It was only a matter of time, but the 2020 Pixel Buds are no longer available from the Google Store. Expect to see any remaining stock levels at your local big box stores begin to dwindle too. Although Google has not made an "official" announcement, it's pretty safe to assume that the only Google headphones left will be the Pixel Buds A-Series. Google released the Pixel Buds (2nd gen) last year, after seeing the original iteration practically flop before they were even available. The original Pixel Buds had a wire going around the back, along with a weird way to adjust the earpiece to keep it secure. The 2020 Pixel Buds solved many of our complaints with a cute egg-shaped case and a matte finish that was to-die-for. Although the Pixel Buds didn't feature Active Noise Cancellation, they did offer Adaptive Sound. This would automatically adjust the EQ and sound levels to drown out as much noise around you as possible. Fast forward to earlier this year, and Google dropped the Pixel Buds A-Series, which sports practically the same design. Although, some key features are missing, including wireless charging. For $99, the Pixel Buds A-Series is a perfect compliment for anyone wanting to enjoy Google Assistant access and solid battery life. |

Chemical synapses transmit information within the nervous system. When a presynaptic cell is electrically excited, synaptic vesicles fuse with the presynaptic membrane causing messenger substances within the vesicles to be released into the synaptic cleft. These then bind to receptors in the postsynaptic cell where they trigger an electrical signal once again. The temporal and spatial sequence of the incoming signals determines how information is processed and transmitted in the brain. In order to sustain their function in the long term, chemical synapses need to recycle synaptic vesicles to make them available for renewed signal transmission. Professor Carsten Duch and Professor Martin Heine and their respective research groups at Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU) are investigating how the release and recycling of synaptic vesicles are coordinated. |

A team of researchers has now described how they break these bonds while forming new carbon-nitrogen bonds (amidation). |

For dairy cows, the transition period—the time between a cow giving birth and beginning to produce milk—brings the greatest possibility of health problems. The current widespread belief is that the effects of excess nonesterified fatty acids (NEFA) in the bloodstream and the ensuing hyperketonemia during this period, coupled with low levels of available calcium, are largely responsible for disorders such as mastitis, metritis, retained placenta, and poor fertility. Much attention has therefore been devoted to regulating NEFA and calcium levels in transition cows—yet all these efforts have not made the transition period less of a challenge to cows and, hence, to farmers, with approximately 75 percent of disease occurring during the first months postpartum. Dairy producers literally pay the price in terms of reduced milk production, costs of treatment, early culling of cows, reduced reproductive abilities, and animal welfare. |

Many studies have shown that poverty hampers political participation. For the first time, Max Schaub has examined the influence of acute financial hardship on political participation—situations, often lasting only a few days, in which money is so tight that it no longer covers the bare necessities. These situations are experienced primarily by people living below the poverty line. In Germany, that includes about 16 percent of the population—the unemployed, retired persons with small pensions, and single parents—social groups whose monthly budget is often spent down to the last euro. Unexpected circumstances will immediately plunge them into financial difficulties. |

Based on current research results and a survey of 65 women's counseling centers, psychosocial counseling centers and institutions working with refugees from all 16 federal states, the study finds that Germany does not adequately protect refugee women and girls and does not meet the requirements of the Istanbul Convention. |

Thousands of proteins undergo arginine N-methylation, a widespread post-translational modification catalyzed by several protein arginine methyltransferases (PRMTs) that covalently link methyl groups to arginine side chains. Nine PRMTs, PRMT1 to PRMT9, have been identified in the human genome, which are further classified into three types according to the final methylarginine products. Arginine methylation plays key roles in various cellular processes. |

Errors in the metabolic processes of mitochondria are responsible for a variety of diseases such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's. Scientists needed to find out just how the necessary building blocks are imported into the complex biochemical apparatus of these cell areas. The TOM complex (translocase of the outer mitochondrial membrane) is considered the gateway to the mitochondrion, the proverbial powerhouse of the cell. The working group headed by Professor Chris Meisinger at the Institute of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology at the University of Freiburg has now demonstrated—in human cells—how signaling molecules control this gate. A signaling protein called DYRK1A modifies the molecular machinery of TOM and makes it more permeable for enzymes that are important for the cell metabolism. The group has thus discovered the first signaling protein that directly influences this import process in humans. Their work has been published in the journal Nature Communications. |

The data spans 23 years and gives unprecedented insight into how rainfall patterns have changed. They showed that the increased rainfall was driven by the decadal increased transport of moisture from the tropics and frequent occurrence of the upper tropospheric trough over the front. |

Sea level is rising worldwide, thanks in large part to climate change. Rising seas threaten coastal communities and ecosystems, including marshes that lie at the interface between salt water and freshwater. Tidal marsh ecosystems feature distinct plants and play key ecological roles, such as serving as nurseries for fish. It is known that some tidal marshes can avoid destruction by migrating inland or through formation of new soil that raises their elevation, but a better understanding of how they are affected by rising seas could inform efforts to plan for and mitigate the effects. |

The US has formally accused China of being behind the cyberattack on Microsoft Exchange servers that occurred back in March of this year. However, the US wasn't alone in its condemnation of China as it was joined by NATO, the European Union and its allies Britain, Australia, Japan, New Zealand and Canada. According to US Secretary of State Antony Blinken, the cyberattack posed “a major threat to our economic and national security”. US President Joe Biden provided further insight on the situation to reporters during an event discussing his infrastructure plan, saying: "My understanding is that the Chinese government, not unlike the Russian government, is not doing this themselves, but are protecting those who are doing it. And maybe even accommodating them being able to do it." At the same time as the US government called out China for its role in the attacks on Microsoft Exchange servers, the US Department of Justice charged four Chinese nationals with (three security officials and one contract hacker) with targeting dozens of companies, universities and government agencies around the world. Back in April of this year, the US government hit Russia with sanctions as a result of the country's connections to last December's SolarWinds hack. This time around though, the US has called out China, who it believes is either behind or at least supported those responsible for attacking vulnerable Microsoft Exchange servers, though it has not placed sanctions on the country. Cybersecurity experts that spoke with Reuters find the lack of consequences for China over its involvement in the hack concerning. The US could take further action though as White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said that: "We are not holding back, we are not allowing any economic circumstance or consideration to prevent us from taking actions... also we reserve the option to take additional action". While the US has formally accused China's Ministry of State Security (MSS) of being behind the cyberattack, NATO has said that its members “acknowledge” the allegations leveled against China by the US, Canada and the UK. We'll have to wait and see as to how China responds and whether or not the cybercriminals responsible decide to ramp up their attacks or wind them down following this formal accusation. Via ReutersU.

Traditionally, Nintendo has been more than happy to let all its fans and the media breathlessly speculate about its plans. That wasn’t the case this week. Days after Nintendo announced the Switch OLED model, Bloomberg reported that its updated console would only cost $10 more to produce than the original Switch. As a result, Nintendo would see better profit margins from its OLED model, which will retail for $350. According to Nintendo, this is not accurate. Nintendo pushed back against the claims on Twitter. It’s rare for Nintendo to even acknowledge such reports, much less to reference them directly. Nintendo never actually names Bloomberg in its tweets, but it’s clear which report the company is citing. Here is Nintendo’s full response: Nintendo didn’t offer any proof to support its claim. It’s Nintendo’s word against Bloomberg’s. For its part, Bloomberg did report on Nintendo’s response, but had nothing to add. Perhaps more notable is the second tweet from the video game company. In addition to denying the report about profit margins, Nintendo also took the opportunity to quash the growing cacophony of rumors that other Switch models are in the works. Before the OLED Switch was announced, reports suggested Nintendo was working on a Switch Pro. The Pro model would have more powerful internals and would be able to play games in 4K. None of this turned out to be true about the OLED model. Nevertheless, we just can’t escape the Switch Pro. GamesBeat’s Jeff Grubb reiterated that he had “only ever personally heard 2022 for a Switch Pro” on the same day Nintendo announced the OLED model. He also pointed out that it wouldn’t be entirely shocking to see the company that released six 3DS models make more than two Switch models. It’s also worth noting that Nintendo never discusses new hardware until it’s much closer to launch. If there is a new Switch model coming out at some point in 2022, it’s highly unlikely the company would say a word about it until the end of this year at the earliest.

Good news for PC gamers: A Microsoft feature that promises to load up games instantly is coming to both Windows 10 and Windows 11. The feature is called DirectStorage, and it’s designed to take advantage of a PC’s NVME SSD storage drive to accelerate the loading times. Last month, Microsoft originally announced DirectStorage was arriving exclusively to Windows 11. But on Friday, the company said the technology will also be enabled on Windows 10 version 1909. “Microsoft is committed to ensuring that when game developers adopt a new API, they can reach as many gamers as possible,” the company wrote in a developer blog. “As such, games built against the DirectStorage SDK will be compatible with Windows 10, version 1909 and up.” The feature is based on the game-loading technology found in the Xbox Series X. Citing out-of-date storage APIs, Microsoft created DirectStorage to fully leverage the high bandwidth found in NVME SSD drives, starting with PCIe Gen 3.0. The technology also promises to free up the CPU, which could lead to higher game frame rates. However, Microsoft says DirectStorage will run slower on Windows 10 than Windows 11 due to the operating system's "legacy storage stacks." And, "because Windows 11 was built with DirectStorage in mind, games running on Windows 11 benefit further from new storage stack optimizations,” the company explained. It’ll be up to game developers to implement the DirectStorage API. To get the industry behind the effort, Microsoft on Friday also started releasing a developer preview of DirectStorage to select game makers. “Stay tuned as we’ll be gradually rolling out to an increasing number of developers,” Microsoft added. The company’s blog post doesn’t mention when DirectStorage will be enabled for Windows 10. But Windows 11 is slated to launch this holiday season.Windows 11: What we like and don't like about Microsoft's operating system so far

Apple iPhones can be compromised and their sensitive data stolen through hacking software that doesn't require the phone's owner to click on a link, according to a report by Amnesty International published on Sunday. Amnesty International said it discovered iPhones belonging to journalists and human rights lawyers had been infected with NSO Group's Pegasus malware that can provide the attacker access to messages, emails and the phone's microphone and camera. The revelation suggests governments using NSO Group software have been able to successfully hack iPhones to spy on user data using methods unknown to Apple, and that even keeping an iPhone up-to-date cannot stop a dedicated attacker who's using expensive and secretive spy software. The nature of the attacks also suggests changing user behavior, such as avoiding clicking on unknown or phishing links in messages, may not protect iPhone users against NSO's software. Past versions of Pegasus required the user to click a malicious link in a message, Amnesty International said. NSO Group is an Israeli firm that says it sells to vetted government agencies and law enforcement to prevent terrorism, car explosions and to break up sex and drug trafficking rings. Amnesty International found evidence of a hack in an iPhone 12, the newest iPhone model, running iOS 14.6, which was the most current software before Monday. Apple updated its software to iOS 14.7 on Monday but has not yet released security details that could indicate whether it has fixed the exploits identified by Amnesty International. Amnesty International obtained a leaked list of 50,000 phone numbers that may have been targeted by spy software made by NSO Group. It found evidence that Android devices were also targeted by NSO Group software, but wasn't able to examine those devices in the same way as the iPhones. "Apple unequivocally condemns cyberattacks against journalists, human rights activists, and others seeking to make the world a better place. For over a decade, Apple has led the industry in security innovation and, as a result, security researchers agree iPhone is the safest, most secure consumer mobile device on the market," Apple's head of security engineering and architecture Ivan Kristic said in a statement. An iPhone software update from Apple could fix the exploit Security experts say the most effective way to stop malware is to keep devices patched with the latest software, but that requires the device maker to be aware of the bugs the attackers are using. If they are "0days," as NSO Group is accused of using, that means that Apple has not yet been able to fix the exploits. Once Apple fixes the exploit, it's no longer a 0day and users can protect themselves by updating to the latest version of the operating system. That suggests that NSO Group's software could stop working or lose the capability to target up-to-date phones as soon as Apple fixes the exploits — which it starts doing as soon as it learns of the attacks, Apple said. "Attacks like the ones described are highly sophisticated, cost millions of dollars to develop, often have a short shelf life, and are used to target specific individuals. While that means they are not a threat to the overwhelming majority of our users, we continue to work tirelessly to defend all our customers, and we are constantly adding new protections for their devices and data," Kristic said. iPhone privacy has been a key marketing strategy Apple has made security and privacy one of its key marketing strategies, arguing its control of the operating system, and the hardware that powers it, allows Apple to deliver a higher level of security and privacy than devices made by rivals. Apple said its security team is four times larger than it was five years ago and employees work to improve device security as soon as it finds new threats. Apple publishes security fixes for each software update on its website, cataloging them with industry-standard "CVE" numbers and crediting security researchers who find them. Amnesty International's report said NSO Group's software doesn't stay on an iPhone when it's rebooted, making it harder to confirm that a device has been infected. It also suggests users who are worried about being targeted may want to regularly reboot their devices. Amnesty International said it worked with international media groups to publish details about a handful of the phone numbers it found on the leaked list and the specific circumstances that led them to have been targeted by NSO software. Some American phone numbers were on the list but it's unclear if they were hacked, the Washington Post reported. An NSO Group spokesperson said the company will investigate all claims of misuse. "We would like to emphasize that NSO sells its technologies solely to law enforcement and intelligence agencies of vetted governments for the sole purpose of saving lives through preventing crime and terror acts. NSO does not operate the system and has no visibility to the data," the NSO spokesperson said. Other technology companies consider NSO Group's business unacceptable and a threat to their users' security.Last year, Facebook subsidiary WhatsApp sued NSO Group over an alleged WhatsApp hack. In a court filing from December as part of that case, third parties including Microsoft, Google, Cisco and others said NSO Group had violated U. S. laws and doesn't deserve immunity because it sells to foreign governments.Spyware Used to Snoop on Smartphones of Journalists, Activists, Report Says

It feels like the iPhone 12 only just came out, but the iPhone 13 may only be a few months away. The next-gen iPhone series isn’t expected to offer a major redesign — that came with the iPhone 12. But it will bring refinements that users have been asking for years. We’ve learned a ton about the next iPhone series over the past few months, thanks to all the leaks and rumors that have been coming out. In fact, we’ve seen leaks regarding the iPhone 13’s design, performance, display, camera, and more. At this point, we’re expecting four models, like on the iPhone 12. These will include the iPhone 13, iPhone 13 Mini, iPhone 13 Pro, and iPhone 13 Pro Max. Excited for the iPhone 13 series yet? Here’s everything we know about the new phone so far. The name “iPhone 13” isn’t set in stone — and in fact, many rumors, and a report from market research firm TrendForce, indicate that the device will end up being called the iPhone 12s. There may be good reasons for this. For starters, the next iPhone may be more of an incremental update, thus not really warranting a jump in naming. Some rumors suggest that the biggest update will be the addition of a 120Hz display — and that’s not even likely to come to all new iPhone models. Perhaps more important is the fact that Apple may want to avoid cultural associations with the number 13. In many parts of the world, including the U. S., the number 13 is considered unlucky. Of course, that doesn’t get around the use of the number 13 — but next year, Apple is rumored to skip from the iPhone 12s to the iPhone 14. The iPhone 12 received a major design overhaul, swapping out the rounded edges with flat ones. It’s a good look, and one that Apple isn’t expected to do away with for a while. That doesn’t mean we’ll see no design changes on the iPhone 13 — just that the design changes we do see may be minor. Perhaps the biggest tweak in design will come in the form of a smaller notch. Apple has been rumored to be working on ways to make the notch smaller for some time now, and those efforts may pay off this year. It’s unlikely the company will do away with the notch altogether, but even a smaller one will be helpful. Jon Prosser has corroborated the idea that the iPhone series will come with a smaller notch, publishing what he says are CAD renders showing the phone, with a smaller notch. Prosser’s renders also seem to show some differences in the design of the camera module. The non-Pro devices will likely keep a dual-camera system, but those cameras may be arranged diagonally instead of vertically. Rumors indicate that the entire series will get the larger camera sensors currently only on offer by the iPhone 12 Pro Max, and that may result in a camera bump that extends further from the back of the phone. It still shouldn’t matter for those that put their phone in a case. All iPhone models now offer an OLED display — so where could Apple take display tech next? Well, reports indicate that Apple will finally bring its ProMotion tech to the iPhone series — meaning that at least some models should offer a 120Hz refresh rate. This should make for a more responsive display, with smooth animations. Unfortunately, ProMotion is only expected to come to the “Pro” models. The tech could one day come to more affordable iPhones, but it may be some time. The iPhone 13 may also finally get an always-on display, which would allow it to always show certain information like the time and some notifications. Another update may come to the iPhone’s display — the return of Touch ID. Some rumors indicate that Apple will bring an in-display fingerprint sensor to the series. That will make it easier to unlock your phone when you’re wearing a mask. Still, most recent reports suggest that the feature will instead come to the 2022 iPhone series. And, when it does, it may not arrive under the display — instead, it may be included in the power button. As is tradition for a new iPhone series, the new devices will bring a few improvements to the iPhone’s performance. The entire series is expected to get Apple’s new A15 processor, which is expected to stick with a 5nm process. There have been conflicting rumors about the storage in the series. Early rumors, notably from Jon Prosser, indicated that the device might get storage options of up to 1TB — however, since then, a report from TrendForce has come out in conflict with that, instead suggesting that the iPhone 13 series will stick with the same storage options as the iPhone 12. The iPhone 12 series represented a big step forward for the iPhone’s camera, bringing larger camera sensors that perform better in low light. The iPhone 12 Pro Max in particular performed excellently in that respect. Apple is expected to bring the tech that powered the iPhone 12 Pro Max’s camera to lower-end iPhone models for the new series. It’s currently unclear if only the Pro models will get it, or if all models will get it. The two non-Pro models are expected to retain a dual-camera setup, with a main camera and an ultrawide camera. Like in the past, the two Pro models will likely get a triple camera system, adding a telephoto camera. The iPhone 12 series was delayed, likely due to production complications that came from the pandemic. The release of this year’s device, however, is likely to be back on track. Apple is expected to announce the series in mid-September. It will likely release them to the public after a short pre-order period in mid-to-late September. The overall price structure of the series is expected to remain the same. In other words, the iPhone 13 Mini will likely come in at around $700. The standard iPhone 13 will come in around $800, while the iPhone 13 Pro will cost $1,000, and the iPhone 13 Pro Max will cost $1,100.Two exciting new iPhone 13 features just leaked

Apple waited more than four years to follow up its original iPhone SE from 2016 with a second-generation model. It appears that the wait between the next two generations won’t be nearly as long. According to Digitimes, Apple is preparing to launch the third-generation iPhone SE in the first half of 2022. Industry sources claim that the iPhone SE 3 will feature the same A14 Bionic chip as the iPhone 12 series. It should also give chip probing specialists a boost. The sources explain that orders for the iPhone SE 3 will provide new business opportunities for chip probing specialists. Chip probing (or wafer probing) is a step in the semiconductor device fabrication process. During this step, each of the integrated circuits on the chip is tested for functional defects. Xintec, a subsidiary of chipmaker TSMC, will reportedly perform this task. Digitimes has a decidedly mixed track record, but this report does line up with Ming-Chi Kuo’s latest predictions. The analyst said last month that an updated version of the iPhone SE would launch in the first half of 2022. He also reported that the design of the iPhone SE 3 would be “roughly the same” as the second-generation iPhone SE. Aside from its faster processor, the iPhone SE 3 is also expected to support 5G. If so, it will undoubtedly be Apple’s cheapest 5G phone. Next year’s iPhone SE will supposedly stick with the 4.7-inch display as the previous version. Display Supply Chain Consultants CEO Ross Young said in a recent tweet that a substantial redesign is coming in 2023. According to Young, the iPhone SE 4 will have a 6.1-inch display and hole-punch cutout for the selfie camera. The notch has been present on every new iPhone other than the iPhone SE 2 since 2017. The notch is expected to stick around for the iPhone 13 series this year, but rumors are hinting at a more radical makeover for the iPhone in the years to come.New iPhone SE 3 leak reasserts that it will be released in the first half of 2022

A new report released yesterday gave us an alarming look into how the spyware sold by the Israeli surveillance company NSO Group was involved in targeted attacks against lawyers, journalists, opposition politicians, and activists across the world by different authoritarian governments. While NSO Group has been at the center of many similar reports in the past, the extent to which its Pegasus spyware enables unlawful surveillance and human rights abuses wasn't fully known. The firm continues to claim Pegasus is only used to "investigate terrorism and crime" without leaving a trace behind. However, the Forensic Methodology Report released over the weekend by over 17 media organizations in 10 countries with the technical support of Amnesty International’s Security Lab that carried out an in-depth forensic analysis of several devices from human rights defenders and journalists around the world, proves that is not true. Facebook Tried to Buy Surveillance Technology Used to Spy on Apple Users The list includes "hundreds of business executives, religious figures, academics, NGO employees, union officials and government officials, including cabinet ministers, presidents and prime ministers," the Guardian's report added. The list also includes numbers of over 180 journalists, including that of a freelance Mexican reporter, Cecilio Pineda Birto, who was murdered after his killers were able to locate him at a carwash. His phone was never recovered so forensic analysis isn't possible to fully confirm if his phone was infected with Pegasus. Forensics analysis of a small number of phones whose numbers appeared on the leaked list showed more than half had traces of Pegasus. Focusing on Android and iOS smartphones, the forensic records revealed zero-click attacks that require zero interaction from the target. One of the most alarming findings of this report is that even the most latest iPhones running the most latest iOS versions were successfully exploited. "Most recently, a successful 'zero-click' attack has been observed exploiting multiple zero-days to attack a fully patched iPhone 12 running iOS 14.6 in July 2021," Paris-based Forbidden Stories and Amnesty International's Forensic Methodology Report that was peer-reviewed by the Citizen Lab says. The forensic analysis has found evidence that NSO has been exploiting iMessage vulnerabilities to penetrate even the most latest devices running the latest version of iOS. While Apple continues to say that iPhone is the most secure consumer smartphone on the market, zero-click exploits aren't helping the consumer confidence in the product. Latest iOS 14.7 Beta Fixes a Bug That Permanently Diabled Wi-Fi on iPhone While in most cases, records are purged by the malware or cleaned after a reboot, one of the traces left behind by Pegasus in one particular case was suspicious redirects recorded in Safari’s browsing history, including a redirection to free247downloads[.]com domain. These redirections don't just happen when the target is using the browser but also when using other apps. In one case, when the target was previewing a link shared in his Twitter timeline, the service com.apple. SafariViewService was invoked to load a Safari WebView, and a redirect occurred. However, browsing redirections aren't the only indicators of compromise as the report has revealed various ways to detect possible traces left behind Pegasus. SMS messages delivering malicious links were the choice tactic of NSO Group to deliver its spyware a few years back. However, that seems to have changed to network injection as an "effective and cost-efficient attack vector for domestic use especially in countries with leverage over mobile operators." As for non-local targets, iOS vulnerabilities in iMessage and FaceTime are being exploited to attack foreign clients. In one case, Apple Music was also leveraged to deliver Pegasus. As of right now, Amnesty Intl believes that "Pegasus is currently being delivered through zero-click exploits which remain functional through the latest available version of iOS at the time of writing (July 2021)." AI has also seen a compromised iPhone XR (June 16, 2021) of an Indian journalist running iOS 14.6, which is the latest version, and an iPhone X (June 14, 2021) of an activist, also running iOS 14.6. Forensic analysis also showed that the spyware has now started to manipulate system databases to hide its traces and impede any research that may look into potential links between a victim and NSO's spyware. In one such effort, the Pegasus spyware is no longer maintaining persistence on iOS devices. While that means removal after reboots, it also shows the confidence NSO has in its attacking capabilities to repeatedly target the same client with success. Apple has today released iOS 14.7, likely fixing some of the vulnerabilities in iMessage, FaceTime, WebKit, and other corners of the OS. However, there are some fundamental flaws in how user security is currently being discounted by the biggest tech companies of the world. One former Apple employee told Washington Post that "it was difficult to communicate with security researchers who reported bugs in Apple products because the company’s marketing department got in the way." Outside researchers have also been outspoken about the lack of support from Apple as the company restricts access to iOS, making any investigations even more difficult. They have also complained about Apple's lack of communication and smaller bug bounty rewards when compared to other companies. The company has also significantly lacked in tracking the work of sophisticated attackers like the NSO Group, who always seem to be ahead of even the newest iPhones and software versions introduced by Apple. "For over a decade, Apple has led the industry in security innovation and, as a result, security researchers agree iPhone is the safest, most secure consumer mobile device on the market," Apple said today in response to these revelations. "Attacks like the ones described are highly sophisticated, cost millions of dollars to develop, often have a short shelf life, and are used to target specific individuals." The company insists, however, that it's "tirelessly" working to defend all of its customers. - Amnesty International has published its extensive technical research along with the "Mobile Verification Toolkit" to help identify potential traces of compromise. All indicators of compromise are available on its GitHub. Further reporting by Guardian.Spyware Used to Snoop on Smartphones of Journalists, Activists, Report Says

Today we’re taking a peek at the latest batch of iPhone 13 leaks and likely features to compare to what’s already likely in your pocket – or in your hand right now. If you JUST purchased an iPhone 12 or iPhone 12 Pro this year, you might want to turn away and pretend the iPhone 13 doesn’t exist, as it’ll be JUST different enough that you’ll wish you’d waited. If you purchased an iPhone 11 last year, or the year before that, the time to upgrade to an iPhone 13 might be at hand for you at the end of this year. The most recent rumor as of publish time for this report focuses on an always-on display for iPhone 13. This feature has been in play for the Apple Watch for a while – now a constantly aware display could be the star for the iPhone 13, too. Imagine such a feature on a flat panel, always watching, always waiting. At the same time, it’s now more unlikely than ever that the iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 Pro will skip the in-display fingerprint reader. No Touch ID for the masses, once again – not until Apple gets the tech so perfect that it’s basically impossible to screw up. Apple also appears to be pushing that notch up just a tiny bit, each year, until – we must assume – it’ll eventually disappear entirely. This would make the iPhone into nothing more than a display that you hold in your hand, wouldn’t it? Given the release of the iPhone 12 MagSafe Battery Pack, it’s safe to assume MagSafe is here to stay. The iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 Pro will very, very likely be released with MagSafe magnet/charging hardware and software support, right out the gate. It’s also possible that this release could point to reverse wireless charging for the iPhone 13 itself. The iPhone 13 Pro and Pro Max will get the most obvious camera upgrades of the bunch. That’s almost always true – make sure the biggest and the best are most obviously worth the most cash. With the iPhone 13 Pro, a new ultra-wide camera would be a significant upgrade worth the wait. Given the component rumors from China, it would appear that the iPhone 13 Pro will once again work with advanced 3D sensors – but even BETTER 3D sensors than before – imagine that! We’ve seen several reports on the color options for iPhone 13 over the past few months. It seems clear that Apple will follow with tradition for the iPhone 13 Pro lineup, delivering a relatively limited set of classic tones. Given the colors reported so far, it would seem that the iPhone 13 Pro will be largely metallic in tone: black, silver, rose gold, and sunset gold. The iPhone 13, on the other hand, could very well be delivered with a wider variety of colors than any base iPhone released before. Look to the iMac for inspiration with yellow, pink, and orange (new to the iPhone), as well as blue, green, red, silver, and purple. It’s likely the iPhone 13 event will take place in mid-September 2021. The iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 Pro release date will likely be in late September,2021, or early October,2021. It’s unlikely Apple will make any major adjustments to the price setup they have in place now, bumping the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro down in price until models are sold out and certain models take the place of devices currently priced at mid-tier price points to cover the whole market. It’s also rumored that there’ll be a new iPhone SE 3 ready to roll in the year 2022. So if you’re looking for that old-school feel in a compact device that’s priced accordingly, keep your fingers crossed. And don’t forget the lower priced giant iPhone tipped for 2022, too.iPhone 13 release date, leaks, price and news

During the Game Developers Conference (GDC) 2021, NVIDIA demonstrated its key RTX technologies, from RTXGI to RTXDI and DLSS, running on ARM architecture. One demo focused on MachineGames' Wolfenstein: Youngblood, while the other demo titled The Bistro portrayed a detailed urban scene set in France. Both demos were running on an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 GPU paired with a MediaTek Kompanio 1200 Arm processor. As a reminder, NVIDIA is attempting to purchase ARM, though the deal is still under investigation by regulators including the UK's Competition and Markets Authority (CMA). F1 2021 PC Performance Boosted up to 65% at 4K Resolution by NVIDIA DLSS This is the list of the RTX technologies included in these new demos: The RTXDI, NRD, and RTXMU SDKS for Arm with Linux and Chromium are already available, while those for DLSS and RTXGI will be released soon. The keenest readers will have noticed a brand new technology, the RTX Memory Utility or RTXMU. This is an open source SDK released today by NVIDIA. Its purpose is to reduce the memory consumption of acceleration structures used by applications under both DirectX Raytracing and Vulkan Ray Tracing APIs. The following comparisons show a significant memory footprint reduction on GeForce RTX graphics cards when RTXMU is enabled. Avengers PC Game Shows Visible Differences Between AMD FSR And NVIDIA DLSS Upscaling, Necromunda: Hired Gun Does Not NVIDIA also released a new Game Ready driver today, version 471.41. This driver is said to provide the best experience with Red Dead Redemption 2 and Chernobylite when using NVIDIA DLSS. The latter game, due to launch out of Steam Early Access on July 28th, gets one of the biggest performance boosts yet (up to 80%) when DLSS is enabled at 4K resolution. As usual with all NVIDIA Game Ready drivers, there are additional fixes only mentioned in the changelog document. Check them out in the below list.Nvidia brings ray tracing and DLSS to ARM-powered PCs – are cheaper gaming laptops coming?

Why you can trust Pocket-lint (Pocket-lint) - Samsung is expected to reveal the Galaxy Z Fold 3 alongside the Galaxy Z Flip 3 and a few other devices during Unpacked on 11 August 2021. Though Samsung itself hasn't confirmed any specifications of the Galaxy Z Fold 3, there have been an abundance of rumours, helping reveal what we can expect from the third generation - or fourth if you count the fixed version of the original - of the device. Here is how the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 is expected to compare to the Galaxy Z Fold 2, based on the speculation. Design Galaxy Z Fold 2: 159.2 x 128.2 x 6.9 (folded),159.2 x 68.0 x 13.8-16.8 (unfolded),282g Galaxy Z Fold 3: TBC Based on the rumours, and renders, it looks like the Galaxy Z Fold 2 and Galaxy Z Fold 3 will share similar design traits, but the Z Fold 3 will make a couple of refinements, including a more streamlined rear camera housing. The vertically-folding, bookstyle design is set to continue for the Z Fold 3 with a large display on the front, unfolding to a larger internal display, though there has been some talk of the Z Fold 3 adding waterproofing, as well as a tougher frame. Other reports have also suggested the Galaxy Z Fold 3 may offer an under-display front camera on the main display, which would see a more seamless design than the Galaxy Z Fold 2's centralised punch hole camera. Display Galaxy Z Fold 2: 6.23-inch cover display,7.6-inch main display,120Hz, HDR10+ Galaxy Z Fold 3: 6.23-inch cover display,7.56-inch LTPO main display,120Hz, HDR10+, S Pen The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 comes with a 6.23-inch external display on the front, that offers a resolution of 2260 x 816, and a 7.6-inch display when unfolded that has a resolution of 2208 x 1768 pixels. The foldable dynamic AMOLED display has HDR10+ certification and it offers a 120Hz refresh rate. The cover display on the outside of the device is AMOLED, but it has a standard 60Hz refresh rate. The Galaxy Z Fold 3 is rumoured to be coming with a 6.23-inch screen on the outside, offering a 2268 x 832 pixel resolution, while the inside display is claimed to be 7.56-inches with a resolution of 2208 x 1768 pixels, making it the same as its predecessor. A 120Hz refresh rate is expected on the main display again, as well as HDR10+ support and it's claimed to be a LTPO display. Where the two devices might differ however is the top of the main display. As mentioned, some rumours have suggested the main folding display might have an under-display camera compared to the punch hole camera on the Z Fold 2. There is still expected to be a punch hole camera on the front display of the Z Fold 3, like the Z Fold 2. It's also said the Z Fold 3 will offer support for the S Pen, like the Galaxy S21 Ultra. Hardware and specs Galaxy Z Fold 2: Snapdragon 865,12GB RAM,256/512GB storage,4500mAh Galaxy Z Fold 3: Snapdragon 888,12GB RAM,256/512GB storage,4380mAh? The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 runs on the Qualcomm Snapdragon 865 platform, with 12GB of RAM and a choice of 256GB or 512GB of storage. The device is 5G capable and there's a 4500mAh battery under the hood, which supports 25W fast charging,11W wireless charging and 4.5W reverse wireless charging. Rumours have been thin on the ground in terms of what hardware the Galaxy Z Fold 3 will offer, but we would expect to see the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888 or the 888 Plus, supported again by at least 12GB of RAM and 256GB storage. It is expected that the Z Fold 3 will be 5G capable again, though rumours have claimed the battery capacity will be a bit smaller than its predecessor. It's said it could be 4380mAh, which is the same as the original Fold. We'd expect support for fast charging, wireless charging and reverse wireless charging though. Cameras Galaxy Z Fold 2: Triple rear (12MP+12MP+12MP), two 10MP front Galaxy Z Fold 3: Triple rear (12MP+12MP+12MP),10MP front,16MP UPC The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 has a triple camera on the rear, made up of a 12-megapixel (f/1.8) main camera,12-megapixel telephoto sensor (f/2.4), and 12-megapixel (f/2.2) ultra-wide camera. On the front, there is a 10-megapixel punch hole front camera, and a 10-megapixel punch hole camera sits at the top of the main display too. According to rumours, the Z Fold 3 will come with a triple rear camera made up of 12-megapixel main camera,12-megapixel telephoto sensor, and 12-megapixel ultra-wide camera too. There are claims Samsung will offer Phase Detection Autofocus on all three lenses however, meaning we should get fast, accurate focusing. There's said to be a single 10-megapixel punch hole front camera on the cover display, along with a 16-megapixel under-display camera on the main display, the latter of which would make up the main difference between the Z Fold 2 and Z Fold 3. Conclusion Based on the speculation, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 will offer some design refinements compared to its predecessor, largely in terms of the camera housing on the rear. It should also offer a hardware upgrade in terms of processor, some camera improvements to the rear cameras, as well as possibly the addition of an under-display camera on the main display. Battery capacity could reduce compared to the Z Fold 2 and the display specifications appear to be remaining the same, except for the idea that the Z Fold 3 will support the S Pen.

When the Poco F3 GT gets unveiled later this week, it is claimed to set a new high in terms of the price-to-features ratio in the mid-range segment. A new leak sheds some light on what it could be priced at, and how it could undercut the OnePlus Nord 2. Anuj Sharma already confirmed that the Poco F3 GT will be priced around Rs 30,000 in India and explaned how it is a segment that is in need for some more competition and disruption. Its closest competitor will be the OnePlus Nord 2, which will be unveiled on the previous day with similar specifications and an expected price tag of close to Rs 35,000 for the top variant. Tipster Debayan Roy aka Gadgetsdata believes that the Poco F3 GT price in India will be Rs 28,999 or Rs 29,999 for the base 8GB+128GB variant and Rs 31,999 or Rs 32,999 for the top 12GB+256GB model. At that price, it will be the most premium smartphone from Poco to date, and will compete with the likes of the OnePlus Nord 2, iQoo 7, Xiaomi Mi 11X, Realme X7 Max and the Oppo Reno 6. As always, we’d suggest waiting for official information and not base your decisions based on leaks, but looking at the positioning and official wording, we could be surprised if it’s too far from this suggested pricing. There are also likely to be some upgrade offers for existing Poco users who had been waiting for a high-end flagship since 3 years. The Poco F3 GT will be a rebranded Redmi K40 Gaming Edition from China with a MediaTek Dimensity 1200 chipset with UFS 3.1 storage, LPDDR5 RAM and 5G capabilities. It has a 6.67-inch E4 AMOLED screen with 120Hz refresh rate and 480Hz touch sampling rate as well as dual stereo speakers. There’s a triple-camera setup on the rear, a large 5,000mAh battery and support for 67W fast charging.OnePlus Nord 2 Specifications, Colour Options Tipped Ahead of India Launch

The new Steam Deck could replace your Nintendo Switch — as long as you’re willing to part ways with some iconic games, that is. Although clearly more powerful than Nintendo’s handheld, Steam just doesn’t have the same kind of first-party Nintendo exclusives that make the Switch such a popular system. Luckily there are some fitting alternatives available on Steam. Plenty of games on the platform draw inspiration from Nintendo’s greatest hits and improve on them in some cases. If you want to ditch your Nintendo Switch for the Steam Deck, we have seven PC games that can replace some of the largest Nintendo Switch exclusives. If you’re all about tending to your island in Animal Crossing: New Horizons, we have good news. One of the best farming simulators is available on Steam. Although Stardew Valley takes more inspiration from the bygone Harvest Moon series, there are a lot of overlaps with Animal Crossing: New Horizons. You arrive on your grandfather’s old farmland with nothing more than a few rusty tools to your name. From there, you are tasked with journeying into town to pick up supplies, talking with the locals to uncover new opportunities, and of course, tending to your crops. Stardew Valley isn’t exactly Animal Crossing: New Horizons, but it can certainly scratch the itch. And just like Nintendo’s first-party title, you can easily sink hundreds of hours into the experience. Paper Mario: The Origami King had some issues, not the least of which were a tedious battle system and little RPG progression. The Paper Mario franchise may be a shell of what it used to be, but others are carrying the torch forward. Bug Fables: The Everlasting Sapling is not only an alternative to Paper Mario on Steam, it’s actually a better game in a number of ways. Just like Paper Mario, you control a party of three characters through a simplified turn-based RPG. Battles are kept interesting with button prompts corresponding to attacks, and you can swap the position of your party members to attack from different angles. Critically, Bug Fables maintains the charm of the Paper Mario series and the systems that made the first few releases so special. Admittedly, you’re generally giving up some quality with the games on this list, but that’s not the case with Bug Fables. It’s an homage and continuation of the Paper Mario series, which Nintendo has seemingly abandoned. A lot of the joy in Super Mario Maker 2 is designing your own levels with Nintendo’s iconic environments and character models. If you’re more interested in the building aspect, though, Levelhead makes a great substitute. It’s a game where you can build your own 2D platforming levels and play an endless stream of them from others. Instead of Mario, you play as an employee at the Bureau of Shipping, the galaxy’s go-to package delivery service. Your job is to train your own GR-18 delivery robot by putting them through a string of LEVELS (Limited Exercises for eValutating employEe Limitations) that you design. Although it lacks the Mario polish, Levelhead is still a great platformer-builder. The game even includes cross-save, so you can easily carry your design from your Steam Deck to a full gaming PC. Nexomon: Extinction is like an alternate reality where Nintendo continued to develop 2D, sprite-based Pokémon games. The game adds a modern finish and a whole lot of color to the Pokémon formula, tasking you with journeying across a varied landscape in search of every Nexomon available. Lapsed Pokémon fans will appreciate the old-school approach, but also the various difficulty and gameplay adjustments. Catching a Nexomon, for example, involves a timed series of button inputs, not just a random number generator. Similarly, wild Nexomon scale with your level, so every battle feels like a real challenge. With 381 Nexomon to catch and several unique quests to uncover, Extinction plays the role of a Pokémon game well. There are a lot of games like Breath of the Wild, and many of them are available on PC. The closest is undoubtedly Ubisoft’s Immortals Fenyx Rising. Although the game isn’t available on Steam, it should still work on the Steam Deck thanks to Valve’s Proton compatibility layer. Immortals Fenyx Rising borrows the art style and some of the mechanics from Breath of the Wild. You traverse a vast open world where you can climb to overcome obstacles, shoot down fruit to heal yourself, and dive into dungeons to unlock and upgrade your abilities. It borrows a lot from Ubisoft’s Assassin’s Creed franchise, too, including a fluid combat system and stealth mechanics. Short of emulation, it’s impossible to play a game as revolutionary as Breath of the Wild on your Steam Deck. Immortals Fenyx Rising gets close, though. Brawlhalla is an arena fighter for up to eight players, and it’s available on Steam. Like Super Mario Maker 2, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate relies on its roster of iconic characters to sell the experience. If you’re looking to beat up some buddies through a wide variety of arenas, however, Brawlhalla does the trick. Unlike Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Brawlhalla is a free-to-play fighter with an evolving roster of characters. Free players have access to the Legend Rotation, which cycles nine characters from the roster into the free-to-play mode every week. Playing online, you can earn gold to unlock the other characters or purchase them all for $20. Although Brawlhalla doesn’t feature Nintendo characters, it brings in notable fighters from other franchises from time to time. Right now, for example, the game features the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles as playable characters. You can’t find a Fire Emblem: Three Houses alternative on Steam in a single game, but you can in two games. Wargroove gets at the heart of the turn-based, tactical combat that makes the Fire Emblem franchise so exciting, and Persona 4 Golden offers all of the life-sim mechanics you could never need. If you just want a single replacement, Wargroove is your best bet. It’s a top-down tactics game in the style of the Advance Wars series, where you control a small list of units on a grid-based battlefield. It doesn’t feature permadeath or the weapon triangle, which are both tentpoles of the Fire Emblem series. However, it’s still an excellent strategy game that can fill a Three Houses- sized hole. Persona 4 Golden is actually better than Three Houses, at least when it comes to the life-sim mechanics. As long as you’re willing to trade turn-based tactics for a turn-based RPG, Persona 4 Golden provides a dense, enriching experience where the bonds you create with other characters go beyond the buffs they give you in battle.Steam Deck shouldn’t suffer from Nintendo Switch’s biggest problem, says Valve

Ubisoft just announced its latest installment in the Tom Clancy series, the free-to-play shooter “XDefiant,” which will be arriving on Google Stadia. “Coming soon,” Tom Clancy’s XDefiant will be a first-person shooter title that’s free-to-play and takes place within the universe built out by other games in the series. Players take on the role of “Defiants” who have customizable factions, traits, abilities, and “ultras.” Ubisoft says the list of Defiants will grow over time, too. There’s also a selection of different weapons (primary and secondary) as well as attachments. Games are played in a 6×6 arena and “a large pool of uniquely designed maps in rotation.” Tom Clancy’s XDefiant is a free-to-play, fast-paced, first-person shooter. It combines intense gunplay with personalized loadouts and specialized factions as teams of gunfighters, called Defiants, battle for domination. Developed by Ubisoft San Francisco, Tom Clancy’s XDefiant features playable factions from the Tom Clancy universe and beyond, each with unique abilities. Pair that with an arsenal of primary and secondary weapons, attachments, and devices to complete your loadout, and go to battle with a variety of maps and modes. Being one of the biggest supporters of cloud gaming, it comes as absolutely no surprise that Ubisoft is bringing XDefiant to Google Stadia, Amazon Luna, and Nvidia GeForce Now. It’s unclear if all three platforms will get a day-and-date launch, but it seems likely given the announcement. It also seems reasonable to expect that the game will be fully free-to-play on Stadia akin to Destiny 2, but that’s not yet confirmed.

Months later than expected, we know the Huawei P50 launch date - as revealed by company CEO Richard Yu, it's set to show up on July 29 along with some other devices. Via a post on Chinese social media platform Weibo, Richard Yu has confirmed that launch date. So we don't have long to wait to see the Huawei P50, though we don't know its release date yet. Yu also added that, as with previous Huawei P phones, photography is the main focus of the new line, saying “The road forward has no end, this time we surpass ourselves in the field of imaging again. On July 29th, the #HuaweiP50 series will soon release a new mobile imaging technology pioneered in the industry, and the new era of mobile imaging will set sail, so stay tuned!”. Clearly the Huawei P50 isn't coming alone, hence the reference to a 'series'. We'd expect a P50 Pro and P50 Pro Plus, if 2020's range of devices is an example to follow, with maybe a Lite device as well. Huawei is evidently trying to make a comeback after restrictions placed by the US government affected the software and components the company could use. Earlier in 2021 it launched HarmonyOS, its brand-new Android-rivaling operating system, with a few devices running it. The P50 handsets will almost definitely be the first HarmonyOS smartphones. We don't know too many of the Huawei P50 specs or features just yet. However, rumors suggest that with this range, Huawei will introduce a 1-inch Sony sensor in the main camera that was recently seen on the Sharp Aquos R6 and Leitz Phone 1 from Leica. Powering the device could be a Huawei-made Kirin 9000 chipset, however, it could also have a modified Snapdragon 888 chipset according to some inside sources. That said, the Snapdragon chipset that could power the phone is expected to be a 4G-only one, since the US sanctions limit 5G component supplies to Huawei. For more information about the Huawei P50, we'll have to wait until launch - but since that's so near, we won't be waiting long. Stay tuned until July 29, and we'll bring you all the need-to-know information about the new phones.The Huawei P50 series finally has a launch date - Android Authority

And finally, the Ola electric scooter gets delivered to your doorstep once it is ready to be shipped. The company has not talked about the features such as riding range, charging speed of the Ola electric Scooter for now. However, reports are doing the rounds that the scooter’s range could be around 150 km, with a top speed of 100km/hr, on a single charge. Apart from this, the e-scooter is said to feature twin LED headlamps and a large under-seat boot space. Simultaneously, Ola claims that space on the scooter will be class-leading, along with a range and price that will appeal to buyers.

While the company is yet to officially announce the Ola electric scooter launch in India, rumours are rife that it could happen by July-end or in the first week of August. “Ola may initially focus on doorstep delivery, while later adopt a hybrid distribution strategy by tapping into digital sales and dealership networks,” sources told CNBC TV18. The deposit paid for reserving Ola Scooter is refundable. You can cancel the order anytime and get the money back from Ola. Ola Scooters are made in India, at the Ola Future factory, in Krishnagiri, Tamil Nadu. Ola claims that the f actory will be the world’s largest electric two-wheeler factory. Ola will share details for the test ride of Ola Scooter very soon.Realme GT Master Explorer Edition Price Leaked Ahead of Launch: Expected Specifications, Features

Facebook-owned WhatsApp on Monday rolled out a new feature where the users can join a group video or voice call even after its started, and you see the participants in a video call screen the way you see on various communication apps. WhatsApp said that the 'Joinable calls' reduce the burden of answering a group call as it starts, and brings the spontaneity and ease of in-person conversations to group calling on WhatsApp. If someone in your group misses a call when the phone rings, they can still join whenever they like. You can also drop-off and re-join so long as the call is still ongoing. Group calling on WhatsApp currently allows up to eight participants to video call with each other. "We've also created a call info screen so you can see who is already on the call, and who has been invited but not yet joined. If you hit 'ignore' you can join later from the calls tab in WhatsApp," the company said in a statement. When you receive a group video call, the incoming WhatsApp group video call screen will show the participants currently on the call, and the first contact listed will be the participant that added you, the company informed. Group video call history will appear in the 'CALLS' tab. You can tap the call history to view the individual participants from the call, according to WhatsApp. For over 400 million users in India, WhatsApp video calls are an easiest medium to connect to their loved ones especially in the social distancing times.WhatsApp Now Lets You Join a Ongoing Group Call After It Began

No one likes ads — pop-up or otherwise — intruding on their online experience of reading or video viewing, but ads are everywhere on the internet. The only way to shield yourself from them is to install a special ad-blocker, software that detects and disables ads before they reach you. Ad blockers deflect annoying videos, graphics, and text ads that appear on your Android device while using apps or browsing websites. Ad-blocking is controversial, which is why Google has removed specific ad-blocking apps from the Play Store. Google’s business model is built on ads, so encouraging users to block ads is counterintuitive. But the question goes beyond whether ads are objectively good or bad. For many sites, ads are a financial lifeline — the difference between running a site and shutting it down. Sure, pop-ups can feel intrusive, but it’s kind of like over-the-air TV — it’s free, but the ads pay for the time. Installing an ad-blocker app on your Android device means you are likely affecting the livelihood of those who run the sites you enjoy. If you’ve thought about it and still want to install an ad blocker, we have a few suggestions for the best ones. Our selection also includes ad detectors and ad-blocker browsers, as they all are designed to cut down on ad viewing. Not on Android? Have a look at our favorite ad blockers for iPhone and the best ad blockers for Chrome. AdAway is a free, open-source ad-blocking app for Android, available for rooted and non-rooted devices. AdAway blocks ads using hosts files (text files that map host names to IP addresses) from various locations and combines them automatically. You can whitelist or blacklist additional domains or add a new hosts file. AdAway requires root access because the hosts file is in the system partition. With non-rooted devices, the app uses the VPN feature to block outgoing connections to ads and trackers. You can also download predefined ads and blocker lists as hosts files from within the app. Version 5 works with Android 8.0 Oreo and higher. Version 4 works with Android 4.1 Jelly Bean and higher. F-Droid AdLock lets you easily run apps and browse online without interruption from annoying flashing ads by shutting down pop-ups, banners, and auto-play. AdLock prevents phishing by blocking all suspicious, unsolicited requests, which helps to secure your personal data. When AdLock is enabled on your Android phone, it will also help to protect it from bugs and spyware. You can restrict internet access to specific apps or stay connected only when the screen is on so you never go over data limits. You can install AdLock and leverage its features without root access. AdLock The popular Adblock Plus is a free, open-source browser extension that lets you customize your browsing experience. It works on both rooted and non-rooted devices to block ads and disable tracking so you can choose what you want to see by using filter lists. Filter lists are sets of rules that tell the browser what to block. You can choose from pre-made, external filter lists or create your own (English only). Many ads have built-in tracking, and some even contain malware, so Adblock Plus also provides tracking and malware protection by default, and you can add additional tracking and malware filter lists. AdBlock Plus AdGuard’s browser extension blocks ads throughout your mobile system, including video ads and ads within your apps, browsers, games, and on any website. Dozens of ad filters are available and are updated regularly. With AdGuard, you and your private data are safe from online trackers and analytics systems that may try to steal data while you’re surfing the web. Fewer ads loaded means more bandwidth saved. A wide range of settings and an apps management tool help you customize the filtering. AdGuard With AppBrain Ad Detector, you get the lowdown on all potential spyware and ads for apps installed on your phone, including push notifications, desktop icon spam ads, and apps with privacy issues. It pinpoints adware so you can remove the offending apps. It alerts you to which apps have permissions to access your location, contacts, messages, or accounts, or which ones can use services that cost you money, and it helps you remove them. It tells you which ad networks are embedded in apps, such as Admob, Millennial Media, ChartBoost, TapJoy, and others, and which have push ads. It also detects whether apps have SDKs like Facebook, VKontakte, or Twitter. Built-in developer tools detect libraries like Google Analytics, Flurry Analytics, Google Play in-app billing, Android support library, ACRA, Phonegap, and more. Google Play This private browser with Adblock provides an ad-free web experience and private browsing service and warns you of potential malware and adware. Since it is not a classic ad-blocker but rather a browser that houses an ad blocker, you can find it on the Google Play Store. The browser blocks video ads, banners ads, and pop-ups. It removes ads and tracking from streaming video, blocks pop-up ads, and prevents browser redirects to ad-heavy sites. It also cleans up banner ads for a less cluttered browsing experience. As a private browser, it blocks ad cookies from third parties via the incognito mode. Your browsing history will not be saved, and you can also add a password to this browser. You can lock your private browser with a password, protect your privacy, and automatically update the Adblock filter list. Google PlayBest Android phones to buy for 2021

Last week, Valve announced the Steam Deck portable PC and revealed that “preorders” would start on Friday. Valve did not reveal the Steam Deck’s actual release date. It did reveal that the console would be available in December to those who preorder. The Steam Deck “preorder” involves paying $5 upfront, which will be put towards the purchase of the chosen model. It turns out that a significant number of buyers preordered the Switch OLED alternative. The Steam Deck quikckly sold out, with ship dates slipping all the way to summer 2022. Valve attempted to prevent scalpers from hoarding the initial Steam Deck supply and set a specific rule for preorders. Only Steam account holders who had made at least one purchase before June 2021 could order the Steam Deck initially. For 48 hours starting last Friday, people with brand new Steam accounts were locked out of the ordering process. Even so, Valve’s servers crumbled under the load. Steam Deck registration opened in North America in Europe, and many people found themselves unable to preorder the console. Valve did not reveal any Steam Deck release date information during its announcement. It’s unclear how many units it might have on hand in December and whether the current chip shortage will impact its ability to meet demand in any way. Valve sells three Steam Deck versions, with the cheapest one starting at $399. That’s slightly more expensive than the new Switch OLED and comes with 64GB of onboard storage. The 256GB and 512GB models feature NVMe storage and sell for $529 and $649, respectively. The company did not disclose preorder figures either, as ship dates started slipping. But an issue in the site’s code allowed people to find actual preorder figures. In the first 90 minutes, Valve sold over 110,000 Steam Deck units with NVMe storage. Most of the sales came from North America, according to what people could find online before Valve patched the problem. After about half an hour of errors, I managed to preorder the 256GB version in Europe. The ship date had already slipped to the first quarter of 2021 by then. Assuming everyone goes through with their purchase, my Steam Deck’s release date would be sometime between January and March 2021. The estimates are even worse for North America, where the 512GB model is expected to be available in the third quarter of 2022. That’s according to estimates on Sunday. Preordering the most expensive Steam Deck right now means you’d have to wait about a year to get it. The cheaper models will ship between April and June 2022. The delivery estimates for all three models remain at Q1 2022 for Europe. One of Valve’s other rules is that you’ll have to buy the Steam Deck unit you registered for. You can’t change your mind while you wait for Valve to start processing orders. That said, scalpers are already listing Steam Deck preorders online for significant markups. That’s even though we’re months away from the console’s release. It’s unclear whether Valve will have any extra stock to sell on the launch date now that the console is sold out. But ship dates might improve as buyers ditch their place in line. Valve will refund your $5 to your bank account (within 30 days) or in Steam credit.Steam Deck is already being scalped on eBay for up to twice the price

Zoom yesterday announced plans buy cloud call center service provider Five9 in a $14.7 billion all-stock transaction. Subject to shareholder approval, the acquisition is expected to close in the first half of 2022. The acquisition could allow the to hedge its video bets after 18 months of unprecedented growth as both companies and individual users turned to the videoconferencing platform to stay in touch with co-workers, family, and friends. While the need for videoconferencing is unlikely to go anywhere, even with offices re-opening, Zoom appears to be looking to capitalize on its growing customer base by expanding services. Steve Blood, a VP Analyst at Gartner, raised questions about the move, noting that Five9 and Zoom operate in completely different markets. He sees a "disconnect" between the two companies and a potentially risky acquisition. “We recognize that a part of the market that Zoom targets is an IT leader in a mid-size business or smaller that has responsibility for all communication," Blood said. "In that segment, it is very feasible that there will be a responsibility for buying contact center technology. “However, when you look at Five9’s business, they focus on a smaller end of the market and a lot of their business is dealing directly with CX leaders who, from our experience, have nothing to do with enterprise collaboration whatsoever.," Blood said. "That's where the disconnect is for us." Zoom CEO and founder of Zoom Eric Yuan, in a statement, pointed to the push for "hybrid" workplaces, and said Five9 would position Zoom to grow. "The trend towards a hybrid workforce has accelerated over the last year, advancing contact centers’ shift to the cloud and increasing demand by customers for customized and personalized experiences," Yuan said. "Today, enterprises not only need to enable customers to engage via their preferred channel, they need to empower their teams to accomplish more, and do so with empathy, purpose, and connection. We truly believe that together, we will enable customers to reimagine the way they do business and deliver exceptional results." Five9 is slated to become an operating unit of Zoom after the deal closes. Yuan said earlier this year that Zoom would be looking to expand its range of communications services. Although videoconferencing has remained its mainstay, the company has also launched office collaboration products including Zoom Phone, a cloud phone system, and conference software, Zoom Rooms. In an interview before the Five9 acquisition was announced, Magnus Falk, CIO Advisor at Zoom, said Zoom Phone is becoming an increasingly popular offering, with the company selling 500,000 units in the last quarter. By comparison, it took seven successive quarters to sell 1 million units. Rowan Trollope, the CEO of Five9, put it this way in a statement: “Businesses spend significant resources annually on their contact centers, but still struggle to deliver a seamless experience for their customers. It has always been Five9’s mission to make it easy for businesses to fix that problem and engage with their customers in a more meaningful and efficient way. Joining forces with Zoom will provide Five9’s business customers access to best-of-breed solutions, particularly Zoom Phone, that will enable them to realize more value and deliver real results for their business." Blood said he will be looking closely for several things to see whether the acquisition ultimately works to Five9’s benefit. “We will be looking for continuity of leadership, continuity of people in the product development space, and seeing that they can continue offering the things that [Five9 has] been previously delivering,” Blood said. He argued that a name change or a rebranding effort that moves Five9 toward the collaboration space could be a turn off for customers. Five9 regularly scores highly in terms of customer satisfaction, Blood said, and has been rewarded with good ratings and solid growth. “If the whole Zoom thing becomes more of an emphasis, and Rowen [Trollope] gets dragged off, that loss of momentum could be the real turning point,” he said. The contact center-as-a-service space is growing, Blood said; it’s up 38% a year overall, with some vendors growing more than 100% — a level of growth he’s never seen in 30 years. “If the Five9 business is able to focus on building out and strengthening its capabilities in customer experience, and where there is an opportunity, build something that would enable them to sell to small and mid-sized businesses as well, that would be good. If they lose that focus that’s gotten them to where they are today with CX leaders, then it's not going to be a great thing,” Blood said.Zoom snaps up cloud call center firm Five9

Why you can trust Pocket-lint (Pocket-lint) - Apple Watch didn't really focus on health when it first launched in 2014. It was more about fashion, notifications and apps on your wrist - offering a digital alternative to the analogue world that dominated before. Fast forward six years and the space Apple's smartwatch occupies is vastly different. The Apple Watch Series 6 is very much a health and wellbeing device with a number of features, including an ECG feature and an irregular rhythm notification feature. Here we explain what the Apple Watch heart features are, how they work, what they mean, and why you might want to use them. What are the Apple Watch heart features? ECG Irregular rhythm notification The ECG and irregular rhythm notification features were first announced in September 2018, with the ECG feature specific to the Apple Watch Series 4, though it is also available on the Watch Series 5 and the Watch Series 6. The irregular rhythm notification feature checks heart rhythms in the background every two hours and sends a notification if an irregular heart rhythm is detected. It is available to all Apple Watch users with a Series 1 or later. Apple The ECG feature meanwhile, is specific to the Apple Watch Series 4, Series 5 and Series 6 and allows users to perform ECG tests from the comfort of their homes rather requiring a local GP or hospital to take a reading. For those not familiar with the term, an ECG - short for an electrocardiogram - is a way of measuring the timings and strength of electrical signals that make up your heartbeat. By reading an ECG, a doctor can see your heart's rhythm and any irregularities, intervening if required. How do you get the ECG feature on your Apple Watch? Apple Watch Series 4,5 or 6 required for ECG The ECG and irregular rhythm notification features are available to Apple Watches running Watch OS 5.2 or later. As mentioned, the irregular rhythm notification feature is available to other Apple Watch models, from Series 1 and newer, while the ECG feature is unique to the Series 4, Series 5 and Series 6 models. What do you need to take an ECG with Apple Watch? ECG app Apple Watch Series 4,5 or 6 Supported country The ECG app is available in the US, Chile, Puerto Rico, Guam, the US Virgin Islands, the UK, New Zealand, and 19 countries within Europe. Aside from the app, you'll also need the Apple Watch Series 4, Series 5 or Series 6, an iPhone (iPhone 5 or above) and the ability to sit still while you do the test. Apple How to set up the Apple Watch ECG app iOS 12.2 and WatchOS 5.2 Open Health app Make sure you are running iOS 12.2 or later and WatchOS 5.2 or later, after which you can access the ECG functionality in the Health app on your phone. If you're doing this for the first time, you should see a prompt asking you to set it up. If you don't, go to Health Data > Heart > Electrocardiogram (ECG). The setup is incredibly easy and asks for some minimum details, such as age. That's because performing an ECG under the age of 22 isn't recommended. Once set up, you can open the Apple Watch ECG app and begin taking an ECG. How to take an ECG on the Apple Watch Open ECG app on Apple Watch Series 4,5 or 6 Hold index finger on Digital Crown Wait 30 seconds Once you've set up the app you can take an ECG whenever and wherever you want. The beauty of having the device on you all the time is that you don't have to book an appointment with the doctor. Simply open the ECG app on the Watch, rest your arm on something to reduce movement, and then hold your index finger (from the arm that doesn't have the watch on it) on the Digital Crown. You don't have to press the Digital Crown. It's all about making a looped connection for the system to monitor what's happening. Apple The test takes around 30 seconds to complete, and you'll see a representation of your heart rate on the screen while you do it. When complete, the Apple Watch will give you an instant result, along with the ability to record any symptoms you were feeling at the time. Meanwhile on your iPhone, you'll get a notification with a link straight to the report so you can see further detail or share the results with your doctor. What do the Apple Watch ECG results mean? Once you've finished capturing your EGC reading, you'll get one of four messages. Sinus rhythm means everything is as expected. Atrial fibrillation means there is an irregular pattern detected. Low or high heart rate is the third potential result, while Inconclusive means the test can't determine the end result. Can you share your Health information with your doctor? Of course. To do this, go into the Health App > Browse > Tap Heart > Electrocardiogram (ECG) > ECG result. You can then export the details via a PDF to share with your doctor. You decide how that information is shared. Apple doesn't share that information with anyone else like a third-party insurance company, other apps, or even your own computer. Is it as good as an ECG in a doctor's office? Nobody is saying that the Apple Watch ECG is going to be good as or replace a hospital quality electrocardiograph machine, but that's not the idea. A traditional hospital ECG is often referred to as a "12-lead" machine because it uses 10 different electrodes to provide information on 12 different areas of the heart. In contrast, the Apple Watch is akin to a single lead machine. The documentation refers to the Apple Watch ECG not being a substitute for actual medical care at every opportunity. Support documents from Apple state that the "user is not intended to interpret or take clinical action based on the device output without consultation of a qualified healthcare professional." And furthermore, "the feature is not intended to replace traditional methods of diagnosis or treatment". Apple To get the device cleared by the relevant regulatory bodies in the US and Europe, Apple had to provide details of a clinical test of around 600 people, half of whom had atrial fibrillation. Apple watchOS 7: All the key new Apple Watch features explored By Maggie Tillman · 19 July 2021 The ECG app was unable to read about 10 per cent of the subjects, but for the others, it was very accurate, according to Apple. The company said "it caught more than 98 percent of people with atrial fibrillation, and correctly told people that they didn't have the condition 99.6 percent of the time." Apple also carried out another substantial test involving the accuracy of Apple Watch's heart data – the Apple Heart Study with Stanford University, for example, monitored atrial fibrillation, but not the ECG functionality. Should Apple give people the ability to do an ECG at home? Apple has clearly been encouraged by Apple Watch's various successes as a personal medical device. Indeed, it's done a better job at this than any other device before it. The detection of high heart rates has been especially popular and there have been a few cases where the Apple Watch has probably saved lives because it has prompted people to seek medical help. Ivor Benjamin, president of the American Heart Association was on stage with Apple when the company announced the feature in September 2018. Benjamin said: "In my experience, people often report symptoms that are absent during their medical visits." He added: "[This] is game-changing, especially when evaluating atrial fibrillation - an irregular and rapid heart rate that can increase a person's risk of stroke, heart failure and other heart-related complications". Apple In the UK, Professor Martin Cowie, professor of Cardiology at Imperial College London, based at Royal Brompton Hospital, and chair of the Digital Health Committee of the European Society of Cardiology, has also sung the new ECG feature's capabilities. "Today, there are around 1.5 million people in the UK living with atrial fibrillation, the most common heart rhythm problem, but a third of these people may be unaware of this. An on-demand ECG and pulse check could be a powerful tool in our ongoing quest to manage heart health better across Europe. The opportunity for innovation to optimise patient care is huge and this is a great step forward." What is atrial fibrillation? Atrial fibrillation (or Afib/AF) is where the upper chambers of the heart beat irregularly, increasing the risk of stroke and heart failure. The irregular rhythm notification feature will check heart rhythms every two hours in the background and send a notification if an irregular heart rhythm is detected. If an irregular heart rhythm is detected, the Apple Watch will do five further tests in quick succession to see if the outcome is still positive. If it is positive, those using an Apple Watch Series 4,5 or 6 device will be prompted to do an ECG reading. Those using an Apple Watch Series 1 - 3 and the Watch SE will suggest you contact your local GP. Apple Where does Apple Watch ECG work? Rather than roll out the ECG feature to all Apple Watch users, Apple wants it to only be available in regions "cleared" for a medical device. Because of that, the ECG feature - which works on Apple Watch Series 4,5, and 6 and requires iPhone 5s or later on iOS 12.2 or later - isn't available worldwide, though it's getting there quickly. The watchOS 7.6 update (the sixth major update to watchOS 7, which released in September 2020) brought support for the ECG app and irregular heart rhythm notifications to 30 additional regions. Apple's ECG feature is available in the US, UK, and around 90 other regions and countries globally. You can see the full list of supported areas here. What can't the heart features do? The Apple Watch heart features do not detect a heart attack, blood clots, a stroke or other heart-related conditions including high blood pressure, congestive heart failure, high cholesterol or other forms of arrhythmia. What are the risks? There are a few caveats, not least that "the ECG app is not intended for use by people under 22 years old [or…] individuals previously diagnosed with AFib". You also need to be still for the ECG to work – "these data are only captured when the user is still." Equally, "it is not intended to provide a notification on every episode of irregular rhythm suggestive of AFib and the absence of a notification is not intended to indicate no disease process is present". It's a guide, not a 99.9 percent accurate test. Apple That's key, because some will feel completely assured by the ECG app and not seek appropriate care: "Over-reliance on device output leading to failure to seek treatment despite acute symptoms or discontinuing or modifying treatment for chronic heart condition". The FDA ruling also points out that "false positive resulting in additional unnecessary medical procedures" could be an issue with the device, resulting in people going for actual ECGs that don't need to happen.

Luna is Amazon’s new service that was announced last year at the company’s product launch event. At a glance, it’s an answer to options like Stadia, GeForce NOW, Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, and Shadow. What exactly is Luna, though? Should you care about the service and is it worth your time? Maybe one of the other cloud gaming services is a better fit? In this guide we’ll walk you through exactly what Luna is and what it offers, so you can make the decision on whether or not you should be interested in it and give it a try. Luna is a cloud gaming service that is offered by Amazon. It was announced September 24,2020, and is the company’s entry into the space that already contains major players like, GeForce NOW, Shadow, and Cloud Gaming with Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. Amazon was rumored to be entering the cloud gaming space, but little was known about it back then. Now, a lot more detail has been shared about it. Including what it costs, what games you can play, and where you can play them. There’s still a lot about Luna that Amazon is changing or adding. But now it’s possible to use the service. The idea is to offer people a slightly different model for cloud gaming than what’s currently available from competitors. Luna will offer a variety of different games from publishers you know and love. Some of them will be new and some of them will be a bit older. The whole point of Luna, much like with Xbox Game Pass Ultimate and Stadia, is that you don’t need to download games. There’s no having to wait for games to install. you simply find a game you want to play and you launch it. Boom. Done. If that sounds appealing to you, then you may want to consider keeping an eye on Luna and signing up to request access to it. Like Amazon says, Luna has something for everyone when it comes to games. As for what games are available, there’s actually a fairly wide variety of titles now. You’ll some of the biggest games of the last few years as well as some old favorites. Resident Evil VII: Biohazard – Gold Edition for example is available to stream. There’s also more recently added titles like Immortals Fenyx Rising, Ride 4, Far Cry New Dawn Deluxe Edition, and even Ghostrunner. You can also find Abzu, Everspace, Monster Boy And The Cursed Kingdom, Bloodstained Ritual of The Night, and Ys VIII: Lacrimosa Of Dana. All of these are located in the Luna+ channel. Some of them are also titles which have been added to Stadia over the least few months. The newest games to be added to Luna are the service’s games for June, which include, The Falconeer, and Killer Queen Black. Amazon has also announced, which includes DiRT 5, Valkyria Chronicles 4 Complete Edition, and Saints Row: The Third – Remastered. So many of the games you see on Luna will be available through other cloud gaming options. In addition to the Luna+ channel, there’s also the Ubisoft+ channel, which as you may have guessed is filled with a ton of different Ubisoft games. Far Cry New Dawn, The Division, The Division 2, and Watch Dogs are just a handful of the different available options. But there’s also some fairly recent titles like Immortals Fenyx Rising (mentioned above), and Assassin’s Creed Valhalla. As Luna grows, more channels are likely to be added as well. Though at this time Amazon has not shared anything specifically. It does stand to reason however that as long as things continue to go well, Amazon will add more partners to the program and roll out channels for them which contain only their games. Access to these would also cost extra as it does with the Ubisoft+ channel. Amazon’s big thing here is letting you play games on the devices you already own. This is going to be limited to begin with, but it will hopefully start to expand soon. Now that the service is open to some players, you’ll be able to access it on Fire TV (any TV or device that has Fire TV baked into it), Mac, iOS via web apps, and PC. The service is also now available on Android devices, which Amazon just launched back in December of 2020. At the moment Amazon has made Luna an invite-only service. This means you can’t quite yet sign up and create an account to play games whenever you want. You can however sign up to request access, as it’s currently in a beta form. So long as you get an invite after requesting access, you can play games via the Luna+ and Ubisoft+ channels on the supported devices. There is one platform where you can access Luna without an invite at this point and it’s through Amazon’s. Though not all Fire TV devices will be compatible. Sign up for access will not guarantee you a spot to play. It is however your best shot right now at trying Luna out. As the beta continues, following its availability going live, Amazon will eventually open it up to more people. Perhaps anyone that cares to test it out. If you’re interested in trying the service, make sure to request access by signing up. The service is available at an introductory cost of $5.99 a month during the current beta period. This has also been the cost since the early access started back in 2020. Since this is only the beta price though, it will probably cost more when it launches fully. When it’s open to everyone and not just those invited. This is also the cost for the Luna+ channel only. If you want access to the Ubisoft+ channel, then it will cost you $14.99 a month for access. However, you do not have to subscribe to both. You can actually choose to subscribe to either the Luna+ channel or the Ubisoft+ channel. You can subscribe to both if you prefer though. And then have a lot more games to play. Amazon supports a handful of different controllers and has since the service went into early access. This includes the Luna controller, the Xbox One wireless controller, and the DualShock 4. You can also use a mouse and keyboard if you’re playing games on your PC. Which might be the preferred input method for some. There will undoubtedly be more compatible controllers down the line, but in the beginning Amazon is starting small with the most popular and most used controllers out there. And it makes sense. Now, that isn’t to say that other controllers won’t work. They might. But Amazon doesn’t list anything else as officially supported. So anything other than what was mentioned here may not work at all. You might be surprised at what’s available. Then again maybe not. Since this is Amazon-owned, it naturally has integration with Alexa. You can ask Alexa to play games and it’ll launch the game you mention. Not unlike Google has done with Stadia and Google Assistant. Luna also has integration with Twitch. Another Amazon-owned brand. You can watch Twitch livestreams on Luna and then from those streams launch into a game on the service yourself. Amazon says that the service will support up to 1080p resolution for most games. Some games will support up to 4K, but none of those are currently available on the service right now. Amazon says 4K is coming soon, so this is expected to pop up once the beta period is over. At the moment you can choose to play games at either 720p or 1080p. This can be changed in the settings menu once you’re logged into Luna. The recommended internet speed is 10Mbps for your download speeds for everything that is streaming at 1080p. If you’re going to stream in 4K, which isn’t available at the moment and probably won’t be during the beta period, you’ll need a minimum of 35Mbps download. As always though, the faster and stronger your internet connection, the better your streaming experience will be. So keep that in mind. Also note that streaming in higher quality will use up more internet bandwidth. Currently, running games at 1080p will chew through about 10GB an hour according to Amazon. And about half of that if you’re streaming games at 720p. The service is pretty limited for the early access period. To start, Luna will be available in the US only. This excludes Hawaii, Alaska, and any US territories. Amazon hasn’t announced any plans for expansion outside the US at the moment. Though it likely will expand after early access, and perhaps even during. For right now, the mainland US is still the only available region where Luna is up and running.Huawei event announced with full P50 reveal likely

Apple launches new Macs every year, with most of the upgrades bringing the expected performance improvements that come with each CPU and GPU refresh. Major redesigns are rare, as those come only every few years. It so happens that rumors say 2021 will be the year when Apple drops redesigned MacBook Pro and Air models. But the insiders familiar with Apple plans have offered all sorts of launch predictions. The most optimistic rumors claimed Apple wanted to launch the new MacBook Pro at WWDC back in June. And Apple has leaked the M1-successor name on YouTube, seemingly confirming that an M1X MacBook Pro reveal might have been in the works. Now, a new report indicates that we might not see the new MacBook Pro in stores until much later this year. That’s in line with the more pessimist leaks from earlier that pointed to September as a potential launch window. Apple changed the game last November. It released the first MacBook Pro and Air devices with its own Apple M1 chip inside. All Macs that will follow will run on M1 chips or better, as Apple doesn’t need Intel anymore. But the 2020 MacBook Pro and Air featured the same designs as their Intel-based predecessors. Apple is planning a major redesign for both laptop models. We’ve already seen purported MacBook Air renders, and the redesigned MacBook Pro claims appeared in several rumors earlier this year. The 2021 MacBook Pro’s flat edges aren’t that exciting. What’s really exciting are claims that say Apple will bring back MagSafe charging and several of the ports it removed a few years ago. The list includes HDMI and an SD card reader. The redesigned MacBook Pros will also feature mini-LED screens, similar to the 2021 12.9-inch iPad Pro display. Finally, Apple plans to launch the new Pro in two sizes. We’re looking at 16-inch and 14-inch display variations. The latter represents a new entry in Appl
