84% Aorus 17X XES review: Gaming laptop with an i9-12900HX offers top performance

Not only for gaming. With its 360-Hertz panel, RGB keyboard, and Nvidia GeForce RTX 3070 Ti, the Gigabyte laptop is fully designed for gaming. At the same time, the Intel processor used and the amount of RAM also offer abundant power. How exactly this turns out will be shown by our benchmarks and gaming tests.

Test Xiaomi Mi Smart Band 7

Xiaomi Smart Band 7 review - Good fitness band with wasted potential & uncertainties

Conclusion after 6 weeks of use. The Smart Band 7 is very similar to the Smart Band 6 at first glance. However, the AMOLED display grows considerably in the current fitness tracker generation and also has an always-on function. However, the Xiaomi Mi Band 7 still lacks an important feature for athletes.

A Plus for performance. Not only does the Dell XPS 13 Plus have a touch bar and a completely new keyboard, but it also offers more performance than the base XPS version thanks to Alder Lake P. We review Dell's entry into the high-performance XPS world through our test unit equipped with a Core i5, 512 GB, and a Sharp Full HD display.

Outdoor phone with superpowers. The AGM Glory G1S can see in the dark, play with cats, dive, and detects cold bridges in walls. This is made possible by special components that also make the outdoor smartphone heavy and bulky. Is the AGM Phone only a special tool, or can it also be used in everyday life?

79% Honor Magic4 Lite 5G review: Smartphone with big display and strong battery

It's a kind of magic. Magic represents Honor's top league of smartphones. Lite, on the other hand, is an indicator of slimmed-down hardware. The Honor Magic4 Lite 5G thus falls in the middle between two poles. 120 Hz refresh rate, but only an LC display. Triple camera, but neither wide-angle nor telephoto lens. Magic or Lite? Read our review to find out.

A Dynabook dinosaur? The Portege X40-K is the company's premium business laptop retailing for over $1400 USD and yet it comes with a display that's found on budget laptops for almost half the price. The model could certainly use more updates beyond just the new 12th gen CPU.

92% Apple MacBook Air M2 review - The faster 10-core GPU isn't worth it

The expensive Air has to throttle earlier. After we tested the basic model, we now also got our hands on the faster version of the new MacBook Air with 16 GB of RAM, a large 1-TB SSD, and the faster 10-core GPU version of the M2 and ran it through our tests. However, the graphics update is particularly disappointing, since the passively cooled MacBook Air M2 needs to throttle its performance quickly.

This is how it gambles without a top-of-the-line SoC. As a cheaper gaming model, the Xiaomi Black Shark 5 comes with a fast but not a top processor. However, the 144 Hz screen of the Pro model remains. Is the Black Shark 5 too slow, or still a bargain for gamers?

88% Dell XPS 13 9315 laptop in review: Low performance, incredible battery life

Risking more minimalism. P processors for the XPS Plus, U processors for the normal XPS. Dell's fragmentation shows: You can forget about the normal version with a U-class processor, if you are after fast performance in a 13-inch device. Instead, it is meant for entertainment and simple office tasks with its good runtimes, low emissions, and high-contrast FHD display.

ThinkPad meets XPS 13 - with Ryzen. Why is there no ThinkPad X1 with AMD CPUs? That's because there's now a premium series exclusively for AMD with the ThinkPad Z series. The Lenovo ThinkPad Z13 G1 presents many arguments in its favor in our review, and it's one of the best compact laptops so far in 2022.

Entry-level GeForce RTX 3050 gaming. After having just reviewed the TUF Dash F15 with GeForce RTX 3070 graphics, let's see how it compares to the less expensive GeForce RTX 3050 option. The cheaper GPU is slower, of course, but it disappoints in other key areas as well.

No notch? No problem. The Axon 40 Ultra is different. The selfie camera on ZTE's new flagship is hidden underneath the display. Furthermore, there are as many as three 64MP cameras on the phone's glass back cover, including a telephoto lens with 3.5x optical zoom. The other high-end components such as the 120 Hz AMOLED display and the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 seem almost pedestrian in comparison.

Hands-On Xgimi Aura Projector - Inexpensive laser TV with Android and good features

The Xgimi Aura laser TV could be an interesting solution for those who find a normal TV too boring, or who simply want image diagonals of up to 120 inches at an affordable price. The short-throw projector shows what it can do in our first impression.

Nothing Phone (1)

86% Review: Nothing Phone (1) – transparent designer piece at mid-range price

Is (it) cool enough? The former director of OnePlus is once again making a smartphone. This is of course going to make people take notice. The Nothing Phone (1) sets out to do many things differently and already looks quite cool with the LEDs on its rear. But at 500 Euros (£449), is it able to impress us during our review?

Lots of talent - with ifs and buts. Schenker advertises the new XMG Pro 15 with a powerful RTX 3080 Ti as an all-round talent for gamers and workstation users. Powerful hardware meets a new Clevo case, which is intended to improve on the weaknesses of the predecessor. Whether this succeeds is revealed in our detailed review below.

Affordable and good. The Motorola Moto G42 is impossible to beat, at least from the perspective of its mid-range rivals. With its bright OLED panel, a 5,000 mAh battery, and a 50 MP camera, the 6.4-inch smartphone offers a lot of features, but it's available for just under 200 Euros (~$205).

The Latitude 7330 wants to do it all by giving users the option to choose between three different materials.

The extensive connectivity and a very distinct cooling system also indicate that the laptop is striving for the highest performance. However, Schenker probably has another reason for calling the laptop a gaming workstation, and this also became noticeable in our review.

82% Motorola Moto G82 5G smartphone review: OLED, optical image stabilization and large battery

Also rainproof. The Moto G82 5G is a nice addition to Motorola's portfolio at a typical mid-range price of around EUR 330. Thanks to its strong features, similarly priced smartphones appear less attractive by comparison. But does the Moto G82 play all its cards right?

84% Asus VivoBook S 14X S5402Z review: World's first 14.5-inch 2.8K 120 Hz OLED laptop

Almost a ZenBook. Despite being "only" a Vivobook, the Vivobook S 14X uses the same 14.5-inch Samsung OLED panel as the Zenbook Pro 14 Duo for a similar viewing experience at a much cheaper price. If you're looking to spend just under $1000 USD on an Ultrabook, then this Asus can offer a lot for the money.

83% Samsung Galaxy A33 5G review: Better than its predecessor in almost every area

Success model. With its Galaxy A33 5G, Samsung has identified and remedied the weaknesses of the Galaxy A32 5G predecessor. With a 90 Hz AMOLED display, a more modern SoC and a waterproof case, the mid-range smartphone even comes dangerously close to matching the Galaxy A53 5G.

Very hot! MSI has opted for high-end components. The CPU and graphics card are in the same league as the best gaming laptops. The excellent display as well as a remarkably slim case, on the other hand, show its multimedia nature. The combination is bound to lead to conflicts, but it promises creative peak performance.

Intel Arc A370M debut: Asus ZenBook Flip 15 Q539ZD 2-in-1 review

88% Intel Arc A370M debut: Asus ZenBook Flip 15 Q539ZD 2-in-1 review

Who needs GeForce MX anymore? The Zenbook Flip 15 is back with 12th gen Intel Core H CPUs and the new Intel Arc A370M GPU to replace last year's Core U options and the GeForce GTX 1650 Max-Q, respectively. While CPU performance is insanely fast for a convertible, perhaps the GeForce MX550 would have been the better move.
