Vivo NEX teardown reveals many secrets

Teardowns are often done to discover how hard it is to open up and repair a device. Some teardowns, however, are more interesting because of what they might reveal inside an unconventional product.

Report Speculates That Apple Could Acquire A Major Media Company

So we know that Apple has been rather busy going about acquiring new content for its video streaming platform. That much is already been confirmed, but many are questioning how Apple plans to go about distributing it. Will Apple do it on their own, or will they partner up with someone else to do it?

According to speculation by The Hollywood Reporter’s Tim Goodman (via 9to5Mac), he has speculated that Apple could be planning a major media company acquisition. While this is only speculation on Goodman’s part, it’s not completely out of the question. After all Apple is known for being a tech company rather than an entertainment one, and acquiring a media company would get them the framework and connections that they would need to succeed.

Plus it would also give Apple a bunch of other shows to give customers access to right off the bat. Goodman writes, “Apple can’t really think that its legion of brand-loyal customers will also pay somewhere in the vicinity of $9.99 a month for a dozen or so series that might not be all that great, might be a mixed bag creatively or, if you want to be insanely optimistic, even if all 13 are brilliant. Apple can’t think people will do that, can it?”

It is unclear as to who Apple might have in their sights, but take it with a grain of salt for now since none of it can be confirmed. However like we said, Goodman does make a pretty good point so it wouldn’t be completely out of the question, so we guess only time will tell.

Tesla To Introduce A ‘Premium Connectivity’ Package For Its Cars

Cars used to be a vehicle that got us from point A to point B, but these days in our increasingly connected world, even our cars need to get onto the internet for all kinds of purposes, whether it be to pull navigation information, music, traffic updates, and more. This is a feature that Tesla has been offering in its cars for several years now, but now it looks like they’ll be attempting to monetize that feature.

In a report from Electrek, it has been revealed that Tesla is planning on introducing what they are calling a “Premium Connectivity” package option for its customers. What this does is that it will provide car owners with an internet connection that will allow them to show satellite maps along with live traffic visualization, music streaming, and more.

It is unclear what the pricing of this premium package will be, but Electrek has heard that it will be around $100 a year. Now this isn’t to say that if you don’t want to pay for it your car will lose all connectivity. There will be the “Standard Connectivity” option that will still provide internet to your car, except that it will be somewhat limited to features that require low amounts of data, which would be basic navigation.

This means that you won’t be able to access some of the perks that those who paid for the Premium package have. The good news is that for customers who purchased a Tesla before the 1st of July won’t have to pay for internet, and that this only applies to customers who purchase a Tesla after that time period.
