The main display on the Galaxy Fold features a top protective layer, which is part of the display structure designed to protect the screen from unintended scratches. We have our own unit (check out our hands-on) and we are not yet experiencing any issues, though we’ve already seen reports of a visible crease showing in the middle of the screen, along the folding line. The problems outlets like Bloomberg, The Verge and CNBC are experiencing with their Galaxy Fold units are either cracking/breaking of the screen, or flickering, Reuters reports. While we surely hope this isn’t the case, we can’t help but remember the Galaxy Note7 fiasco three years ago when, due to design flaws that resulted in phones blowing up, Samsung had to recall and cancel the model.

At the end of last month Microsoft sent out press invites for an April 17 event, which was widely considered to be the opportunity to show off the new Surface Hub 2S.

It is powered by the 8th-generation Intel Core i5 quad-core processor, and offers integrated Intel UHD Graphics 620, 8GB of RAM and a 128GB SSD.

Those residing in the U. S., U.K., and Ireland, are now able to use Alexa to control Apple Music on their Sonos speakers, according to a recent report. In order to achieve that, you will need to enable the Apple Music feature in Alexa’s settings, and link your account. Additionally, Sonos responded to an Engadget inquiry, and said that users will be able to send music to non-Alexa-enabled speakers as long as they are part of the same audio group (either in Sonos or Alexa). If, however, you are an Apple Music subscriber but prefer Chromecast, hints appeared at the beginning of the month that Apple might be adding Chromecast compatibility in the near future.
