At a Glance Expert’s Rating Pros Great screen 80W charging Superb performance Cons India and China only 2 years of Android updates Poor second and third camera lenses Our Verdict If you can get hold of it, the iQoo Neo 6 is a solid mid-range phone with flagship performance, hidden gaming chops, and very fast 80W wired charging. Note the Indian version has a different processor to the Chinese one....

Unlike antivirus software, ID protection services don’t directly protect your devices, data or passwords. Instead, they alert you when your email addresses or services you use online have been hacked and your personal info has been leaked. So, in a nutshell, they can mitigate identity fraud , also known as ID fraud or identity theft, which can be a serious issue. But why you should use them? Hundreds of data brokers collect and sell your personal information, increasing your chances of spam, scams, and identity theft....

The PS5 and Xbox Series X/S are here and if you managed to get a pre-order in then you probably can’t want to get the next-gen console set up and start gaming. But is your TV compatible with next-gen consoles? There’s a lot to get your head around here as although your current TV will probably work, it’s likely that you won’t be getting the full next-gen gaming experience. A new TV might be in order if you want to play the PS5 or Xbox Series X (or S) at 4K resolution and 120fps....

Is Windows RT dead? We investigate the past, present and future of Microsoft’s cut-down mobile Windows 8 operating system. With a surge in mobile computing devices over the past few years including tablets , it’s no wonder Microsoft decided it had better do something to keep up and embrace this trend. So, with the launch of Windows 8 came a cut-down, essentially mobile version named Windows RT designed to run on devices with ARM processors rather than Microsoft’s long term partner Intel....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict One of the coolest-looking home projectors we’ve ever seen, the JmGO G1 is an excellent buy. The remote control takes a while to get your head around, and we’d have liked the ability to pair a Bluetooth mouse or keyboard instead, but it’s otherwise very difficult to find fault with the J1 at £449. Best Prices Today: JmGO G1 ‘Gorgeous’ and ‘projector’ don’t often sit well together in a sentence, but that’s exactly what you get with the JmGO G1 Smart Home Theater ....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict With one of the best mid-range processors on the market and some flagship specs including a full-screen 6.39in AMOLED display and in-display fingerprint sensor the Lenovo Z5 Pro has a huge amount to offer at around £300. Unfortunately photography and audio leave something to be desired, and the complicated setup procedure makes the Z5 Pro difficult to recommend for an English-language audience. Best Prices Today: Lenovo Z5 Pro Lenovo’s Z5 Pro is a really interesting proposition in the mid-range phone market , mixing flagship specs with a Snapdragon 710 processor to keep down the price to an affordable level....

At a glance Expert’s Rating Pros High impact HDR picture Updated webOS 24 Freeview Play (UK) Dolby Vision Cons Non-swivel pedestal stand Unremarkable audio Our Verdict Boasting a stunning 4K picture, with superb gaming functionality, the LG C4 is a premium OLED performer that’s difficult to resist… Best Prices Today: LG C4 OLED The C Series has long been the backbone of LG’s OLED range, despite the G being the flagship model, offering a sweet spot when it comes to high end performance and features....

At a Glance Our Verdict The LG G3 S is a very good-looking phone with specs and features that’ll suit most users, but at £299 it doesn’t weigh up too well with the similarly priced Nexus 5, which is actually also made by LG, which has a better processor, better display and similar cameras. If you love the design of the LG G3 but would like to spend a little less cash, the LG G3 S is definitely worth investigating, but we think you can get more for your money elsewhere....

Prior to the LG G5’s launch at MWC, the rumour mill went into overdrive and produced some scarcely believable rumblings about add-on accessories which would upgrade the flagship phone in various ways. Amazingly virtually every rumour turned out to be true, which makes for a very interesting phone indeed. But how does it compare to its predecessor, the widely acclaimed LG G4 ? Here’s what you need to know. For more, see our LG G5 review ....

LG’s V series phones have gone through six iterations from the bold reinvention of 2015’s V10 right up to 2020’s V60 , a phone that we thought was one of the most underrated of the year. The ‘V’ unofficially stands for ‘video’, and the V series has always sat alongside the more mainstream G series to offer Android enthusiasts a fully-featured camera app, great video editing options, flagship power, and on the V10 and V20 a ticker-tape style second display....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict The real strength of the Track Air+ headphones lies in their all-round versatility and value for money. Sound quality is very good, but these little earbuds also squeeze plenty of extra features into their elegant, minimalist design, including water-resistance, wireless charging case, and effective noise-cancellation technology – all at a very competitive price. Best Prices Today: Libratone Track Air+ Libratone is best known for its Zipp range of speakers – which, admittedly, are a tough act to follow – and its more recent headphone products haven’t attracted the same level of attention....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict We’re a little miffed that a Lightning cable isn’t provided in the box, and that when plugged in one doesn’t fit as snug as we like, but that aside this is an incredibly useful and affordable power bank for iPhone and iPad users. There’s enough power to charge your iPhone four or five times (depending on its model), which should come in useful in an emergency....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict The Meizu M3 Note is a great phone, with outstanding battery life and a nice metal unibody design, but it isn’t a patch on the Xiaomi Redmi Note 3, which is faster and comes with a better camera, more up-to-date software and, importantly, a cheaper price tag. That said, it’s difficult for us to recommend to UK users (particularly novice UK users) the Meizu M3 Note over other budget Chinese smartphones we’ve tested, given that Google Play is not preinstalled and so much of it has not been adapted from Chinese....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict There’s no doubt that the Mont Blanc is a stylish and extremely well-made smartwatch. However, it misses the mark in various ways making it very hard to recommend spending the asking price. The Summit’s specs are very similar to much cheaper rivals from tech brands and the Summit is lacking GPS and NFC. The saddest thing of all is not being able to use the crown....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Pros Affordable 90Hz display Strong battery life Cons Poor cameras Slight lag Our Verdict Motorola makes a predictable budget handset in the Moto G30. You get all the basics, great battery life and a 90Hz display, but underwhelming cameras may prompt eyes (and wallets) to wander elsewhere. Best Prices Today: Moto G30 Reviewing the Moto G30 feels very much like Groundhog Day. If you’ve read my review of the G9 Play , you’ll know what to expect here....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Pros 144Hz OLED screen Good battery life Moto software Cons Sometimes inConsistent cameras Slightly insubstantial build quality Mono-speaker Our Verdict The Moto Edge 20 may be the middle child in the manufacturer’s 2021 smartphone line up but its the one to pay attention to. With a great screen, good battery life, a versatile camera set up and well-crafted software, it offers a lot for the price with relatively few drawbacks....

At a Glance Our Verdict Having held the phone in our hands for just a few moments the Motorola One Zoom gave us a great feeling, thanks to an original and beautiful design, very good cameras and decent specifications.

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Pros Long battery life 90Hz refresh rate Mid-range innards Cons 720p display Mediocre cameras Older Android version at launch Our Verdict Nokia’s G21 is a solid enough budget phone with a decent amount of performance, but corners have been cut to hit such an impressive price point.

On Sunday 24 February at MWC 2019 Nokia announced five new phones, with its new flagship Nokia 9 PureView and four budget phones . (You can re-watch the event above, though you may need to turn off your ad blocker if you are unable to see it.) Five is the theme of the day for Nokia, with its new top-end smartphone the world’s first penta-lens camera. With five 12Mp cameras at the rear all working together to create the perfect shot, it should be capable of some phenomenal results....

In summary: Tech Advisor reports that Nothing Phone (4a) and (4a) Pro are expected to launch globally by early March, potentially around March 5th. The new models will feature redesigned aesthetics, faster UFS 3.1 storage, larger batteries, and an unspecified Snapdragon processor with higher pricing anticipated. These mid-range devices become crucial for Nothing since the company won’t release flagship phones in 2026, following their well-received Phone (3a). The Nothing Phone (4a) and Nothing Phone (4a) Pro should be launching in around a month’s time, according to a fresh tip....
