Following on from the Redmi 8A launch, the Xiaomi Redmi 8 tweaks the spec a little including an additional camera, more RAM and new storage options. The phone is powered by the Snapdragon 439 chipset just like the Redmi 8A but the RAM options have been upgraded to 4GB RAM and up to 64GB storage….
It is just over a week until this years Maker Faire even in Rome and this is the largest even of its kind in Europe. The fair will start on Friday, open to school groups only in the morning then fully opening at 2 pm. This year there will be seven themed pavilions for an…
As someone that loses my keys and wallet on a regular basis, Tile is my saviour. They are the market leader in Bluetooth trackers and for good reason, their products work well and are easy to use. I have previously used Mint Tracker and found the alternative product nowhere near good enough for its intended…
During my fitness journey, I started with fitness tracking with the Fitbit Ultra which was a clip in device offering very basic step counting, followed by the Flex and then the original Charge HR, finally migrating to Garmin and recently the £600 Fenix 6. It has been an expensive evolution of tech that is for…
Next week Realme will launch in Europe officially at an event in Madrid where they will launch the Realme 5 Pro, X2 and the X2 Pro. With the Realme 5 Pro and X2, they have already launched in India so we know everything there is to know about them, and Realme has been kind enough…
I have reviewed a few EZVIZ products in recent months, their Floodlight camera was particularly good, and the indoor camera is working well for me in my garage. The most recent product is the Full HD Outdoor Cam which is technically a wireless camera but requires a power cable, then wireless for data connectivity. For…
I have covered a lot of this years Acer gaming laptops, including the ridiculous Predator Triton 900 and the fantastic Acer Nitro 7. Priced at £1,099.00 is the Acer Predator Helios 300 better than Acer Nitro 7 which is the same price. Specification CPU: 9th gen Intel® Core™ i5-9300H quad-core Memory: 8GB of DDR4 RAM GPU: GeForce GTX…
My review of the Honor Band 5 is due to go live on Tuesday, and currently, I think it is the best affordable fitness tracker on the market (with UK availability). It’s one competing product is the Xiaomi Mi Smart Band 4, and in the UK there is not a great deal of differences between…
With October having so many phone releases, all of which will be using Qualcomm chipsets, I thought it would be a good idea to see how each one compares. Google launched the Pixel 4 on October 15th which will use the Snapdragon 855, on the same day we have Realme X2 Pro which will feature…
Sony announced the new Xperia 5 back at IFA this year, while the name convention sounds confusing this is essentially their compact phone of the year offering the same spec as the Xperia 1 but in a more hand-friendly format. While it is technically a 6.1-inch phone, the 21:9 CinemaWide display means it is narrower…
The Google Pixel 4 is due to be launched on the 15th of October, the following day Realme will launch their first true flagship phone the Realme X2 Pro. Over the years Google and their Pixel phones have bucked the trend of big specs, instead of optimising their software to get the best out of…
The one big feature the Fenix 6 launched with is PacePro which allows users to set a pacing strategy that takes into account elevation. PacePro coaches you in real-time so you can slow and speed up your run as necessary. I plan to use this for the Chester Marathon on Sunday and I hope it will…
