84% Vivo V23 5G review - Selfie smartphone with extravagant color

Not just for beauties. The Vivo V23 5G primarily wants to convince with its dual front-facing camera, which has a strong 50 MP sensor. However, the triple camera on the back is also promising. In addition, there is a bright AMOLED, modern communication modules, and fast charging.

An inspiring Inspiron. 16:10 aspect ratio displays were previously only available on higher-end laptops, but they have finally made their way to more affordable models like the Inspiron 14 7420 convertible. The bigger display pairs well with Intel's latest 12th gen CPU offerings for an attractive buy.

100+ W desktop CPU on a laptop. Why use a 12th gen mobile H-series CPU when you can just use a full-fledged K-series desktop CPU instead? Though performance is impressive for a laptop, users should still expect a deficit when compared to a "proper" desktop setup.

80% MSI Katana GF66 12UGS laptop review: The update to Alder Lake brings significantly more performance

Powerful hardware at an affordable price. This is exactly what the Katana GF66 offers. After the upgrade to Alder Lake, the Katana gaming laptops are even more powerful. However, to end up at a sales price of around 2000 Euros ($2142), MSI cuts some corners in many areas. With this, the gaming laptop looks better on paper than some of our measurements reveal.

It is also a problem for customers, because a Core i5 can be more powerful than a Core i7 and there can be massive performance differences in general.

90% Razer Blade 17 laptop review: RTX 3070 Ti or RTX 3080 Ti - Which is the superior Blade?

Blade is Blade? The Razer Blade 17 with the RTX 3070 Ti is a full 800 Euros (~$842) cheaper than with the RTX 3080 Ti. With the thin case of the Blade, can you really notice a performance difference in favor of the more expensive GPU? We'll get to the bottom of this in our review.

Favorable entry with Android 12. The Moto G22 primarily scores with its price. NFC, a 50 MP camera, and a 90 Hz panel are on board for less than 170 Euros (~$180). Motorola also focuses on the latest Android with improved data protection features in its entry-level phone. Does the calculation work out despite some shortcomings?

HP Omen 16 Gaming Laptop Review: Less is More

86% HP Omen 16 Gaming Laptop Review: Less is More

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.

Beelink SER4 mini PC review: AMD Zen 2 is still giving Intel NUC a run for its money

Beelink SER4 mini PC review: AMD Zen 2 is still giving Intel NUC a run for its money

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.

80% Lenovo V15 Gen 2 AMD review: Hexa-core machine with a caveat

Display from the dark ages. Lenovo now equips the V15 G2 with a hexa-core processor from AMD but still keeps the Full HD resolution in its TN display with weak viewing angles. Our test will show whether the affordable entry-level device is still good for doing some regular work.

88% Oppo Find X5 Smartphone Review: Budget Smartphone with a Four Digit Price Tag

Still premium. The Find X5 inherits most of its features from Oppo's flagship Find X5 Pro smartphone, but costs considerably less. While you’ll have to invest around 1000 Euros, you’ll be rewarded with a very strong high-end bundle overall.

MSI Stealth GS77 laptop review: A good Razer Blade 17 alternative?

87% MSI Stealth GS77 laptop review: A good Razer Blade 17 alternative?

Very different from the GS76. The GS series has gotten yet another makeover with both brand new internals and a brand new chassis design over last year's GS76. Big changes normally come with significant improvements and QoL updates along the way, but the GS77 is a bit of a mixed bag.

Dell Inspiron 15 3505 in review: Quiet, affordable office laptop

76% Dell Inspiron 15 3505 in review: Quiet, affordable office laptop

Home office. The Inspiron 15 3505 shines with low noise levels, two drive slots, and a moderate price. The installed Ryzen 5 APU does not reach its full performance potential. The battery life is poor.
