The Realme 7-series launched last month but has now finally come to the UK and EU. It is a bit of a strange launch, the previous 6 series launched back in March, and not a great deal has changed since then. However, the Realme 6 and Pro were both amazing phones for the price, and…
I reviewed the SecureDrive SecureUSB BT back in July and was impressed with the usability and features of the drive. Now, iStorage has launched their own Bluetooth hardware-encrypted USB flash drive, offering almost the same features but at a lower price. With this review, I also checked out some of the remote management features which…
I have never heard of Coumi before, but they are one of the many affordable audio brands you will find on Amazon. They have recently launched one of the most affordable ANC earphones ever with the ANC-860 joining the dozens of other companies that have started launched ANC true wireless earphones this year. Specification Active…
In my post benchmarking the Zotac Gaming GeForce RTX 3080 Trinity on a X470 motherboard with Ryzen 7 2700X the results I saw were considerably lower than what most reviewers had posted. This was to be expected, with me using lower-spec hardware elsewhere. With the RTX 3080 being so powerful and PCIe 4.0 based, many…
Being an unmanaged switch, this is a short review, but the QNAP is finally available, costing just £108 for five 2.5gbps copper Ethernet ports it is the most affordable solution for a multi-gig network on the market.

WiFi 6 is starting to become more affordable, with routers such as the Honor Router 3 for as low as £65, and these affordable prices are now being reflected with mesh WiFi 6 systems. The Netgear Nighthawk MK63 WiFi 6 system is one of the cheapest of them all at just £295 currently on Amazon…
Like Bruce Woolley & the Camera Club almost predicted, ‘video killed the radio star’. We say almost, because broadcast video took the plunge and moved online to save itself first – but to radio’s credit, it followed suit shortly after. And as all broadcasters and wannabes alike know – getting people to tune in online…
It has been over 5-years since I reviewed a DECT phone, even then it was a technology that felt very out of date. With the prevalence of cheap smartphones and affordable mobile contracts, there is little need for the home user to have a landline nowadays. However, they are still important for most businesses, and…
Huami owned Amazfit has been a popular option in recent years, now Huami has launched two new watches under the sub-brand Zepp E. The Zepp E brand appears to a more style-focused brand that will exist side by side with Amazfit. The two watches are essentially the same, but one is circular and the other…
Review offers for TWS earbuds come in almost daily, everybody has jumped on the bandwagon. This trend is now leaning toward ANC true wireless earbuds. This technology used to be reserved for premium-priced products such as the Sony WF-1000XM3. However, Qualcomm has rolled down this technology to more affordable chipsets which have allowed many brands…
I have reviewed a few Power Delivery GaN chargers recently, they have always been exactly, offering a smaller form factor while keeping the power rating high. The RAVPower PD Pioneer 65W 4-Port explains what it is in the title, however a more detailed spec: Specification 65W maximum output split across 4 ports. 2 USB-C PD…
Reolink has finally joined the growing list of companies that offer an advanced smart motion detection technology enabling the camera to distinguish between people and cars.
