I had wondered if the watch project, and Ive’s software role, could be seen as a way for Apple to thank and secure Ive: handcuffs in yellow gold and rose gold. “I never thought of that, to be honest,” Cook said. “I think Jony really loves Apple—loves being here and loves the products.” He added, “The driving force was that our products would be much better.” If Jobs and Ive had a father-son dynamic, Ive and Cook seem like respectful cousins. Cook said that Ive was “extremely supportive” both before and after he publicly announced, last fall, that he was gay: “When you do something like that, there’s a group of people that throws stones.” He went on, “It’s been great having people who remind you of all the good in it.”

And ignoring India, it hasn’t been. Of late, Huawei’s approach towards the Indian market has been quite aggressive. In fact, the company recently brought its top-of-the-line Mate 20 Pro flagship to Indian shores. However, when it comes to the price-conscious Indian smartphone market, the real action is in the budget and mid-range segments. And that, is where Honor comes into the picture.

The phone also features infrared face unlock functionality. That’s not as accurate as the 3D facial recognition tech you’d find on the iPhone X or the Huawei Mate 20 Pro, but it definitely is quite convenient to have the phone recognise my face even in pitch darkness. Just like the fingerprint sensor, unlocking the phone using your face is also pretty fast, though it wasn’t entirely reliable, and was sometimes unable to recognise me.

Coupe-inspired premium crossovers aim for a suave appearance, but the design often ends up looking awkward by trying too hard to mix utility with the sweeping rear of a true two-door. However, Land Rover’s new 2018 Range Rover Velar proves that fabulous styling is possible in the segment. The new vehicle will make a big premiere at the Geneva Motor Show and will also be on display in April at the New York Auto Show. Sales in the United States will start this summer.

Since Peel is a direct competitor to MNML, I’m going to be making a lot of comparisons to the MNML here. The fundamentals are all the same: thin plastic material, accurate cutouts, exposed buttons, and so on. However, they differ in a few ways, and one of them is in terms of protection. Whereas the MNML has a raised area around the fingerprint sensor and nothing really around the camera, the Peel has the opposite. Both are valid methods of protecting the fingerprint sensor and camera, though I’d argue that Peel’s is slightly better. The MNML also comes in more colors, while the Peel only comes in "silver" (it’s more of a frosted white) and "black."

As any avid smartphone user will know, it’s getting increasingly difficult to find a glass screen protector that actually sticks to the phone with no issues. The ZAGG InvisibleShield caused terrible screen sensitivity, and I don’t dare touch any of the cheap offerings on eBay. However, there is one company that screen protector enthusiasts have begun to flock to: Whitestone Dome. The South Korea-based company uses separate UV-dependent adhesive for its glass protectors, and it works wonders.

Like the XSLATE B10, the new L10 has a small fan as part of Xplore’s internal thermal management system that also includes a custom copper heat spreader and heat piping to regulate heating and cooling in extreme temperatures. We’d rather not have a fan, but at this point it remains a necessity to guarantee safe operating temperatures and also guard against heat-related performance throttling. Xplore commented that the fan makes it possible for the XSLATE L10 to maintain full performance over the entire operating temperature range. Given that we’ve witnessed performance of some fanless designs drop dramatically when the system gets hot, including a fan makes sense.

So Xplore did the test on a single unit that was on during the entire battery of 26 drops. And they did it from six feet. It passed.

The day’s event included a ten-minute film. Ive’s reluctance to speak onstage has been offset by a willingness to appear in scripted videos. These productions—Ive speaking in earnest cadences, his head cocked forward like Pixar’s Anglepoise lamp—have become so well known that ikea recently parodied them, in an ad for its catalogue (“a device so simple and intuitive, using it feels almost familiar”). Such videos used to punctuate Jobs’s onstage message. In the absence of Jobs, they carry the message. Apple’s current leaders aren’t without public-speaking skills, but they can’t match Jobs’s charisma, which was fortified by a hint of menace, and their performances can evoke the awkward informality—the dancing in lanyards—of a corporate retreat. By contrast, the virtual Ive seems to emerge from the same orderly, decontaminated place as an Apple product. He appears “rational” and “inevitable,” to use the typical language. On Apple’s Web page of executive biographies, fourteen men and women give welcoming smiles; Ive, the in-house outsider, faces the camera with album-cover gravity.
