The final trailer for Netflix’s ‘Stranger Things 2’ is here!

It seems appropriate for Netflix to drop the final trailer of the second season of Stranger Things on Friday the 13th. (Before that they dropped a teaser for the trailer inspired by the classic 1980 slasher film.) And we get to see more of our favorite Hawkins gang and the bigger threat they’re facing. And boy, does it look menacing.

If you can’t watch the trailer immediately, here’s the synopsis for Stranger Things 2: “It’s 1984 and the citizens of Hawkins, Indiana are still reeling from the horrors of the Demogorgon and the secrets of Hawkins Lab. Will Byers has been rescued from the Upside Down but a bigger, sinister entity still threatens those who survived.”

Nokia 9 gets leaked, shows curved glass design and dual rear camera setup

HMD Global is on a roll with its Nokia-branded releases. The company has already unveiled four Nokia devices this year and it looks like there’s one more coming out in the future. The Nokia 9 seems to be meant for the higher end market, similar to the Nokia 8. The new device has been leaked by @OnLeaks and Compareraja, complete with the 360-degree render video you see above.

The rumoured device shows a curved glass design for the front and the rear, a dual camera setup at the rear, rear fingerprint scanner, and USB Type-C port. What’s missing is a headphone jack, which a lot of flagships have started to adopt. In terms of specs, this will reportedly have a 5.5-inch, bezels QHD display, Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 processor, 4GB of RAM, and 64GB or 128GB internal storage. Dimensions of 140.9 x 72.9 x 7.5mm (or 8.9mm with the camera bump).

Bluewave Audio's wireless headphone amp solves disappearing headphone jacks

Apple Inc. was excoriated for leaving out the headphone jack on the iPhone 7 a year ago. Many believed this omission was unnecessary or 'Apple being Apple,' by taking away a beloved and useful feature.
