When compared to a year ago, hardware sales in June grew 52% to $350, apparently driven by Fortnite, E3, and increased NES Classic distribution....
A release in this time period was previously rumored, but it was unclear how much the global pandemic would affect those plans. According to ZDNet’s sources, we may see the Surface Go 2 as early as next month, while the Book 3 isn’t expected until June.

That functionality requires an accessory: the DeX station. You plug your S8 into the dock, attach peripherals, and you’re good to go. Except it doesn’t just work with the S8. YouTube user gazcart has uploaded a video showing the DeX dock and a Lumia 950. It seems the underlying technology is so similar that it works perfectly. Cross-Compatibility?

This article was contributed by Sipho M. who works as Content Manager at ameliorateseo.com. Microsoft 365 and Microsoft Office are the two options offered for Microsoft’s productivity packages. The former is a subscription-based service, and the latter is a once-off payment option. Both have the capability of offline usage on desktop apps; however, Office has one leg up on Microsoft 365. This is because, with a subscription service, you can download and use the popular Office apps, but you will need to go online at least once every 30 days for the subscription to be registered for your continued use....
