‘Black Mirror’ is coming back for Season 5

The Netflix anthology series just released its fourth season late in 2017 but is now ready to tackle a new season.

The teaser released on social media for the announcement showing different critically praised episodes of the series and ended it with a reference to season two’s “Be Right Back” episode with Hayley Atwell and Domhnall Gleeson.

Apple rumoured to be releasing a cheaper MacBook Air later in 2018

There hasn’t been much innovation in the realm of MacBook Air in recent years. But at least in terms of price, Apple reportedly has something up its sleeve, at least if we are to believe the rumours. According to Apple analyst KGI Securities, a cheaper version of the ultra-thin MacBook will be headed our way in the second quarter of the year. There will supposedly be a 13-inch MacBook Air “with a lower price tag,” which is expected to help boost laptop sales for the company. At the moment, the current generation of the MacBook Air’s retail price starts at $1,199.
