Acceleration from 0 to 100 km / h in 7.3 seconds, more than 500 km without recharging at a price of just over $ 20 thousand. BYD Yuan Plus enters the world market
Chinese electric vehicle manufacturer BYD has released its latest electric vehicle, the BYD Yuan Plus, which will arrive outside of China. On February 19, Chinese sales began, but BYD Yuan Plus has already been confirmed for Singapore and Australia. In addition, it is expected that it will be sold in other regions of the world.
The BYD Yuan Plus is an all-electric crossover that seats five. It was first demonstrated back in August 2021. BYD Yuan Plus, like BYD Dolphin, is based on BYD’s proprietary 3.0 platform. Yuan Plus is seen as the successor to the earlier BYD Yuan. It has received the latest Dragon Face 3.0 design. The dimensions of the car are 4455 x 1875 x 1615 mm with a wheelbase of 2720 mm. It is positioned as a compact SUV, while it received a short front overhang and a large wheelbase, which provides quite a lot of seating in the cabin.
In China, the car is offered at a price of 22.8 to 24.3 thousand dollars. Pre-orders are already open in Australia and Singapore. The Australian version of the Yuan Plus is called ATTO and the battery is covered by a 7 year or 160,000 km warranty. The Australian model is fully compliant with all global regulations, which will make it easy to export the model to Europe and other countries.
The car is equipped with a permanent magnet AC synchronous motor with a maximum power of 203 hp. and peak torque of 310 Nm. Acceleration from 0 to 100 km/h takes 7.3 seconds. The power reserve of the older version reaches 510 km.
BYD Yuan Plus is equipped with a 15.6-inch swivel screen and BYD’s DiLink 4.0 (4G) network connection system, which integrates voice recognition, intelligent voice reminders and other functions.

Introduced a very unusual keyboard in the style of classic typewriters for PC and smartphones

Fineday is currently raising funds on Kickstarter to launch a keyboard that can be connected wirelessly via Bluetooth 5.0 to a Windows or Mac computer, as well as an iOS or Android tablet or smartphone. Mobile devices can be fixed like a sheet of paper right on the keyboard, which is made in the style of classic typewriters.
The keyboard can also be wired. If it works via Bluetooth, the device will need two AA batteries as a power source – nothing is said about the battery life.
Both the Fineday case and the surfaces of all its keys are made from 6063 anodized aircraft grade aluminum. The characters are engraved on the keys so they shouldn’t wear off as quickly as on a regular keyboard. Each key hides a Cherry MX Blue switch and is LED backlit.
Along with these keys, Fineday also has left and right knobs. The left knob adjusts the brightness of the backlight, while the right knob adjusts the volume of the paired device.
Early buyers can purchase the devices for $655 and end up with a price of $1,100.

WhatsApp will allow you to broadcast your screen to the interlocutor

The WhatsApp messenger development team has released update 2.23.11.19 for the Android operating system. It is already available to some beta testers through the Google Play Beta Program. The new version has the ability to share your screen with the interlocutor during a video call. To do this, you need to click on the new icon located in the call control window. In this case, everything that is displayed on the screen will be recorded and transferred to another user.
The transfer of screen contents during a video call will be continuous, but it can be interrupted at any time: the user retains full control, experts at the WABetaInfo resource say. And, of course, the broadcast will only start after the user agrees to share the screen.
Please note that the new feature may not be available on smartphones running older versions of the Android OS, or it may not work when calling in large groups. Also, the interlocutor may not accept the screen picture if he uses an outdated version of WhatsApp. While the ability to share the contents of your screen has become available only to some beta testers, it is expected that more users of the messenger will be able to evaluate it in the near future.
