**The Latest in Tech: Phones, 5G, and More**

When it comes to smartphones, there's always something new and exciting on the horizon. The latest phone to make waves is one from Huawei, which boasts an impressive 6.7-inch display with an extra one-inch always-on display on the back for when it's folded. This means that instead of having a thin rectangle in your pocket, you could have a thick square - yes, you read that right.

The phone also features a powerful Snapdragon 855 Plus processor, eight gigs of RAM, and dual 12-megapixel rear cameras with a 10-megapixel selfie camera. It also has a massive 300 milliampere-hour battery with quick and wireless charging capabilities, as well as a side-mounted fingerprint scanner. However, the one feature that's still unclear is whether we need something like this at all.

When it's folded, the phone becomes quite thick, measuring 17.3 millimeters in thickness - so, yes, you can imagine why some people might question the design choice. But hey, if you're looking for a new phone with cutting-edge tech, this one certainly delivers.

**Huawei's 5G Plans Take Shape**

In other news, Huawei is set to build out 5G network infrastructure in the UK - but not just any 5G infrastructure. The company will be limited in its role, only being allowed to use their equipment in non-sensitive core parts of the country's networks. This decision comes after the UK's National Cyber Security Centre analyzed Huawei's technology and supply chain, concluding that they were a high-risk vendor.

However, despite this risk, British companies are still being encouraged to use Huawei's equipment - albeit in a limited capacity. The EU is taking a similar approach, recommending that member states choose their own 5G suppliers while being careful not to compromise on security.

**Intel's Lakefield Processor: A Mobile Game-Changer?**

In the world of mobile processors, Intel is taking a step forward with their latest Lakefield processor. According to user benchmarking, this processor is 85% slower than a 10th Gen Core i3 - but it'll still run on much lower power consumption.

This means that Intel could be giving Qualcomm a serious run for its money in the mobile device market. With higher power models that use less energy, mobile devices could potentially last longer and perform better on battery life.

**Coronavirus: The Impact on Tech**

As the coronavirus continues to spread, we can expect some impact on the tech industry - albeit not directly from the virus itself. Many companies are taking precautions by shutting down their offices in China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan, including Google, Samsung, and Foxconn.

These closures may have a ripple effect on manufacturing plants around the world, as many electronics devices rely on Chinese production. However, it's worth noting that technology can't catch human viruses - but the industry may feel the impact nonetheless.

**The Eve Spectrum Monitor: A New Hope for Window Enthusiasts**

Finally, we have some exciting news from Eve, a company that's been waiting in the wings to deliver their long-awaited EV windows two-in-one. And finally, they've done it! The new Spectrum Monitor features an impressive 27-inch IPS panel with HDR 400 and 450 nits of brightness.

But will they ship? That remains to be seen - many people are still waiting for their EVs that were ordered a long time ago. Researchers have been using innovative methods like attaching radar sensors to albatross to track fishing fleets, but we can't help but wonder if Facebook might try something even more ambitious in the future...

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enoh man tech news like so weird like ah like like what anyways so stupid intel can just not catch a break these days as yet another side channel vulnerability has been found in the company's processors dang it intel come on this one is called cash out because it could enable an attack that exploits the cpu's caching mechanisms to select what data to leak as opposed to waiting for a big dump of non-specific data which is how other speculative execution attacks work the disclosure of this new vulnerability comes just as intel releases its third patch meant to fix the zombie load aka mds flaws but as well they can't they just can't get ahead of it but as reported by researchers the previous patches didn't fix the whole thing so there's no guarantee this one will either now one reason why we keep hearing about these new flaws is that intel's chips are still based off architecture from more than seven years ago whereas amd zen architecture is only around four years old and not as widespread so we might be hearing about a bunch of flaws and ryzen processors in a few years okay guys so let's not be so quick let's not be so quick to talk about you know how much intel sucks right now although that is exactly what we're doing right now well we now know that samsung's second foldable handset is called the galaxy z flip we also know basically everything else about it german language site winfuture.de got its hands on official renders of the flip that's what you called in german in a dazzling purplish indigo kind of color what color is that james i'm not looking at it it's got a 6.7 inch display with an extra one-inch always on display on the back for when it's folded it's got a snapdragon 855 plus eight gigs of ram dual 12 megapixel rear cameras and a 10 megapixel selfie cam 3 300 milliamp hour battery with quick and wireless charging plus a side mounted fingerprint scanner how about a headphone jack nope the only thing that remains unclear is whether we need something like this at all like apparently when it's folded it's 17.3 millimeters thick so instead of having like a thin rectangle in my pocket i could have a thick square why do you just get two phones duh and huawei wow the bastards actually did it the company is going to be allowed to build out 5g network infrastructure in the uk after all but in a limited role that will prevent huawei equipment from being used in sensitive core parts of the country's networks now all that's because the uk's national cyber security center analyzed huawei's technology and supply chain and concluded that huawei was a high-risk vendor but is asking british companies to use huawei in a limited way so we can collectively manage the risk the eu is following the uk's lead recommending that member states choose their own 5g suppliers but basically be very careful about it so at this point this is like look we ordered pizza and oh who delivered it a mass murderer he's at the door right now do we take it he might kill us just don't let him in the house yeah yeah you can like open the door and kind of yeah what if the sideways and spread it through the crack that there we go that should be fine now it's time for quick bits brought to you by ifixit they've got parts and tools that make it affordable to fix or upgrade your consoles even the nintendo switch they've got all the parts you need to fix that drift on your joy-con install a new battery even replace your fans make that switch run like a new switch ifixit also has helpful guides that show you how to do all that step by step so head to ifixit.com techlink to get everything you need to keep your nintendo switch and other game consoles running like you never even picked them up in the first place i want some bits get give them quickly the quickest bits it's tarzan i don't know what song intel's desktop chips might be sucking more than ever but on the low end mobile side there might be something to get excited about el chapoza's informatico spotted an intel lakefield processor on user benchmark and yeah it's 85 slower than a 10th gen core i3 but it'll run at a fraction of the power enabling higher power models that will give qualcomm a run for its money in mobile devices exciting huh yes ow that was the hardest high five the coronavirus continues to spread and while the world is still sorting out whether this is a genuine emergency google is being proactive by temporarily shutting down its offices in china hong kong and taiwan and will keep them closed after the lunar new year holiday ends samsung and foxconn are also shutting down their chinese factories along with many other manufacturing plants in the country so while technology cannot catch human viruses the industry may see an impact all the same eve the company responsible for the great crowdfunded ev windows two in one that's a tongue twister is back with the spectrum monitor featuring pretty awesome specs like a 27 inch ips panel hdr 400 with 450 nits brightness and a qhd 144 hertz version for 364 bucks the only question is will they ship it because many people are still waiting for their evs that they ordered a long time ago give them your money and wait to find out that's that's the that's the gist eve says they've solved their shipping problems but who knows if that's true you me adam he's pretty smart bible reference oh ltd is probably going to review this uh monitor so maybe just wait i i know it's hard and researchers have started tracking fishing fleets by attaching radar sensors to albatross okay so it's one thing to track animals in the wild it's another thing to use animals to track us before we know it facebook's going to be stealing our dogs and implanting cameras in them and then they'll know how we talk to our dogs i don't have one but you do disgusting see i don't like it look i know when an episode has gone too far so i'm ending this come back on friday for more tech news and we'll talk to you how we talk to our dogs with respect you don't know and dignity hello hello nice to see you my dog my dog sit please and i'll give you a treat it's tech newsoh man tech news like so weird
