IS GOPO UNDER THREAT? HTC AND POLAROID REVEAL THEIR SEPARATE PERISCOPE AND CUBE CAMERAS TO SEIZE THE HANDHELD MARKET

Nowadays, the best camera in the market is the Gopro, a small camera that it can goes in the water and it's eassy to take away. But, Polaroid and HTC, they could make a camera that it could take the throne in this market. 

The Polaroin Cube, will be able for £89(114,41€) in October.  
It measures 3,8cm on all it's sides, can capture high definition video and can make images in a resolution of six megapixels. 

The device is splash proof, but if you want to submerge the camera, you have to put the waterproof casing. 
Also, it's magnetic, and it can attach in surfaces using an included clip.
In addition, it have  ntegrated a microphone and  LED light for the night. 

I think that it's going to be a big competence for de Gopro and this cameras can be more eassy to use. But, it can be more eassy to lose, because they are very small.

When te classes finished, I started to do the reserch project and I did particular lesons for prepared the second of baxillerat. That was the part that I didn't like a lot, but I had to do it.

The best part was after, in the afternoons I went to the beach, the river and the swimming pool with my friends. Also, we had fun togheter playing sports.
One of the days that I liked a lot was a day were ,my friends and I, went to fishing in the river. There we went to the river in the morning, we had lunch there and we finished in the afternoon. 
An other specila day was on September. Some of my friends and I went to did paddle surf. That was the best thing that I did in the summer. We went in the Club Nautic of Sant Pere Pescador and there we went to the river to started to did it. With the paddle we arrived in the end of the river and then we came back to the club. In the lunchtime we did a lunch in the river of the park.

4. Which activities did you not find useful to learn English? Why not? 
In my point of view, all what we do in class is useful but I think that the traduction of the songs is less useful, because is very tiresome, but yo can know what the song say.

WILL APPLE'S IPHONE 6 HAVE A LONG BATTERY LIFE? IOS 8 FEATURE COULD MAKE IT THE MOST ENERGY EFFICIENT HANDSET YET

Apple desing a new model of Iphone, that could finally Apple's battery woes. 
The news informations of the Iphone 6 will have arounded, thinner design and a larger screen. It could also feature a protruding camera, and boast new filters. 
The application makes the  power-saving changes, because now the battery of the Iphone is very bad. It also decrease the amount of power for use the phone more time.  

I think that it's going to be a big change of the tecnology, because we can use the phone all the day. But it can perjudice in the others phone companyes because all the people want to have the best phone if they can have.
