| An in-depth review of the iPhone XS and XS Max, the return of Twitter's chronological timeline and new plans to bring Android into cars. Here's your Daily Crunch for September 18, 2018. 1. Review: iPhone XS, XS Max and the power of long-term thinking According to my boss Matthew Panzarino, the iPhone XS "proves one thing definitively: that the iPhone X was probably one of the most ambitious product bets of all time." In other words, you could argue that the new iPhone's lack of attention-grabbing features is less a drawback, and more a reflection of how aggressive Apple was being last year when it released the X. 
2. Twitter is bringing back the chronological timeline If you're one of those weirdos (like me) who kind of enjoys the algorithmic timeline, don't worry — you should be able to switch back-and-forth between the two. 3. iOS 12 makes your phone faster than ever Even if you're not buying a new device, your iPhone experience is about to get better. 4. Google partners with Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi to put Android into millions of vehicles The alliance's next-generation infotainment system and dashboard displays will use Android and launch in 2021. Drivers will be able to access Google's maps, app store and voice assistant from their vehicle's dashboards. 5. Amazon's 'Marvelous Mrs. Maisel' wins big at the Emmys While Amazon's new series dominated the comedy categories, Netflix titles took home plenty of trophies, too. 6. Mozilla's Firefox Reality web browser is now available Mozilla's vision of a VR-first web browser is ready for consumers to download and judge. You use it entirely within a VR headset, visiting URLs, searching and otherwise browsing the 2D and 3D internet. 7. Postmates raises another $300M, reportedly valued at $1.2B Postmates says that it's completing "millions" of deliveries every month and is profitable in 90 percent of its markets — and that over the past four years, gross margins have "improved dramatically to nearly 50%." |
