Following my post on DRAM prices expecting to drop 5% before the year out, and that they have dropped over 25% this year, I thought it was worth seeing what are the best deals currently. I am eager to update my PC and relegate my R5 1600 to being the server, I am also keen…
Fitbit has dominated the fitness tracking market for years, but fitness trackers themselves are being displaced by smartwatches, in particular, the Apple Watch, but also Android and Garmin with the sports focussed watches. Smaller companies struggle to compete, Misfit are gone, as is the Basis Peak, and Withings has changed hands twice in the past…
I am always on the lookout for some positive news on DDR4 pricing, in the past few years we have seen the prices escalate by over three-fold in many cases. Since December the price races have slowed down and even dropped in many cases, but not where near to the levels of 2016. There have been…
As a keen cyclist, I am aware of the dangers a cyclist faces on a daily basis. I have been knocked off by cars because the driver has not looked before turning, and it is not uncommon for near misses. Thankfully I don’t often cycle in the dark, but in this situation, the dangers are…
Razer was the first company in recent years to build a phone dedicated to gaming (I had a Sony Xperia Play just 7 years ago), but it appears they have sparked a trend. Possibly due to the saturated market of samey looking and specced phones, building gaming phone phones allows them to differentiate themselves from…
It was clear from IFA 2018 that Acer is continuing to push forward in establishing themselves as one of the leading PC gaming brands. This included some over the top products such as the Predator Thronos gaming chair which weighs over 200KG and can accommodate three curved 27-inch monitors side-by-side. While the Thronos was a…
The Razer Phone 2 has just been launched at an event in San Fransisco, one of the many phones being released this month, and not even the only gaming phone, with the ASUS ROG phone being available shortly. Last year they were the only company on the market catering specifically for gamers, but now with…
Over the past few weeks, we have seen some excellent affordable mid-range phones released with the three stand out options, in my opinion, is the Nokia 7.1, Huawei Mate 20 Lite and the Honor Play. While I have not used all three phones, whichever you choose will likely be a great option, I think they…
While it probably won’t see the mainstream success of phones like the Galaxy S9, Huawei Mate 20 Pro, and OnePlus 6, the ASUS ROG Gaming phone is one of the more exciting phones of the year, purely for the fact that it is a little different. The ROG Phone is designed for high-end gaming, with dedicated…
Google has officially launched their latest Pixel 3 smartphones following weeks of leaks and even hands-on reviews. Both phones have identical internal but their screen and overall size differ, the increased size of the Pixel 3 XL allows them to squeeze in a 3430mAh battery whereas the smaller model has just 2915mAh. The screen of the XL is 6.3-inch…
We are just hours away from the official launch of the Google Pixel 3 and 3 XL. Most phones suffer from leaks in the days and weeks prior but the Pixel 3 has to be the most leaked device in recent times, just a few days ago a local shop in Hong Kong managed to…
I posted a few days ago about how Zodak had developed a double height double capacity memory DDR4 module. Now G.Skill has officially announced their Double Capacity DDR4 Trident Z RGB DC RAM which will be available on a limited number of ASUS motherboards. Consumer boards have been limited to using 16GB per DIMM since the launch…
