before possible. Jedi Challenges features a smartphone-powered Lenovo
Mirage AR headset, Tracking Beacon, Lightsaber controller, and hours of Star
Wars gameplay1. The product is compatible with both
Android phones and iPhones. Users start by downloading the Star Wars:
Jedi Challenges app2 onto their compatible phone and sliding
the phone into the tray of the Lenovo Mirage AR headset. Sleek, portable
and lightweight, the Lenovo Mirage AR headset will provide full gaming
immersion with an optimal level of comfort during gameplay. The headset

as a stable base for the headset’s sensors to detect the user’s movement
during gameplay. The headset pairs with a collectible-quality Lightsaber
controller modeled after the one wielded by Anakin Skywalker, Luke
Skywalker and Rey. Designed to be a key part of the experience, the

activated with a simple two-button configuration.

explore and discover through holo-tours, and enhance the video-watching
experience via 3D, 360-degree and 4K videos. Set it up in just minutes

world – just point the lens at an object, and it will ask if you want to
learn about what you’re seeing. Or, spice up your selfies with the
Augmented Reality (AR) feature, which lets you add a layer of animations
to your photos or videos. The newest moto X4 is also the
first of Motorola’s smartphones to feature Amazon Alexa, giving you more
options when choosing a mobile digital assistant3. Experience
Amazon Alexa integrated right into moto x4 – without even

house or simply out and about, the features and benefits of Alexa are

smart home. You can find what you’re searching for using the tablet’s
on-screen display cards on its 10-inch or 8-inch screen. All you need to
do is ask. The Home Assistant Pack equips the Tab 4 with the “Home

a 2-in-1 and a kid’s tablet and Productivity Pack to do more.
