While we won’t get to hear about Beyond Good and Evil 2 at E3 this year, game developer Ubisoft will be holding a livestream for the game. You can tune in on June 5th at 12 PM ET/9AM PT. This livestream is part of a series of livestreams the company calls Space Monkey Report. Details about the upcoming game have been sparse, but hopefully, we get some juicy updates from this stream. There won’t be new gameplay footage, though, but Ubisoft said they would share that “when the time is right.” This follow-up to the sequel of Beyond Good and Evil has been at least 15 years in the making, so our hopes are high for this one.

The ASUS ZenBook Pro Duo is a creator’s dream machine

In the past few months, it felt like the only innovation happened in the smartphone space. Or perhaps we can attribute that to the breakneck speed that industry is taking. But the mobile phone space isn’t the only industry pushing forward. ASUS at Computex 2019 in Taiwan is making its own moves in the laptop space. And it’s brought its best tech into its latest flagship model—the ZenBook Pro Duo.

At last year’s Computex, ASUS showed off the ZenBook Pro, a laptop that featured a secondary screen on the touchpad. ASUS called this the ScreenPad. The Taiwanese company builds on this idea with the ZenBook Pro Duo. It supersizes the idea and places the ScreenPad Plus right underneath the display, giving you an extra 14-inch full-width 4K secondary screen.

Apple's iPod Touch gets some love, updated specs

One week ahead of the Apple World Wide Developer's Conference (WWDC), Apple announced that it has updated the iPod Touch line. Currently the only iOS product sporting a 4-inch screen, the iPod Touch is an ideal device for younger children who don't need a phone, or anyone who wants access to the Apple ecosystem without spending too much.

"“We’re making the most affordable iOS device even better with performance that is twice as fast as before, Group FaceTime and augmented reality starting at just $249 CAD,” said Greg Joswiak, Apple’s vice president of Product Marketing. “The ultra-thin and lightweight design of iPod touch has always made it ideal for enjoying games, music and so much more wherever you go.”  The new iPod Touch models look identical to the models shipped four years ago but have a lot of the improvements under the hood.
