The latest technology news from around the world
One of the more interesting products I encountered at IFA was the Netgear Meural Canvas II, and it is the first time I have been made aware of this product range. If I am honest, I can’t say it is something that appeals to me, but what they have achieved is impressive. It takes the…
In just 11 days, Huawei will launch their next flagship phone range, the Mate 30 series. As usual, Huawei likes to announce a few more things along with this, and the Huawei Watch GT 2 will be one of them. Huawei has released a clip-on Weibo confirming this, but have not revealed much else apart…
Honor didn’t announce much at IFA this year, there was the £30 Honor Band 5, a demo of the already announced Honor TV which we don’t know if is coming to the west or not, then PocketVision. PocketVision is probably the most interesting of the launches, while I don’t cover software a lot, it is…
During the Kirin 990 keynote, Huawei announced their new FreeBuds 3, the new flagship wireless earphones of the year. It uses a delicate earphone design and comes with a unique, round case. Huawei FreeBuds 3 provides users with more comfortable wearing experience and a nice grip. It has two colour options: black and white. As…
Access points are always wired normally, but if wiring up your office (or home) is impractical, or cost-inefficient then the new WAC564 access point from Netgear could be the perfect solution. Expanding their Insight range of networking gear, which is cloud managed from a user-friendly mobile app, the WAC564 is probably the first mesh WiFi…
I love Netgear, I love Mesh Wi-Fi, and I love Wi-Fi 6. So I have been quite excited about the new RBK852 WiFi 6 Tri-band Mesh System from Netgear, however, you should expect some sticker shock. If you thought WiFi 6 routers were expensive then the RBK852 is going to make your toes curl. Early…
If the £999 Fenix 6X Solar is too rich for your blood, and all you want is an affordable fitness tracker to keep track of your steps and basic fitness goals, then the £29.99 HONOR Band is hard to fault. HONOR today unveiled the HONOR Band 5, a stylish and practical accessory for those looking…
Today, Netatmo expand their smart home product line up to include a new Smart Alarm System with Camera. The system is sold in three parts allowing you to set it up and expand it as you need. The below Smart Indoor Camera indoor sounds exactly like the existing Smart Indoor Camera which was previously called…
Following on from the Garmin Venu announcement, I can (and will) copy and paste the details of the Vivoactive 4. Functionally the two watches are almost identical, however, Garmin has used the Venu name to launch its first watch with AMOLED. This seems like a sensible move to me, allowing them to try out AMOLED…
It has been rumoured for quite a while that Garmin will launch an AMOLED based device. Some people thought the Fenix 6 or Vivoactive 4 may get it, but Garmin did something more sensible, and create a new range. For all intents and purposes, the new Garmin watch is the same as the just announced…
All those leaks I wasn’t too sure about, were pretty much accurate. Today Garmin launched a new watch to their line-up, the Garmin Venu. They probably could have called it a Vivoactive 4 Pro or something, as technically it is the same watch, but different display. I think it is a sensible move from Garmin,…
Today Acer was one of the first companies to hold a press event for IFA. They announced lots of new products, so many it is hard to cover them all in individual posts while away at the event! The below is an overview of the new launches. Highlights of the launch include the new Swift…
