If you are involved in the technology business, the trend toward the delivery of all aspects of IT “as a service” can’t have escaped your notice. This was triggered by the arrival of the cloud a few years ago and subsequent advances in communications and applications management made it viable to provide software as a…
I reviewed the XGS1210-12 in August last year, at the time the unmanaged (XGS1010)option was the most affordable way of adding multi-gig Ethernet to your home with its two 2.5GbE ports. The web-managed (not Nebula cloud-managed) Zyxel XGS1250-12 ups the specification considerably. Keeping the same number of ports overall, and the same either gigabit ports,…
Sometimes you get things wrong. This was the case with my review of the Helium Network. When I first reviewed it, I was a little sceptical; a new crypto mining low powered WiFI network using lots of buzz words seemed a little sketchy when I first heard about it. I was wrong; we live and…
As predicted, the OVH fire that occurred on Tuesday is having some terrible consequences for many businesses. The fire completely destroyed an entire SBG1 datacentre then a further four rooms in the SBG1 data centre. The fire then took out connectivity across SBG1 through to SBG4. Unfortunately, any business or individual that has had a…
I reviewed the Airthings Wave Plus a couple of years ago; it was one of my first experiences of indoor air quality monitoring and I was impressed with what it offered. Last year I became more interested in Indoor Air Quality as part of my long quest to be as healthy as fit as possible….
I was very impressed with the performance of the original Edifier TWS NB; with a sub-£100 RRP, they were one of the best options on the market at their price point. However, they were ugly and bulky. Edifier are now back with the TWS NB2, addressing the above issues with a completely new design that…
The OPPO Find X3 Pro 5G was always going to be one of the best (and most expensive) phones of the year. It has now been officially announced with a specification as impressive as you might expect. While it was no surprise that this would use the Qualcomm Snapdragon 888, this makes it the first…
While we wait for the launch of the new Huawei P50 Pro, Huawei has quietly launched the affordable active noise cancelling FreeBuds 4i. These follow up the FreeBuds 3i, which I reviewed last year, which are effectively identical to the Honor Magic Earbuds. I liked the FreeBuds 3i, for the price, you could hardly complain,…
Not really consumer tech news, but such a large and serious incident I which will have long-reaching effects it is worth posting about. OVH, the largest VPS and dedicated hosting provider in Europe has had a disastrous fire occur within its SGB1 data centre which has then affected SGB1-4. Most importantly, no one has been…
Announced around 15 months ago, the Qualcomm Snapdragon 765G is starting to show its age. The Arm Cortex A76 cores are now two generations behind the Cortex A78 and X1 found on the latest flagship Qualcomm Snapdragon 888. Then the lower-priced Snapdragon 750G offers superior performance in many benchmarks thanks to its use of the…

[Formerly Realme Race Pro]](https://mightygadget.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/03/realme_gt_series-768x432.jpg "realme gt series")
Normally in the world of phones launches, a brand will hype up a product with small reveals, while various sites, YouTubers and social media users leak specs they somehow acquire. By the time of launch, we often know everything about a phone. At the end of January, Realme sent out a press release confirming Q1…
