Acer is not the first brand that springs to mind when shopping for a USB charger. The company is best known for laptops and monitors, but like most of the big PC brands, it has been quietly expanding its accessories range, and the Acer OPD622 100W GAN charger is one of the more interesting products…
I have reviewed quite a few clip-on earbuds now, including the Soundcore Aeroclip, the Soundcore C40i and the SoundPeats Pearl Clip. It is a segment that has boomed in popularity in recent years. While I don’t wear them regularly myself, this design is by far my partner’s preferred option. She finds them much more comfortable…
AVM has released a new FRITZ! Lab beta for the FRITZ!Box 5690 Pro that adds Matter support ahead of the official FRITZ!OS 8.50 release. This is the first FRITZ!Box model to gain Matter bridge functionality directly through the router itself, rather than requiring a separate FRITZ!Smart Gateway. I reviewed the FRITZ!Box 5690 Pro back in…
It has been a while since I reviewed an action camera, and the market has changed a lot in that time. GoPro, DJI and Insta360 dominate the conversation, but their flagship models now cost as much as a decent mid-range phone. At the other end of the market, there is a long tail of budget…
I have reviewed a lot of great products from Flexispot, including the Flexispot BS14 Ergonomic Mesh Office Chair (which I still use at the MSP I work at) and the Flexispot E7Q Odin 4-Leg Standing Desk, which is their largest desk that I paired with a massive 200cm x 90cm bamboo tabletop, and I absolutely…
As someone who travels a lot, I love a universal adaptor; they are so convenient, covering Europe, America and Asia rather than requiring multiple adaptors for different regions. I also regularly use them at home so I can use devices with EU plugs (normally review samples). Most of these devices also come with USB ports,…
ORICO has announced that its CyberData NAS Series moves into full retail availability today, 28 July 2026, selling through the company’s official online store. The range consists of four models, the all-flash CyberData CF6, the hybrid-storage CyberData CF56 and CF56 Pro, and the flagship CyberData CF1000, spanning configurations from a compact six-slot solid-state system up…
I have previously reviewed the Vantrue Element 2 Dual Dash Cam and thought it was excellent, leaving it installed in my old Corsa for a couple of years. It was reliable, the footage was consistently usable, and it never gave me a reason to think about it, which is about the highest praise a dash…
Mobile shooters get a bad rap, and a lot of it is fair. The biggest names in the genre (Call of Duty Mobile, Free Fire, Warzone Mobile) are designed around twitch reflexes, fast time-to-kill and adrenaline-fuelled chaos. Fun, but not tactical. Tactical shooters are a different breed. The ones that count test your map awareness,…
I have previously reviewed the Jimmy H9 Pro Cordless Vacuum, and vacuums appear to be the main thing the brand Jimmy specialises in. However, one of their most recent product launches is the Jimmy R9 Pro Smart Water Station, which is a high-spec machine that specialises in reverse osmosis water filtering, with 7-stage filtering, and…
