一個預訂售價為199美金的運動手環，搭配觸控螢幕、GPS無線電，原訂於今年上市，在七月時HTC宣布第一次延遲此產品的上市的消息，並稱：｢在多項的磨損測試以及用戶的反饋，決定調整產品的強度以及組合，且在今年底推出。 」；第二次延遲，HTC則在Connected Fitness的平台上發布一份聲明中：HTC表示，已經決定和Under Armour公司合作，但會引響整個產品的生產至2016。
隨著HTC的Vivi VR 虛擬實境頭盔的發明，HTC運動手環也是HTC試圖多樣化公司產品的範圍的產物，因為HTC在過去幾年智慧型手機的銷量以及利潤的下降；在虛擬實境頭盔還沒投入市場，且穿戴式裝置上已經充滿著競爭者，不知能否保證新產品可以帶給HTC由虧轉盈的機會。

貓頭鷹Noctua 是一家專業研發散熱器和風扇的奧地利公司,工廠在台灣所以全部製作過程都在台灣而研發在奧地利。 只要對電腦DIY有點研究一定知道 Noctua的散熱器性能是世界第一名而外觀上是最後一名，是滿極端說法可是是事實。 如果大家打 Top 5 Best Air CPU Cooler 一定會發現前3名它們全部包下了。 而在打 Top Most Ugly Air CPU Cooler 前三名它們也包下了。Tommy要評測 NH-D15S 是 NH-D15 進化版我不會和上一代做比較因為相信很多新玩家沒有使用過，我直接就以它為主。
NH-D15S 盒子就告訴你它有什麼特別了， 不妨礙你的記憶體，不搶你的顯卡冷風 ，NF-A15 140厘米風扇，支援雙風扇，低音控制器，等其他功能。盒子寫台灣製造，六年保護我個人很少會使用一台CPU散熱器那麼久的。 當然這也是告訴你 Noctua對它們產品的信心。
盒子一打開就發現為什麼包裝那麼好感覺好像在評測精品感覺， 你看散熱器包的那麼地紮實風扇片絕對不會受到傷害，配件包也是包裝良好分類非常清楚很有條理，大家應該知道奧地利人就和德國人一樣走的是嚴謹的風格，一板一眼每個包裝都是這樣的。
配件包打開全部工具大家發現沒有任何複雜工具，而每一個包裝都寫是給Intel還是AMD用的工具。整體外觀Tommy只有一句話可以說就是非常的贊！外觀包的和精品一樣，可是黑色配咖啡色沒有什麼美感。 這又回到奧地利人就和德國人一樣就是那麼死板。
NH-D15S 安裝非常方便，不複雜，安裝手冊是英文的，可是有照片而且非常清楚不用擔心看不懂。
AMD CPU 散熱器的溫度
Noctua NH D15S 溫度
Tommy特別拿 AMD FX8350 CPU 因為熱度上升較快，比較凸顯差別，在測試公司CPU散熱器和NH-D15S 溫度差別平均在10攝氏,而公司CPU散熱器很吵而 NH-D15S許多非常安靜，比多家Tommy玩過 CPU散熱器來比較相對更安靜。
NH-D15S 在安靜和效能上是少數幾家達到平均，而安裝不複雜，可是外觀不吸引人，而整體風扇和不打擾你其他零件組也是少數幾家真正有做到如此完美。 當然在價位上一直是大家相較抗拒一點是它要3050台幣一個是比較高價位CPU散熱器，可是大家想一想好的產品本來就不該便宜的。

大家還記得有郭雪芙代言的 Sony Xperia M4 嗎？Tommy對 Xperia M4第一印象降級版的 Xperia Z3，因為外觀除了電源鍵較小其他沒有什麼不同在規格方面採用Qualcomm Snapdragon 615 CPU，2GB RAM / 16GB ROM 儲存空間就是一個以中階智能手機市場為主，而這次 Xperia M5 Sony說它是超中階智慧型手機也就是說它超過中階可是是真的嗎？ 馬上來看看Tommy的評測。
Xperia M5 外觀一樣用上 Sony 經典OmniBalance 設計，Xperia M5大小是 145 x 72 x 7.6mm 而 Xperia M4 145.5 x 72.6 x 7.3mm 整體大小,變小變厚重量重了一點應該是全新鏡頭產生重量。
前後鏡頭位置和上一代一樣除了後面閃光燈從在鏡頭下面移到上面離中間還有一點點距離而已。 前面螢幕上下喇叭孔還是假的，喇叭就是 手機底部的 Mirco USB 旁邊。其他按鍵就是 Xperia M4一樣沒有改變了。
Xperia M5 共有水媚黑、水嫩白、水面金三個顏色給大家選擇， Tommy 手上這台是 水面金個人覺得太 Bling Bling ，整體感覺 整體一機堅固當然因為 Xperia M5 是 IP65/68防塵防水等級。Sony在價格有限情況還要採用二面玻璃已經非常厲害只是邊框是樹膠材質降低整體質感，難道價位關係造成的嗎值得大家好想一下了。
Sony Xperia M5 5寸螢幕有大大提升從 Xperia M4 720p HD 294 ppi 變成 1080p HD 441 ppi ，前面鏡頭也是大大提升 5百萬畫素提升到 13百萬畫素。 Xperia M5 和上一代一樣支援雙 SIM 卡可是雙待 4G Lte 模式。Mirco SD 卡 最高支援到 200GB覺得有點太多用不到。外觀總結 Sony 沒有在 Xperia M5的外觀上改變多大而是加強鏡頭， 螢幕提升，和4G雙卡。不過一樣 Tommy對於金色邊框因為太亮，膠質感太重而不喜歡。
Sony 這次沒有採用 Qualcomm Snapdragon 系列的 CPU 而採用 Mediatek MT6795 Helio X10 八核心 2.2 GHz 速度 可是不知道為什麼 Clock 速度降到 2.0 GHz？ Tommy 想法因為 Sony 對 Mediatek 晶片還不夠了解不然就是還是採用 Qualcomm配備模式造成。當然 Xperia M5 CPU 速度還是比 Xperia M4（Snapdragon 615）快了百分之三十，記憶體也從 2GB 提升到 3GB。 這次採用 GPU 超有話題 M5 採用PowerVR G6200 而 M4 採用 Adreno 405， 為什麼說有話題呢，PowerVR G6200 在速度上比厲害可是技術沒有 Adreno 405 新。 也因此 Tommy 覺得GPU是沒有很大改變。現在內建空間應該越來越便宜Xperia M5 內建空間依然和上一代一樣 16GB，現在的APP，影片和照片需要空間越來越多，可是還好 Xperia M5 可以插 Mirco SD卡補救這點。
鏡頭規格是 Xperia M5 最大改變和升級，前鏡頭升到 13百萬畫素和主鏡頭提升到21百萬畫素，是非常大提升。大家也知道現在人對自拍需求越來越多，而這次 13百萬畫素前鏡頭臉部細節更細膩。主鏡頭也是這次 Xperia M5 主打之一，從基本自動對焦，提升到混合式對焦功能， 以及 21百萬畫素並且可以錄 2k 和 1080p 影片因為 MeidaTek Helio X10 加持現在也可以錄 4K，驚人的升級。規格方面 Xperia M5 比上一代最少提升百分之三十五，比較明顯提升這次採用 Mediatek MT6795 Helio X10 CPU加強手機性能特別是相機功能，當然 記憶體提升是非常需要吸引人的。當然Tommy還是對 顯卡晶片和內建空間有一點小小抱怨，不知道大家什麼想呢？
Sony Xperia M5 評測篇
終於來到大家最喜歡一篇，Tommy 大公聲篇。 Xperia M5 外觀整體 大小是適合任何人手，完全可以單手操作，重量輕便，使用上沒有負擔，加上防水，防塵，可是還是有一點必須提醒大家SIM 卡插槽建議不要一直開開關關，因為是防水樹膠材質會疲乏當然正常情況下一年後才有可是疲乏問題，所以大家不用太擔心這個問題。
喇叭聲音較小聲，當然防水手機都一定會有這個問題，耳機音質就要看大家使用耳機，這次Tommy使用的是 Monster iSport 在聽舞曲的時候會有聽見雜音，其他問題就沒有了。
Xperia M5 主鏡頭照出來的照片品質有達到專業品質，在色彩上非常厲害，可是Sharpness不是很平均，關於這點一直是 Sony 鏡頭需要在加強地方。 黑白平衡和噪音控制非常好，燈光強地方到弱地方鏡頭跟進速度非常快。有一點Tommy還好玩錄 4K會告知你關掉其他APP以防過熱。
安兔兔效能跑分在 39，000到41，000之間（我跑了3次每次差別都蠻多的）是中階級智能手機分數，Geekbench 3 單核心845分 不高 可是在多核心 3154分這也是 Mediatek MT6795 Helio X10 在多核心有很強大性能。 Tommy 也發現在跑分的時候手機溫度提升很快從中右邊開始燙，當然也沒有那麼 Super Hot 啦。玩一般遊戲沒有卡卡可是玩 Asphalt 8 HQ模式會出現輕微卡卡，沒有多大問題。
Xperia M5 電池是 2，600mAH 比 Xperia M4多了 200mAH，可是因為這次CPU更耗電反而擔心沒有Xperia M4 好。當然 Sony 在省電功能有下很大功夫可以控制APP來達到更省電，在使用 4G看 Youtube 1080P 影片 6個小時又 34分鐘就沒有電了。它到底好與不好就看大家想法了。
Sony 一直在防水防塵和相機上是它最大強項而 Sony 在 Xperia M5 依然保持這幾點。 在 Tommy 評測就是以 Xperia M4 比 Xperia M5 為主，從規格上 Xperia M5提升到現在大眾基本要求了。
Sony Xperia M5 整體外觀品質很好除了樹膠材質其他沒有什麼大問題，在這次螢幕提升到 1080p 可是手機過熱問題依然還沒有真正解決。 這次相機鏡頭是完全達到高階手機鏡頭需求，十分吸引對鏡頭有高要求用戶。 那 Xperia M5 到底是不是中高階智慧型手機呢從鏡頭到規格是，可是外觀沒有做到。不知道大家想法和Tommy一樣嗎？

Taipei, Taiwan – Oct. 21, 2015 - ADATA Lighting, a leading global LED lighting manufacturer, today announced its participation in the Hong Kong International Lighting Fair. The event is the biggest lighting trade show in Asia, taking place October 27-30 at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre. ADATA is focusing on the “Light Evolution Unlimited – Now and Tomorrow” theme, and will take this opportunity to unveil high efficiency T8 LED tubes and bulbs, high color rendering index (CRI) Linear Lights, MR16 lights, as well as advanced LED ceiling lights with remote motion sensing technology, and modular outdoor lighting. These state of the art LED lighting products serve to demonstrate ADATA's strong research and development capabilities and distinguish it as a distinct brand dedicated to serving customers worldwide.
ADATA will demonstrate its latest lighting products, reaching new levels of efficiency and natural light performance. Until recently, LEDs have been catching up with traditional lighting in delivering natural light. However, ADATA has now taken advantage of advancements in technology to provide efficient LED lighting that matches the natural color rendering of traditional lighting. Meeting the high demand for efficient LED lighting that provides advanced specifications such as ultra-high luminosity and CRI, ADATA is ready with a variety of high CRI products. At the lighting fair, visitors will be able to experience the ADATA Linear Light LED with CRI 95 and the MR16 (CRI 90) among others, which provide natural, vivid, and sun-like lighting without the eye-irritating aspects of traditional lighting. ADATA also has a selection of products for customers that demand ultra-high luminosity. T8 LED tubes and bulbs reach luminosity of 160lm/w and 130lm/w, respectively. Their efficient power usage enables significant cost reductions for commercial users, one of the largest markets for LED lighting, an area ADATA is fully committed to and invested in.
Besides pushing the boundaries of pure LED performance, ADATA has focused research and development efforts on LED lighting products with smart remote control and sensing capabilities. A leading product in this segment is the AURA RGB bulb, which uses low-power Bluetooth transmission to give users remote control of up to 64 separate bulbs with no additional networking hardware needed. Through an ADATA smartphone app, users may control AURA bulbs from a host of mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets, enjoying the 16 million color range and the convenience of standard E26 and E27 base types. The latter also make AURA bulbs a seamless replacement for existing lights. At the Hong Kong Lighting Fair, ADATA will also have ceiling lights on display that feature infrared motion sensing. Rated for 13W and a color temperature of 6,000K, users can control these ceiling lights totally hands-free. Using simple hand waves, users can turn the lights on and off and adjust brightness from 25% to 100%.
A major area of growth for LED lighting are exterior spaces, which ADATA is catering to with modular outdoor lighting products that employ high-grade optics, sturdy one-piece construction, efficient cooling for non-stop operation, and wide temperature tolerance.

Walnut City, Calif. – October 21, 2015 – Tenda Technology Inc.®, a subsidiary of Shenzhen Tenda – an experienced, global brand of wired and wireless networking hardware – today announces wider availability for the A301 N300 Universal Range Extender in USA stores shipped from USA. The A301 is designed to improve the signal range and strength of existing IEEE 802.11b/g/n WiFi networks to cover poorly connected areas of the home, office, or even outside. Setup couldn't be easier – by simply pressing the WPS button on any router, then pressing the corresponding button on the A301, it automatically connects to and boosts the power of the network. The smart signal indicator detects if it is in the best possible location and its wall-mounted design makes it easy to place where needed most.
The Tenda A301 is used in places with poor connection: where there are no wireless hotspots; when there is too much interference; if the router is too far away; where there are too many obstructions or barriers. Interference – microwaves, metal appliances, rock walls, blocked line of sight – is common in buildings and hampers the expected range of any router. The A301 circumvents this interference to cover tricky areas like backyards, attics, basements, or even deep, dark dungeons. The A301 can also accept a LAN cable, adding WiFi capacity to a wired network.
With the push of the WPS button on a router and the boost button on the A301, the extender locks on to an existing WiFi network and duplicates it, creating a much larger and more powerful combined area. There is no need for cables or complicated setup. Any room with a simple electrical outlet can act as the data hub; no longer is WiFi tied to the room with the modem.
The A301 features the Smart Signal Indicator to gauge signal strength. If the light is green, the signal is strong; if the light is solid orange, simply find a different socket and try again. As the A301 can mount on wall sockets, it can be placed in flexible spots. This convenience paired with the Smart Signal Indicator makes it easy to find the best possible location for the AC301.
The A301 is available now for $20 at TigerDirect and Amazon.

October 15, 2015, Keelung, Taiwan - Lian-Li Industrial Co. Ltd announces the PC-18 mid tower chassis: designed to feel compact while fitting powerful air and water cooling options inside. The interior arranges the components along the inner wall, leaving the center of the case open for the custom-built swing-out fan bracket that improves cooling performance. Available in silver and black exteriors, this brushed aluminum build harkens back to classic Lian Li minimalism. The dual exterior facing drive bays and twin 120mm fans on the front give it an old school look. The crisp exterior is broken only by the hidden USB/HD audio ports, power button, the 140mm fan grill, and the custom side air intake grill.
The PC-18 has been designed to maximize airflow and cooling. Air is drawn in through the primary front grill. The porous mesh screen does not restrict airflow to the included pair of 120mm fans, keeping them clean and efficient in use. Combined with the included top 140mm fan, this case easily maintains positive air pressure and keeps all dust out. The side vent fans are the wild card; they give the flexibility to change the airflow depending on the build. Up to two additional 140mm or three 120mm fans can be installed in push or pull as needed. The bracket can also be used to mount a watercooling radiator. It can hold custom or all-in-one systems with up to 360 (3×120) radiators.
The PC-18 can hold an unusual combination of drives. The top drive bay consists of two tool-less 5.25” drive bays for through-case access. This case is designed for users that need optical drive bays for devices such as audio controls, video capture ports, fan controllers, hot swap bays, bay mounted reservoirs or even optical drives that still require this type of mounting. Storage drives can be mounted on the removable, vibration dampened, and tool-less bay that holds three 3.5” drives and one 2.5” drive. If the bay is removed, two drives can be flat-mounted behind the motherboard tray.
Despite being quite slim and neither too long nor too tall – measuring 210mm wide, 452mm high, and 490mm thick – the PC-18 can fit full ATX components inside. Both CPU coolers and PSU can be up to 160mm tall. VGA cards up to 285mm can fit alongside the drive cage, though removing the cage makes room for 410mm cards. The front fan mounts support two 120mm or one 240mm radiator, while the side mount can support larger systems up to 360mm.
One of the main features of the PC-18 is the side-mounted fan tray. When the chassis is closed, the tray is held against the inner side panel with vents. When opened, the tray can then swing open on its front hinge. Simply pull up to open the hinge and remove the whole tray. Two thumbscrews secure the free-swinging side to prevent any accidental movement. The top panel hides two USB 3.0 ports and the HD audio ports behind a sliding door. The side panels use thumbscrews to open; the front panel is also removable.
The PC-18 will be USD $149.9 coming soon.
