My review of the Honor Band 5 is due to go live on Tuesday, and currently, I think it is the best affordable fitness tracker on the market (with UK availability). It’s one competing product is the Xiaomi Mi Smart Band 4, and in the UK there is not a great deal of differences between…
With October having so many phone releases, all of which will be using Qualcomm chipsets, I thought it would be a good idea to see how each one compares. Google launched the Pixel 4 on October 15th which will use the Snapdragon 855, on the same day we have Realme X2 Pro which will feature…
Sony announced the new Xperia 5 back at IFA this year, while the name convention sounds confusing this is essentially their compact phone of the year offering the same spec as the Xperia 1 but in a more hand-friendly format. While it is technically a 6.1-inch phone, the 21:9 CinemaWide display means it is narrower…
The Google Pixel 4 is due to be launched on the 15th of October, the following day Realme will launch their first true flagship phone the Realme X2 Pro. Over the years Google and their Pixel phones have bucked the trend of big specs, instead of optimising their software to get the best out of…
The one big feature the Fenix 6 launched with is PacePro which allows users to set a pacing strategy that takes into account elevation. PacePro coaches you in real-time so you can slow and speed up your run as necessary. I plan to use this for the Chester Marathon on Sunday and I hope it will…

10Gb Ethernet has been around for many years now, and it is only the past couple of years prices have started to drop but it is still restrictively expensive for your average user. With the launch of Wi-Fi 6, we now have the promise of multi-gigabit wireless, but it is our Ethernet that is now…
Realme have finally released some official details of the new Realme X2 Pro, rather than the usual controlled leaks you see, Realme have an actual page where they will trickle us information over the next few days. While Realme has not confirmed the phone is launching on the 15th in Madrid, they are holding an…
With many phones ditching the 3.5mm jack you may think that wired headphones are a dying breed, but if you are an audiophile, it is unlikely you are going to give up your wires any time soon. For me, one of the advantages of a wired earphone is that you get much more bang for…
Huawei may be the first company to launch a phone featuring an integrated 5G chipset thanks to the Kirin 99 5G, but it was MediaTek that announced the first 5G chipset all the way back in May. Admittedly, this was likely a marketing tactic, to be classed as the first company to announce such a…
