Schenker Xmg A505 Review: Build Your Own Gaming Laptop

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict The XMG A505 is a versatile choice if you wish to define your gaming laptop experience. Finish quality and style are Conspicuously behind the leaders here, although display image is good and the Intel/Nvidia combination means the most challenging games play with ease. The second-fastest storage we’ve ever tested means one quick everyday laptop, even if storage performance counts for near nought when you’re actually playing Windows games....

See What The Fuss Is About: Try Ai Overview Search Results Outside The Us Now

Google has added AI Overview to its search results for web users in the US, which is hitting the headlines for all the wrong reasons. Rather than users noting it as a useful service that aids the experience, they are reflecting on its potential for inaccuracy, its damning affect on publishers as it pushes their original content further down the search results page, and simply for the fact it cannot be turned off ( actually they can turn it off with this extension )....

Skullcandy Indy Anc Earbuds Review

Skullcandy is best known for producing budget wired earphones, and the Indy ANC Earbuds are not quite in that category – but for a pair of true wireless earphones with ANC (active noise cancellation), they’re still pretty affordable at £89/$129. However, with increasing competition from brands like Xiaomi and Anker, how do they stack up? I have spent some time with these buds to see how they fare with music, podcasts, calls and more....

Slack Pushes Ios Ui Redesign With New Tabs

A similar update came last week to Slack’s Android beta . There are now four tabs at the bottom of the app: Home, DMs, Mentions, and You. Previously some of these much used elements were hard to reach, with DMs appearing under the list of channels in the left navigation bar and mentions sometimes only discoverable by search....

Slingshot Vs Snapchat Comparison

At a Glance Our Verdict Overall, we currently prefer Snapchat to Facebook’s new Slingshot ephemeral messaging app. Snapchat is less frustrating than Slingshot, and right now there are more people using Snapchat than Slingshot. However, we can imagine Slingshot taking off and becoming more popular as more features are added, particularly due to the group-messaging feature. We appreciate that Facebook has attempted to add its own spin on the disappearing messaging craze, but it’s not going to go down well with everyone, that’s for sure....

Sonos Playbase Review

Sony Xperia Z3+ Review

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict Like previous devices, the Sony Xperia Z3+ is a nice smartphone. Although we like the capless USB port and better front facing camera, it’s simply far too similar to the Xperia Z3 to justify an upgrade – perhaps owners of older generations will be more tempted. It doesn’t help that the firm is alienating customers by launching the same phone in Japan as the Xperia Z4....

From our experiences with the device at CES early this year it does look to be an interesting proposition, and we’re looking forward to giving it a thorough bench test. The Surface Pro is another compelling offering....

The Best Antivirus Software: Windows, Android And Iphone

One upon a time, antivirus apps did only that: protect you from viruses. They still do that but a lot more alongside it these days. Think of modern antivirus as all-round security software, keeping you safe while using any device, anywhere. Some also include features such as VPNs and password managers to add value. Traditionally, you might also think of antivirus as a program for your computer. All of the six services included here might be best known for their Windows 10 or 11 apps, but they’re also available on an iPhone or Android phone ....

GoPro is still the dominant action camera brand by quite a long way, and is the first place most people look when they think about picking up a camera to film their latest sporting exploits.

We’ve rounded up our favourite GoPro accessories here – and if you’re thinking of picking up a new camera itself, take a look at our guide to the best GoPro ....

The temperature has dropped, the air is freezing and we can all agree that winter is here. That means it’s time to get out the gloves. But if you’re regularly using your phone when you’re out, for directions or texting, there’s a problem. Walking in a bitter wind, a glove clamped between your teeth so you don’t lose it, while stabbing at your phone with one frozen finger is not the way to do the colder months....

The Iphone 12 Pro Max Could Be The True Apple Flagship

The iPhone 11 Pro and 11 Pro Max were, display and battery aside, virtually identical, but a recent rumour suggests that could all change with this year’s iPhone 12 Pro Max. That’s the claim from EverythingApplePro, working with leaker Max Weinbach, anyway. According to the pair, who explained the current situation with Apple’s upcoming flagship range in a recent YouTube video , there will be enough differences between the iPhone 12 Pro and Pro Max that only the larger 6....
