Wasted performance! Minisforum's Venus series offers a lot of power in the smallest of footprints. We have already put the top model, aka the UM690, through its paces. Now we turn to the UM560 XT which is equipped with the Ryzen 5 5600H. Our review reveals how well the system fares. However, one thing is already clear: In terms of price and performance, the Minisforum Venus Series UM560 XT leads the pack.

Finally not USB 2.0 anymore. With its flagship smartphone, Xiaomi aims to climb the camera throne again this year in the smartphone segment. The 13 Ultra even uses four lenses with a 50 MP resolution and focal length of up to 120 mm. Find out here, whether the Leica cameras are convincing in our test and where the problems are again.

Complete package. The Poco X5 has a bright 120-Hz screen, a 48-MPix camera, 5G and even a fast-charging power supply. NFC, the ability to expand storage via a microSD card and a headphone jack complete the setup. Our review will show whether or not the Poco X5 is a perfectly-happy device.

It googles. Unlike the non-Pro variant, the Xgimi Horizon Pro has 4K capability and is sharper by some margin. It offers a whole host of convenience features that greatly simplify the user's theatre experience. In this hands-on review, we'll reveal how we went from being initially quite frustrated by the product (despite those features) to becoming very impressed by it.

Slim beauty. The Honor Magic5 Lite 5G does a lot better than its predecessor, but it still relies on the same Snapdragon 695 SoC that is still very common in this price range. Externally, the Magic5 Lite convinces with its slim build that also accommodates a large 5,100 mAh battery.

Tap into the sun's power on the go. PEARL offer a solar panel that weighs less than 1 kg and is about the size of a book when it is folded together - but is supposedly able to deliver 28 watts when folded open. You are supposed to be able to attach it to your backpack or bike or use it while you are camping, in order to use the sun's energy to charge your phone or power bank. We took the "on-the-go" panel with us on our bike tour from Berlin to Poland to see how well it works in practice.

Belt instead of a chain. The ADO Air isn't supposed to transport heavy goods or complete a bike tour around the mountains - the Air 20 is a hobby bike, a city speeder! This is thanks to its folding mechanism, belt drive, single-gear drive, seating position and relatively light weight. We have put the foldable speedster to the test.

Supports up to four M.2 NVMe SSDs. The Raptor X17 incorporates a brand new design with some of the fastest 13th gen Raptor Lake-H CPUs and Nvidia Ada Lovelace GPUs currently available on any laptop. However, it's gonna have to do a bit more on other fronts to better differentiate itself against more well-known makers.

Gaming whisperer. Medion's gaming laptop offers a well-rounded level of equipment: Core i7, RTX 4050, 16 GB of RAM, 1-TB SSD, and 144-Hz display. With the right setting adjustments, the laptop allows gaming with low noise development. The whole package is available for about 1,500 Euros (~$1,658).

Good and affordable! The KFA2 GeForce RTX 4070 Ti EX Gamer is currently one of the most affordable representatives of the RTX 4070 Ti models. Find out in this detailed review whether this pick from the lower shelf is worthwhile. But one thing already stands out at the first glance: This model doesn't offer an elaborate RGB illumination.

Robust working device. Compact and light at 14 inches and around 1.4 kg, no reliance on fast WLAN thanks to its LTE connectivity, and solid performance in everyday use: These are all things the HP EliteBook 645 G9 boasts. Our review will show which strengths the laptop has and where there is still room to improve.

iPad 10 but with Android. OnePlus has finally ventured into Android tablets, a territory that is fast being ceded almost wholly to Apple and Samsung. Featuring a MediaTek Dimensity 9000 SoC and a fast, vivid 144 Hz 7:5 display, the OnePlus Pad aims to differentiate itself with a slew of accessories including the Magnetic Keyboard and OnePlus Stylo. We explore different aspects of the OnePlus Pad in this review and see if it can be a worthy portable companion. Review now complete.

Reduce, reuse, repair, recycle. Framework has established itself as a unique and successful player in the laptop market dominated by popular flagship models like the Dell XPS, HP Spectre, Lenovo Yoga, or Asus Zenbook. The Framework Laptop 13.5 is back this year and it's faster than ever, but the overall design could use some more customization.

Cyberpunk on the go. The Asus ROG Ally is a powerful gaming handheld and a direct competitor for Valve’s Steam Deck. Thanks to powerful hardware from AMD, which is based on the latest Zen4 Phoenix mobile processors, the gaming handheld even handles modern games smoothly. Update: Benchmarks with the XG Mobile RTX 4090 Laptop

New Search for Meaning. The Sense 2 is Fitbit's top smartwatch. It comes with many sensors, an aluminum casing and Google apps. It can also be used for phone calls and payments. Our review explains who should take a closer look at the Sense 2 and who should keep their hands off it.

Smart mobilizer. The Gazelle Ultimate C380 is a sporty trekking bike. It shows its strengths as a powerful companion for commuters and as a relaxed tourer. Thanks to the Bosch Smart System, it can be customized and is protected against theft. Our test will show how it rides.

Quiet throughout! We were already able to take a look at the top-of-the-range Morefine M600 with an AMD Ryzen 9 6900HX - now, it is time to look at the M600 with an AMD Ryzen 5 6600U, which is also part of AMD's Rembrandt series. In this review, you can take a look at how well the mid-range SoC did in our tests and whether this model is worth buying.

Modernity meets past times. The Cat S75 is a true rugged outdoor phone with high IP certification and military protection standards. However, the highlight of the Cat smartphone is the communication with geostationary satellites, which is supposed to offer advantages over Apple's satellite emergency call.

Blow to blow. No sooner had we finished reviewing the third generation Lenovo Tab M8 when Lenovo had already launched its 4th gen device. A few things have changed, both design-wise and internally. Our Lenovo Tab M8 Gen 4 review reveals that changes are not necessarily always improvements.

Galaxy Book Air. Low weight (approx. 1.2 kg), compact size and an AMOLED screen in a work-friendly 16:10 format (2,880 x 1,800) characterize Samsung's 14-incher. Two Thunderbolt 4 ports and very good battery life also add to the notebook's appeal.

Ultrawide on the laptop. Today we put an unusual product to the test: a dual-screen accessory that attaches to a 16-inch laptop using a clamp rail, expanding your screen real estate by a total of two additional displays on the left and right. Both additional displays offer 2K resolution, 144 Hz, DCI-P3, all while being foldable and mobile. We test the folding displays in a triple-display setup.

Good performance and very efficient! Nvidia have extended their Ada Lovelace architecture portfolio with the release of the GeForce RTX 4070. This new introductory model still isn't the cheapest, but it delivers solid performance and features 12 GB VRAM - just like the Ti model. In this detailed review, you can read about how well the KFA2 model did on our test track featuring a range of benchmarks.

The best display for bargain hunters? The Redmi Note 12 is aimed at price-conscious buyers with a bright OLED panel and Snapdragon SoC. In addition, it offers a strong configuration for little money with an audio jack, storage expansion, an IP rating, and fast charging technology. However, an important feature has been omitted.

A generous upgrade. The Galaxy A14 5G comes in hot this year with its high resolution display and fast memory. In other areas, the Samsung phone has room for improvement. In this review, you can find out about what makes this smartphone still worth buying.

Delicate Gram. A low weight of about 1.35 kg (~2.98 lb), an excellent battery life, and a matte 17-inch display (2,560 x 1,600 pixels) in the 16:10 format represent the highlights of the LG Gram 17. They are accompanied by two Thunderbolt 4 ports and a good keyboard.

Innovative smartwatch or a product destined to fail? The Huawei Watch Buds marks the beginning of a new era of smartwatches, at least according to the Chinese manufacturer. Read our review to find out whether the novel wearable concept has the potential to establish itself and for whom the purchase of the premium smartwatch might be worthwhile.

Creative beast on a leash. The Galaxy Book3 Ultra's computing power is not visible from the outside. While the RTX 4070 and i9-13900H are definitely the stuff of a powerful gaming laptop, these components are housed in an extremely slim and discreet case. This is only possible with significantly reduced power consumption, which does not hinder performance as much as one might expect.

Zombie invasion in a pretty setting. Dead Island 2 might not be the best game of the year, but the mixture of splatter action and dignified Hollywood atmosphere definitely has its appeal. You can find the hardware requirements in our benchmark check.

Gaming ultrabook. Lenovo is offering its new Yoga Pro 7 14 with the GeForce RTX 4050 Laptop GPU and a matte 3K display with 120 Hz and P3 color space coverage. This turns the compact 14-inch device into a powerful multimedia device that can also run the latest games.

Well cooled is half done! Minisforum have extended their Venus series portfolio with the release of the sleek mini PC NAB6. Based on an Intel Core i7-12650H, the NAB6 is well-prepared for many different uses. Its price is okay, but a few compromises will likely have to be made. Which compromises these are exactly will be discussed in our detailed review.

Everyday workhorse. A 120Hz screen, solid performance, long battery life, a 50MP camera and a stylish design – on paper, the Motorola Moto G73 5G has everything a good mid-tier smartphone needs. For slightly under €300 (US$330), you are also getting an almost stock Android 13 and plenty of storage. As you'll see in our review, however, the 6.5-inch device doesn’t always do everything better than its predecessor.

Fast and fabulous. For a 14-inch notebook, the Gigabyte Aero 14 OLED BMF has a lot to offer. The powerful screen is already included in the name. With a Core i7 and a Nvidia RTX 4050, strong performance is guaranteed. But the internals are not the only selling point of the 14-incher, which also offers an impressive keyboard with a decent travel.

140 W TGP graphics. The Legion Pro 5 series is home to Lenovo's midrange gaming laptops, but our expectations are nonetheless high considering the lofty starting price of over $1400 USD for just the RTX 4050. The model impresses on most fronts so long as you can live with some notable drawbacks.

1080p gaming using an iGPU? Last year's Radeon 680M was much faster than Intel's iGPU and AMD are looking to further extend this lead with the release of their new Radeon 780M. We have received our first device equipped with the new 780M and have put it through a variety of benchmarks - can these high expectations be met? Update: Radeon 780M benchmarks with LPDDR5-6400 RAM

Moderate condition for an otherwise good game. Publisher EA have not made it easy for themselves in the past years - as blunders in the form of Pay to Win in Fifa or Jedi Survivor's bad performance in combination with high hardware requirements have shown. Which graphics card do you need in order to have fluid lightsaber battles?

Imbalanced. Despite the 16-inch format, the Samsung Galaxy Book3 Pro 16 can be considered a mobile laptop because of its compact size, low weight, and very good battery life. In addition, it offers an AMOLED display in the work-friendly 16:10 format (2,880 x 1,800 pixels) and a powerful Core i5 processor.

Mendocino? More like Mendocinope The Acer Aspire 3 with AMD's Mendocino-based Ryzen 5 7520U processor targets the low-end market with its affordable price. It features a 15.6-inch TN panel, a 512 GB NVMe SSD, 8 GB of soldered LPDDR5 RAM, and a 40 Wh battery. Is it worth sacrificing some features to save a few bucks? Read on to find out.

Fast and furious. Motorola's flagship series is back, starting with the Edge 40 Pro in 2023. At just under US$1000, the premium smartphone has become a little more expensive, but still offers convincing specs such as a 165 Hz screen, fast charging technology and stock Android. Does this succeed?

Playstation. The Asus ROG Phone 7 Ultimate is a gaming smartphone without compromises. Almost all hardware is high-end, such as the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, 16 GB of RAM, 512 GB of storage and a 6.78-inch 165 Hz display. The list doesn't end there, because a 6000 mAh battery and an external fan are also included, among other things.

Few steps forward, several steps back. The OnePlus 11 promises a premium, flagship-class smartphone experience with its Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 SoC, improved imaging sensors, UFS 4.0 storage, and long-term OS updates. However, OnePlus complements these developments with a few regressions in order to keep the price competitive.

I'll be back. Three years ago, the Samsung Galaxy Tab A7 was one of the best affordable tablets for us. Now the Korean manufacturer brings an updated version with a new SoC to the market. Find out in our test what has changed and whether the 10.4-inch tablet is still worthwhile.

Light and shade. After quite a delay, the first 4 nm chips are being brought onto the market. We finally got our hands on the new Phoenix series Ryzen 9 7940HS in order to test the processor's performance and check out its efficiency levels using different power levels. Was the wait worth it?

Green wave. The manufacturer wants to become even more sustainable with the Nokia G22: сomponents made of recycled plastic and good repairability should help. You can find out how the mid-range phone performs in everyday use and which suggestions for improvement we have in the test.

Solid FHD projector. The Xgimi Horizon is well-suited for most home theaters. The projector puts out a bright image, and its speakers are loud and clear. However, there are some shortcomings that bring its US$1100 price tag into question.

NUC but quiet! The Geekom Mini IT12 is an interesting alternative to the well-known Intel NUC models. The Taiwanese manufacturer has chosen a mobile Intel Alder Lake SoC. In this review, we took a closer look at what this mini PC can deliver, and whether it can live up to the class leader, Intel. Thanks to its Thunderbolt port, we were also able to take a look at its gaming performance using an external GPU.

Really awesome? The Galaxy A54 5G is the poster child for Samsung's mid-range devices. Our review highlights upgrades over last year's model, especially the SoC, display brightness, a new sensor for the main camera as well as eSIM support. The smartphone's design has also been given an overhaul and is reminiscent of the Galaxy S series.

Slimmer isn't always better. Asus has completely reworked last year's Zenbook S13 OLED, and the new 2023 model has now become lighter and also slimmer. In addition, Asus has replaced the AMD chip with an Intel Raptor Lake processor, but that isn't really an advantage. In everyday operation, the two fans are also a problem.

Super-sized 16-inch 2-in-1. Most convertible laptops tend to be small to better accommodate tablet mode. However, some users may still prefer a larger touchscreen even if it means a heavier system. The 16-inch Lenovo Yoga 7 16 fulfills that niche quite well and at an affordable price, too.

Debut for the Ryzen 9 7940HS. The 2023 Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 is the first laptop with AMD’s new Phoenix mobile processor, which is combined with the fast GeForce RTX 4090 Laptop and a 165 Hz Mini-LED panel in a compact 14-inch laptop.

The somewhat different "tabletop". Nvidia's new, more efficient RTX 40 generation makes it possible: the high-end graphics cards can be packed into ever smaller form factors. Asus takes this even further, simply installing an RTX 4060 in a 13-inch tablet instead of a 13-inch laptop. This comes with a magnetic keyboard, thus doubling it as a convertible. So can we play AAA games on tablets now?

The golden mean? Samsung attempts to balance performance, mobility, power consumption and noise emissions in the Galaxy Book 3 Ultra 16 - and does well as a result. The Core i7-13700H and GeForce RTX 4050 deliver plenty of performance for gaming and rendering, even at reduced power.

In the midrange or classy? The newest version of Lenovo's midrange tablet again includes support for a docking station and an input pen. While more modern software and a fast display are supposed to give wings to the multimedia pad, unfortunately what we find in our test are not only improvements...

Zen for the rest of us. The AMD Ryzen 5 7600 is a 65 W Raphael CPU that aims to lower the barrier for AAA gaming and content creation tasks. In this review, we test AMD's entry-level Zen 4 SKU, see how it compares with the competition including Intel Raptor Lake and Alder Lake along with other Zen 3 and Zen 4 offerings, and evaluate if this can be a viable CPU for your next mainstream build.

Added value. Samsung's Galaxy A34 5G is the latest mid-range model of the Galaxy A series, comes with a Galaxy S23 look and does a few things better than its predecessor. The Super AMOLED screen has grown to 6.6 inches and achieves more than 1000 cd/m². The inexpensive smartphone has also improved in terms of processor performance and storage capacity.

The last samurai. The Lenovo ThinkPad P15v Gen 3 will be the final ThinkPad with the classic 1.8 mm keyboard. It's also the first workstation model in the ThinkPad series with the AMD Ryzen 6000H series - the mixture of old and new in this relatively inexpensive ThinkPad workstation is exciting.

Expensive office laptop. Microsoft have updated the Surface Laptop 5 with Alder Lake processors and Thunderbolt 4 - but the rest of the device has remained the same. Neither performance nor features can make up for the laptop's premium price.

Colors right in your iris. If you look for 4K or UHD projectors on Amazon (at least in Europe), the CASIRIS A6 laser projector will show up near the top of the list for around EUR 2,150 ($2,370). We therefore organized a sample in order to test this ultra-short-throw (UST) projector with 2,200 ANSI Lumens, HDR 10, WiFi and Bluetooth.

Upgraded. Medion's heavily equipped gaming notebook offers a large 16-inch screen (QHD+, 240 Hz, G-Sync) in 16:10 format, a mechanical keyboard, 32 GB of RAM and a whopping 2 TB of storage space. A Core i9-13900HX and a GeForce RTX 4070 drive the powerful computing behemoth.

Dynamic AMOLED2X The Samsung Galaxy Book3 Pro 360 actually beats our measurement hardware with its lighting-fast display. The same cannot be said for the Intel Core i5-1340P. This is the Raptor Lake processor's debut at Notebookcheck and it hast left us ... unimpressed.

Clevo in Gigabyte's clothing. Gigabyte's foray into the Indian market kicks off with the midrange G5 series. The G5 KE is based on a Clevo design and shares similar specs as the larger G7 KE including an Intel Core i5-12500H CPU, an Nvidia GeForce RTX 3060 Laptop GPU, and a 144 Hz display. While the Gigabyte G5 KE gets most of the gaming basics right, buyers will have to contend with compromises in other areas.

50 W GeForce RTX 4070 graphics. Whereas the 2022 XPS 15 topped out at GeForce RTX 3050 Ti graphics, this year's model has upped the ante to a GeForce RTX 4070. As impressive as that may sound on paper, there are significant compromises that users ought to be aware of before pulling the trigger on the latest 2023 model.

In one point not up to date anymore. The Redmi Note 12 Pro aims to set new standards in the midrange with a new camera sensor and optical image stabilization. In addition to the "flagship camera," the new MediaTek Dimensity 1080 processor is also used. Find out here whether an upgrade from the Redmi 11 Pro is worthwhile.

Quiet gaming. The Stealth 17 is reluctant to ascend to the fps throne. It prefers to offer fast video editing, relaxing gaming sessions and brilliant images and tries to find the middle ground between a laptop for creators and gamers. The RTX 4080, an Intel Core i9-13900H as well as a 4K mini-LED display provide an excellent basis for this - if only it weren't for some minor flaws.

The best smartphone in its price segment? Poco advertises nothing less than that as far as it concerns the X5 Pro. With a powerful Snapdragon chipset, flexible AMOLED display, and 108-MP camera, all the signs for our test of the Poco smartphone are good. But will this be enough for a purchase recommendation for the Poco smartphone?

AMD Yoga with USB 4. The Lenovo Yoga Pro 14 is a brand-new ultrabook available with either AMD or Intel CPUs and can even be configured with a dedicated Nvidia RTX 40 Series GPU. This, in conjunction with the fantastic keyboard and great IPS display, makes it one of the best compact laptops money can buy right now.

Small and silent! PCs don't always have to be big and bulky. Many mini PCs we have tested previously have proven this. The Higole PC Stick's manufacturer has taken this a step further by managing to fit the whole of the PC's hardware into a case reminiscent of an oversized USB stick. We took a closer look at the device and what its Intel Celeron J4125 is capable of.

Gone with the wind. Gaming in 21:9 ultrawide aspect ratio can be very impressive. When working, placing several windows side by side can be handy. So far, there have been mostly suboptimal VA panels and some more expensive IPS representatives. Philips, on the other hand, sends a curved OLED with fast response times, 175 Hz and potentially great colors into the race. We test whether it is worth it for gamers and productive users.

Plenty of storage. The Teclast T50 advertises with a lot of space for data, good sound, and LTE support, including phone function, for little money. Can the tablet from the Far East keep this promise, or are there problems?

Just buy the older 2022 model. Don't be fooled by the fresh 7000 series name as this is very much a 6000 series processor. The Zen 3+ Ryzen 7 7735HS is still powerful especially when it comes to integrated graphics, but it offers essentially nothing over the less expensive Ryzen 7 6800H or older Ryzen 9 6900HS.

Like a Pro? Telekom have introduced their own range of T Phone smartphones - there is even a Pro model. The phones feature a quad camera, large display, NFC and an audio jack. On top of this, software updates are available for a long time. In this review, you can find out whether the T Phone Pro is a Pro model for everyone.

Still powerful for the size. The Slim Pro 7 is a versatile multimedia solution with H-series CPUs and GeForce RTX graphics. The latest model is one of the first to ship with the Ryzen 7 7735HS, but performance is slower than the older Intel Core i7-12700H especially in single-threaded workloads.

The brightest lamp in the lamp store. Massive, robust, stable - that's how the CAT S53 looks at first glance. The phone with 5G and 2 LED lights not only provides a bright working environment but is also resistant to water, dust, and drops. In the test, we take a look at the phone's suitability for everyday use.

Questionable Update. The Xiaomi Redmi 10C was able to convince with fast storage and NFC for a cheap price. Now we have the successor, the Redmi 12C, in review. You can find out why it cannot keep up with its predecessor in our test.

Memory monster! The ACEMagician ACE-CK10-8259U is a small office PC based on a native 4-core processor. However, its processor is still part of the Coffee Lake generation, which wouldn't necessarily be the first choice for new devices anymore. Nevertheless, the manufacturer has provided this model with enough performance potential for everyday use. We put the ACEMagician ACE-CK10-8259U through its paces, and this review will show you everything the SoC can do.

A large 2-in-1 with bags of stamina. With the IdeaPad Flex 5 16, Lenovo is offering a large 16-inch 2-in-1 which even includes a stylus and all for under $1,000. Internally, the AMD Ryzen 7 7730U is based on an old processor, however, despite this, performance is still competitive.

Extreme powerhouse! The latest Gigabyte Aorus 17X is packed with the best the laptop market currently has to offer. Nvidia's GeForce RTX 4090 and Intel's Core i9-13900HX belong to the absolute high-end range and Gigabyte packs these two powerhouses into a very slim laptop. Find out whether this combination works in our detailed review with its numerous measurements and benchmarks.

Entry-level model. Lenovo traditionally like to reuse their T series ThinkPad laptops as workstations. The ThinkPad P14s Gen 3, for example, is the ThinkPad T14 Gen 3's counterpart. Unusual for a mobile workstation: The P14s doesn't have a dedicated GPU.

AMP-ed up 1440p Ultra gaming. The Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070 comes across as the cheapest Ada GPU yet at a US$599 MSRP. Embargoes on high-end variants of the RTX 4070, including the current Zotac Gaming GeForce RTX 4070 AMP Airo, lift today. We put Zotac's high-end RTX 4070 to the test and see whether the extra US$100 over the RTX 4070 Founders Edition is of any benefit in outsmarting the RTX 3080 of yore and competition from AMD. Updated with emissions and power measurements

Power saver. The compact Cyborg 15 is not designed for the highest performance, but mobility, a long battery life, and low power consumption play a big role. Nonetheless, the Core i7-12650H and GeForce RTX 4060 still allow you to play all the current games smoothly on the Cyborg 15.

Betwixt and between. A unibody design in an entry-level notebook is what the MateBook D 14 offers, which also boasts internal values such as a long battery life, high system performance and quiet operation. All key aspects fit the bill for an office laptop, but there are some weaknesses in the details.

With understatement. Slim aluminum casing, low weight, and chic appearance. The Amazfit GTR 4 is an elegant companion - yet it is not stingy with technical features: Extensive sports tracking, accurate satellite connection, and speakers, all on board. Our test shows whether there is a catch.

Ample space for photos. NFC, fast screen, plenty of storage - Motorola's Moto G13 looks like a great offer for well under 200 Euros at first glance. But can the camera also convince? And what about the battery runtimes? We take a closer look in our test.

Large allrounder. A large display with a high, 4K resolution in a simple case together with computing power from Intel's 12th generation, 32 GB of DDR4 RAM, and a dedicated GeForce GPU – the HP Envy 17-cr0079ng package sounds interesting. Find out in our Notebookcheck test whether the multimedia laptop is also convincing users in practice.

2nd generation water cooler. The first generation model proved that the concept can work, but what does the second generation model bring to the table? It's a refinement for sure even though core temperatures can still be quite high.

Premium value? The Xiaomi 13 Lite is the cheapest smartphone in the Xiaomi 13 series, but still costs up to EUR 500. In return, the 6.55-inch device attempts to win over buyers with features such as a dual selfie camera and a 1000 nits bright rounded display, and is the first EU smartphone with Snapdragon 7 Gen 1. We put the smartphone through its paces.

AMD Zen 4 and 175 W GeForce RTX 40 combo. Asus' latest gaming laptop is one of the fastest in the market and it doesn't even need any Intel parts. You'll still want to keep a close eye on those high core temperatures, though.

Indulge yourself! The Honor Magic5 Pro is a powerful high-end smartphone with a very good triple camera, a large 5,100-mAh battery, fast charging, 3D face recognition, and finally also with a long period of guaranteed updates. On the other hand, our test also shows a few small equipment gaps.

RTX 4070 and 165 Hz. Asus increases the performance of its gaming convertible ROG Flow Z13 and equips the ACRNM special edition with a Core i9-13900H and the new GeForce RTX 4070 Laptop. This means the 13-inch convertible can also handle modern games like Cyberpunk 2077 in the native WQHD resolution.

1200 nits with full sRGB coverage. The rugged Dell tablet also happens to be one of the few PCs to ship with the 12th gen Core i5-1240U processor. While we have some minor quibbles with certain features, the overall core experience remains very user friendly.

Intel's product refresh. Intel’s Raptor Lake has already superseded Alder Lake in the company's desktop CPU line-up, offering more performance across the board. Raptor Lake mobile CPUs are now following suit, and Intel is also updating its mini-PC range. We took an in-depth look at the latest Arena Canyon NUC featuring a Core i7-1360P. In this review, we’ll discuss what this mini-PC can do and what useful feature are on board.

A success. With the right settings, the Aorus 15X allows for gaming with low noise emissions - despite its powerful hardware. Additionally, the laptop features three video outputs, Thunderbolt 4 and great runtimes.

The eye listens. Whether you're gaming with the boys or girls or streaming professionally, a quality and comfortable audio solution is actually indispensable these days. The headphone specialists from Audio Technica are sending their latest headset with XLR connector into the race.

Business class. The Acer TravelMate scores with a strong Alder Lake CPU, moderate emissions, and good battery runtimes. A large 16-inch screen in a work-friendly 16:10 format (1,920 x 1,200 pixels) and a three-year warranty round off the overall package.

Scary enough to crash your PC. In-game enemies are not the only things frightening about Resident Evil 4 Remake. Some of the hardware requirements can also be quite intimidating. Read on to find out what kind of graphical power you need to run the game properly.

Sustainability bolide. Gigaset's GX4 is a robust rugged smartphone that brings along many forgotten virtues: An exchangeable battery, audio jack, and microSD support. But that is not all, Gigaset also provides a long update supply. There are some compromises to be made, however, which we detail in our review.

Versatile. Customizable. But also technically, it has a lot to offer with its great tone, 7.1 surround sound and modular microphone.

A rollercoaster of emotions. PC fans had to wait almost 10 years for this release of The Last of Us. The result is a true rollercoaster - from an emotional as well as a technical standpoint. We put the PC game through our benchmark tests.

4x M.2 SSDs and 4x fans! Dell is reviving its 18-inch Alienware laptop with almost every feature we can think of under the sun: 4x M.2 SSDs, 480 Hz refresh rate, 175 W GPU, liquid metal cooling, vapor chamber cooling, Advanced Optimus, and even optional CherryMX mechanical keys. At almost 9 pounds, however, the Alienware m18 R1 is one of the heaviest laptops in recent memory.

AMD has the most powerful mobile CPU. AMD's new Zen4 CPUs have finally arrived and the new flagship Ryzen 9 7945HX competes with Intel's Raptor Lake HX models. The performance of the new Zen4 cores (Dragon Range) is very good and the Ryzen 9 is also more efficient than Intel's HX CPUs.

Really fast without brute force! The Ryzen 7000 series isn't very old yet, and AMD already offers improvements, introducing efficient and still powerful processors with the X3D models. With the AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D, we are taking a look at the new gaming flagship in this review. Find out from numerous benchmark tests, whether AMD succeeds in surpassing Intel's Core i9-13900K.
