Lenovo P2, one of (so I heard) UK’s most famous budget phones, is not being sold anymore. P2 was a TechRadar exclusive, and the carrier has recently informed the public that it will not continue selling the device. After being available for half a year for the price of £199.99, only two units of the phone are left in the whole of Great Britain (!). These two units can be bought from Amazon for a much less considerable price of £360.Taking even a budget phone off the shelves after mere six months seems like a rash thing to do.

Apple might start making its own OLED panels

As you have probably heard, Apple depends on Samsung to provide a sufficient amount of OLED displays for it to use in its iPhones. Well, it seems like Apple has had just about enough of having to pay its competition.
