Volkswagen is the world's largest carmaker. Business Insider reports the company returned to profit in the third quarter. This is thanks to surging demand for luxury cars such as Porsche and Audi in western Europe and China. VW's chief financial officer, Frank Witter, warned that "the coronavirus remains a central problem." VW said it's full-year 2020 profit would be "severely lower" than in 2019. The profits would still be in "positive territory" after a second-quarter loss of 1.7 billion euros ($1.99 billion). A series of cost-cutting measures launched earlier this year helped VW's performance during the third quarter.
To extend battery life at the cost of speed or not extend battery life? We learned earlier this month that iOS 9 will give your iPhone one extra hour of battery life, and a "Low Power Mode" will give you up to three more hours. In exchange for that extended battery life, though, your iPhone will throttle performance, according to testing done by MacRumors. The Apple-focused blog ran Geekbench 3, a benchmark test that measures a device's processor power, on an iPhone 6 Plus and iPhone 5S.
