With COP26 underway, the environmental crisis is once again being highlighted. The future looks bleak unless we make some significant changes. Consumer electronics are one of the many problematic areas. Most things nowadays are not designed to be repairable, everything is made of plastic, and many devices have difficult to dispose of lithium batteries. This…
As always with Pixel phones, one of the highlights is the camera performance. This is probably my favourite phone of the year for the camera performance, it is not just good, but consistent. If you are not fussed about the zoom lens, you get the same camera performance for the much cheaper Pixel 6, which…
Carrying around USB cables when you are out and about can be frustrating. Best case scenario, you fork out for a 0.3cm cable on Amazon and inevitably lose it. That’s also just one cable, what happens if you need a lightning cable? It may seem like a niche scenario, but I quite frequently take out…
Earlier this week, Qualcomm relatively quietly announced three new chipsets. The Snapdragon 778G+, Snapdragon 695 and Snapdragon 480+. It is mostly a forgettable announcement following the similar routine we have seen from both Qualcomm and MediaTek the past couple of years. Very minor refreshes of existing chipsets. Qualcomm has announced so many chipsets this year…
Launched earlier this month, the Xiaomi 11T series is positioned as an affordable refresh of their flagship Xiaomi MI 11 series. The new Pro model features the flagship SD888 and is the first phone to launch in the UK with an incredible 120W fast charge. The Xiaomi 11T I have reviewed today is the second…
Today, the Honor 50 finally sees its official UK/EU launch. It is quite an important phone, being the first product launch by Honor now that they are fully separate from Huawei. This now means that Honor can include Google Mobile Services on their phones with the extensive range of apps available on the Google Play…
The Google Pixel 6 started shipping this week, being the first phone to use the custom Google Tensor chipset. This is the biggest upgrade for the Pixel series in years, and many people are already claiming that the Pixel 6 Pro is the best Android phone of the year. The Google Tensor uses some similar…
The official Apple MagSafe Battery Pack launched with mixed reviews. The first problem was that it costs £99. Then MagSafe Battery Pack charges an iPhone 12 model at 5W when out and about. Finally, the MagSafe Battery Pack has a 7.62V, 11.13Wh battery inside with 1360mAh worth of juice. Inevitably, other brands that have been…
Following on from my best Pixel 6 Pro deals post, I have been looking into the best deals on the cheaper Pixel 6. The Pixel 6 is likely the better buy for most people, I think the £600 price point is quite reasonable, and you are not sacrificing that much by not getting the Pro…
The Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro were announced yesterday. This is the biggest Pixel launch in years, and I expect it will be the most popular Pixel phone to date. While the Pixel series have always been some of the best Android phones to launch, on paper, they looked lacklustre and overpriced. This year…
Yesterday, Google announced the latest flagship Pixel phones, the Pixel 6 Pro and Pixel 6. This is the biggest Pixel launch in years, the entire phone has seen a huge refresh ditching the old 12MP camera they used, improving the size of the battery and introducing the first custom Google Tensor chipset, which will compete…
