Motorola shows off latest version of its bendy concept phone

It hasn't said if it plans to commercialize the device

Motorola has shown off an amazing bendable phone that you can slap on your wrist and wear as a massive smartwatch.

Unveiled this week at the Lenovo Tech World 2023 event, the bendable phone-smartwatch hybrid concept reportedly stole the show.

The company said the device’s adaptive display “can be adjusted from a standard Android phone experience in a flat position to being wrapped for a wrist-worn experience, or positioned in several stand modes.”

Transforming from a handheld into a wrist-based device could appeal to a number of groups, including athletes who want to keep their phone with them but don’t want to hold it in their hand or carry it in a bag.

Oh, and if the design looks familiar, that’s because an earlier version was shown off by parent company Lenovo back in 2016 ...

The company behind the popular password manager said in a post on its website that following what it described as a “thorough” investigation, it was able to conclude that no 1Password data had been accessed.

Elaborating, it explained that after detecting suspicious activity on September 29, it “immediately terminated the activity, investigated, and found no compromise of user data or other sensitive systems, either employee-facing or user-facing.”

In response to the incident, 1Password says it has reduced the number of “super admin” users, implemented tighter login rules for admins, and taken other measures designed to further improve its security.

While password managers like 1Password are still considered to be one of the best ways to manage online security, users’ confidence in the system was rocked earlier this year after a high-profile hack targeted LastPass, another popular service ...

Apple's next event promises 'scary fast' reveals

The tech giant looks set to announce its next-gen chip and updated Mac computers

Just over a month after announcing the new iPhone, Apple is now expected to unveil refreshed Mac computers.

The company has just given notice of a special event at 5 p.m. PT on Monday, October 30.

Apple will live-stream the event on its website and via Apple TV ...
