At a Glance Expert’s Rating Pros Good sound quality :ightweight Case doubles as powerbank Cons Poor microphones No waterproofing Fiddly case Our Verdict For not much money at all, the Bilikay HBQ-Q67 are a great entry-point to the wireless earbud world. Audio quality is surprisingly good and the lightweight Construction of the buds makes them comfortable to wear for extended periods. It’s a shame about the microphone quality and lack of waterproofing, but at this price you can’t have everything....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict The Bissell CrossWave does what it says – it allows you to vacuum and wash most types of floors in one go. If you have pets you will probably like it as it allows you to get hairs and mud out of rugs rather efficiently. That said, it’s impractical to use under furniture or in corners, meaning you’ll probably still need to use a handheld vacuum or cordless to get to those spots....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Pros Excellent malware protection Masses of features Decent, unlimited VPN service Cons Fragmented experience with multiple apps Can’t set individual app time limits using parental controls Identity protection included only in most expensive package Our Verdict Bitdefender Premium Security offers impressive protection from malware, phishing and scams. Some of the additional features, such as the VPN and password manager are good, but others such as parental controls are far from best-in-class....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict Well made, decent-sounding and very good value. We are big fans of the Brainwavz S0. If you want an in-ear monitor for £30 or less, you can do a lot worse. Best Prices Today: Brainwavz S0 Brainwavz S0 review: what they are, why they matter The Brainwavz S0 is an in-ear monitor headphone that fits in toward the bottom of the scale in terms of cost, but delivers superior performance, build and comfort....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict There’s really very little to complain about with these amazing true wireless earbuds from Cambridge Audio. Not only are they cheaper than most big name rivals, they offer longer batter life, some neat features and overall excellent sound quality too. Unless noise cancelling is a must, they’re a no-brainer. Best Prices Today: Cambridge Audio Melomania 1 The true wireless earbud market is positively bustling with new entries since the launch of Apple’s AirPods and with more and more phones ditching the physical headphone jack....

In summary: Tech Advisor analyzes the return of BBC’s Race Across the World after the Celebrity edition concluded, examining when Series 6 will air. The show’s future route remains unconfirmed by BBC, though major unvisited regions include USA, Africa, and Oceania for potential destinations. Previous series covered 14,000km across Asia, with contestants facing transport and budget challenges while large parts of Europe remain unexplored. BBC’s Race Across the World is an epic adventure that sees pairs make their way through foreign lands with no smartphone and limited resources – and the final episode of the Celebrity edition has just concluded....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Pros Unbeatable recharging speed High-capacity (25,000mAh) Range of outputs 5-year lifespan Cons Expensive Bulky and heavy Attracts fingerprints No charger or cable supplied Our Verdict The fastest charging speeds and excellent functionality make these graphene-composite power banks the most capable we’ve ever tested – if you can afford them. Best Prices Today: Chargeasap Flash Pro / Flash Pro Plus Our biggest problem with high-capacity power banks is that they’re always empty when you want to use them, simply because they can often take too long to recharge – by the time you remember to do so, it’s usually too late and you’re walking out the door....

Laptops have proven incredibly popular and valuable in 2020, but finding a great device that doesn’t break the bank still isn’t that easy. Chinese company Chuwi has been trying to change that in recent months, with a series of impressive budget releases. Its next device looks to be continuing that trend, albeit in a much thinner and lighter form factor than we’ve become accustomed to. The 13.3in LarkBook is just 11....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Pros Quick in some respects Affordable Five-year warranty Cons Performance on smaller capacity models is poor Gets warm when pushed hard 4K scores aren’t good Our Verdict Faster than the P2 at most things, but it doesn’t compete with the Samsung 970 EVO Plus for pure speed. Best Prices Today: Crucial P5 When Crucial launched its P2 NVMe drive earlier in the year I, among others, was a little disappointed....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict The D-Link DIR-882 is an interesting combination of solid wireless technology and useful extra features including DNLA and FTP. The modest extra cost of this over an AC1900 design makes it an interesting proposition for those that use their Wi-Fi heavily or exclusively. Best Prices Today: D-Link DIR-882 EXO AC2600 D-Link has a history of delivering high-end networking features without the price premium other brands charge....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict £150 is a lot of money to spend if you’re unsure whether Dash will appeal to your children, but Wonder Workshop’s spread of apps make it more likely that at least one will keep them coming back for more – at least in the medium term. My wish for a more advanced coding app for Android/FireOS – and a larger house – aside, I can’t really fault Dash....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict The XPS 13 ticks all the boxes. It looks great, the build quality is excellent, it’s nice and portable and has a wide range of specs to choose from. While not a massive upgrade from last year’s model, it’s had some solid refinement including getting the webcam back into the top bezel and also introduces a more affordable Core i3 edition. Best Prices Today: Dell XPS 13 9380 (2019) The Dell XPS 13 has cemented itself as the laptop of choice for many professionals and consumers over the last few years and that is certainly no accident....

It’s the first week of January, which means CES is underway and vying for our attention when we’ve barely got over the Christmas food and new year hangover. One product that we always expect to see refreshed at this point is the Dell XPS 13 and 2020 is no different. The screen can be touch or non-touch and is capable of Dolby Vision and HDR, much like last year’s model. It keeps the top bezel position of the webcam, a flaw the 2019 version fixed after the XPS went years with it in the lower corner of the screen....

Fans of the Devil May Cry series have been aware of the existence of a new DMC game for quite some time. Why? The director of the second, third and fourth instalments of the game, Hideaki Itsuno, confirmed the news of a new project on Twitter in 2017. The highly anticipated upcoming game was expected to be announced during TGS or PGW 2017, but it failed to materialise. Instead, Devil May Cry 5 was revealed at Microsoft’s E3 2018 press conference with a great new trailer featuring Dante, Nero and friends....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict The Devolo dLan 1200+ is one of the fastest Powerline adapters we’ve tested to date. It might not reach the dizzying speeds that it claims, but that’s true of all Powerline adapters out there. Its integrated electrical pass-through power socket is a real bonus, and the model with Wi-Fi and two Gigabit Ethernet ports on the second unit, if a little pricy, pretty much has it all....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict The Devolo dLAN 650+ and 650 triple+ are fine examples of the latest “600Mbps” Powerline chips, and offer fast speeds that knock the spots off using a home’s standard wireless signals. The use of Gigabit Ethernet, plus the new Powerline chips, and the clever “Range+” technology make these adapters stand out from the now quite established 500Mbps adapters. They’re not massively faster than the older adapters but they are an improvement....

At a glance Expert’s Rating Pros Great Wi-Fi speeds Supports 160MHz channels Two Gigabit LAN ports Easy setup Cons May be overkill for some households Doesn’t have many advanced settings LAN cable not included Our Verdict The Devolo Repeater 5400 can expand the Wi-Fi coverage of a powerful Wi-Fi 6 router at very decent speeds. It also has lots of features and is easy to set up. It’s a great choice if you have such a router and need fast Wi-Fi where your router doesn’t currently reach....
