Once the EcoSport was the creator and undisputed leader in the subcompact SUV segment. But with the arrival of the new generation and new competitors, it went from glory to oblivion in a heartbeat. Well, Ford claims the way and presents the 2018 model that presumes a series of best that promise to return the lost protagonism. Regarding the aesthetic changes, these were already detailed at the time of its global presentation during the 2016 Salon de los Angeles. However, it should be noted that, unlike other markets, the Ford EcoSport 2018 has the particularity of keeping the rim of spare hanging on the tailgate. Among the novelties of the interior can be mentioned the bi-tone skin, the improvement in materials, assemblies, the electric sunroof and the redesigned console. By the way, in terms of safety we find elements such as brakes with ABS, anchor for children's ISOFIX chairs, as well as front, side and curtain type air bags. In terms of equipment there are differences between the different versions. Thus, Impulse variants have a 4.2 "screen; the Trend 6.5 "(both with SYNC and Applink), while the Titanium equips an 8-inch with SYNC 3 compatible with Apple CarPlay and AndroidAuto. This version also includes a satellite navigation system. By the way, depending on the finish the aluminum wheels can be 16 or 17 inches. Curiously, the EcoSport Titanium has speeding alert, which emits a brief sound to warn the driver that reached 120 km / h, this is simply auditory and does not control the vehicle, but allows drivers to be aware of driving at a safe speed. Mechanically, the Impulse and Trend variants coupled with a five-speed manual transmission are driven by a new 1.5-liter three-cylinder engine capable of producing 121 Hp and 111 lb-ft of torque, offering a fuel consumption of 17 km / l in the combined cycle. For its part, the versions with a six-speed automatic transmission with Trend and Titanium steering wheel paddles have a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with 164 Hp and 146 lb.-ft. of torque. By the way, despite the similarity of relations, this transmission has nothing to do with the previous double clutch and is much more related to that used in models such as Escape and Fusion. Finally, before knowing the prices and versions, it is worth mentioning that this model is no longer imported from Brazil but from India, a country from where it is exported to other latitudes such as Europe.

Defense Minister Vladimir Padrino López rejected and lamented the ambush of a military commission in Amazonas state, in which three members of the Bolivarian National Guard (GNB) were killed and 10 others wounded. "The FANB has been viciously and cowardly attacked by armed paramilitary groups that intend to operate in our territory. It has been attacked as a result of an arrest of a group of people, of 9 people, that occurred Amazonas, "said Padrino Lopez in an address to the country on Monday. The minister criticized the presence of armed groups in the country. "In Venezuela there is no place for armed groups, outside the law, of paramilitary groups and we strongly reject the inability of the Colombian State not to control their groups, their violence and their drug trafficking." He asserted that there are several events that occurred on the border with Colombia, which are the product of the "internal war" of that country. "The Colombian state has not been able to resolve over more than 60 years of internal war and that everything places Venezuela as a victim of military aggression by violent groups that intend to pass by," he said. He noted that they have made various requests to the government of Colombia to dialogue. "Irresponsibly the government of Colombia has refused to discuss the issues that are common. It is necessary to communicate. However we have not been able to talk with the Colombian authorities, it has not been possible, "he said.

It was one of the requests most demanded by the fans. One year and eight months after the premiere of the console, YouTube will be released on Nintendo Switch next November 8. It seems a trivial news, since nowadays YouTube is in all the sites, including the PS4 and Xbox One consoles, or the Nintendo, Wii-U and 3DS machines. But is not. Because so far Nintendo had refused to include applications on Nintendo Switch other than games, claiming that it is a machine to play. That's why the premiere of YouTube on Nintendo Switch is an important news, because it marks a change of direction with respect to the apps that we will be able to see in Switch in the future. This release fixes a problem like last week, when Switch users could not see the streaming of the new Super Smash Bros Ultimate Direct from the console itself. And the video took more than a day to appear on the news channel of the Switch. Until now Nintendo Switch had only received a video app, that of Hulu, but only in the United States. Also some local version in Japan. Users had been asking for the premiere of YouTube on Nintendo Switch for a long time, since many people use it to watch gameplays and unboxings of the games. Although Nintendo has not yet made it official, on the Nintendo America website the YouTube app appears with a release date on November 8: Taking into account that we talk about the official website, everything indicates that the premiere is final, at least in the United States. Hopefully it will also do it in Europe. Nintendo Switch packs with Super Smash Bros Ultimate, Fortnite and Pokémon The arrival of YouTube to Nintendo Switch opens the doors to other similar apps such as Twitch, Netflix or HBO. The hybrid concept of Switch would allow you to do things like watch a series of Netflix lying in bed, in Portable mode, and continue instantly on the TV, introducing the console into the dock. Or keep watching your favorite series without stopping it, even if you have to go to the bathroom ... No technical data has been filtered, but the logical thing is that YouTube videos on Nintendo Switch can be enjoyed at 1080p resolution in TV mode, and at 720p in Portable mode.

It seems that we will soon see an iPhone with 5G despite the fact that this standard will begin to see in most Android devices that are released from the beginning of 2019. Surely you've already started listening to different mobile operators about the arrival of 5G, something that will translate into faster download speeds in mobile data. If you plan to purchase an Android device in 2019 it is likely that you are already compatible with this standard, but if instead you are looking for an iPhone it will be waiting for those who launch in 2020. And is that according to the latest information, Apple's intention is to bring the 5G to the iPhone in 2020. For this Cupertino will use the Intel 81615G modem confirming, in this way, they want to get away from Qualcomm and use Intel as its sole provider for mobile modems. Even with the above, they comment that Apple is not happy with the progress that Intel has made with the 8060 modems. Apparently Intel can not reduce heat dissipation with its latest chips and this will be very important for those operators who plan to use a spectrum of millimeter waves between 30 and 300 gigahertz for their 5G networks. Another problem that Apple is very concerned about is the battery life. And is that any type of generation of additional heat would cause a decrease in battery life, something we saw with the first 4G LTE phones where practically the battery died at two or three years. From Intel want to transfer tranquility and promise Apple that they will solve this problem very fast. In any case, if Intel fails, those in Cupertino have a plan B: MediaTek.

The latest beta version of WhatsApp for Android has added an interesting feature: the ability to respond privately in group chats. This is a feature that is very much in demand by users, since it simplifies and speeds up communication, since it is not necessary to leave the group conversation.
