Tech giant from the second row. The Xiaomi Poco F7 Pro isn't the best in every respect, but it delivers a strong overall package consisting of an extra-bright AMOLED screen, a particularly large battery and a powerful Snapdragon 8 Gen 3. The only things stopping it from belonging to the top smartphone class are a zoom camera and features such as wireless charging.

Duel of skyscrapers and vineyards. Along the Rhine and Main rivers, through vibrant cities and picturesque landscapes, we conducted the ultimate test for travel photographers. In Frankfurt, in the Upper Middle Rhine Valley (UNESCO World Heritage Site), in Würzburg, and at the Mainschleife, the top smartphones - Sony Xperia 1 VI and OnePlus 13 - competed against each other. Which delivers the best pictures during your travels?

Unbeatable total package for just under $1,000. The base model of the new MacBook Air 13 benefits from an extremely fast M4 processor and, in addition to a thin case, still offers a brilliant IPS display, silent operation and long battery life—at least with the brightness reduced.

The 14-inch device for creatives. Lenovo has updated its Yoga Pro 7, giving the 10th generation an AMD processor as well as a new 14.5-inch OLED display that even covers the AdobeRGB color space completely and is calibrated straight out of the box.
AMD Ryzen AI 7 350 | AMD Radeon 860M | 14.50" | 1.6 kg

OLED for the for the rest of us. You can hardly get a smartphone with a colorful OLED display cheaper than the Samsung Galaxy A16 4G. The manufacturer promises long updates, but little has changed compared to its predecessor. Is the Galaxy A16 4G still worth a look?

There is a clear winner in terms of performance. If you want the slimmest gaming notebook with the GeForce RTX 5090 Laptop, you currently have the choice between the Asus ROG Zephyrus G16 and the Razer Blade 16. But the performance is not everything.

It just keeps getting faster. Framework is squeezing as much as it can from its aging design all in the name of sustainability. It's working better than expected for the most part in terms of raw performance, but there are still a few key features we'd like to see.
AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 | AMD Radeon 890M | 13.50" | 1.3 kg

Lots of VRAM for little money! With the GeForce RTX 5060 Ti, Nvidia introduces its most affordable entry-level graphics card into the Blackwell generation thus far—and equips it with a particularly generous VRAM capacity for its mid-range category: an impressive 16 GB of GDDR7. But is this amount sufficient for today's demanding games, high-resolution scenarios, and future gaming titles? We thoroughly tested the Asus TUF Gaming RTX 5060 Ti OC through various benchmarks, real-world games, and application scenarios to clearly demonstrate the actual capabilities of this GPU.
AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D | NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 Ti | 1.1 kg

Best price-performance ratio. The Xiaomi Pad 7 not only offers powerful features at an attractive price but also makes for a complete package for school or university with the optional stylus and keyboard cover.

Pro Glyph. Nothing has released a Phone (3a) Pro. Above all, it should feature a better camera—plus, it supports eSIMs. Visually, you can clearly tell it's a Nothing phone by its back cover. Both 3a smartphones share a processor, display and battery. Our review will clarify what sets the Pro apart.
Qualcomm Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 | Qualcomm Adreno 810 | 6.77" | 211 g

AMD Ryzen AI Max is no joke. HP weren't exaggerating when they said their latest ZBook would be the "world's fastest 14-inch workstation PC". The Ryzen AI Max+ 395 runs well on specialized desktops and mini PCs, but it's even more impressive on a thin-and-light 14-inch form factor.
AMD Ryzen AI Max+ PRO 395 | AMD Radeon RX 8060S | 14.00" | 1.6 kg

A USB-C connection has surprising benefits. Manufacturers have been looking for ways to make reactive lighting more responsive. The Nanoleaf PC Screen Mirror Lightstrip avoids wireless latency without a pricey sync box. However, the USB-C connection results in less accessibility than other Nanoleaf lights.

Another blow for Windows on ARM? Microsoft now also offers its Surface Pro convertible equipped with Intel's Lunar Lake processors—but specifically targeted toward business customers. We have tested the OLED version and investigated whether private customers might be missing out on the better model.

Stargazing snapshots as if by magic. Stunning star shots made simple. Astrophotography is winning fans worldwide and now DwarfLab enters the scene with Dwarf 3 — a smart compact telescope that brings the cosmos closer for beginners. We put it to the test to see what it can really do.

Phone à l'orange. You can already buy the Motorola Moto G15 for less than $150. The affordable phone features a super attractive and well-made case with a stylish faux leather back. A large battery and practical wide-angle camera are additionally strong arguments in favor of the phone. We took a closer look in this review.

Duel in a mystical forest. On the south-eastern edge of Germany lies the Bavarian Forest National Park, a vast mountain forest. We took the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra and the Apple iPhone 16 Pro to see which smartphone captures animals, plants, and sweeping landscapes more effectively.

Brighter IPS display in the 14-inch laptop. The 2025 RedmiBook Pro 14 features Intel Arrow Lake CPUs, a brighter 120 Hz IPS display, and improved battery life. Despite a price increase, it remains a strong mid-range option.
Intel Core Ultra 7 255H | Intel Arc Graphics 140T | 14.00" | 1.4 kg

LiDAR without the iPhone. The latest version of the Magic7 Pro features an exterior that was once again developed by Porsche Design. However, the Honor Magic7 RSR offers even more than just a modified form; it also sets additional technical accents.
Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite | Qualcomm Adreno 830 | 6.80" | 228 g

Latest battery technology at an affordable price. The Honor Magic7 Lite is robust and lightweight despite its large battery. It also features a 108 MP camera and is claimed to have a screen brightness of over 4,000 nits. However, when it comes to the phone's key highlights, disappointment quickly sets in.
Qualcomm Snapdragon 6 Gen 1 | Qualcomm Adreno 710 | 6.78" | 189 g

With an extra AI button. Why spend more than $380 on a smartphone? For this price, you get the Nothing Phone (3a) with excellent everyday performance, great runtimes, 6 years of updates, a 120-Hz AMOLED screen and the unmistakable Glyph design. It also features a zoom camera, which is a real rarity for a mid-range phone.
Qualcomm Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 | Qualcomm Adreno 810 | 6.77" | 201 g

Cloud storage made easy. The Synology BeeStation positions itself as a beginner-friendly backup solution. While it doesn't have all the bells and whistles of a full-fledged NAS, it is a reliable solution that lets you back up and access your data from anywhere.

price-performance benchmark? With its 11-inch screen, the Apple iPad Air 2025 promises impressive performance thanks to the Apple M3. And this at a price starting at less than $600. Would we perhaps even recommend it more than expensive Android flagships? Read our review to find out.
Apple M3 | Apple M3 9-Core GPU | 10.86" | 460 g

Not a flagship killer. The Poco F7 Ultra, Xiaomi's flagship for 2025, offers a powerful overall package, a versatile camera, and some AI features. While it may not live up to the title of 'flagship killer,' it remains an impressive smartphone.
Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite | Qualcomm Adreno 830 | 6.67" | 212 g

Arrow Lake and 240 Hz OLED. Asus has updated its slim ROG Zephyrus G16 gaming laptop. For the 2025 models, the top-of-the-line version will feature an Arrow Lake processor and the new GeForce RTX 5090. The RAM remains soldered, but the maximum memory capacity has been doubled to 64 GB.
Intel Core Ultra 9 285H | Nvidia GeForce RTX 5090 Laptop | 16.00" | 1.9 kg

Even a flip cover and stylus are included. We put the device through its paces.
MediaTek Dimensity 8350 | ARM Mali-G615 MP6 | 11.50" | 475 g

Cutting a few too many corners. MSI's least expensive 15.6-inch gaming laptop sports modern features like a 144 Hz IPS screen, GeForce RTX 4050 graphics, and a Core-H series processor. However, you'll want to avoid certain SKUs especially those with just 8 GB of RAM.
Intel Core i5-12450H | NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050 Laptop GPU | 15.60" | 1.8 kg

The featherweight champion. As a long-distance runner with a powerful Core Ultra 7, the LG Gram Pro 16 is a strong companion for traveling. But the laptop also impresses at home and for entertainment with its brilliant sound and picture.
Intel Core Ultra 7 256V | Intel Arc Graphics 140V | 16.00" | 1.2 kg

Lots of lighting and SFF-ready. As a powerful alternative to the top-of-the-range Nvidia Blackwell graphics cards, the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti delivers surprisingly good performance. Using the KFA2 GeForce RTX 5070 Ti 1-Click OC, we analyzed its performance in comparison to the Nvidia GeForce RTX 5080 and the new AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT. In this review, we'll clarify whether its price of just over $1,000 is worth it.
AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D | NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5070 Ti | 1.3 kg

Update with Intel Lunar Lake. Lenovo has equipped its 10th-generation Yoga 7 2in1 with a Lunar Lake processor and a new 2.8K OLED panel, which, in addition to a refresh rate of 120 Hz, should now also achieve a significantly higher brightness of 1,000 nits. However, one known problem remains.
Intel Core Ultra 7 258V | Intel Arc Graphics 140V | 14.00" | 1.4 kg

An additional 500 to 1,000 dollars for what? HP's changed naming scheme is allowing it to charge a hefty premium for its new 14-inch business 2-in-1. We take a look at what the EliteBook X Flip G1i offers compared to its predecessor, the Elite x360 1040 G11 2-in-1.
Intel Core Ultra 7 258V | Intel Arc Graphics 140V | 14.00" | 1.5 kg

AMD Ryzen 9 7945HX | AMD Radeon 610M

Not a OnePlus Open 2. The Oppo Find N5 is the world's thinnest foldable smartphone, but despite its slim design, it comes with a few limitations. The foldable phone features a Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, a periscope camera, and an extra-large battery. Is Oppo already highlighting what the Galaxy Z Fold 7 can't offer?

An almost perfect 60% rapid trigger keyboard. The MonsGeek Fun60 Ultra offers nearly everything one would expect from a rapid trigger keyboard. And unlike most Hall-effect keyboards, this one is easy on the wallet.

Blade 16 slows the RTX 5090 Laptop GPU down. After a slight delay, Nvidia finally launches the new GeForce RTX 5000 Laptop GPUs and starts with the high-end model RTX 5090 Laptop. We were able to analyze the performance of the new GPU in combination with the Razer Blade 16 and check who should upgrade. Update: 175W versions of the RTX 5090 Laptop & 5080 Laptop in the XMG Neo 16 A25 show the full performance potential

Already going on strike? The compact Galaxy S model from Samsung has always been one of, if not the best phone among small Android phones. But the Galaxy S25 no longer seems to be able to live up to this status. At least, a glance at its datasheet gives us little hope. Or does Galaxy AI make all the difference?

Excellent build quality, decent battery life, and a num pad. The Keychron K4 HE proves that a quality wireless keyboard with Hall-effect switches doesn't need to cost the Earth. The K4 HE backs up its solid build and understated looks with a plethora of gaming features and a high degree of customisation via Keychron Launcher. The K4 HE isn't without flaws, but it is worth the $140 price tag because of its performance and features.

Too expensive for what it offers. The Envy x360 15 is HP's midrange convertible and yet it feels too barebones considering the $1200 USD asking price. Some aspects are commendable, but they are few and far between whereas competitors in the range can offer more.

Not magic, might as well be. The Iqunix Magi65 Pro makes some lofty claims, like a cushioned gasket mount, over 300 hours of battery life, and an ergonomic low-profile design in an all-metal chassis. The Magi65 Pro thus presents itself as a keyboard enthusiast's low-profile board, but does that play out in the real world?

A safe bet. The Samsung Galaxy S25+ boasts a range of premium features and combines a high-quality design with brute performance, a powerful display and long battery life. It also comes with 7 years of updates and even more AI. However, not much has changed compared to the Galaxy S24+, as our test reveals.
