Netflix and Nickelodeon to create new content

What might seem like an unusual partnership makes perfect sense. Netflix and Nickelodeon have struck a multi-year deal to create new, original content for the streaming service based on both existing intellectual properties as well as new ones. The companies have already produced new series based on existing IPs like Rocko's Modern Life: Static Cling and Invader Zim: Enter the Florpus. There are reports that the two are working on a live-action series based on Avatar: The Last Airbender.

The move is a strategic one, with the just-launched Disney+ streaming service's arrival and its vast library of animated content. On top of that, other services, like HBO Max, have their own kid-friendly shows. Netflix needs to compete, and one way to do so is to collaborate with a brand known for its kid-related content. Although, we don't know how the merger between Nickelodeon's parent company Viacom and CBS will affect this deal, especially with CBS having its own CBS All Access service.

OnePlus to launch after-service management app in North America

OnePlus plans to bring its OnePlus Care app to North America to help phone owners who need service support. The after-service management app will be coming to Canada and the US in "late November." The OnePlus Care app can be used to track a device's repair status. Of course, this app will only be useful if you have a secondary device to install it on.

OnePlus has a paid OnePlus Care service in India. It isn't clear if the company plans to bring that to North America as well.

The Motorola RAZR flip phone makes a comeback around 15 years later in the form of the Motorola razr. (Yes, it's all lowercase now.) And yes, it’ll be heading here. MobileSyrup reports that the phone will be coming to Canada in early 2020. There isn't a specific date, though. We'll keep you posted for any updates. For now, let’s talk about the device itself.

The form factor celebrates its predecessor in the most nostalgia-inducing way. It still looks pretty much like the old RAZR. You get a thick, curved chin that gets modernized with a fingerprint sensor and a USB-C charging port.
