There will be another ‘The X-Files’ season later this year

If you think last year’s comeback of The X-Files was lacking, then we have good news for you. Fox just announced that the hit sci-fi series is making another comeback at the latter part of 2017 with both David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson returning as FBI agents Mulder and Scully. The show’s creator Chris Carter will also be back as executive producer of the 10-episode season. The new season doesn’t have an exact premiere date yet so we’re staying tuned for that.

Microsoft Windows 10 Mail and Calendar will get Gmail support

When it comes to the more advanced features on Windows 10 Mail and Calendar, Microsoft is bringing Google users into its fold with its new update. The tech company is rolling out support first to Windows Insiders first. It won’t be coming in one fell swoop, too. If you’re excited to get support, you might or might not get it immediately.

The update will bring some important features to Google users, though. These include Focused Inbox, which automatically detects important emails from your inbox and shows you these first. Aside from that, users will also get travel reservation reminders and package tracking in the Calendar app. These features were previously limited to Outlook.com and Office 365 accounts. To get these features, though, you will need to sync your email, contacts, and calendars to Microsoft’s servers—in case you were concerned about this. But any changes you make to your Gmail account on Windows 10 and Calendar will sync with your Google account. So, if you’re looking for a viable desktop email client, Microsoft is making a case for that.

Samsung will be releasing an update for the Galaxy S8 to get rid of red screens

Some Samsung Galaxy S8 have been riddled with red-tinted displays. And while Samsung announced a manual fix for it (Settings > Display > Screen Mode > Color Balance), it doesn’t seem to work for everyone. That’s why the South Korean company announced it’ll be releasing a software update next week to expand the color range of the smartphone so you can make the red color lower than what they’re able to do at the moment.

While Samsung is fixing the device, it isn’t quick to blame the phone just yet. According to The Korean Herald, Samsung said, “We will upgrade the software because of some dissatisfied customers although there is no problem in the phone itself.”
