Netflix Original Series Stranger Things 2 is turning our world upside down again

Things just got even stranger for the launch of Stranger Things Season 2. We pick up in the year 1984 when hanging out at the Arcade to play video games was fun and Ghostbusters was released in theatres. We really don't want to spoil anything but all you know is that Hawkins is getting darker. If you haven't watched any of the series, please, please go and start at Season 1. You need the background info to move on.

If you've binged through the first season and ready to jump right into Season 2, be prepared to be stuck on your couch for a while unless you're like many other Netflix members who like to sprint through episodes as fast as you humanly can! Yes, all of Season 2 can be streamed of this series because the show's directors and producers  probably know that we need answers after each show. But again, we won't give anything away but it seriously fun for those who grew up in the 80s and all the references from cars to shoes to food. Keep a close eye! And the soundtrack to this series is so good!

Rogers reports tremendous excitement for iPhone X and good demand for iPhone 8

Apple's iPhone X went up for pre-orders in Canada earlier today and quickly sold out of existing online stock. Rogers reportedly stated, "tremendous customer excitement" and strong pre-orders for the iPhone X. The carrier also changed its tune on the iPhone 8, which the company says now has good demand. More importantly, it now says overall demand for the iPhone 8 is "good" after initially saying initial demand  for iPhone 8 was 'anemic'.

In an exclusive interview with Axios reporter Ina Fried,  Rogers executive VP Raj Doshi said "we're seeing tremendous customer excitement for iPhone X with strong customer pre-orders."

"We're also seeing good demand for the iPhone 8. We expect the two together will be very popular with our customers this holiday season with iPhone 8 being a major contributor," he added. The uptick in iPhone 8 demand could be a result of the iPhone X's halo effect.

WhatsApp will now let you recall messages you didn’t mean to send

We’ve all sent messages we wish we haven’t and finally WhatsApp is making sure the unintended recipients don’t see the message with its latest update. The Facebook-owned messaging app will let you delete messages for all people within a conversation. Like a lot of messaging apps out there, you can only delete a message for yourself. But now, this “delete for everyone” feature will get rid of the message for everyone. There are a few caveats, though. One is you’ll need to delete the message within seven minutes. After that, you can’t take the message back. Another is that all conversation participants need to have the latest version of WhatsApp to get the feature to work. If you fulfill these requirements, then you’re good to go.

‘HTC U11 Plus’ to get officially launched on November 2nd

The new phone coming out of HTC’s stables is being called the HTC U11 Plus, which seems plausible as it’s seen as the evolution of the HTC U11. And it looks like we’re getting closer and closer to seeing it. HTC teased on Twitter an image showing off the bottom left side of a smartphone with the date “11.02.2017” over it and the words “You’ll believe it all” in the tweet itself. HTC seems to be showing off the nearly bezel-less design to the sides of the device, suggesting we’re also getting an 18:9 display from the Taiwanese company.

Some of the rumoured specs of the HTC U11 Plus include a 5.99-inch 1,440 x 2,880 resolution display, Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 processor, 4GB or 6GB of RAM, and 64GB or 128GB of built-in storage. It’ll supposedly run Android 8.0 Oreo out of the box and have a sizable 3,930mAh battery. For its cameras, rumour has it that the rear shooter is a 12-megapixel sensor with f/1.7 aperture, while the front has an 8-megapixel camera.
