Sony will begin taking pre-orders from customers starting 24 August until 6 October 2019. As you might have expected, the phone comes with a pretty steep price tag at RM4299. But, in an effort to soften the pot and to sweeten the deal, Sony is also bundling the Xperia 1 with a pair of its WH-1000XM3 noise-cancelling headphone worth RM1599, free of charge.

As first reported by PiunikaWeb, a number of Spotify users using Android devices have had their app lading the splash screen, but no further. The usual troubleshooting steps like reinstalling the app, clearing cache and restarting the phone itself have failed to resolve the issue. For some, this has even prevented them from running the service via the Chrome browser. From the thread, it looks like the problem occurs after logging out of your Spotify account and logging back in....

The discovery was made when one user saw Spotify’s new home screen widget in action. From the screenshots, we can see that the widget can be resized between small or medium size, with the latter showing four options in the “Listen to Music and Podcasts”. In addition, the smaller version includes separate sections, such as recently played artists, songs, and albums. It is likely that Spotify is making an effort with this widget due to the surge in popularity of the feature on iOS, since its release back in September....

Star Wars: The Last Jedi is the most polarising Star Wars movie to date. It is also perhaps the most polarising movie of the decade, period. Since its release in the fall of 2017, fans have been dissecting, discussing and debating the film with an intense passion. No other movie of the 21st century has driven such a wedge through its fan base (some love the film with all their heart, others hate it and say it destroys their love for Star Wars)....

Most prominent of them all is the Korean player who goes by “lmyourfather”. A character specialist who is generally regarded as the country’s best Lee Chaolan player throughout the series, he has said on Twitter that he was hit by a seven-day ban. It comes, as you’d expect, with the claim that he doesn’t use any form of cheats. — Ham (@lmyourfather_) August 3, 2021 Tekken 7 producer Michael Murray has defended the bans with the justification that they were done using play data collected from servers, which were then reviewed by multiple people....

So what is the ASUS ROG Mothership? It’s essentially a notebook, except that it looks a lot more like a massive tablet. Instead of having all its internal components stored in the half with the keyboard, this one has everything squeezed right beneath the display. This inevitably makes the screen the heaviest component of the setup. So much so, in fact, it comes with a foldable stand. The keyboard is also detachable, and when you do that, you can fold it in half so that it doesn’t take up unnecessary space....

Even though the Malaysian government has progressively relaxed restrictions, many businesses will continue to function using at least a hybrid work model that would have employees working from home on certain days of the week and only occasionally have them coming into the office instead of on daily basis.

Specifically, the Mi 10 will be made official later this week on 13 February in China. As a comparison, the phone’s global launch event has been scheduled to take place on 23 February at Barcelona which coincides nicely with Mobile World Congress. Based on the image that was released by Lei Jun, there are plenty of traits that set the phone apart from its predecessor, the Mi 9. For example, Mi 10 seems to feature not only an in-display selfie camera but it is also located on the top left part of the phone instead of in the centre as per Mi 9....

It will be taking place starting from tomorrow, 21 December 2018 onwards up until 2 January 2019.

Additionally, the threat of cyberattacks is now more real than ever, as the world is becoming more connected than before.
