The latest technology news from around the world
Yesterday, Arm unveiled the next generation of its chipsets, which will likely roll out to phones in 2022. Most of the announcement is, as you would expect, the yearly cycle where the product numbers go up, and they offer more of this and less of that. All the numbers and percentages look impressive, but it…
The Ring Video Doorbell 4 was announced last month and is now available to buy. On paper, it only offers incremental changes from last year, so existing users won’t feel the need to upgrade. The headline change is the rollout of colour pre-roll from the black and white on the Ring Video Doorbell 3 Plus….
Today, Suunto has unveiled their latest flagship watch, the Suunto 9 Peak. As the name suggests, this isn’t a new-new flagship watch but an iteration of their excellent Suunto 9 Baro. One of the smallest & lightest flagship multi-sports watches on the market The stand out feature is its design, being considerably smaller than the…
The Lypertek PurePlay Z3, formerly Tevi, were a big hit last year, offering excellent audio quality, an incredible battery and an IPX4 waterproof rating all for a reasonable price of £99. The earphones have now been updated, Lypertek have kept all the good bits while offering decent upgrades with connectivity and app integration. Unlike other…
Back in March, I reported about the leaked SM7350, which was expected to be the Snapdragon 775G. That was partially inaccurate, with it turning out to be the impressive Snapdragon 780G. However, Qualcomm has now just launched the Snapdragon 778G offering minor differences between the Snapdragon 780G. Qualcomm Snapdragon 778G vs Snapdragon 780G differences The…
The Huawei FreeBuds 3 were announced in Germany at IFA 2019 during the keynote which included the Kirin 990. Sadly, the Huawei FreeBuds 4 have had their announcement in the Chinese market with no word on global availability yet. Due to all the issues Huawei have faced in the past 18-months, this is a trend…
This is a bit of a copy and paste job from TerraMaster, sorry. But it is moderately more informative than the generic press release hence I thought it was worth posting. TerraMaster, a professional brand that specializes in providing innovative storage products for home, businesses and enterprises, discusses the difference between software RAID and hardware…
Today, Xiaomi / Poco took the wraps off the new Poco M3 Pro 5G, which will be one of, if not the cheapest 5G phone to launch in the UK. In recent years, Xiaomi and Realme have been trading blows with the phone launches, all of which offer the best spec possible for the price….
Following the Google I/A, several companies have announced that their phones can experience Android 12 Beta 1 immediately. This includes the Realme GT, which launched in China back in March. Most people will never install a beta OS on their phone, so the news is largely irrelevant to the general consumer. However, it shows a…
Wear OS has been a bit of a disappointment, it has not received the love it deserves from Google, and Qualcomm have put no effort into advancing the SoCs at the same rate as phones. While I don’t hate Wear OS watches, my experience with them has always been lacklustre. The abysmal battery life is,…
Anyone wanting to get into mining Helium (HNT) has no doubt been incredibly frustrated by the lack of availability of the Helium Hotspots from all the suppliers, including Nebra, Rak, Bobcat and SyncroB.It. Much like the current GPU shortage, manufacturers have been suffering from a shortage of chips, primarily due to the ongoing Covid pandemic….
While Mediatek is quick to release new chipsets, manufacturers have been glacially slow at launching the high-end option in the western market. While Mediatek has launched the Dimensity 1000, 1000u, 1100 and 1200, the highest spec we have seen is the mid-range Dimensity 800 on the OPPO Reno 4 Z. It is a good chipset…
