Multi-gigabit ethernet is finally starting to become more mainstream, at the same time with Wi-Fi 6 it is also possible to achieve multi-gig on a wireless network. While 10GbE is becoming more popular, it is still painfully expensive. 10GbE RJ45 is particularly costly. Netgear has some of the cheapest options on the market, but the…
Another day, another Garmin leak. This time from serial leaker Roland Quandt who is generally regarded as very reliable. This leak backs previous information the Vivoactive 4 will arrive at IFA. He leaks also do not mention the Fenix 6, which backs my suspicion that the flagship device will not be launching at the end…
If you like RGB, it is safe to say Thermaltake has a product to suit your needs. Their range of fans is an excellent example of this, looking on Amazon there are six different 120mm three packs, and five 140mm three packs, plus five packs and single fans. They all do more or less the…

Samsung has just announced the world’s first mobile camera sensor that goes beyond 100MP. The Samsung ISOCELL Bright HMX is a 108MP sensor for smartphones that comes as…
With the launch of HarmonyOS on the Honor Vision & Vision Pro TVs, I thought it was worth looking into the chipsets that power these devices.
