HP 17t-cn500 laptop review: Big screen for basic multimedia

72% HP 17t-cn500 laptop review: Big screen for basic multimedia

Classic 17.3-inch display lives on. With seemingly everyone moving to 16:10 displays, the HP 17t is one of the few laptop models sticking with the tried-and-true 16:9 form factor. It's consequently one of the least expensive options for users who want a large 17.3-inch screen without breaking the bank.

The Crosshair 16 HX AI can handle 1440p gaming and even content creation fairly well, but there some obvious compromises to keep the price in check.

Affordable iPad alternative for artists marred by lacklustre stylus — Huion Kamvas Slate 13 hands-on test

If only it were $100 cheaper. The Huion Kamvas Slate 13 is a 13-inch Android tablet that's ostensibly designed for artists, with its matte display, sketch-friendly aspect ratio, and included stylus with 4096 levels of pressure sensitivity, but in our review, the tablet exhibits a number of compromises and one fatal flaw. The Huion Kamvas Slate 13 might be an ideal note-taking tablet, but there are better digital sketch pads.

Sitting somewhere between a fashion statement and a health companion, the Watch Series 11 aims to balance style with substance - and we put it to the review.

Unique design without the gaudy caveats. The Keychron L1 HE delivers a premium typing and gaming experience combined with unique design flairs, but at $239.99, it is not a cheap keyboard. This wireless Hall effect gaming keyboard justifies its price with an aluminium chassis, highly customisable sensors, and a gamer design language, but steers clear of the typical cringy looks we've come to expect from gaming peripherals.

Hardware update instead of innovation. The Geekom A8 brings together AMD’s Ryzen 7 8745HS, Radeon 780M graphics, DDR5 memory, and a PCIe SSD in a compact and modern chassis. It’s also more affordable than the top-tier variant, but can the slightly less powerful configuration keep up with the strong competition? And how efficient is the mini PC in everyday use? We put the Geekom A8 through extensive testing to evaluate its performance, efficiency, and overall capabilities.
