If you were waiting for a “proper” post-credits scene for Avengers: Endgame and was disappointed, then here’s some news for you. The epic finale to the Infinity Saga finally gets a post-credits scene. Now, if you’re a fan, you’ve probably already seen it, though. Endgame’s new post-credits scene is the second trailer for Spider-Man: Far From Home. And if you’ve seen it, you know it’s full of spoilers and Easter eggs about Endgame, so it seems like a proper thing to tack onto the end of the film. So, if you’re catching Endgame for the first time or heading into theatres for the nth time, then now you know you can stay to the end for a post-credits scene.

We’ve seen many tech companies take on flexible screens, but here’s a new entry into that space we didn’t expect: Louis Vuitton. The luxury fashion brand showed off two prototype handbags at its LV’s Cruise 2020 runway show that have built-in flexible displays. According to LV, these are AMOLED displays with 1,920 x 1,440 resolution. One of the bags had a single screen, while the other had two. These displayed random city views on what looked like a demo of an internet browser. The brand didn’t say if the screens were made in-house or were outsourced and whether these would make its way beyond being prototypes. But according to LV, these are "the basis for reconsidering the digital Canvas of the Future" and they are "always in search of the fusion of savoir-faire and innovation." If it does reach the market, LV hopes these bags become “an extension of the smartphone.” But don’t expect these to be cheap, it’ll be coming from a big luxury brand after all.

With the OnePlus 7 Pro set to launch in the next few days, the company has partnered with National Geographic to show what the phone’s cameras can do. The July edition of the magazine will come with an “Inspired by Nature” supplement shot using the phone. The magazine picked three world-renowned photographers—Andy Bardon, Carlton Ward Jr., and Krystle Wright—to document their journey around North America using the OnePlus 7 Pro and its triple-lens setup and UltraShot system. Speaking about her experience on the shoot, Wright said, “With the OnePlus 7 Pro, you have a whole camera bag in your pocket which is what has allowed us to be able to shoot a whole issue on a smartphone.” We’re going to hear more about this phone on May 14 when it launches.

Samsung Galaxy S10 Enterprise Edition launches in Spain

An Enterprise Edition of the Galaxy S10 has just surfaced in Spain, launching alongside the Galaxy S10e and S10. Not much is different from the regular versions of the phone, except these are designed to address the specific needs of the business segment. The focus is on after-sales support, timely security updates, and enterprise-deployment and management tools such as Knox Configure, Enterprise Firmware Over-The-Air service (E-FOTA on MDM), etc.

According to a translated statement from Samsung Spain’s Director David Alonso, “At Samsung we are aware of everything that companies need in a new era marked by mobility, where secure devices are increasingly demanded, but at the same time accessible from internal IT departments. The Enterprise Edition devices combine the latest advances in technology and the best performance for companies, which also want to enjoy ten years of innovation reflected in the new Galaxy S10.” There is no word on pricing yet but it shouldn’t stray too far from the regular models.
