There had been much speculation about whether or not we’d see a March event. As it turns out, the coronavirus would have put paid to that anyway, but the new MacBook Air and iPad Pro Magic Keyboard announced today would absolutely have justified one. Life used to be very simple when friends asked me for recommendations on which laptop to buy… I’d start by asking them what they wanted to do with it....

DxOMark recently published its review of the iPhone 6s, and it confirms what we already sort-of new: it’s not a huge step up from the last generation iPhones. In fact, the camera performs ever-so-slightly worse than last year’s iPhone 6 and 6 Plus, which both entered the DxOMark rankings in 1st place when they were reviewed last year. It’s a slightly different story this year. With Apple packing in more pixels in to the sensor, the company’s aim was to offer higher resolution pictures without ruining performance....

Late last September it was rumored that a smart smoke/carbon monoxide detector would join the now Google-owned Nest line of smart thermostats and was later announced in early October to a great response. The Nest Protect, which retails for $129 in both a wired and battery powered variant, intelligently interacts with an iPhone app called Nest Home with warnings about low batteries (if applicable) and when alarms are active or about to be active....
The James Bond film franchise is currently in a state of flux, seeing that the distribution rights remain up for grabs following the release of 2015’s Spectre and there’s uncertainty surrounding Daniel Craig’s future as the suave secret agent.

He had other charges brought against him as well, also being indicted for failing to file tax returns between 2004 and 2008....
A question about the potential real-world impact of the upcoming DC film Joker led Joaquin Phoenix to walk out of an interview during the film’s press tour. The upcoming film, positioned as a character study of a mentally ill man and a story separate from the DCEU, has proven to be a polarizing one ahead of its October 4 release date. Joker was recently awarded the Golden Lion at the 2019 Venice Film Festival, while Phoenix’s performance as the mentally unstable Arthur Fleck has earned widespread praise and even Oscar buzz....
Warning! Major SPOILERS for Joker ahead. Joker may be a standalone movie, but the film is absolutely packed with Easter eggs. In an age of cinematic universes, DC Films is taking a refreshing and very different approach. They’re still continuing to build their shared universe, the DCEU, but they’re also launching spinoffs - “Elseworlds” stories that allow writers and directors a chance to relax and really enjoy themselves. Joker is the first of these movies, and it’s proving to be a remarkable success....

Apple began taking reservations for its iPhone 4S in Hong Kong and 14 additional countries this past Friday, but pre-orders sold out in ten minutes (even though Siri does not speak yet Mandarin or Cantonese), according to a research note by Ticonderoga analyst Brian White.

Marvel’s legendary Iron Man, Robert Downey Jr., danced his way into the new year and new decade. Despite only having one film release in 2019, it was a monumental year for the MCU’s inaugural superhero. Not only did Avengers: Endgame release to an overwhelming response from critics and audiences, but it surpassed the gigantic box office business of Avengers: Infinity War, while also knocking off James Cameron’s Avatar from the top spot of the worldwide box office list....
As you can see in the visual above, there are two HDR icons within the SDK. As labeled, one is for the iPhone 4’s Retina Display, while the other is for an iPhone without a Retina Display. The iPhone 3GS is the only iPhone that is physically (hardware capabilities) able to capture HDR shots so we figure that non-Retina icon is for the 3GS not the original or 3G model....

However currently, the most anticipated topic right now is whether the Mass Effect Legendary Edition coming to EA play or not?...
