I have long been a fan of the Withings smart scales. Being able to track my weight over months and years significantly helped with my weight loss and then subsequent bulk/cut cycles. I started off with the Body+, which offers a good balance of data and affordability, which is best suited for most users in…
While Wi-Fi 6 may offer significant speed improvements on the current 5Ghz band, the performance is often held back due to congested Wi-Fi networks and pesky radar, creating the need for DFS (Dynamic frequency selection) channels.

Following on from my SIVGA Phoenix review, I have also been checking out the more affordable SIVGA Robin which also goes by the name of SVO21. These are a bit more of a mainstream-friendly pair of cans, being closed back with a bass-forward V shape and cost less than £150. Specification Form: Closed-back headphones Drivers:…
