iPhone XS image leak teases larger size, new gold color Posted: 01 Sep 2018 06:43 AM PDT Apple is holding this year’s fall press event on September 12th, where we’re sure to see new iPhones, as well as a new Apple Watch. It’s long been expected that the iPhones for 2018 will include the direct successor to last year’s iPhone X, as well as a new larger size model. It appears we’ve got our first real confirmation on this, as new image has leaked showing two edge-to-edge OLED iPhones in different sizes. The photo shows one device atop the other from a side angle, in a way that’s exactly like Apple’s official marketing images. The phones feature the same screen design as the iPhone X, with the image of a planet stretching from corner to corner of the display. It’s not clear how 9to5Mac obtained the leaked image, but they note that it’s not a product mockup. The site says the phones will be called the iPhone XS, and feature OLED screens in the sizes of 5.8 inches and 6.5 inches, which have been rumored for months now. Also new in the image is that the iPhones are featured in a gold finish, a color option that Apple has used for years on models prior to the iPhone X, but was missing on last year’s flagship. 9to5Mac‘s leak doesn’t include any new details on the third new iPhone model expected for this year, which is said to use a 6.1-inch LCD screen with the iPhone X’s notch and edge-to-edge design, although swap the stainless steel frame for aluminum. We’ll have to wait until September 12th to hear more details directly from Apple, but in the meantime it looks like we have a good idea of what to expect. SOURCE 9to5Mac |
Microsoft releases new Windows 10 preview without performance visualizations in the Game bar Posted: 31 Aug 2018 09:52 PM PDT Microsoft today released a new preview for PCs with 12 bug fixes and a few changes. This build is from the RS5 branch, which represents the Windows 10 update the company plans to release in October. The company is also releasing builds from the 19H1 branch, which, as its name indicates, will arrive in the first half of next year. Windows 10 is being developed as a service, meaning it receives new features on a regular basis. Microsoft has released five major updates so far: November Update, Anniversary Update, Creators Update, Fall Creators Update, and April 2018 Update. Microsoft today also shared that the next update will be called “Windows 10 October 2018 Update.” Also known as Windows 10 version 1809, it is expected to be finalized for Windows Insiders in September and roll out to the public in October. Microsoft may have stopped adding features to this update, but it’s not done removing them. The performance visualizations (see your game’s framerate, CPU usage, GPU VRAM usage, and system RAM usage) added to the Game bar in build 17692 have been removed. The team wants to “re-evaluate the best possible approach going forward and work on giving you a great gaming experience on your PC.” This desktop build also includes the following general bug fixes and improvements:
Today’s update bumps the Windows 10 build number for the RS5 branch from 17746 (made available to testers on August 24) to build 17751. This build has three known issues:
As always, don’t install this on your production machine. |
'We're in a place to invest and focus a lot more on games again,' says Valve Posted: 31 Aug 2018 02:01 PM PDT In an interview with IGN, developers at Valve have spoken about the company's lack of new game releases over the past several years, and acknowledged that they're not oblivious to the comments and jokes online about the company's reputation for being opaque. This is the second time in recent months Valve has made it clear it has new games projects in the works, and not just its card game Artifact. In March, Valve's Gabe Newell said "Artifact is the first of several games that are going to be coming from us. So that's sort of good news. Hooray! Valve's going to start shipping games again." Newell referred to Valve's work over the past several years as "an investment in the future," language echoed by Artifact programmer Brandon Reinhart in IGN's interview. "We spent a lot of time improving customer service on Steam," Reinhart said. "That was a hard problem, and it took a bunch of people a bunch of time to work on." Reinhart went on to confirm that, yep, there's more cooking at Valve than Artifact: "Now we're in a place where we're able to, as a company, invest and focus a lot more on games again... The answer to 'you're just sitting on your butts, sitting on a pile of money, swimming around the gold vault,' is to not actually do that. To deliver a bunch of high quality games that show we're actually working really hard." The first of those games after Artifact will likely be In the Valley of Gods, from Firewatch developers Campo Santo. Valve purchased the studio and took over publishing duties back in April. |
