A new report suggests the device will feature a hybrid aluminum and titanium frame, combining the strength and durability of titanium with the lightweight benefits of aluminum.

The High Court has granted local businessman Tinaapi Nyawo bail pending appeal after challenging his conviction and three-year sentence, which was handed down by former regional magistrate Clever Tsikwa. Nyawo had been convicted of fraud involving a US$65,000 vehicle and sentenced to five years, with two years suspended, leaving him to serve a three-year term.
