Want to go fishing but can't go out because of the movement control order? Well, if you have a Nintendo Switch, there's a temporary fix for you!

In early April, we have reported that our government was considering a drive-through or online Ramadan Bazaar. Well, turns out that it is true all along and Grab Malaysia will be helping out on that. Here's how Grab will bring you a festive Ramadan season at your home. 

OPPO has recently unveiled a poster of the OPPO Ace2 and it is expected to come equipped with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 865 chipset, and a quad-camera setup in the rear. In terms of the release date, the aforementioned smartphone will be launched in China on 13 April 2020 and there's no information on whether it'll be available for purchase in the global market.

If you're looking for a new game to play in the next few days, a good way is to browse Steam or the Microsoft Store often. And it turns out there's a pretty good third-person shooter that's available for free. Gears 5 is currently available to download and play on Steam, giving you a chance to blast some aliens and relieve some stress without having to pay for it.

In light of Zoom taking the spotlight for the wrong reasons and fixing issues on-the-go, it seems that barely anyone has paid any attention to Microsoft Teams at all.

Donations continue to pour in from around the country to aid those at the frontlines and hot spots of the COVID-19 pandemic in Malaysia. Among them is e-wallet company Boost, which has been using its apps to help gather donations from Malaysians.

In this Movement Control Order period, the usage of social messaging has increased tenfold (I'm just exaggerating, but you get the point) and it's also the perfect time to chat with your love interest (#hinthint). But prior to this, Facebook was working with NPE Team and just released a new app called Tuned strictly for couples. It's also only for iOS so nope, no Android version for that.

For those who have a family, chances are your kids are just as bored as you are during the movement control order (MCO). TV is often the easiest way to keep them out of the way, but it's important to have control over what they're watching.

Much of the focus for Apple has been on its upcoming iPhone SE 2020 and iPhone 12 series smartphones.

A source has revealed the retail pricing for Apple's new headphones and AirPods, along with the estimated launch timing as well.
