Dying Light: Bad Blood Release Date, Gameplay And Trailer

Battle Royale games are all the rage in 2018, and while most broadly offer the same experience, the team behind Dying Light are looking to offer something a little bit different – and no, we’re not talking about Dying Light 2 . Utilising the freerunning mechanics and gruesome zombie-killing gameplay that made the game so popular back in 2015, Dying Light: Bad Blood is unlike any Battle Royale game we’ve seen so far....

Engenius Whole Home Mesh Wi-Fi El

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict The EMR3000 performs surprisingly well, given its modest dual-band specification, and this three-piece kit will certainly be a good option for larger homes that need really wide Wi-Fi coverage. It’s reasonably priced too – although there would probably be a larger audience for a less expensive two-piece kit for those of us that live in more modest domiciles. You’ll need some patience to get to grips with the EnMesh app, though, and it wouldn’t hurt EnGenius to polish the app up a little for non-technical users who have never used a mesh networking system before....

Ezviz 4G Hub And Battery Cam Kit Review

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict For a starter kit, the EZVIZ is surprisingly expensive. The hub supports up to six cameras, but the only real reason for its existence is to offer 4G backup and power if your broadband goes down or there’s a power cut. While there’s also a siren in the hub, you can’t extend its use with other home alarm sensors. Cloud storage is expensive as well – all of which makes the kit hard to recommend....

Federal It Contractors Can Thrive Amid Tight Budgets

Amid ongoing budgetary pressure, federal agencies are tightening their belts as they aim to do more with less. But while that climate poses obvious challenges for government contractors in all industries, those in the IT sector can look forward to some significant opportunities, according to a new study from the Deltek , a software and services company catering to government contractors and professional services firms. “While the overall market is declining, we see some pockets of opportunity that companies can tap into to soften the impact on their business,” Deniece Peterson, director of Deltek’s GovWin IQ Federal Industry Analysis program, said in a statement....

Get £41 Off Apple’S Airpods Pro Right Now

Gigaset Me, Me Pro And Me Pure Review

At a Glance Our Verdict We’re seriously impressed with all three Gigaset Me smartphones after a hands-on play at IFA 2015. They offer premium design and build with each providing decent specs for the price – a price which is a lot less than most flagship phones but there is a lot more competition in this area such as the Honor devices and OnePlus 2 so it’s not totally straight forward....

Glamoriser Blue Smart Straightener Review

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict As a Bluetooth-connected straightener – in fact, the world’s first – the Glamoriser’s heat settings can be carefully controlled via the designated Glamoriser app (for iOS and Android). Though the app isn’t that impressive, the Glamoriser Blue’s standalone performance is. The device heats up quickly and glides across hair without snagging or pulling, leaving hair feeling sleek and healthy. You can style your hair within ten to fifteen minutes without the need to pass through the same section too many times....

Google Nexus 5X Vs Nexus 6P

At a Glance Our Verdict With the Nexus 6P winning every category here, you might think it is clearly the better phone. However, there’s a lot to be said for the smaller, lighter design and cheaper price of the Nexus 5X. These phones appeal to two different markets. If you want a good all-rounder that’s not too expensive and not too big then go for the Nexus 5X. If you demand ultimate performance and the latest technology then the Nexus 6P is your only choice....

Google Nexus 6P Vs Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+

At a Glance Our Verdict Our comparisons are written to help you decide which to buy rather than declare one an outright winner. In this comparison, it’s clear that the Nexus 6P is better value with 128GB on offer for less than the 32GB Edge+ and with no Micro-SD card slot this is a big deal. It also has an 8Mp front camera, USB Type-C and the latest Android. However, Samsung’s phone is arguably more stylish, is more manageable, has a better rear camera and has wireless charging....

Honor 10 Lite Review

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict The Honor 10 Lite is one of the best cheap smartphones you can buy. It has good performance, decent battery life, a large display and dual cameras. You can get cheaper phones that do basically the same things but if you can stretch to £200 the 10 Lite’s performance is worth it. Best Prices Today: Honor 10 Lite Smartphones can be expensive. Thankfully they can also be cheap and, as it happens, pretty good....
