One thought on “Privacy policy”

  1. Вечерком 14 сентября состоялась привычная
    осенняя демонстрация от корпорации Эпл, где были представлены желанные новинки:
    серия телефонов Айфон 13, Айпад, Айпад мини и Эпл Вотч серия 7.

    1. Дизайн телефонов претерпел небольших изменений:
    наиболее ощутимое зрительное расхождение
    – сниженный вырез в экране на передней
    части смартфона благодаря смещения разговорного динамика теснее
    к краю корпуса.
