Best Battery Cases For The Iphone X And Xs

While Apple has made some advances in iPhone battery life, most heavy smartphone users of their smartphone will run into that Low Battery warning at some stage of the day. The iPhone X and XS generations are still not able to last a full day and as they are now a few years old, the batteries will be getting weaker with every charge. According to Apple, the 2,716mAh cell on the iPhone X will get you 21 hours of talk time, 12 hours browsing the Internet, 13 hours watching video, or 60 hours listening to audio – although not all at the same time, of course!...

Best Playstation 5 Deals

The PS5 is now over three years old, and it’s no longer difficult to get hold of – though depending on where you live it might not cost the same as at launch.

Best Popsockets Phone Grips

Best Popsockets Popsockets produce quirky and fashionable phone grips that also double as a stand. While originally the company sold the grip and design as a single unit, the designs are now replaceable as a separate attachment called a ‘PopTop’, which means you can switch up the look whenever you feel like it. Keep in mind, PopSocket still sells its original single unit PopGrip. You won’t be able to swap out the design on these, which is why we recommend getting the ‘Swappable’ option (both cost the same)....

Can My Pc Run Windows 11?

Windows 11 has been available since 2021, but you might not have made the move from Windows 10 yet. That’s perfectly understandable: Windows 10 will be supported by Microsoft until October 2025, and there’s no standout feature that everyone needs to upgrade to. But even if you’ve decided now is the time to update, your computer might not actually support it. Microsoft introduced strict hardware requirements for Windows 11 at launch, then stopped supporting more CPUs just a couple of years later....

Don’T Take A Google Pixel Smartphone To This Holiday Destination

Google Pixel smartphones are popular. They’re not only technically impressive, but they’re also the first to benefit from new Android versions (although this isn’t always an advantage, as our Mobile Editor discovered ). There’s one country, however, in which Pixel devices are best avoided, as carrying one can cause you to be targeted by the police. In Spain, specifically in the popular holiday region of Catalonia, police officers are on the lookout for people who use a Pixel smartphone, as these devices are favoured by criminals, drug dealers and gangs....
