Mobile Driver’s License, Disc-less Xbox, and The End of First Dates

CNET reports that 2020 could be the year we start using phones to replace our drivers license. Android phones that are compatible with Qualcomm’s high end snapdragon 865 chip will support the new android R feature. The phone will securely save your drivers license and other ID’s. Fun fact — phones running the snapdragon 865 chip will also be capable of powering 200 megapixel photos. According to the website Kotaku, Microsoft is STILL rumored to be releasing a disc less Xbox next year. This is all said to be a part of Microsoft’s project Scarlett, which might consist of a new high powered console to take on the PlayStation 5, as well as a lower cost, cloud gaming only Xbox. What do you think? Would you be down to save some money for a more casual gaming Xbox experience?
