Lenovo’s first gaming phone has two batteries and a camera on the side.
Get a point for being unique.
Lenovo
We’ve seen phones with pop-up front cameras before, but the Legion Phone Duel is a bit different – this one is mounted on the side. Overseas gamers can buy a Legion Phone Duel with 12GB or 16GB of LPDDR5 RAM (both options are excessive) and 256GB or 512GB of UFS 3.1 fast storage. Oh, and yes, it has two 2,500 mAh battery cells. Why? Perhaps the real question is why not?

Microsoft Xbox and Surface business continues to grow amid pandemic
And its cloud business continues to boom.
Microsoft is weathering the coronavirus pandemic well. Amid strong revenue of $ 38 billion (13 percent more than last year), the company’s fourth-quarter earnings report revealed that its Xbox business grew 65 percent from the previous year. Meanwhile, sales of surface laptops increased 28 percent.

Review: Sony’s ZV-1 is a powerful portable vlogging camera
For beginners, it is also incredibly forgiving.
Engadget
The ZV-1 is Sony’s first RX100 series camera designed specifically for vlogging. According to Steve Dent, it does that job well thanks to a lightweight body, high-quality built-in microphone, drop-down screen, best-in-class autofocus, and excellent image quality.
The 24-70mm lens is sharp, but should be wider due to 25 percent cut when using electronic stabilization. It also lacks a true touchscreen and a headphone port. Other than that, if you’re looking to get out of a smartphone or just want something simple, it does the job almost perfectly.
