If you thought yesterday’s Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL launch would be the last flagship announcements of 2017, well, you’d be wrong. We’re expecting to see the Huawei Mate 10 and Huawei Mate 10 Pro in under two weeks, and the latter has just been caught on camera in real world photos for the first time. The Huawei Mate 10 Pro looks to have tiny bezels and a glass back.

Microsoft will stop making Surface hardware when 2019 rolls around, at least according to the head of one analyst firm, and a big cheese exec at Lenovo. Brazier observed: “The Surface performance is choppy; there are good quarters and bad quarters, overall they are not making money. Microsoft is making a lot of money on cloud, making a lot of money on Windows and Office, but losing a lot of money on devices. But even if Surface isn’t making any money overall as Brazier claims, the line of hybrid

Yesterday we learnt that future space missions could face an unexpected problem – microbes build up inside a spacecraft sealed for months on end.

The material is the creation of a team from the University of Leeds, who’ve been working on it for about seven years . It’s built up of three separate non-woven textiles, the resear

What do the Google Pixel 2 XL and iPhone X have in common? DesignWhile the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus were effectively hardware refreshes of last year’s iPhones, the iPhone X actually comes with an entirely new design. The iPhone X is just 143.6 x 70.9 x 7.7mm and a single gram lighter than the Pixel 2 XL.

Few features make the Apple Watch 3 so appealing as the available built-in LTE and Wi-Fi connectivity, but following its launch two weeks ago, reports of spotty connectivity quickly rolled in and stoked concerns.

Optionally, you can also pick up a $99/£ stylus that was created from a partnership with Wacom. You can also get a high-end version for $1,649/£1,699 (
