The Android 12 roll out is just “weeks” away, Google has said, as it releases the final beta for this release cycle.

Apple does not need to launch a new version of the Apple Watch every year. In fact, it probably shouldn’t. The limited hardware upgrades are becoming less pronounced a

Apple is widely rumoured to be on the verge of releasing two new flavours of 2021 MacBook Pro, with 14- and 16-inch sizes expected.
