M5

Banana Pi has introduced the BPI-CM7, a new computer-on-module built around the Allwinner H618 chip and positioned as a lower-cost alternative to the Raspberry Pi CM5. Documentation is already available on the Banana Pi site, with support for Android and Linux. Makers in the single-board computing community are sharing the launch and comparing it to Raspberry Pi's module.

Apple's MacBook Pro lineup is reportedly approaching a redesign featuring OLED displays, with the current M5 Pro model seeing price cuts of $600. The discount suggests retailers are clearing stock ahead of the redesigned machines, which are expected to arrive in 2026.

A section of the M5 near Worcester has been blocked following a crash, causing significant delays for drivers. The Worcester News is running live updates on the closure as traffic builds on the carriageway. Motorists in the area are being warned to expect disruption and consider alternative routes while the incident is dealt with.
