Sharkoon releases SharkZone MK80 RGB Mechanical Keyboard

347

The Sharkoon SHARK ZONE MK80 RGB has a 3-block layout which features both brilliant illumination and unmatched individuality. However, the keyboard isn’t using the Cherry MX switches like many other keyboards out in the market; it uses Kailh switches instead. The specs and features of this keyboard will also leave you impressed: N-key rollover, on-the-fly macro recording, gaming mode, up to five game profiles, onboard memory, integrated media hub with audio and USB connection possibilities plus a polling rate of 1,000 Hz. A total of eight pre-programmed lighting effects, with up to 16.8 million colors, will leave a colorful lasting impression. A comfortable palm rest supports ergonomic gaming, which is detachable.

The Kailh switches promise an average operating life cycle of at least 60 million clicks per key and it’s available with either red, brown or blue switches. However, visually the MK80 is a head turner, even without its installed software. Eight spectacular factory-made lighting effects are pre-programmed, which can be activated via a simple shortcut. Besides that, you can choose one of the effects such as multicolored wave, pulsating or permanent illumination, an explosion effect, or rhythmic illumination to match the music being played.

The software leaves nothing to be desired, which you can use to create a diverse LED illumination customization of every individual key, program your macros up to five individual game profiles, and appropriate shortcuts with the preferred interaction can be created. Thankfully, Sharkoon allows you to freely program all the key functions.

The Sharkoon SHARK ZONE MK80 RGB Brown/Red/Blue is now available for a suggested retail price of USD 155 (approx. RM 670).

The Sharp Aquos R Compact has a 4.9-inch bezel-less display

326

Sharp is probably the first ever company to make a smartphone with a bezel-less display on the front. Launched back in 2014, the Sharp Aquos Crystal lived among ordinary looking phones before more bezel-less display handsets came about this year. Now Sharp is playing catch-up with a compact sized smartphone of a similar design.

The Sharp Aquos R Compact is a tinier version of the regular Aquos R that was released earlier this year. Unlike its larger sibling, the Sharp Aquos R Compact actually sports smaller to no bezels on the sides and above the 4.9-inch Full HD+ display. The display has a camera cut out in the middle like the Essential Phone. A drawback might be the huge chin below the display which houses the home button.

Underneath the hood is a powerful mid range Snapdragon 660 processor, along with 3GB of RAM and 32GB of expandable storage. The camera department of the Sharp Aquos R Compact sounds impressive on paper as well – a 16MP hybrid AF rear shooter and an 8MP selfie camera. The phone comes packed with a 2,500mAh battery which supports Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0 via the USB Type-C port.

The Sharp Aquos R Compact will likely remain a device exclusive to the Japanese market when it releases this coming December. This is probably the first ever compact device with a bezel-less display. What do you think?

333

The Aquos S2 will come equipped with a Snapdragon 630, 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage expandable to 128GB via microSD card. For the 5.5-inch screen, Sharp has opted to go with an FHD+ screen with a resolution of 2040 x 1080 which houses an 8MP selfie camera. On the back, there is a dual-camera setup with 12MP + 8MP configuration and has Trinal Camera which is a Sharp innovation that offers dual 1.4 nanometer MP, Full Pixel PDAP Dual Focus and a Dual-Lens Professional Depth-of-field Effect. There are a number of unique photo taking functions that offers users better selfies, low light performance and anti-shake photo capture.

Sharp Aquos S2 launched in China with slim bezel front

312

While bezel-less display smartphones are on the rise, there have been little to no such smartphones in the entry level and mid range spectrum. The last known handset to launch with a near bezel-less display is the LG Q6, which was probably the first non-flagship device with such a feature. Sharp has added another handset to that equation.

The Sharp Aquos S2 is the company’s latest smartphone to date. Sharp made the headlines approximately three years ago with what was probably the first ever “bezel-less” smartphone – the Sharp Aquos Crystal. But the phone had a really huge ugly chin below the screen. The Sharp Aquos S2 has improved upon that with a less obvious chin below the display, and a more trendy 18:9 display aspect ratio, measuring at 5.5-inches in Full HD+ resolution. The display reminds us of the Essential Phone, and potentially the upcoming iPhone 8.

Underneath the hood is a Snapdragon 630 processor with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage. There is also a premium model with a Snapdragon 660 chipset, 6GB RAM and 128GB internal storage. The Sharp Aquos S2 sports a dual rear camera setup which sounds impressive on paper – 12MP + 8MP sensors with Dual Pixel technology along with another 8MP shooter on the front. The phone packs a 3,020mAh battery.

The Sharp Aquos S2 will probably remain as a China exclusive device for the foreseeable future. The regular variant will carry a price tag of CNY 2,499 (RM 1597.52) while the premium model costs CNY 3,599 (RM 2236.79).

Sharp Aquos S2 sold out in first sale

286

Sharp is back in proper action, having released a smartphone with a near bezel-less front after so long. The last time Sharp attempted to produce a phone like that was a couple of years ago with the Sharp Aquos Crystal. The latest addition by the company – the Sharp Aquos S2 was unveiled just recently and it has begun to go on sale.

Chinese retailer JD.com reports that the Sharp Aquos S2 was sold out in just under 24 hours, making the device quite the fast seller for a lesser known brand in the smartphone industry. JD.com did not indicate the number of units sold within the time frame but it has probably amounted to thousands, which can be considered a feat to Sharp.

The Sharp Aquos S2 sports a front near bezel-less display which looks similar to that of the Essential Phone. Underneath the hood is either a Snapdragon 630 or 660 processor and 4GB of 6GB of RAM.

The second wave of the Sharp Aquos S2 units are slated to arrive some time later today. JD.com has pointed out that interested buyers would need to register for the device in order to land a purchase. Either way, a secured purchase isn’t guaranteed. Would you like the Sharp Aquos S2 to make a Malaysian appearance?

Sharp Cloud Smarthome Security System Review: Sophisticated yet Simple!

463

As the usage of smartphones and tablets become more common these days, consumer electronics manufacturers have been hard at work on making their products connected to the internet all the time, we’ve seen how LCD TVs evolved into connected Smart TVs, smart watches that makes phone calls and connects remotely to your smartphone, and even routers that you can manage remotely at the comfort at your hand. Sharp, a Japanese firm famous for its LCD panels for smartphones, have produced the region’s first cloud enabled security solution called the Cloud SmartHome Security System and we have been using it for a month, how does it compare to traditional and internet enabled security systems? We find out.

You are not buying a single hardware

Sharp’s Cloud SmartHome is a suite of security products rather than just selling individual hardware alone, while most surveillance hardware comes with different system and applications, Sharp has bundled HD IP Cameras, Door Sensors, a Siren, a Motion Sensor, Remote Controls and a Panic Button, all of theses devices are controlled and connected by one master hardware – the OverCloud Processing Unit (OPU), users will only need to download the smartphone app from Google Play or the Apple App Store to configure the security system.

While most internet enabled security systems will either rely on the manufacturer’s own cloud system or require a dedicated IP address to access remotely, Sharp uses Amazon’s reliable servers to deliver a consistently connected experience and we have to report that we have never faced any down time during the review period, apart from our country’s very unstable internet connection of course.

What makes Sharp’s solution really different from the rest of the pack is its simplicity at setting up the hardware, we’d call it a pretty dumb proof method as you don’t need to access any web interface to configure the surveillance hardware, Sharp has been extremely smart to print QR codes for every of its hardware and all the user needs to do is to make sure their smartphone cameras are working and with the Cloud SmartHome app installed, scan the QR code and make sure the device is within the OPU’s proximity and it’ll be activated instantly.

The Hardware and Usability

OverCloud Processing Unit (OPU)

The brain and master of every surveillance device in the package, the OPU is a proprietary router or station that features two connectivity options – RF and
WiFi 802.11n
, it serves as the gateway for the security devices and there is simply no way to access the device with a web interface, it has an Ethernet WAN port for internet connection, two USB ports for saving videos and pictures from the IP cameras and it unfortunately doesn’t support
external hard drives
 despite having a rated amperage of 1A.

HD 1.3-Megapixel IP Camera with Loudspeaker and Microphone

With a field-of-view of 73.1 degrees and an aperture of f/2.0, this is definitely one of the best
surveillance camera
 optics that you can find out there, Sharp’s
HD IP camera
 has a built-in loudspeaker and microphone that outputs voice from your smartphone’s microphone and records sound from the environment respectively, it has a lux light that will enable night vision to the optics and users can save recorded videos to its built-in MicroSD card slot, which literally means you could just use the camera standalone even if the OPU isn’t available, the camera will record videos in 1280 x 960 resolution @ 30 fps which is sufficient for viewing surveillance footage.

Image Sample from Sharp
HD IP Camera

In our tests, we are using a Streamyx 8 Mbps connection which has a paltry upload speed of 512 kbps and we have to report that the camera is still able to produce a pretty decent streaming quality when viewed with a stable HSPA+ connection.

Door/Window
 Sensor

The
Door/Window
 sensor works similarly to any other products out there, it connects via RF (radio frequency) and depends on a magnet module to sense movement between the door or window. What’s really smart about it when someone attempts to remove the battery cover of the device, the alarm will be triggered if armed.

Motion Sensor

With a 120 degree and 10-40 feet of detection range, the motion sensor will trigger the alarm should it detect any movement in the spotted range, in our test we found out that the device could be a little over sensitive at outdoors, especially during the night where there’s shadows, it unintentionally trigger the alarm even when there’s nothing solid appearing in front of it and we certainly recommend disabling the device if you don’t really need it.

Siren

The Siren is one of our favorite hardware. First, it doesn’t sound like any police like siren, but it starts off with a low-pitched beep then slowly increasing its volume and pitch as the alarm continues to be triggered, eventually reaching an extremely high pitched sound that outputs a deafening 110dB, which can easily scare anyone away easily.

Panic Button

The last and most straightforward hardware, useful for kids and old folks who wants to get to you immediately and they just simply need to press that button to make the alarm go Boom!

The Software

Since you won’t need to be a genius to set up the hardware, Sharp’s software experience is pretty straightforward. For first time users, you’ll only need to sign up a free account using your mobile number and e-mail, you will also be able to give access to up to two family members if you want them to be able to access the security system.

The Cloud SmartHome Security app is technically the remote control to almost everything on the ecosystem, you’ll be able to add/remove devices, arm/disarm the system, retrieve stills and videos from the
IP camera
, and triggering the alarm manually.

Sharp has been considerate enough for users who do not have always on internet access and will allow configuring phone numbers without the need to have an online account with them, when the alarm triggers, a phone call will be made to the configured phone number to inform on the event however there is no way of disarming the alarm, which could be a shame and Sharp could’ve just achieve it by asking assigning IVR codes for it – For instance, press 1 to disarm or 2 to ignore the message.

Sharp’s security smartphone app is very well designed and has been a reliable app in our tests, which is also one of the features that sets apart from security systems that require users to sign in via a web console and streaming through unreliable RTMP protocols.

Verdict

The Cloud SmartHome Security system is an extremely reliable, sophisticated yet easy to use solution with no complicated setups, its included surveillance hardware comprises of the very best features that you can find in other competitors and all of them are controlled under one single ecosystem, which sets itself different from its competitors.

Sharp sells the Starter Kit at RM2,499 that comes with two IP cameras, the OPU, two door sensors, one remote control and a
USBflash drive
 while the Siren and Panic Button remote comes in an optional Alarm Kit which retails at RM999. The downside of this is that users will not be able to purchase one single hardware should they require to add on devices down the road, for instance if you wanted to buy just one additional
IP camera
, you’d have to purchase the HD Camera Kit that retails at RM999, which literally costs a bomb when you do the mathematics and those cameras could only well be worth around RM350 for its features in the market.

The Sharp Cloud SmartHome Security system is now available from SenHeng, SenQ, Harvey Norman and Best Denki and other authorized resellers nationwide, the security system is aimed and suitable for home and SOHO users.

The Good:

+ No complicated hardware setup
+ Extremely reliable cloud service
+ Attractive starter kit bundle
+ Alerts when hardware is tampered
+ Modern smartphone app and comprehensive controls

The Not So Good:

– Dependent on internet connection
– Motion sensor hardware triggers unintentionally
– Additional hardware can be expensive

Sharp's Android One smartphone has three days of battery life and waterproof

295

The Android One program has now made its stop at Japan with the announcement of the Sharp 507SH smartphone, this isn’t some typical Android smartphone with a MediaTek SoC, but a rather unique one that comes with a capless IPx5 water and dust resistant design and a 3010mAh battery that could last up to three days, the 507SH is coming soon exclusively to Japan’s telco Y! Mobile.

In terms of hardware design, the 507SH looks like an everyday entry-level device with a plastic body and somehow thick bezels, the phone has a 5-inch 720p IGZO LCD display, an Okutakoa ARM processor with 2GB of RAM and 16GB of internal memory with MicroSD expansion, a 13-megapixel main camera, VoLTE support and available in colors of bright blue, black and white. Since this is an Android One device, the 507SH should come with monthly security updates and a major OS update within 18 months of a phone’s release, Android Marshmallow should also come preloaded out of the box as well.

The phone is expected to reach Y! Mobile late July this year, so do keep a look out our Japan readers!

Shazam joins the Apple family

272

A few years back, Apple acquired audio company Beats and started its Apple Music streaming service after a while, and the company is now making a big move to its music service by acquiring Shazam, a renowned music recognition app that probably you and I have been using to discover songs that we want to have it on our devices.

Despite this, the Shazam app will continue to be available on Android and iOS. Apple mentions that the app will also go ad-free for all users, which we should probably assume that it applies to Android users as well. Acquiring Shazam would be beneficial to Apple Music as it could incorporate the feature directly into its Apple Music service in the near future, a feature that isn’t available on other popular streaming services.

Apple also recently introduced a feature to search a song by the lyrics on Apple Music, and acquiring Shazam might just be the perfect moment to add even more value to this feature.

Shell has an anti-ageing engine oil for your automobiles

867

To make ourselves not look older than we actually are, we either resort to anti-ageing cosmetics or simply fire up our smartphone camera app to apply filters on our face, it certainly sucks to get old overtime. However for your old faithful automobiles, Shell has launched the new Helix High Mileage engine oil to keep the engine running as young as possible, it offers customised protection to cars that has traveled more than 100,000km of distancel, and it offers up to 40% better wear protection to prolong engine life all thanks to a Flexi Molecule Technology.

“According to the Malaysian Automotive Association’s survey during 2000-2015, there are some 11 million cars on the road in Malaysia and approximately half of them are 10 years or older. The challenging economic climate also means that more owners are driving their cars for longer. Shell Helix High Mileage is specifically formulated to address common problems in high mileage cars such as a dirty engine, reduced engine performance and oil leaks from worn seals, gaskets and parts.” quoted Shairan Huzani Husain, Managing Director of Shell Malaysia Trading Sdn Bhd.

Shell launches an all-new retail concept as part of its three-year transformation program

347

Shell aims to deliver the best hospitality on Malaysian roads by offering an enhanced customer retail experience. How are they doing that? Well, today, Shell Malaysia unveiled a brand new retail concept at its Select Shell stores, which aims to be a food oasis to motorists. Instead of just a simple grab-and-go store at a petrol kiosk, Shell Malaysia plans to turn top-of-the-range Shell stations into a place where motorists can get a larger variety of food options in a clean, vibrant and friendly atmosphere.

This concept was kickstarted with the popular snack and beverage franchises such as Krispy Kreme and Boost Juice being made available at SH Shell Damansara Jaya, to complement the freshly baked pastries and coffee-on-the-go currently available from deli2go.

Apparently, this new upgrade was due to a market study done by Shell early last year that showed at least 90% of consumers think it is important to have a place to sit and relax at the store. Also, the study showed that if the store was clean and well-maintained, 4 out of 5 people will have a positive in-store experience.

Now, Shell intends to roll out this new retail concept to more than 30 other stations over the year. However, not all of them will be the same as each Shell Select store will be customised with individual food offerings depending on the needs of the consumers in that area. Shell will also be partnering with a range of other food and beverage retailers – both local and foreign, to bring together popular franchises and its in-store deli2go.

In addition to upgrading these 30 Shell Select stores, Shell has also mentioned an additional 100 existing Shell Select stores will be refurbished to sport a modern revamped look, offering improved facilities such as seating lounges, complimentary Wi-Fi and charge stations, which complement other features including upgraded restrooms and suraus (prayer rooms) available at top-of-the-range Shell stations.

To commerate this launch, SH Shell Damansara Jaya will offer some special deals from now until 29 February 2016. For donut lovers, there is a “Buy 1, Free 1” offer at Krispy Kreme, while Boost Juice is also offering a special deal for customers to enjoy a second beverage at half price. Customers can also buy two seasonal pastries including the butter gipfel, chicken sausage doughnut, and honey barbecue sausage roll from deli2go at only RM6.90. For a limited time only, hot or iced freshly brewed latte from deli2go is also available at RM3.90. There is also a free fuel voucher for every lubricants purchase from Shell Select.


Shell Malaysia launches mobile app for fuel payment

3.6K

Don’t feel like stepping out of your car to make fuel payments at Shell petrol stations? You can do it at the comfort of your car with the new Shell app, which can now be downloaded for free from the Google Play Store and Apple App Store.

While Shell isn’t the first petrol station to do mobile fuel payments, it is the first mobile fuelling app that aims to take the user’s security more seriously than the rest with 3-D Secure verification, which essentially means you will need to enter your credit card’s OTP (One-Time PIN) every time you purchase fuel through the app.

In addition, users who have registered their BonusLink card with their mobile phone number will automatically be linked in the Shell app, there’s no manual migration needed not unless you have not binded your card to your registered phone number, and points collection will be as usual when you purchase fuel through the Shell app.

Of course, the Shell app will also allow you to redeem your BonusLink points for fuel purchase and other items in the Shell SELECT store, where after redeeming the item you want, you will only need to grab the said item from the shelf and have the cashier scan the QR code on your app to complete the transaction.

At this time of writing, the Shell app does look pretty basic for now and does what it is meant to do, while Shell Malaysia officials have revealed that more features will be coming soon, and one of it being the integration of its Shell Recharge EV charging service into the app.

This new collection features four iconic Ferrari cars, a Finish line and Podium with a Scuderia Ferrari Engineer LEGO Minifigure, and a Shell Station modeled after the same station found at Fiorano Circuit, Scuderia Ferrari’s provate racetrack in Maranello, together with a Shell Scientist LEGO Minifigure.

Shell and Waze collaborate to make the trip back home safer this festive season

433

Shell Lubricants Malaysia has teamed up with Waze the most popular traffic and navigation app to launch Asia’s first accident-prone spots alerts to make the roads safer for drivers this coming Ramadan and Aidilfitri season. From May 16 till July 15 2017, an alert from Shell Helix will pop up on Waze to remind drivers to be careful when approaching the 50 accident-prone spots across Peninsular Malaysia, based on data submitted by Waze users, the message will only appear when the users car is stationary to avoid distracting the user.

During the pre-peak travel period, Shell will also be running a special oil change promotion for Waze users that watched its Aidilfitri video on YouTube or Facebook, where a code will flash on screen and on the Waze app giving users a RM30 discount on oil change at participating Shell Helix branded workshops and Shell Retail stations’ Lubebay service outlets.

In 2014, Shell launched the flagship Shell Helix Ultra with PurePlus Technology fully synthetic motor oil which is the first and only motor oil to feature the revolutionary gas-to-liquid technology that converts natural gas into an ultra-clean base oil. This allows the company to deliver higher levels of cleansing and protection, keeping your engine closer to an engine right out of the factory. In addition to that, it will also remove sludge left behind by inferior oils and provides wear and corrosion protection, extending the life and reducing the maintenance cost of the engine.

Shell Helix also unveiled Malaysia’s first engine warranty program, the Shell Helix Engine Warranty (S.H.E.W) last year which covers the cost of repair or replacement of 15 engine components that may fail if its proven that Shell motor oils fails to provide lubrication and protection. The program is given to all personal passenger vehicles that are registered in Malaysia and is below eight years old, recently Shell has increased the eligibility to cars with mileage of 150,000 KM or below.

Shhhh & Reconnect

290

Imagine:
You and your friends meet up for a little get-together after years of not seeing each other and finally all of you get to catch up with life. Just as the conversation was about to begin, everyone else’s phones start buzzing and next thing you know it, you’re left alone in the corner with a cup of punch in your hand asking yourself why you even bothered to show up for this event while all the other
socially inclined
human beings get lost in their smartphones. Pathetic much?

It seems like technology in this day and age has proven to be a bane more than a boon where (face-to-face) socializing is concerned. However, Ilwon Yoon might just have the answer to this predicament with ‘Shhhh’ – an app designed to intelligently rid one’s self of mindless notifications when an appointment is in session.

“Most of my works are aiming to enrich communication among people to create vibrant communities with the use of mobile/web technologies,” said Yoon, a graduate from
NYU ITP
.

Shhhh takes advantage of GPS coordinates to determine when and where to turn off your phone’s countless and at times unnecessary notifications in a gentle manner.

Once set up, the app will run in the background and you wouldn’t have to configure it again. It would stay silent and do all the necessary auto-replying on your behalf and in a very polite manner too!

Shhhh will also remind you that you are currently in a meeting now by giving you a gentle pop-up when you access your smartphone during an appointment.

It also enables you to check on your friend’s availability to chat up or not.

Although the design of Shhhh is complete, the development of the app is still in process and there is no word as of yet when we are to expect a beta release. No matter, below is a light-hearted video summary of Shhhh for your viewing pleasure. Enjoy.

Shoot videos like a Pro on the Galaxy Note20 Ultra 5G

295

The Galaxy Note20 Ultra 5G is more than just a productivity smartphone as it can also be a great content creation device, this is one of the few flagship smartphones in the market that can record 8K videos and probably the only one that lets you take full control of your video image settings with the Pro Video mode, so let’s dive in and talk about how you can use each of these features in the Pro Video mode to take mobile videography up a notch.

Watch the video here!

ISO

The ISO setting lets you determine the level of light sensitivity of the camera, as the value goes higher your image becomes brighter in low light and this allows you to capture fast moving objects, but at the expense of having more noise levels and compromising details if lighting isn’t ideal. Depending on your lighting conditions, ISO sensitivity value should always be at a reasonable value to ensure your videos don’t look too grainy or too dark.

Shutter Speed

The shutter speed setting complements the ISO sensitivity setting, where it lets you determine how much light you want to let in to the camera sensor, the faster the shutter speed, the darker your image is but with the benefit of capturing smoother frame rates in videography. With a slower shutter speed, you will be able to get brighter images and potentially lower noise levels with a lower ISO value, however making it too slow will result in choppy frames.

White Balance and Color Control

It isn’t every time you like the color tone of your live view when it is affected by lighting, which is why the White Balance and Color Control feature is your best friend here, you can give your video a warmer tone that makes it a lot more comfortable to watch, adjust contrast, saturation and highlights to make your subject colors pop, it is very easy to get the hang of it unlike on some mirrorless cameras where you need to dive deep into their settings to get these image controls.

Microphone Direction

Ever wondered why your voice always gets muffled in videos, that’s because most phones don’t allow you to choose the right microphone to record your voice. The microphone setting in the Pro Video lets you choose three different voice recording modes – Omni-direction, rear and front, so whether you are taking a video of your friend or a selfie video, your voice will never sound muffled again, there’s even a gain control where you can increase the microphone’s volume, you can also set to receive sound from an external USB or Bluetooth microphone.

There’s no other flagship smartphone that comes with such complete pro video controls without downloading a separate app, go check out the Galaxy Note20 Series
here
! The Galaxy Note20 Series is priced as below:

Galaxy Note20 – RM3,899

Galaxy Note20 5G – RM4,299

Galaxy Note20 Ultra 5G – RM5,199

Not only that, Shopee is introducing Guaranteed Prizes – “One or Not?”, allowing users to purchase products like the Xiaomi Mi 9T, Samsung Galaxy S10, Nintendo set, Fitbit Versa and more for only RM1.

Shopee services to continue during movement restrictions with zero delivery fee

1.1K

Shopee
 has announced that shipping services will continue during the movement control order issued by PM Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin.

This comes after the likes of Grab and
Foodpanda
 also ensuring the
rakyat

that it’s business as usual from them. This doesn’t come as a surprise since postal services around the country are not halted despite the restrictions – postal services are, of course, too important to cease operating; meanwhile food delivery and online shopping services are important
too
 to help people get what they need while maintaining social distancing.

On
Shopee
 of course, you can get essential items like canned food, face masks, and even the newly added category of fresh produce! Next-day delivery will be offered to customers within
Klang
 Valley and Southern Malaysia which is applicable for orders made on the
Shopee
 Mart by 10am every day. On top of that,
Shopee
 will also continue to free shipping during this period.

We need to point out that the restrictive movement order does not mean the end of the world, and by the end of March, things will resume as normal.
So
 for now, remember to fight the virus by practicing proper hygiene and social distancing.

Should I reduce my texting? What do chiropractors claim

325

Texting is bad for your health. Do it while walking and you can bump into walls or step out into traffic. Studies have linked excessive texting with insomnia, stress and painful tendons (BlackBerry thumb). Now the United Chiropractic Association (UCA) has warned that texting for long periods could lower life expectancy because it makes people lean forward. The association links “forward-leaning posture” (defined as dropping the head forward and rounding the shoulders) with the risk of developing hyperkyphosis in old age. Hyperkyphosis is an abnormal rounding of the upper spine that reduces the space available for the heart and lungs, so they are put under pressure and work less effectively. An older person with hyperkyphosis, chiropractors warn, will suffer the same increase in the risk of death as an obese person. The association is encouraging people to have their posture checked by a registered chiropractor. So should you limit your texting immediately?

The solution

Most people text too much (during meetings, at meals and when they’re talking to you), and it’s really annoying. But there is no good evidence that adopting the texting posture will cause structural changes to your back and lead to an increased risk of premature death.

The UCA’s warning that poor posture is as big a threat to health as obesity is both dramatic and unfounded. That isn’t to say that the forward-leaning position is harmless. A study from the Centre for Musculoskeletal Research in Sweden found that texting made people bend their head forward by more than 10 degrees and those who texted the most had the most neck and/or shoulder pain. A small study of 138 students from Temple University in the US also found a link between texting and neck and shoulder pain, but only in men sending more than 21 texts a day.

The condition of “text neck” caused by increased stress and muscle spasm is now a recognised 21st-century syndrome. If you want to avoid text neck, try meeting up with people, writing letters or phoning instead. If you must text, take a break after five minutes. Also hold your phone up so that it is at mouth height and you can see the screen by looking down with your eyes, rather than bending your neck. Generally, however, research does not suggest there are any long-term risks. Texting does not seem to cause chronic backache and a report in the European Spine Journal states that that no interventions for poor posture reduced neck pain in workers. While medical professionals disagree on what constitutes good posture, most would agree that hunching for hours over a mobile phone falls into the not-so-good category.
