  1. Nice details on the CPU (Snapdragon 625) and accelerometer (LSM6DSM Accelerometer from STM) specifications. Pictures of the CPU and the 1" image sensor (in comparison with the V) are useful.

  2. Avatar for craig craig says:

    A standard Android app with no modification is able to access the gyroscope and accelerometer.

    It looks like the minimum delay is 5000 microseconds, or 5 milliseconds, which means that the sensor could theoretically generate readings 200 times a second.

    There’s also a gravity sensor.

    There’s also some interesting temperature sensors.
