What they're saying about Samsung's Galaxy Gear (English Language)

Follow my twitter : @fariszarif

(CNN) -- In rolling out its Galaxy Gear on Wednesday, Samsung effectively launched the smartwatch wars, becoming the biggest player in an emerging gadget market that could soon see Apple, Google and others join the fray.

"Today, Samsung reinvents a centuries-old product," Samsung research director Pranav Mistry said at a launch event in Berlin. "I can proudly say Galaxy Gear is a design statement, an engineering marvel and something that really redefines tomorrow."

So, no false modesty here. But, what did everyone else have to say?

Tech bloggers' first impressions of the watch, which will go on sale in late September in much of the world and in October in the United States and Japan, were predictably less grandiose than that.

Many complimented the Gear as a significant step forward in mobile technology with a host of interesting features and the potential for even more. But its $299 price tag was a concern for many, as were worries that sluggish responses on some apps will turn out to be a persistent problem, not a case of opening-day jitters.

Others complained the watch must be synced with a Galaxy phone or tablet to get the most out of its functionality.

We've rounded up some thoughts from folks who got an early look at the connected watch, which will compete against rival devices from Pebble, Sony and other makers. Keep in mind that many of them had limited time with the device and some will publish more in-depth reviews later.

The Upcoming Games To Watch (English Language)

Cologne, Germany (CNN) -- More than 340,000 gamers from across Europe converged in this quaint German city last month to get their first hands-on with Sony's PlayStation 4 and Microsoft's Xbox One consoles and to preview an assortment of new games.

The occasion was Gamescom, the massive video gaming show that attracted over 600 exhibitors from upwards of 80 countries, all of whom set up booths in 10 massive halls that featured over 1.4 million square feet of space. It was like E3 and Comic-Con, only much bigger.

Big companies like Sony, Microsoft, Ubisoft and Electronic Arts kicked off the festivities with press conferences that featured exclusive announcements, including the November 15 PS4 launch date and new games such as "The Sims 4."

Europe plays an important role in the global gaming ecosystem, thanks to the success of such European companies as Rovio Entertainment ("Angry Birds"), DICE ("Battlefield 4") and TT Games ("The LEGO Movie Game"). According to Peter Warman, founder of video-game research firm Newzoo, European consumers will contribute 23% of the $70.4 billion global video game market this year.

"The most talked-about companies over the past year are European," said Warman. "Companies like SuperCell ("Clash of Clans"), Wargaming ("World of Tanks"), Mojang ("Minecraft") and King ("Candy Crush") will bring in a combined revenue of more than $1.5 billion this year."

Next-generation gaming was a huge focus this year, but the current crop of consoles still have a lot of life left in them. And the PC, which has always been strong in Europe, remains a force as well. Here are five games that stood out from the very crowded booths of Gamescom 2013.

Kajian mengatakan pengguna telefon pintar menghabiskan masa hampir sejam di hadapan telefon mereka (Malay Language)

Kajian mengatakan pengguna Android menghabiskan masa yang kurang  berbanding pengguna IPhone

Fikir kembali 24 jam yang lalu. Berapa jam anda habiskan di depan telefon pintar anda? Adakah kebanyakan anda menghantar mesej, membaca berita, memeriksa Twitter, atau bercakap dengan manusia yang lain?

Jawapan anda mungkin berlainan jika anda seorang pengguna Android atau IPhone.

Satu kajian dari Experian mencari maklumat untuk mengetahui bagaimana seorang pengguna telefon pintar menggunakan telefon mereka dan mendapati bahawa pengguna di semua sistem menghabiskan purata 58 minit sehari pada telefon pintar mereka. Walaupun dengan semua loceng, dan wisel dan aplikasi, sebahagian besar dihabiskan untuk bercakap di telefon.

Terdapat perbezaan di antara pengguna Android dan IPhone membagi-bagikan masa mereka. Pengguna iPhone menghabiskan lebih banyak masa pada peranti mereka sehari (26 minit lebih) tetapi peratusan yang lebih kecil masa bercakap dan melayari web daripada rakan-rakan Android mereka dan lebih banyak masa menghantar mesej dan menangkap gambar.

Kajian ini tidak menyelidiki berapa minit setiap pihak menghabiskan ber"online" dan yang mana sistem yang lebih baik.

Apa sahaja sistem operasi atau telefon pintar yang digunakan adalah sebagai alat komunikasi, menurut dalam kajian. Rata-rata, orang menghabiskan 26% di telefon pintar dihabiskan untuk masa bercakap, 20% SMS dan 9% e-mel. 'Social networking' mengambil 16% daripada masa kita, manakala permainan dan "lain-lain" aktiviti masing-masing kira-kira 8% dan 9%.

Menonton video menyumbang sedikit masa pada purata, tetapi orang-orang yang menonton video biasanya lebih sedikit daripada empat kali sehari untuk sejumlah lima minit setiap hari.

Membaca juga blip, menurut kajian itu, dengan separuh peratusan daripada orang membaca pada telefon pintar mereka setiap hari.
