Intel Core i7-13700HX | NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 Laptop GPU | 16.00" | 2.6 kg

The Pro 15 for budget foxes. If you can do without a metal case and a full RGB keyboard, you do not necessarily have to go for the expensive XMG Pro 15. In our test, the XMG Focus 15 is just as performant and only has to take a back seat in few aspects. In return, the base price of the Focus 15 is about €400 less than that of the Pro 15 for practically similar performance.

Annoying fan & reduced performance. Acer have updated their Swift X 14 - this time giving the multimedia laptop a fresh new case, a new OLED panel as well as new components from Intel and Nvidia. Unfortunately, the total package of this $1,400 device seems to only impress on paper and next to its relatively short battery life in everyday use, the laptop's cooling system also proves to cause some issues.
Intel Core i7-13700H | NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050 Laptop GPU | 14.50" | 1.5 kg

Phone with vision. A wide-angle camera in a phone that is sold for under 200 Euros (~$218) is not a matter of course. The Honor X7a has one, but it might also have some drawbacks due to its slow processor. We take a closer look in the test.

Ultra-ultrawide. With an aspect ratio of 32:9 and a resolution of 5,120 x 1,440, the Philips 45B1U6900C is essentially equivalent to putting two conventional 16:9 displays together side by side. The SuperWide aspect ratio goes even wider than the 21:9 ultrawide format. In this hands-on review, we'll discuss whether this monitor anything else to offer other than its extreme width.

Quiet times. The gaming laptop's i7-13700H and the RTX 4060 are perfectly suited to modern games. And, on top of that, the Nitro 17 hardly suffers from any weaknesses. So far, so predictable.

Home server made easy. A Raspberry Pi is now too mainstream, too expensive, too underpowered, too complicated, too bare without a heatsink and case? Raise the curtain on the Zimaboard, an all-in-one alternative with two LAN and SATA ports and even a PCIe slot, fully configurable, with a stronger X86 instead of an ARM processor and almost unlimited expandability.
