HP has announced a new Dragonfly Pro Chromebook at CES, though the computer maker hasn’t yet said how much it will cost. 2022’s Elite Dragonfly started at $1,149/£1,299 – already extremely expensive for a Chromebook – but the Dragonfly Pro name suggests this new model will cost even more. Google’s Chrome OS has a long association with budget laptops but HP seems determined to change that. HP says pricing will be available closer to its spring 2023 release, with the company itself the only confirmed retailer at this stage....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict The MateBook 14 might be a slightly chunkier and heavier version of the flagship X Pro, but the weight is a small price to pay Considering that this laptop is a much cheaper option. What you lose (or gain, really) in weight, is made up for by additional ports, better performance and longer battery life. You only really need to pass on this if Thunderbolt is an absolute must....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Pros Powerful platform Gorgeous screen Useful keyboard accessory Excellent battery life Cons Huawei AppGallery lacks many mainstream apps Sideloading applications is clunky Our Verdict Huawei typically delivers a slick product and software combination. While there is little wrong with the hardware, for those invested in the Google infrastructure transitioning to Huawei-controlled cloud services and applications in the new HarmonyOS won’t feel like an upgrade path....

Series and films such as The Bear , Only Murders in the Building and Poor Things were already housed on Disney+ UK under the Star label. Essentially, this will be rebranded to Hulu, unifying the app across the pond. If you’re in America, things work a little differently. Hulu is still on the Disney+ website and app, but the content isn’t bundled into a full subscription like it is in the UK....

I’ve tested a lot of air fryers. At any given time, I have two or three air fryers lined up on my kitchen counter, giving the room the warm, welcoming vibe of an appliances showroom. As I spent more time using them for work, I broke the habit of automatically switching on my oven when it came time to cook – for simple tasks, at least. I started to wonder if I really needed to use my oven at all....

When Samsung was gearing up to launch the Galaxy Z Fold 7, it teased that this would be the brand’s first ‘Ultra’ foldable. With the same chipset and main camera as the brand’s top-of-the-line bar phone, that seems like a fair claim. However, foldable phones have never quite matched their non-folding siblings in the camera department. The concept of a book-style foldable requires slimness; otherwise, no one would be keen on carrying one....

The time has come once again to visit that Australian jungle retreat and watch a few famous folks fighting for survival. I’m A Celebrity is returning this autumn with new challenges – and a new celebrity line-up.

At a Glance Our Verdict Realistically the extra £80 for Touch ID and a gold colour on the iPad mini 3 isn’t worth it. Unless you’re happy to spend £479 on the 128 GB capacity, we recommend the now cheaper and almost identical iPad mini 2. Best Prices Today: Apple iPad mini 3 Last week Apple announced the iPad mini 3 so you’re probably wondering what’s different compared to the iPad mini 2 including price, specs and features....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict IPVanish has some great qualities for beginners and families including an easy-to-use interface and up to 10 simultaneous connections, but it has some major flaws. It’s based in the US, its support isn’t very speedy and we had trouble connecting to streaming services like Netflix and BBC iPlayer. For the price, we think you’ll have better luck elsewhere. IPVanish gets off to a good start, with an easy-to-install app and a visual tutorial to help you get going....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict The JmGo View is expensive, but it’s a brilliant idea and incredibly well designed. This is tech you would show off in your home or office, but freed up to show off in anyone’s home or office and anywhere else you might go. Battery life is on the short side for movie nights, and at times you might find the mouse-less remote unable to navigate certain apps, but this portable projector is otherwise an awesome gadget....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict The Jumper EZBook 3 Plus is a decent laptop for what you pay, but you can get much better value when buying Chinese laptops. Despite its smaller screen and lower storage capacity we actually prefer the Pro model, and that costs just half the price. Nevertheless this is a capable laptop for everyday computing tasks, provided you don’t throw anything too intensive at it....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict It has a huge battery and a huge screen, making it a perfect fit for some customers and unwieldy for others. Whatever your take, the Leagoo Shark 1 offers fantastic value for money, if only its general performance lived up to its battery power.

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict The LG G5 is one of the most radical phones to come along in a while and we’re glad the firm has shaken things up with the modular design. The G5 is innovative and interesting with unique features but it’s a shame the design and build feels unfinished in areas. It’s a top-notch device which can hold its own with the best phones in performance and cameras, but it’s LG’s modular design which is the real selling point here....

At a Glance Our Verdict With the G6 and G6 Plus being virtually identical save for extra storage, plus Hi-res audio and Qi charging it’s hard to pick one over the other until we know the price of the Plus. The DAC and extra built-in storage is definitely a bonus, but as the G6 is already an excellent phone LG will need to offer solid value for money if people are to be tempted with the upgrade....

The big focus on day one of Oppo’s annual Inno Day technology showcase was imaging, with one of the most prominent reveals being the debut of the company’s first in-house image-centric NPU – the MariSilicon X.

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict Running Flyme OS 5 out of the box, the well-built Meizu Pro 6 Plus is a fantastic Android phone with some seriously good performance, a vibrant and high-resolution screen and a decent camera. Unfortunately, though cheaper than UK flagships, at £399 (before import duty) it’s still too pricey to properly compete with the Galaxy S7 and OnePlus 3T. Neither are we in love with Flyme OS....

Metro Exodus is the first in the series to take Artyom and the Spartan Rangers out of the dark tunnels of the Mosco Metro system and into irradiated Russia, providing a handful of open world environments across all four seasons to explore.
