Reviews of all the latest gadgets and technology
The Xiaomi 14 and 14 Pro were announced back in China at the end of October 2023. Xiaomi is now launching the Xiaomi 14 series globally. Packing the latest Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, a vibrant AMOLED display with slim bezels, an upgraded camera system developed with Leica, super fast charging, and 5G connectivity, the…
The Honor Magic5 Pro was my favourite phone of last year. It may not have been the absolute best device all around, but I believe it had the best performance for the price. In particular, I much preferred it to the Pixel 7 Pro. While the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra may have been better, it…
For the past few years, I have noticed that food seems to go off much faster than it used to. I have found that many supermarkets seem to have much shorter dates on food, and I have found fruit and vegetables particularly bad for going off quickly. The problem is exacerbated by the recent cost…
At the end of 2023, I reviewed the TP-Link Kasa KE100 radiator valve and had very mixed feelings towards it. It is fantastic value for money, but at the time, it was not compatible with the TP-Link Tapo H100 hub, and I went on to criticise the mess of Kasa and Tapo interoperability. Recently, things…
The Creative Zen Air Pro are the latest true wireless earbuds from Creative, featuring active noise cancellation (ANC), long battery life, Bluetooth 5.3 and customisable touch controls via the Creative app. The main difference between the Zen Air Pro and the Zen Air Plus is the LC3+ codec, which claims to have higher robustness against…
As someone who hates vacuuming, I am a big fan of robot vacuums with LiDAR or VSLAM navigation and auto-empty stations. I have been using the AirRobo T10+ for the past two years, and it has done a decent enough job. At the time of my initial review, it was one of the most affordable…
EnGenius has been expanding its product range recently, allowing buyers to control as much of their network as possible within the EnGenius Cloud ecosystem. Last year, they introduced cloud-managed SD-WAN gateways, and more recently, they have launched a switch extender and two power delivery units. The ECP106 has 6-metered outlets with ethernet connectivity, allowing the…
Back in January, I reviewed the Poco X6, which is an excellent choice for anyone with a maximum budget of £300. In that review, I highlighted that the Redmi Note 13 Pro is almost identical but has lower RAM but has a much better camera specification. I have been using the Redmi Note 13 Pro…
I have previously reviewed the superb Ugreen Revodok Pro 209, which I have continued to use with my Geekom Mini IT13 Mini PC for the past few months. More recently, I reviewed the Revodok Pro Series 313 13-in-1 & 210 10-in-1 USB-C docks, which are both excellent and what I use when I travel. Ugreen…
The EnGenius EXT1105P is a little different from EnGenius. It is a POE switch that can only be powered from POE itself. This is, therefore, designed to extend network connectivity when there is no easy access to mains power. The gigabit input port is compatible with PoE++, which gives an input power of 51W to…
The Samsung Galaxy S24 series was announced in the middle of January, and like most established flagship phones, it is mostly an iterative upgrade of the previous generations. The two main improvements this year are the new 50MP 5x optical zoom lens and the range of AI features Samsung has introduced with One UI, which…
Back in 2022, I reviewed the original Marshall Motif ANC, which I thought was an attractive and excellent pair of earbuds. Marshall has now released a follow up with improved battery preservation, multi point connectivity and an upgrade to Bluetooth 5.3. Marshall Motif II A.N.C vs Marshall Motif A.N.C Specification Specification Marshall Motif II A.N.C…
