Reviews of all the latest gadgets and technology
The TCL 10 series is the follow up to the TCL Plex launched at IFA last year, with the new phones being more of an iteration of the Plex rather than brand-new phones. The TCL 10 Pro and the affordable TCL 10L will be launched UK Week 23 (week commencing 1st of June) with Ireland…
TCL is a massive company that many regular consumers may not be aware of; they are one of the biggest consumer electronics producers in the world and the third-largest television manufacturer by market share. They have been developing mobile phones for years, but in partnerships with other brands, this includes Alcatel which itself is owned…
I was very impressed with the Black Shark 2 last year. It helped that it was easily one of the cheapest flagship phones to launch at that point in the year. They have no followed this up with two models, the affordable standard Black Shark, and a more premium Pro model with a gigantic display…
[Update 12/05/2020] Ring reached out to me to confirm some of the privacy aspects of their system. I have copied the full statement at the bottom of the review Smart home surveillance and smart doorbells have boomed in the past few years with dozens of options available on Amazon. However, if you are looking for…
Today the Realme 6 Pro launches in the UK alongside the flagship Realme X50 Pro and both are superb phones. The Realme 6 series has had a considerable bump from the previous 5 series which used an SD665 in the standard model and an SD712 in the Pro model. The new Pro model has a…
The Android tablet market is a bit of a strange one, big brands have all but given up on tablets, and there are barely any high-end tablets on the market with only Samsung and Huawei developing them. On the lower end of the spectrum, there is a huge number of options and they remain popular…
I loved both the Realme 6 and Pro, though it is only the Realme 6 that has been launched so far. While we don’t have word on how much the Realme 6 Pro will cost, it looks very likely that the Realme 6 will be the stand out choice, balancing features and performance with an…
I have had lifelong sleep problems, and I am a very light sleeper that also overheats very easily. So as soon as the weather heats up, my sleep quality reduces. Being in the north of the UK we don’t have air-con so for hot nights we have to resort to a fan. Unfortunately, fans can…
You can get pretty much anything app-controlled nowadays; there is even an Alexa controlled microwave. So it is no surprise there is an app-controlled pedestal fan if anything I was surprised at the lack of competing options. I specifically bought this fan to be able to use it when I go to sleep. I am…
I don’t normally bother with cable reviews as there is little to write about them and they are quite boring. Volutz are a little different though, they make some big claims. Their range of braided cables which are available in USB-C, microUSB and Apple MFi Certified Lightning Cable are all tested for over 50,000 worth…
I have reviewed quite a few consumer-orientated Wi-Fi 6 devices now, but the commercial side of the market seems to be lagging behind as brands were reluctant to release commercial-grade equipment until the Wi-Fi Alliance finalised the standard. One of the first products to market also happens to be one of the cheapest, the EnGenius…
With many laptops easily costing over £1,000, if you travel or commute a lot with your laptop, investing in a protective bag of some form is a necessity. I have had a laptop screen crack while walking to a meeting in the past, which was both extremely inconvenient and very expensive. The STM 28L Myth…
