The reasoning that Linus Tech Tips was given does sound like it could be legitimate, and ties in with what we were told. In the video, Linus Tech Tips does not say if the team tried any other Apple Authorized Service Providers. Warranty woesAnother reason for Apple refusing to fix the iMac Pro could be because it’s not happy with how it was damaged.

Microsoft is still pushing Edge as hard as possible, but as an uncharacteristic peace offering, it’s released a new extension that brings the power of Windows Defender to those awkward people who still insist on using Chrome (or, worse still, a Mac).

Now we can say with near certainty that among the phones announced today we’ll see the Moto G6 and Moto G6 Plus, as exactly those names have been used in a screenshot and update text for the Moto Voice app on Google Play.
