I have already looked at how the MediaTek Dimensity 1200 & 1100 improve on the previous generation Dimensity 1000+, and how they compare with the Snapdragon 888 and Exynos 2100. However, the new Dimensity chipsets may be more comparable to the just-announced Snapdragon 870. In terms of overall performance, it seems unlikely the MediaTek Dimensity…
Today, Mediatek took the wraps off its latest two flagship chipsets for 2021. I have already covered how they improved on the Dimensity 1000+, but how do they compare with the Qualcomm and Samsung chipsets you find on the likes of the Galaxy S21 and Xiaomi Mi 11. MediaTek Dimensity 1200 & 1100 vs Qualcomm…
Today, MediaTek has announced two brand new chipsets targeting high-end devices, the Dimensity 1200 and Dimensity 1100. While these chipsets offer improvement from the previous generation, the main thing I am hoping for is that they are more widely adopted in the global market, providing an affordable alternative to flagship phones based on Qualcomm and…
Since Amazon’s release of its signature smart speaker Alexa in 2014, having voice assistant products at home has become commonplace. Whether you own an Amazon Echo, Google Home or similar item, the convenience of these smart speakers is undeniable. For just $100 or less, you can get a personal assistant that plays any kind of…
Today, Qualcomm took the wraps of their latest chipset which sits somewhere in a no man’s of being last years tech and flagship spec. The Qualcomm Snapdragon 870 snapdragon follows a similar trend we have seen from both Qualcomm and MediaTek in the past couple of years. Take an old chipset, tweak it by…
The Arlo Essential Video Doorbell Wire-Free was announced at the start of this year and will be made available across the usual online channels from the 2nd of February. While the security camera market is saturated, there are not many good battery-powered video doorbells, so the new Arlo Essential is a welcome addition to the…
With all-new Huawei devices using Huawei Mobile Services instead of Google, they are reliant on the success of the AppGalley and developers putting their apps on it. They have implemented stopgap solutions such as Petal Search allowing you to easily sideload APKs, but it is far from ideal. Huawei have invested a lot of money…

Reolink is quickly padding out their smart detection camera product line-up.

This additional feature incurs a small premium of £10 compared to the two other 4K…
The Jabra Elite 75t were one of my favourite TWS earphones in 2020. The very bass dominant profile may not be for everyone, but it works well for fitness, and they became my most use earphones for both running and indoor Zwift sessions. Technically, the IP55 rating made them less than ideal for my sweaty…
Neos is a relatively new company to the smart home scene being established just four years ago. Targeting the UK market, they appear to have been quite successful garnering a significant number of positive reviews on the likes of Amazon and Trustpilot. They even have a well-reviewed Android app, which is quite rare for new…
