At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict The i9-7900X is the most powerful CPU we’ve ever tested, and the fastest out-of-the-box Consumer processor you can buy today. It also has loads of PCIe lanes which, when paired with an appropriate X299 motherboard, allows you to build a seriously powerful PC. However, it’s very expensive and doesn’t offer enough of a performance advantage over rivals such as AMD’s Ryzen 7 1800X which gives you around three-quarters of the 7900X’s power at half the price....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict With the sixth-generation Apple iPod nano, Apple has proved to us that less is not best. Key features that we loved on previous models like the camera, video recording and integrated speaker have disappeared.

Both the BBC and ITV have really been trying to push BritBox – the online home of classic UK shows and films designed to help traditional broadcast channels survive as the entertainment landscape shifts to a streaming-based model. I’ve spent some time with BritBox , checking out the best shows and movies on the library and comparing their account offerings to rivals, and I have some thoughts. Why pay for shows that are already free in the UK?...

The second season of Halo has finished, and fans are now wondering what the future holds for the televised story of Master Chief.

The creators seemed prepared for the show’s success, as they green-lit season 2 before season 1 even made its streaming debut....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict With a price that’s among the cheapest smartphones you’ll find, you might expect the Landvo L200G to be awful. But apart from the poor quality cameras and build, the Landvo isn’t too bad at all. The rooted version of Android is worrying, though, and the short warranty doesn’t inspire confidence. If you want a vanilla Android smartphone with 4G support and you’re happy to be limited to Vodafone, Three and EE, it’s really not too much money to risk....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict The Lenovo Smart Display is a strong start for Google’s smart display ecosystem, and probably a better option than the Google Home Hub for most users – if only for the integration of a camera for video calling. Ultimately, the irritations here are mostly on Google’s side, and mostly software – so we hope they might improve over time anyway. Lack of support for the vertical orientation and the frustratingly stripped back touchscreen controls are undeniably annoying, and highlight the occasional failings of the voice controls....

The LG G9 was expected to arrive at the cancelled MWC tradeshow in February 2020, with LG instead promising to hold a separate event in the near future. However, new reports suggest the phone line may now have been cancelled altogether , with LG looking to introduce a new flagship line. The LG G8 was already looking a little old in comparison to recent competition, thanks to its chunky screen notch, dual-lens camera and rear rather than in-display fingerprint sensor, so the G9 needed to pull out all the stops to turn things around....
