Samsung Galaxy Book4 Pro 14 review – Expensive everday laptop with OLED touch screen

87% Samsung Galaxy Book4 Pro 14 review – Expensive everday laptop with OLED touch screen

Meteor Lake pared down. The Galaxy Book4 Pro 14 is Samsung's slim and light notebook for everyday use. It features a recent Meteor Lake processor as well as a high-resolution 120-Hz OLED touch screen. Both performance and battery life are no more than average.

Baseus Eli Sport 1 review

Baseus Eli Sport 1 review: Headphones for attentive athletes

Listen up. Listening to music while still maintaining awareness of your surroundings. This is what Baseus wants to make possible with its Eli Sport 1. The headphones keep your ear canals free, supposedly ensuring greater safety during workouts. Nevertheless, good sound shouldn't be neglected as a result. We have listened in to what these open ears can do.

79% Teclast M50 review – The tablet with mobile internet, a telephone function and lots of storage

When less is good enough. The Teclast M50 offers no high-end performance or top-of-the-range features—it is a relatively affordable tablet that masters everything you'll need in everyday use. Plus, it even features quite a few extras, such as mobile data, a large amount of storage and stereo speakers.

91% Lenovo Legion 7 16 G9 laptop review - A gaming machine with a 3.2K display, HX CPU and an overclocked RTX 4070 laptop

Does it always have to be a pro? With the Legion 7 16 G9, Lenovo is offering a comparatively slim and eye-catching gaming laptop which is also interesting for other target groups such as multimedia users or content creators. Intel's Core i9-14900HX and Nvidia's GeForce RTX 4070 laptop ensure sufficient performance for the 3.2K IPS display and its P3 coverage.

81% Acer Aspire Go 15 review: Office notebook with long runtimes for 429 euros

Nuisance. Alder Lake, 8 GB RAM, 512 GB SSD, and an FHD panel result in a simple office notebook for a small budget. Very good battery runtimes and USB-C Power Delivery make a 15.6-inch laptop more attractive. The fan is not a pleasure, though.

87% LG Gram 17 (2024) laptop review - Small improvements and a new Core Ultra 7

Out of its teething troubles? LG's new Gram has stayed true to the series. From the outside, barely anything has changed about the slim 17-inch device. On the inside, a Meteor Lake processor now powers the laptop. However, LG has quietly and secretly eliminated a few of the points of criticism which we raised about our test device's predecessors.

Powerhouse. A Core i9-14900HX and a GeForce RTX 4070 equip the Aorus 16X (2024) for video editing, gaming and rendering. Adding to this is a bright 16-inch display (16:10, 2,560 x 1,600 pixels, G-Sync), 32 GB RAM, two SSDs with 1 TB of storage each, as well as a Thunderbolt 4 port.

Affordable but dated. For $300 with RAM and storage, the NucBox M5 cuts a lot of corners in terms of performance in order to meet that attractive price point. It's not bad all things considered, but significantly better options become available in the $400 to $500 range.

Design over performance. The XPS 16 9640 is Dell's new multimedia flagship, replacing the old XPS 15. Aside from its larger 16-inch display, it also features current Meteor-Lake processors and GeForce graphics cards, but its GPU performance in particular is unfortunately only average.

91% Oppo Find X7 Ultra review - Best camera in an Android smartphone?

Smile for the camera. With the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, Oppo has equipped the Find X7 Ultra with a top processor and also uses the best of the best in the rest of the hardware. But the clear highlight is the Hasselblad quad camera with its 1-inch Sony LYT-900 sensor, which gives the Oppo smartphone the potential to push top smartphones such as the Apple iPhone 15 Pro Max off the camera throne.

Mini LEDs, but not in the screen. Although the idea may not be particularly new, the Tecno Pova 6 Pro 5G's light effects on the back are pretty impressive. Its transparent design is a real eye-catcher and thanks to its speedy storage, abundance of RAM and AMOLED screen, its features are just as good. Is this phone the ultimate hidden gem?

OLED touchscreen and a hefty price tag. Dell has presented the XPS 14, a new multimedia laptop of which we have tested the high-end variant with an OLED panel and the GeForce RTX 4050 Laptop. At almost US$3,000, the device costs an arm and a leg and especially when it comes to performance, you shouldn't set your expectations too high.

We observed: The model is comfortable to ride, but it could run into some legal issues depending on where you are based. Update: Do not purchase PVY bicycles.
