In other words, it may have a similar design to the original Mate X handset. What does this mean? Well, we may get one display instead of two.

While the two new Lenovo gaming mice won’t be available until May of this year, two of its gaming monitor options are launching in March. In total there are three different monitors that Lenovo is bringing to market. And all of them are fairly affordable. It’s those lower price points that should make these a hot ticket item for gamers.

It appears to be testing for both iOS and Android devices at the time of this writing. Instagram Reels has long supported music. It even allows users to search for posts with a particular song. We assume this would also extend to public feed posts to encourage the discovery of new content. A screenshot shared by XDA shows a new section called “Add Music” right below the location option. Trending songs appear as suggestions, while users can also search for other music....

Instagram clarified that AMBER Alerts are “rare and specific to the search area” AMBER Alerts are historically broadcast on television, radio, or text messages. However, social media has time and again proven to be a treasure trove of valuable information, particularly in time-sensitive situations. In-app AMBER Alerts aren’t particularly new. The Facebook app has published AMBER Alerts since 2015, so its arrival on Instagram has been long overdue. As The Verge notes, AMBER Alerts on Instagram can have more of an impact than conventional text messages....

The new typeface matches, according to Instagram, its need to better support as many languages as possible. In service of that, Instagram designed the fresh hand-built typeface with some added help from linguists.

Additionally, the company has even shared some imagery to better illustrate that process. Showcasing some fonts from along the way, ranging from the nearly unreadable to more mundane....

What began as an extremely limited test with just ten creators has now expanded to “tens of thousands” of creators across the US, Mosseri said.

For starters, the Galaxy A24 is said to be powered by Samsung’s in-house Exynos 7904 chipset. It is an outdated 14nm processor and is much older than the 6nm Snapdragon 680G found inside the Galaxy A23. Such a massive downgrade doesn’t make any sense. The rumored 6GB RAM and 64GB storage may still be fathomable, but a 4,000mAh battery with 15W fast charging in a 2023 Galaxy mid-ranger doesn’t fit correctly....

The folks over at MySmartPrice have got hold of the Galaxy M23 5G renders in three different colors.

Rumored camera features include OIS (optical image stabilization) and 4K video recording at 30 fps (frames per second). On the front, we have a U-shaped notched display with noticeable bezels....

LG even prepared a box for the device, which slides to the side, just like the phone does....

Rather, this just appears to be a newer version of the extravagantly expensive Louis Vuitton Tambour Horizon watch (which was already re-launched once in 2019 following the initial 2017 release), but with RGB lighting around the bezel. Why? We’re, not sure. Though Louis Vuitton will no doubt mention it during it an official announcement, which seemingly hasn’t happened yet. According to The Verge, Louis Vuitton has acknowledged and confirmed that this watch is real and that it is on the way....

A lot of people who are, themselves, parents now remember back in the day when they had to bring notes home from school. Trusting a kid to deliver a letter can sometimes be iffy. And, it becomes a lot more iffy when the note contains something bad. Nowadays, they’re more ways for a teacher to communicate with parents. Because of modern technology, parent-teacher communication can be a lot less of a chore....

Of course, they’ll also have the option to continue using the Office apps as-is. But Microsoft won’t be providing any support or updates. So, ultimately, that means that Chrome OS users will be forced to the web variant of Office in order to avoid missing out on features. And to avoid potential problems with bugs or vulnerabilities from future updates. Or, conversely, to other apps. Microsoft hasn’t clarified its reasons for the decision, only saying that it will be dropping support....

Looking at the phones, they have the Motorola design language. This means that they’re really rounded in their design. The corners are round compared to most phones on the market, and the backs of the phones have a deep curve. They mostly resemble the Motorola Edge+ 2022. The backs of the phones, based on the images, are made of glass, and they play with the light in a pleasing way....
