First 2019 iPhone Models Would Be Red iPhone XS and XS Max

At the moment, both iPhone XS and XS Max are only available in silver, black, and gold. However, that would change this month when Apple plans to launch red iPhone XS and XS Max as its first 2019 iPhone models.

The rumor came out thanks to a post on Weibo, the most famous Chinese social network. MacRumors took the information and presented it yesterday. According to Weibo, it seems that the new red iPhone XS and XS Max would only be available in China as the iPhone sales in this country are much lower than expected. However, Apple might not limit the sales for its upcoming iPhone XS and XS Max in red color only to China.

The report on Weibo also says that red variants of iPhone XS and XS Max would come out later this month. “Apple globally launched a mid-cycle (PRODUCT)RED edition iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus in March 2017 and a similar edition for the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus in April 2018, so the timing wouldn’t be completely off. Apple already sells a (PRODUCT)RED variant of the iPhone XR,” MacRumors pointed out.

On the other hand, as regards the other iPhone of the 2018 lineup, “Apple’s iPhone XR has had a red color variant since launch. So, it wouldn’t be surprising to see Apple release red versions of the iPhone XS and XS Max, to drum up sales,” Business Insider highlighted.

“If there’s any weight to today’s rumor of a red iPhone XS and XS coming to China, it could potentially signal the early launch of PRODUCT(RED) versions for the rest of the world, although nothing is certain. Rumors last year of a mid-cycle PRODUCT(RED) edition of the iPhone X never transpired, for example,” MacRumors reported.

In short, according to a rumor coming from Weibo, Apple might launch its first 2019 iPhone models this month – iPhone XS and XS Max in red color. However, both devices, which initially rolled out in 2018, won’t come out with any other changes except the new color.

Best PC Gaming Controller For 2019

PC Gaming does have its charm, and some users prefer it. However, the keyboard and the mouse aren’t always the best alternatives for playing the game. Since many console games are also available on PC, it does feel more natural to play them with the help of a controller.

There are many great options when it comes to PC controllers and today we are going to talk about the best ones:

Razer Wolverine Ultimate

This console is quite expensive, and you should find it on Amazon. The lowest price we found for it is €142.50, on Amazon Germany. Nonetheless, many users believe that the controller is worth it. Despite the fact that this is a wired controller, the Razer Wolverine Ultimate has its own particular charm.

The controller has back paddles that can be customised. You might also enjoy that the face buttons click in just like a mouse, which can be very satisfying while playing. While this might sound like a minor detail, it can improve your gaming experience.

Microsoft Xbox Elite Wireless Controller

If you are willing to invest in a controller, the Microsoft Xbox Elite Wireless is great. It is possible to tweak almost everything, from stick sensitivity, min and max trigger values and button assignments, which makes it possible to customize it however you want.

Xbox 360 Controller

The controller is quite affordable, which is an advantage. Despite its accessible price, the Xbox 360 controller works great for PC gaming. Its best feature is the fact that it is very simple to use. It has comfortable triggers and bumpers and it comes with the analog stick layout. More than that, many PC games have button prompts that are in fact based on the Xbox controller.

Boost your COD Black Ops 4 Battle Royale Experience with These Sips

Battle royale is here to stay and many AAA developers have already included the popular mode in at least one of their titles. The Blackout mode featured in Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 offers an interesting take and is appreciated by many of its players.

Those that aren’t used to the game mode may face troubles at first but worry not: our guide will teach you all the steps that are needed in order to be the last one standing.

Major strategies:

Prioritize loot discovery

The main goal in any BR game is to gather the best order to increase your offensive and defensive capabilities. Try to land in an area that has reliable loot spawns but be on your guard: many are prime hotspots and it is likely that you will encounter enemies from the moment you land. Visit every building and search every container that can be seen. Looting remains relevant until the end since a level 3 weapon can make a huge difference in the final battle

Be sneaky

Closing your door after you enter in a building should be instinctual. Wandering enemies will believe that the area is free and the chances of a successful ambush will increase. It is also a great way to avoid snipers since they will usually camp open doors and broken windows.  Leaving signs of your presence is a bad idea since some players will attempt pre-emptive moves and dying to a well-placed Molotov cocktail is a bit sad.

Improve your map awareness

Keeping an eye on the circle is always a good idea. This will allow you to stay in the game longer by avoiding a shameful death and you can always snipe some people that are too focused on barely escaping the shrinking zone.

Valuable tips:

Filling your inventory with useless weapons or ammo is not a good idea. Keep what you need and avoid a hoarder strategy that is likely to fail.

Driving vehicles in a great idea if you play with a squad but solo players should stick to walking and running.

Don’t waste your perks. Keep them for as an ace that can be used in a difficult situation.

Will We Finally Receive Diablo 4 From Blizzard?

During Blizzcon 2018, many fans were hoping for a Diablo 4 announcement, but that never came. Nonetheless, hope is not lost just yet. There have been several reports which seem to indicate that Blizzard hasn’t forgotten about the Diablo games, and there is a chance that we might still receive a new one.

If we go back to August, we had a statement made by community manager Brandy Camel. At the beginning of Diablo 3: Season 14 he declared the following:

“The forges here at Blizzard are burning hot. And we have multiple Diablo projects in the works. Some of them are going to take longer than others. But we may have some things to show you later this year. We hope you stay tuned, while we work to bring these Diablo experiences to life. None of this would be possible without the support that you have shown us for over 20 years. So whether you first joined us in Diablo 3 or you are a seasoned veteran, thanks you. Diablo is, and always will be, part of Blizzard’s identity, and we can’t wait for the future.”

The statement clearly indicates that there are multiple Diablo projects in the works. This means that a new game is definitely a possibility. More than that, there was also a video titled “The Future of Diablo”, which was posted next to the statement. That year we did receive a mobile game named Diablo Immortal, but fans weren’t really impressed by it.

Does Diablo 4 exist?

We do believe that developers are also working on an upcoming game for the series. The biggest clue were several job listing posted by Blizzard, such as: “”We are working on a new, unannounced Diablo project. Are you a skilled Dungeon Artist? Come work with us, and together we will build something exceptional.”

It appears that Blizzard has been looking for many artists, and back in 2016 it even announced that it searches a new game director for Diablo. Therefore, it is highly likely that Diablo 4 might be in the works.
