Huawei Matebook 16s in for review

The Huawei Matebook 16s was launched in China back in May, and earlier this week it went global. The company was kind enough to send us a sample for review purposes, and it is finally with us.

WhatsApp for iOS will let you hide your "last seen" and "online" status

WABetaInfo is here with another sneak peek of what appears to be a future version of WhatsApp with extended privacy functionality.
