Intel Core i5-8259U | Intel Iris Plus Graphics 655 | 586 g

Give me more. Full HD screen and UFS storage are usually installed in expensive phones. However, realme packs these features into a smartphone that is available for as little as 180 Euros (~$190). In addition, the phone has a large battery and is quite light. So, is the realme C35 recommendable all around?
Unisoc T7255 (T616) | ARM Mali-G57 MP1 | 6.60" | 189 g

Enough power for 2560x1440. After years of 15- and 17-inch displays dominating the gaming scene, more and more 16-inch devices are entering the market. One of the best examples of this is the new version of the HP Omen 16 with an Alder Lake CPU and an Ampere GPU.
Intel Core i7-12700H | NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti Laptop GPU | 16.10" | 2.3 kg

Small flagship. The 6.1-inch Samsung Galaxy S22 is the smallest and most affordable model in the new Galaxy S22 series.

2nd generation XXL tablet. Samsung's latest alternative to Apple's iPad Pro 12.9 is the Galaxy Tab S8 Plus, a premium tablet with a brand-new Armor aluminum case, a very large Super AMOLED display, and a Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 SoC to lure in potential iPad customers. Will its high price be its downfall?
Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 | Qualcomm Adreno 730 | 12.40" | 572 g

True to its colors. The VivoBook stands out with a Ryzen 7 5700U APU, 16 GB RAM (dual-channel mode) and an OLED screen (FHD, 15.6 inch). The latter offers an excellent black level and good color space coverage (DCI-P3: 100%). This comes hand-in-hand with average battery runtimes.

AMD Ryzen 9 5900X | AMD Radeon RX 6500 XT | 32.00"

Balanced product care. The hallmarks of the Bose QuietComfort headphones are balanced sound and, above all, excellent noise suppression. Bose does a lot of fine-tuning with the QC 45 but fails to tackle an important area.

For just under 100 Euros, Roccat promises a micro all-in-one package for gamers and streamers. All important functions can be controlled via the stand, the manufacturer speaks of studio quality, many RGB options are available, an integrated pop filter is installed and there is even gesture control. Is the Torch the "carefree" package for all creatives?

Mirror City. The action adventure Ghostwire Tokyo is not only interesting in terms of gameplay but also technically. Hardly any other title shines with so many reflections - especially when ray tracing is active.

Nvidia-dGPU included. Asus has gone the extra mile: The 14-incher combines the easily adjustable graphics performance of an MX450 with a scalable Tiger Lake Core i7. On top of that, it has a colorful 3K widescreen OLED. Does this leave anything to be desired?
Intel Core i7-1165G7 | NVIDIA GeForce MX450 | 14.00" | 1.4 kg

Now with 144-Hz display. The new MagicBook 16 from Honor succeeds the MagicBook Pro and offers a 16.1-inch IPS display with 144 Hz and a fast AMD Ryzen 5000 processor. However, the 65-watt power supply is problematic, as it is too weak for this system.
AMD Ryzen 5 5600H | AMD Radeon RX Vega 7 | 16.10" | 1.8 kg

Intel Core i5-1145G7 | Intel Iris Xe Graphics G7 80EUs | 14.00" | 1.3 kg

Katar cuts many corners. The Corsair Katar Pro Wireless is a gaming mouse that is geared towards both productivity and casual gaming. The Katar Pro Wireless suits both claw and fingertip grip styles and performs well for the price. However, the ageing innards mean that you can only extract so much from this fully wireless mouse.

Large workspace. The Schenker Work 17 offers plenty of room to work. In addition, there's a powerful Intel Core i7, some upgrade options, and personalized configurations. The laptop also offers an RGB keyboard, which allows users to work at night too without any glare. Update: New BIOS version tested.

Small update with Ryzen 5000. Huawei now offers an updated version of the MateBook 14 with an AMD Ryzen 5000 processor, but it is not an 8-core CPU anymore. Is the compact subnotebook with AMD hardware still better than the version with the Tiger Lake Core i7-1165G7?
AMD Ryzen 5 5500U | AMD Radeon RX Vega 7 | 14.00" | 1.5 kg

Not a miracle machine, but sufficient. HP's Omen 16 with AMD's Ryzen processor is sparing in its use of gaming components. Top performance thus cannot be expected, but this is not strictly necessary in the case of many popular gaming titles. Moreover, the fun does not stop upon seeing the price, even if a few weaknesses come to light in the test.
AMD Ryzen 7 5800H | AMD Radeon RX 6600M | 16.10" | 2.3 kg

The Ryzen 7 4800U is aging pretty well. By moving from the Zen+ Ryzen 7 3750H to the Zen 2 Ryzen 7 4800U, the SER4 has made the SER3 obsolete. The Ryzen 7 4800U continues to closely match or sometimes exceed the fastest Intel NUCs powered by 11th gen Core i5-1135G7 or Core i7-1165G7 CPUs.

Subnotebook size with modern Ultrabook power. Just because you're small doesn't mean you can't perform like the big boys. The 12.5-inch Vaio SX12 may be tiny when compared to the usual 13-inch or 15-inch Ultrabook, but its 11th gen processor and FHD IPS display are just as fast and capable.
