Instead of announcing its new range of phones in one go, Motorola has been spacing them out. First we had the Moto G8 Plus and now the Moto G8 Power is official so we’ve got all the details. It’s a rather odd strategy considering the G7, and previous ranges, were unveiled together as you might expect. After all, how is anyone supposed to decide which one to buy when other models are still on the way....

Napoleon has fascinated Ridley Scott for years. No wonder – the famous Frenchman was a complex figure who greatly impacted 18th- and 19th-century Europe. In his new film, the director wanted to create a multi-dimensional portrait of Napoleon, focusing not only on his military and political achievements, but also on his psychology. Scott set himself the task of portraying the French emperor as a brilliant politician and strategist, as well as a narcissistic conqueror and a brutal tyrant....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict Need for Speed Heat is a mixed bag. It’s hard not to be dragged into Heat’s world of neon-soaked street races, fast cars and a pulsing soundtrack. Look closer, and NFS has a forgettable story, a clumsy drift mechanic and cars that handle like shopping carts. If you’ve got nothing else on, this will amuse you, but I’d probably recommend something like Burnout Paradise’s remaster to those after a more arcade feel, while Forza Horizon 4 has more to offer the serious racer, even if the Scottish countryside isn’t as exciting as not-Miami....

Ah, the cesspit of reality TV. It’s always been a genre that dominates the entertainment landscape, with audiences glued to the lives of seemingly ‘normal’ people as they navigate their way through general life and/or a competition, with cameras watching their every move. There are many twists on the reality show genre. There are the various dating shows – the obsession with Love Island continues to rage on. Then, there’s the talent competition sort – driven by the megalomaniac Simon Cowell with The X Factor machine....

Cybercriminals are coming up with ever-more inventive ways to con you out of your money. And this latest Facebook scam, uncovered by Cybernews , is more cunning than most. The way it works is that the scammers buy hacked Facebook login details from the dark web. They sign into the account and send a message to the user’s friends.

Most VPN providers are able to offer thousands of servers in dozens of countries because they rent them. That’s a lot cheaper than buying the server hardware and then paying on top of that a fee to each datacentre where each server is located to give those servers mains power and a fast, reliable internet connection. In principle, renting servers is fine as a VPN provider will install custom software, including the operating system, which only it can access....

A leaked image of the Nothing Phone (3) has given us our best look yet at Nothing’s stylish new flagship smartphone , but something appears to be missing.
