Spider-Man: Brand New Day is scheduled to drop next year, and filming is taking place in Glasgow this month with Marvel superstar Tom Holland. Alongside this, The Hollywood Reporter dropped several bits of major casting news, while other images seemed to hint at another villain joining the roster. Many might have been hoping for Vincent D’Onofrio’s Wilson Fisk from the Daredevil TV series. Spider-Man vs Kingpin is a story MCU fans have been awaiting for years....

The classic stealth action game Splinter Cell may have been missing from consoles for the past generation, but Sam Fisher is due a surprise return to our screens with Netflix.

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Pros Retro design Various colour options Powerful, adjustable steam wand Cons Manual dispense Additional warming stage Plasticky build Our Verdict Swan’s retro espresso machine brings vintage style in an array colours – for a third of the cost of a Smeg. But espresso machines are expensive and the compromise for this budget-friendly price is some ease of use and build sturdiness.

Modern phones are incredibly capable devices, but they usually don’t come cheap. It’s not uncommon for top-of-the-line handsets to cost well over £1,000/$1,000. But what if you could get that premium hardware at a fraction of the cost? That’s exactly what the best mid-range phones achieve, offering a great all-round experience at a much more affordable price. To be eligible for selection, phones had to be priced between £250/$250 and £700/$700 when bought outright at launch....

One of Germany’s oldest technology shows returned this year, back to its full-on hustle and bustle and we had no less than four of the Tech Advisor team searching high and low for the best products around IFA 2022. While it was great to be back at big events like this seeing devices in the flesh, not all of the big brands were exhibiting in the same way as before – Sony being the most obvious, despite launching the Xperia 5 IV just two days ago....

2020 was a strange year for most people, but it still saw the release of some excellent products such as the new M1-powered Apple Macs , 5G smartphones such as the Samsung Galaxy S20 , and the continued growth of inexpensive wearables such as the Amazfit Band 5 . But what should we be expecting in terms of innovation in 2021? The following predictions are from members of both Tech Advisor and Macworld editorial teams, who cast their collective eyes on the tech that will be in the spotlight over the next 12 months....

Just a few years ago, 3D printing was a hobby for geeks and nerds. It was difficult, frustrating and slow. Fast forward to 2024, and that has all changed completely. Now, you can buy – for a very reasonable sum – a printer that works out of the box, doesn’t require hours of tweaking and adjusting and prints large models in hours – not days. Small models can take mere minutes....

Modern Windows laptops , tablets and PCs fitted with SSDs can have limited storage, so it’s more important than ever to keep a clean house and remove unwanted or unused programs. Not only will this free up precious storage space, but it can improve performance, as those programs often start up with Windows. The uninstaller provided with Windows is functional, but it can also be very slow and is somewhat lacking in features....

The best mid-range phones are closer to flagships than ever before, and there are always plenty of great deals to be found on affordable handsets. That could take already affordable mid-range handsets and make them downright irresistible. You might have to give up on luxuries like waterproofing or wireless charging (though some of these phones have those!) but you can get top processors, amazing battery life, fast charging, and slick multi-lens cameras at some surprisingly affordable prices....

The PlayStation 4 has almost undeniably been the console to own this generation, with a raft of exclusives – and multi-platform smashes – that have made it the envy of Xbox owners worldwide. The likes of God of War and Spider-Man aren’t playable anywhere else, making the PS4 a must-own if you want to give them a go. And of course Sony’s big black box has the full set of Call of Duty, FIFA, Assassin’s Creed, and more....

A few things changed with 2018’s Galaxy Note 9: the fingerprint scanner moved below the camera on the back of the phone, the notched dropped, and the battery dialed up to a powerful 4000mAh. See our full review . We’ve rounded up the best cases for the Note 9 out now – from the protective, to rugged, to the stylish and beyond. We’re separately rounding up the best Note 10 phone cases here ....

Foldable phones are the in-thing right now. It all kicked off with the Samsung Galaxy Fold back in 2019, which suffered from some classic first-generation product issues. In fact, it was recalled shortly after launch because the foldable inner display of early samples began to fall apart in reviewers’ hands . Thankfully, three years on, most manufacturers seem to have gotten over the hurdle of foldable smartphone durability. Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 4, for example, survived an impressive amount of damage in JerryRigEverything’s durability test including forcefully bending the phone backwards and putting dust and debris directly onto the display and inside the intricate hinge system....

Samsung’s new foldables are here, but you could be forgiven for thinking not much has changed. That’s especially true of the Galaxy Z Fold 6 , which looks like a carbon copy of last year’s Z Fold 5 . And while it’s true that the hardware is very similar, with a new chipset and slightly larger cover display the only upgrades of note, Samsung has made some big strides forward on the software side....

The OnePlus 15 is here, and the more I learn about this phone, the more impressed I am. I’ve personally loved both the OnePlus 12 and OnePlus 13 , but the 15 has managed to impress me more than any other phone in this series. I have not tested the phone as thoroughly as my fellow contributor Alex Walker-Todd for his 4.5-star full review , but the little time I have spent tells me how far ahead it is of much of the competition....

First there was the NES Mini. Then the SNES. Then Sony joined in with the PlayStation, and last year Sega resurrected its hardware division with Mega Drive (or Genesis, if you prefer). And now it’s Konami’s turn, with the PC Engine Core Grafx Mini. “Wait!” I hear you cry. “Konami never released a games console, did they?” Well, no. But Hudson Soft did, and the venerable Japanese publisher (best known for Bomberman and an adorable bee logo) was slowly acquired by Konami from 2001 on, eventually merging entirely in 2012....

Google’s next generation of flagship phones are here, and there’s a lot to talk about. Not only has the company launched successors to the Pixel 8 and 8 Pro (now the Pixel 9 Pro XL), there’s also a brand-new, compact Pro model. Google’s foldable also now gets Pixel 9 branding, but we’re covering the Pixel 9 Pro Fold separately. Here’s everything you need to know about the Pixel 9 series....
