to enter the raffle at BSTN for the chance to secure a pair of the latest AJ6 trainers.

For designers, branching out into fragrance is a way to expand their brands and to heighten consumers' awareness of them. "Fragrance is a form of brand extension that is really complementary to designers," said Milton Pedraza, chief executive officer of the Luxury Institute, based in New York. "Names like Thierry Mugler, Cartier and Boucheron — when people see these names, they instantly ascribe higher value to them. It's yet more proof that luxury branding is something very special." Luxury also is targeting youthful consumers. WWD reported last week that an increasing number of fragrance brands, such as Thierry Mugler Parfums and Boucheron Parfums, has the younger sect on its radar. In the institute's Luxury Brand Status Index survey, the following fragrances ranked highest in luxury consumer awareness.
VERA WANG THE FRAGRANCE Respondents who said they were aware of this fragrance: 36 percent Vera Wang's first fragrance was launched five years ago to rave reviews. As a result, the designer has continued to expand this arm of her brand. Initially known in the fashion industry as an expert in bridal, Wang felt this signature fragrance could lend even more emotion and importance to a wedding day. She is quoted on nordstrom.com as saying, "Fragrance provokes the senses and conjures up memories in inexplicable ways. Incredibly intimate yet nearly imperceptible, a bride's fragrance remains with her long after the ceremony is over."
JOY BY JEAN PATOU PARFUM DELUXE 35 percent It's one of the best-known fragrances in the world, and the longevity of the brand is proof that it's sure to stick around. French designer Jean Patou launched Joy in 1930. Patou created the fragrance as a gift to his American customers after the stock market crash in 1929. The fragrance, unchanged since 1930, is a mixture of jasmine flowers and roses. The bottle was inspired by the principles of Divine Proportion — a mathematical formula that reflects perfect proportions in architecture.
PURE TURQUOISE BY RALPH LAUREN 34 percent Ralph Lauren Pure Turquoise was launched in September 2005 in 926 department store doors, according to WWD. The $350 fragrance features one-of-a-kind turquoise bottle tops. Heather Simmons, vice president of global marketing for Ralph Lauren Fragrances, told WWD that the stone "really ties into the heritage of Ralph Lauren," who has used turquoise in his collections for years. She also noted that the scent was developed for "a sophisticated, elegant and chic woman" in the 20- to 45-year-old age range. Nordstrom deems the bottle and its contents to be "a true collectible."

Depending on how old you are, you’re probably either in the camp that drained dozens of batteries playing one of Tiger Electronics’ low-fi handheld LCD games back in the 1990s…or you were the grouch who was telling some kid to turn that infernal beep machine off.
Being firmly in the first camp regardless of age, we can’t help but be stoked at the news that Hasbro is rebooting the old-school machines for a new generation (and, if we’re being honest, probably to trigger the nostalgia of fans exactly like us). Via The Verge, Hasbro is reviving the Tiger Electronics LCD handheld, the attention-occupying little gaming machine that could for many a kid whose parents wouldn’t spring for the pricier Nintendo Game Boy.
For Tiger’s 2020 comeback, Hasbro is reportedly kicking things off with a handful of 1990s originals, including The Little Mermaid, Transformers: Generation 2, X-Men Project X, and Sonic the Hedgehog 3. Via The Verge’s report, it sounds like the games themselves may have undergone a little massaging during their two-decade-plus dormancy, as Hasbro reportedly says they’re “inspired” by their wayback predecessors. But the controls, monochromatic screen, and battery-powered retro goodness are all still built-in.
At a price of $14.99 each, we can already hear the sound of our nostalgic impulses vacuuming those dollars right out of our pockets. Hasbro reportedly says the revived Tiger Electronics consoles will be available this fall, but they’re already up for preorder at GameStop — batteries not included.

The crew filming Star Wars Episode VII will be arriving in Iceland this April, reportsVísir.
According to Vísir’s sources, members of the film’s production crew have been in Iceland scouting locations like Langjökull glacier for the film and Icelandic production company Truenorth may assist the crew once they arrive in April.
Although nothing is confirmed officially, Vísir’s sources claim that it is possible the shots filmed in Iceland will be used as background for scenes filmed in a studio later.
The new Star Wars trilogy will pick up approximately 30 years after ‘Return of The Jedi’ dropped off and centre around three young leading characters alongside characters from the previous instalments.

A friend and I recently got into an argument about whether or not we should reduce tariffs, as happened a few months back with South Korea. My logic was, “Sure, free trade benefits everybody, and the more investments and markets a foreign nation has over here, the less likely they are to encourage people to bombs us.” His logic was, “No. Because America is better than other countries.”
This exchange, plus the realization that I haven’t drawn robots in nearly a month, prompts a quick lesson on free trade vs. protectionism.
The argument for free trade is that with fewer barriers and tariffs between two or more nations, each will focus its resources on what it’s best at making. This is an efficient system because the law of supply and demand ensures that if the supply goes up, the product will cost less to produce and buy. Prices will go down for consumers.
Meanwhile the countries involved in trade grow warm and cuddly because their businessmen are flying back and forth having affairs and such. Savvy businessmen rarely bomb countries where their mistresses live. Noting that businessmen are also twice as likely to drop $10,000 into a Super PAC than the other people at the grocery store, it’s a safe bet that countries which trade a lot will feel less inclined to bomb the hell out of each other.
So, hypothetically, let’s say America is really good at building scud missiles and terrible at building robots, but Japan excels at robot construction and is awful at making decent scud missiles. Without tariffs, America might construct 100 scud missiles for every robot it hobbles together, while Japan cranks out 40 robots for every scud missile. That’s a whole lot of scud missiles and robots!
But what if our domestic manufacturers realize they cannot hope to compete with flashy Japanese robot companies? What if Japan makes their robots cheaper because they contract out the easy stuff (like metallic claws and eye lasers) to China, which effectively employs slave labor? We can’t do that with Mexico because half of Mexico is a narco-state right now, and drug traffickers are surprisingly bad at supervising sweat shops.
Our domestic robot producers will then approach the government and ask for a “tariff,” which will impose a tax on all imported robots. A 30% robot tariff would suddenly make the $100 Japanese model cost $130, and so the hitherto expensive $120 American robot would become comparatively cheaper through market manipulation.
If our robot factory owners are successful in implementing a tariff, four things will result:
1. The American robot manufacturers will make a lot more money.
2. Japan will sell fewer robots, which will piss off the Japanese, particularly their robot manufacturers. Because their country is not that much smarter than ours is, they will probably respond by raising a scud missile tariff to protect their own domestic industries and to punish us.
3. With less scud missile demand from abroad, some of our own manufacturers will fold up, while several Japanese robot manufacturers will lose profits and kill themselves. The result will be inefficiency in both countries: now America will make 80 scud missiles for every robot, while Japan will slap together only 30 robots for every scud missile it makes.
4. Because of the way supply and demand works, prices for both robots and scud missiles will rise. Consumers in both nations will make up the difference. If you were saving up the change in your jam jar to buy a decent scud missile for your boyfriend– too bad! You’ll have to wait at least another year or so before you hoard enough quarters.
So consumers do not win from this process. Some parties in industry will come out better (American Mom-and-Pop robot factories and Japanese wholesale scud missile makers will become competitive again) while others will suffer (decent American scud missile suppliers and honest, down-to-earth Japanese robot assemblers). Consumers in both countries lose, because prices for both products will rise.
The only consistent winner here is military suppliers, whose handsome government contracts enable them to gobble up high quality American scud missiles and hard-working Japanese robots as soon as they come off the line. If somebody over at Brookings says, “Only a robot armed with scud missiles could possibly stop Nuclear Iran from becoming a reality!” you know a bunch of military contractors will be wetting their pants with excitement.
If the tariffs keep adding up and Japan and America can’t think of another way to distract their citizenry, they might enter a protracted “trade war.” If this happens, our business folks might quit visiting Japan for extramarital affairs and no longer be concerned with blowing it up. Same goes for the Japanese business folks and their sweaty American romps.
When that happens we’re all screwed. Because that’s when we go to war with Japan. Again.
Except this time they’ll have robots.
