MacBook Pro 16” presented
Although there was no big Apple event like in September for the new iPhones and for the Apple Watch Series 5, Apple introduced a new device this week. And it is the long-awaited MacBook Pro with a 16 inch display. Apple no longer offers 15 inches. The notebook comes with a number of innovations that many users have noticed since the first Pro-Model with Touch Bar desired. These include the introduction of an Escape key and an overhaul of the keyboard - it now feels like the Magic Keyboard. Of course Apple relies on the latest inside Proprocessors from Intel. The part is powered by a battery with 100 watt hours, so the battery life should also be a little longer. Nothing has changed in price compared to the previous model, the device is now available from Apple.
Motorola RAZR (2019) revealed
For a long time there were rumors that Motorola was working on a new RAZR with a foldable display. To be honest, I myself no longer believed in it, but I was taught otherwise. Because a few days ago we saw exactly such a smartphone. It folds vertically, comes with Android, and looks very similar to the original Motorola RAZR. The outer display was also retained, this acts as a display for notifications. If you look at the equipment, the new smartphone is closest to the middle class. In terms of price, however, it plays a little higher, it should cost around 1500 euros. It will be available from us in Germany from next year.
Facebook Pay launched
At the beginning of the current week, Facebook Pay launched in the US. For the time being, it is unknown when the ministry will come to us. It differs a little from Google Pay, Apple Pay and similar services, as you can only send money via Facebook platforms (Instagram, Messenger, WhatsApp). Paying in shops is not possible this way. The debits are made via Visa, Maestro or PayPal, depending on your choice.
