ComScore has released its latest report today, detailing the market share of the major smartphone OEMs and their platforms. Unsurprisingly, Apple is still leading in terms of handsets shipped with 41.7% of smartphones shipped, while Android is still leading the mobile operating system market with 52.8% of the market.

Here’s Stephen Walker’s shock exit during Criminal Minds season 13 explained. Criminal Minds debuted on CBS back in 2005 and quickly became a worldwide favorite. The crime procedural follows an elite team of FBI profilers tasked with taking down any number of vicious serial killers. Mandy Patinkin (The Princess Bride) played the lead role of Jason Gideon for the first two seasons but famously quit the show before filming began on the third series....

Cyberpunk 2077 developer CD Projekt Red has spoken out against adding microtransactions after a game’s launch in the past, and its Krakow studio head recently clarified the company’s position regarding Cyberpunk’s post-launch monetization. The highly anticipated Cyberpunk 2077 is set for release next April, and CD Projekt Red is beginning to open up to fans about its plans for the game. CD Projekt Red resisted introducing lots of microtransactions into The Witcher 3 after its release, instead opting for a mix of paid and free DLC....

Holy augmented reality, clever Japanese developers are putting together an iPhone-based technology for cyclists that uses a heads-up display to help them get to where they’re going as they hit the road. The Scalar T3-A display connects to your iPhone to grab mapping data which it them shows in a visual display held at the corner of your eye. This display is retractable, though we’re not sure of the iPhone position – the contraption currently requires the device be mounted on the top of the helmet....

Mark Sokolovsky allegedly sold his malware as a service (MaaS) to countless cybercriminals on the Dark Web. It’s been active since 2018 and was used to steal credentials from more than 2 million people globally. Read on for details on this dangerous malware variant and a way to find out if your credentials were stolen. Here’s the backstory Authorities claim that Mark Sokolovsky was at the helm of one of the largest data-collection conquests in recent memory....

Could the DC Universe version of Cyborg have had his memories altered to make him forget about his best friend, Titans’ Beast Boy? It’s a possibility worth considering, given recent revelations in Doom Patrol regarding how Cyborg’s father, Dr. Silas Stone, electronically manipulated his son’s memories and limited who could contact him. When it was announced that DC Universe’s first original program would be a live-action Titans series, fans of the original comics were thrilled....

After last year’s Deadpool earned widespread critical praise (including some prestigious awards nominations) and broke box office records, fans everywhere cannot wait for God’s Perfect Idiot to return in Deadpool 2. The first film infamously lingered in development hell for years, and likewise the sequel has had some issues getting off the ground. In late 2016, director Tim Miller stepped down due to creative differences, paving the way for John Wick co-helmer David Leitch to call the shots....

A Chinese blog report that claims to reveal the date of the keynote announcing the iPhone 6S and 6S Plus is being picked up by some media outlets. According to the blog, sources inside the Foxconn supply chain have stated that the keynote will take place on Friday 11th September, with the phones going on sale a week later on the 18th. Leaving aside the uncomfortable anniversary of the Sept 11th attacks and the fact that Apple is extremely unlikely to choose a Friday for its keynote (it generally opts for early in the week, to maximise media coverage prior to new iPhones going on sale), there is the small matter of the source....

A report back in July claimed that Apple was moving the Smart Connector on the new iPad Pro, placing it just above the Lightning port. This was supported a few days later by a CAD image which showed an outline in the same position. Today, a claimed iPad Pro case reveals a slot which matches both the position and shape of the CAD image … The case photos were posted on Slashleaks....

Warner Bros. announces a December release date for the awards season contender Richard Jewell. Directed by Clint Eastwood, the drama film explores the life and times of man who was wrongfully accused of plotting the 1996 Centennial Olympic Park bombing. At the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta, a pipe bomb explosion killed one person and injured 111 others. Jewell, a security guard, initially reported a backpack containing the bombs, allowing for authorities to clear out the area....

Mac and iOS development team Panic announced today in a company blog post that the next major version of its Coda web development tool would not be coming to the Mac App Store. The reason? App Store apps need to be sandboxed (a security feature in OS X that doesn’t let apps modify data outside of their designated “sandboxes”), and Coda 2.5 simply doesn’t work as a sandboxed app. According to Panic, Apple worked with the developers as much as possible to provide temporary exemptions and workarounds that could help alleviate some of the issues encoutered, but ultimately the decision was made to only release the update through the Panic website....

I wrote yesterday that Apple’s Q4 guidance would give a big clue about iPhone 8 timing, but that it might not be easy to decode. I said that one of the three possible scenarios would give the clearest steer: a guidance range significantly higher than normal for a ‘tock’ year. In that event, it would send a clear message that the iPhone 8 will go on sale in September, with at least enough availability to show up in the financials....

Consistency is something that makes someone perfect in a task. When things are repeated, a person can simply find several ways to keep up the pace against something in different ways. Actually, this is exactly what we call experience and the same defines the limit and true abilities of a person. When it comes to smartphones, a lot of models are available in the market. However, makers that are experienced in manufacturing these gadgets and the ones which can be trusted for consistency are very limited....

Many smartphones are launched with a pro version these days. The manufacturers are paying a ton of attention on the same and they have their own reasons for the same. Some believe the sales can be enhanced in a better and quick way while other smartphone makers believe this helps them in enabling the users to buy a specific gadget when they don’t want to spend the actual cost it is tagged....

What if Apple brought the OLED display function key row that is rumored for upcoming MacBooks to its Apple keyboard too? Completely disregarding what it might require technically to integrate and drive such a display in the keyboard, this concept from Curved imagines bringing that feature to iMac, Mac Pro, Mac mini and other Mac users via a new version of Apple’s wireless keyboard. Several recent reports indicated Apple is working on new MacBook hardware that integrates an OLED touch screen into the keyboard in place of the usual function key row....

We’re expecting iOS 13 to bring some exciting improvements including a system-wide Dark Mode, a whole new way to multitask with detachable panels, and much more. Now, a concept imagines how iPad could benefit by bringing macOS’ Finder to iOS with external drive support, improved multitasking, and more.

On Wednesday, Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, Rep. Pramila Jayapal, and Rep Ayanna Pressley joined Senators Ed Markey and Jeff Merkley in calling for DHS to end its use of Clearview AI’s facial recognition technology. “Facial recognition tools pose a serious threat to the public’s civil liberties and privacy rights, and Clearview AI’s product is particularly dangerous. We urge you to immediately stop the Department’s use of facial recognition technology, including Clearview AI’s tools....

The COVID-19 crisis has certainly put social marketer’s flexibility to the test. Faced with a global crisis, social marketers have had to rethink their entire strategies and even scrap whole campaigns that no longer feel relevant. And without a playbook with clear next steps on what to do in a pandemic, social marketers are turning to their peers for guidance in a time where few people have all the answers....

Dark Phoenix may end up scoring the all-time worst box office opening weekend for Fox’s X-Men film franchise. To say this property has had its fair share of ups and downs during its nearly two-decade existence would be an understatement. In stark contrast from Disney’s Marvel Cinematic Universe (which has posted a string of consecutive Certified Fresh hits), the X-Men movies tend to be all over the place in terms of quality....
