Following his durability test which revealed a strange dual screen protector, YouTuber Zach from JerryRigAll dived deep … inside the Galaxy S21 Ultra. If you’re wondering what’s hiding under all that glass, here’s your chance to find out without destroying your own unit. It’s pretty expensive after all, so definitely don’t try this at home.

  Brian Spencer Going back home to the UK for the holidays really brought home to me how very differently my home and adopted countries have fared during the pandemic. When I tell them, old friends can scarcely believe how successful Việt Nam has been in averting the disastrous consequences most of the western world’s nations have experienced. It truly has been a wonder how well both the health and economic fallout have been contained. Naturally, Việt Nam has not been entirely untouched. The global nature of this scourge wrought huge disruption on trade, supply chains…
