Razer Blade 15 Review

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict The Razer Blade 15 is pretty expensive, especially if you want a 144Hz model, but not more than rival gaming laptops and you’re getting a serious combination of design and specs here. This gaming laptop has been refined, upgraded and improved to provide a 15.6in experience in a size barely bigger than before (in fact, it’s thinner).

Remote Working: Is It Doing More Harm Than Good?

While there’s no single factor that has driven this dramatic increase, a recent survey from social media management platform Buffer found that 40 percent of remote workers see flexible working as a key workplace benefit. Other cited perks include the ability to work from any location, and having more time to spend with the family. As child and adult social care costs continue to soar , flexible working has enabled many white-collar working parents to complete the school run or care for elderly relatives whilst working a full-time job, a concept that might have been unimaginable in the not-so-distant past....

Resident Evil 3 Remake Release Date, Trailers And Gameplay News

After the phenomenal success (both critically and commercially) of the Resident Evil 2 remake, it’s no real surprise that Resident Evil 3: Nemesis is getting the same treatment. Sadly ‘Nemesis’ is actually getting dropped from the title, but he’s still a massive (literally) presence in the game, pursuing you throughout and generally making the whole thing pretty stressful.

Samsung Galaxy A71 Review: Hands

At a Glance Our Verdict The A71’s appeal will depend heavily on price, but if it’s similar to the A70 then Samsung will be onto a winner. The core spec here is really solid, and the compromises – plastic back, HD display, no wireless charging or waterproofing – are all on points that are less important to most users. If you can ignore the appeal of the S-series branding on the S10 Lite, the A71 looks like the phone to beat in Samsung’s mid-tier offering....
