ZTE Nubia X: An unusual dual display phone with no notch or selfie camera

It has been interesting to see how the notch has become ubiquitous among many brands, especially when Apple received so much criticism when they introduced the notch in the first place.

Blitzwolf BW-FYE1 True Wireless Earbuds Review

I am generally indifferent towards this new true wireless earbud trend; I find the convenience of no wires is weighed down by poor performance and loose-fitting earbuds. Something you don’t want when there is no wire. However, I have come away pleasantly surprised by the very affordable Blitzwolf BW-FYE1 earbuds. At just £34.99 on Amazon…

Thermaltake View 71 Tempered Glass Full Tower Chassis Review

My recent review of the Thermaltake A500 chassis highlighted that it was a departure from Thermaltake’s preference of all glass all RGB design choices.
