Sony's new flagship smartphone, the Xperia 1 II (pronounced "mark two"), will ship in the US starting July 24th for $1,199, the company announced. Pre-orders start on June 1st. And if you pre-order by June 28th, you'll get a free pair of Sony WF-1000XM3 noise canceling earbuds.

A major feature of the Xperia 1 II is its 12-megapixel triple-camera array, which Sony says can shoot up 20 fps in burst mode, make AF/AE calculations up to 60 times per second, and autofocus on the eyes of humans and animals for portrait shots, among other features. The phone also comes with the Photography Pro and Cinematography Pro apps, which give you more manual control over the camera settings for your photos and videos.

The Xperia 1 II has a 4K HDR OLED...

The ‘Knight Rider’ theme song played on the cello is the best kind of Gen-X nostalgia

The 1980s show Knight Rider was about a guy who drove a talking car and solved crimes. I think. I (sort of) remember watching a young(ish) David Hasselhoff argue with the car, a 1982 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am named KITT (Knight Industries Two Thousand), voiced by William Daniels. KITT had a Cylon-like red light on its (his?) front grill which made the car seem vaguely menacing. Knight Rider was amazing '80s television and as such, had an equally spectacular theme song (sidebar: I would like us to get back to TV theme songs that explain the entire plot of the show either in the lyrics or via a voiceover like this one did. I miss you, 1980s).

London-based cellist Samara Ginsberg, who among other things, produces "virtuoso arrangements of...

One of the new streaming shows I've been looking forward to most, Netflix's Space Force with Steve Carell, debuts this week. I definitely need something funny and smart in the lineup— I started watching I Know This Much is True and now catching up on Ozark, so a less morbid/bleak show will be a welcome change.

Here are three shows on the lighter side (or at least, the less-dystopian side) coming to streaming this week:

Hannah Gadsby: Douglas (Netflix, May 26th)

Australian comedian Hannah Gadsby, probably best known for her stunning, Peabody Award-winning standup show Nanette, is back, bringing her latest comedy standup show Douglas to Netflix (fwiw, Douglas is the name of one of her dogs).

Ramy, Season Two (Hulu, May 29th)

New jailbreak tool works on Apple’s just-released iOS 13.5

A new tool by hacking group Unc0ver can jailbreak iOS 13.5, the just-released version of Apple's mobile operating system, Wired reported. The group says the jailbreak, which works on iOS 11 and higher, is built on a zero-day vulnerability, doesn't drain a device's battery life, and doesn't affect the use of Apple services or undermine the iOS sandbox security, according to Wired.

Unc0ver's lead developer told Wired the jailbreak adds exceptions to existing rules, and "enables reading new jailbreak files and parts of the filesystem that contain no user data." The jailbreak tool is not open source, and the group didn't say which vulnerability in iOS it exploited to build the tool.

Jailbreaking gives a user more control over a device's...
