Jon Goes Hands-On with Wave 3

One of my favorite tech bloggers, Jon Rettinger of TechnoBuffalo, is at IFA and gave us this sneak peak at the Wave 3. Granted he hasn’t spent much time with bada as he is usually reviewing phones in the United States….he seems pretty impressed with the hardware and software of bada.

Timelapse App Review

You probably once saw a movie where the story skipped a few day’s and then they showed fast moving could’s and a sun. Well I don’t know about you but I always wondered how do they make that effect.  (little explanation): They just take pictures every few seconds or minutes.  Then they put all those pictures together and show them at a 20 or higher frame-rate (basic of fluid moving video).  Well like  a company would say that i’m not going to name THERE IS AN APP FOR THAT!!!  This app is called, make a guess: TimeLapse.  Timelapse is an app which is simple to use.  Thanks to the nice GUI.  You can control everything interval between frames, frames cap for when you don’t want to wait at your phone wile you are taking your epic timelapse.

There is one “problem” with this app.  When you wan’t to save your timelapse  on your phone memory it will be coded in a format that your phone ins’t able to playback.  This is a small problem, it isn’t the developer his  fault but it’s something with the encoder’s and other things that where not allowed by the Samsungapps certification team.  Ill just look over that small problem cause its an epic app.

I give this app a 4.5/5    so that means  its a must get app.

And Thanks To the Developer for all of the coupon codes. To see the codes, just click read more.
