What’s the problem? First, a quick explanation of the two flaws which, put simply, put your private data at risk. Meltdown affects Intel processors and Arm’s A-75 chip.

It stands for Basic Input/Output System and is a chip which enables your PC or laptop to perform the basic start up operations before Windows – or a different operating system – loads.

As expect, the HTC One M9 was unveiled at MWC 2015 in Barcelona just hours before the Samsung Galaxy S6 but Sony simply brought along its new Xperia M4 Aqua and Xperia Z4 Tablet.
