Todd Brett16 Jul 2021Steam Deck: Imagine a Windows-operated Xbox in a Switch Shape The gaming console by Valve is officially announced, and it looks like the developer combined the best sides of Nintendo Switch and Xbox. The former comes to mind when you see the shape of the console with its 7” HD touchscreen, the latter is reminded of by the supported game library. Still, the console has a very original, recognizable style, with controls integrated on both sides of the screen and the overall design a bit futuristic.
The screen does not impress with its resolution (only 1280*800), but it supports the firm 60 FPS. Given the new hybrid chipset by AMD,...

In iOS 14.5, users for the first time got an option to block tracking within any single app. Now Google follows the same route with its mobile platform. In late 2021, Android will introduce the same possibility, though not for everybody at the same time.
You won’t have to wait for the next major update to see apps ask you whether you will let them track you and access your data. All it takes is a Google Services update, and Alphabet is already working on it. So,...

For example, the new home screen will be able to place widgets anywhere – like on its Android alternatives. Now, instead of dedicated section, you will be able to place widgets where you want them to be. Reviewed multitasking will allow your iPad to better handle multiple apps at the same...
