Excellent PC port. Well-made and well-optimised games are few and far between these days. And titles that have no glaring flaws at launch are even rarer. Days Gone proved to be an exceptional title in our performance analysis.

The flagship killer in 2021? Hardly any other smartphone currently offers such good technical features as the Redmi K40 Pro: 120 Hz AMOLED panel with 1,300 nits, Snapdragon 888, UFS 3.1 storage and WiFi 6E for well under 500 Euros (~$609). However, the Xiaomi phone has a big catch...

Optimised for gaming. While laptops with an RTX 3080 offer a whole lot of performance, they are often chunky and can get really hot, which is not something that everybody wants. The Acer Nitro 5, on the other hand, is for those who are looking for a low-priced portable gaming laptop.

Nordic Beginner. Nokia's G10 is an entry-level smartphone with a large battery and a monthly update promise for 3 years. We will take a look at whether the inexpensive phone with the Scandinavian design is also convincing in everyday use in our review.
Mediatek Helio G25 | PowerVR GE8320 | 6.50" | 197 g

Compact powerhouse. Lenovo's 14-inch laptop offers a powerful APU, space for two NVMe SSDs, and very good battery runtimes. The RAM (16 GB, dual-channel mode) cannot be expanded.
AMD Ryzen 5 5500U | AMD Radeon RX Vega 7 | 14.00" | 1.4 kg

Tough choice. For the first time, the ZenBook 13 is available with either an Intel or an AMD SoC. We already reviewed the AMD version (89%) that, unfortunately, still has poor availability, and now it's the Intel competitor's turn. Will the review reveal a clear decision in favor of one of the two manufacturers?

Success Model 2.0. Samsung has relaunched its mid-range top model: The Galaxy A72 is even better than the already strong predecessor and has, among other things, the larger battery and better cameras. As the review shows, the Galaxy A72 should also be the standard against which all mid-range rivals have to measure themselves this year.

No NFC, but infrared is included. The list of features of the Redmi Note 10 is not particularly long, but it draws attention with things like an AMOLED display, a 48 MP main camera, and a large battery. Our review will clarify what the device is ultimately capable of in everyday use.
Qualcomm Snapdragon 678 | Qualcomm Adreno 612 | 6.43" | 178.8 g

Modern family. The MSI Modern 15 gets a new lease in life as the Summit B15. Though visually similar, the system now supports Thunderbolt 4 alongside all the performance benefits of Tiger Lake without needing to rely on discrete GeForce MX graphics.
Intel Core i7-1165G7 | Intel Iris Xe Graphics G7 96EUs | 15.60" | 1.5 kg

Powerful lifestyle laptop. The new Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 5 with the Ryzen 5 5500U processor, NVMe SSD storage, a backlit keyboard, and optional stylus input could be the ideal everyday companion. The convertible presents itself in the test as a compact, lightweight, and yet powerful device.
AMD Ryzen 5 5500U | AMD Radeon RX Vega 7 | 14.00" | 1.5 kg

Can Intel actually make a good laptop? Swap the Core H CPU in the Dell XPS 15 for a Core U CPU and you end up with the ADATA XPG Xenia Xe, more or less. Results are quite impressive for a 15.6-inch multimedia laptop powered by nothing more than an ULV CPU.

100 GB for 100 hours of joy. Over the past few years, video game publishers have released a whole slew of remastered versions of classic games. Not that long ago a complete remake of Mafia was released, and now the Mass Effect trilogy is also getting some love. Read this article to find out the system requirements for Mass Effect Legendary Edition.

SoC from 2019. Those who can live without 5G will be able to get the Samsung Galaxy A52 for about 70 Euros (~$85) less, depending on the configuration. While there is still an older SoC, the option to choose between two storage configurations continues to be available. Our test evaluates the capabilities of the more powerful of the two.

Faster than the Xiaomi Mi 11?! The Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite is a thin and light mid-range smartphone with the new Snapdragon 780G. Despite its lower price, it manages to beat the Xiaomi Mi 11 in some areas.
Qualcomm Snapdragon 780G 5G | Qualcomm Adreno 642 | 6.55" | 159 g

Ice Lake office. With the V17-IIL, Lenovo delivers a work device for desk usage. The 17.3-inch laptop scores with low operating noise, a low heat development, and a well-rounded IPS display. The unstable case prohibits mobile usage.
Intel Core i3-1005G1 | Intel UHD Graphics G1 (Ice Lake 32 EU) | 17.30" | 2.2 kg

Premium goes low budget. Equipped with a comparable configuration, the 9305 is 300 Euros (~$362) cheaper than the popular 9310. In return, it has a 16:9 screen that displays colors very well and an additional USB-C port. Is the XPS 9305 the low-budget entry into the XPS world?
Intel Core i5-1135G7 | Intel Iris Xe Graphics G7 80EUs | 13.30" | 1.2 kg

OLED is dimmer than the IPS option. The gen-to-gen updates over 10th gen Ice Lake are massive in terms of graphics performance, but everything else remains essentially unchanged. If you're not doing any gaming or picture editing, then last year's model will be more than enough.
Intel Core i5-1135G7 | Intel Iris Xe Graphics G7 80EUs | 13.30" | 1.2 kg

5G deniers. The realme 8 4G costs just as much as its 5G brother. Does that make sense? Are there better features elsewhere? In the review, we take a look at for whom the inexpensive smartphone is worthwhile.
Mediatek Helio G95 | ARM Mali-G76 MP4 | 6.40" | 177 g

Microsoft lacks innovation. Microsoft's small Surface Laptop 4 gets a new Tiger Lake processor, but that's about it. Is that still enough in 2021 to compete with the rivals including Apple’s M1 MacBooks?
Intel Core i7-1185G7 | Intel Iris Xe Graphics G7 96EUs | 13.50" | 1.3 kg

New horizons. With some delay, but a revolutionary carbon chassis, the Carbon 1 Mk II finally comes to the end user. Some things still feel like a prototype, but at the same time you have the feeling that you are holding a revolution in your hands. Is that enough to convince in everyday use?
Mediatek Helio P90 | PowerVR GM9446 | 6.01" | 125 g

5G for all. It is rare to get a 5G smartphone this cheap: The realme 8 5G costs just 199 Euros. It even comes with a 90 Hz display and a pretty fast SoC. Is the smartphone the new price-performance king?
MediaTek Dimensity 700 | ARM Mali-G57 MP2 | 6.50" | 185 g

Ryzen office. The HP 255 G7 offers a Ryzen 3 APU, 8 GB of RAM, a DVD drive, and a 512 GB NVMe SSD. Windows 10 Pro serves as the operating system. Moreover, the built-in display disappoints in every respect.
AMD Ryzen 3 3200U | AMD Radeon RX Vega 3 | 15.60" | 1.8 kg

Horror game with impressive visuals. RE Village is on the growing list of titles with real-time ray tracing support. However, even without RT effects, the latest instalment in the Resident Evil series looks mighty impressive. Read this article to learn about the system requirements.

WQUXGA-ThinkPad. 16:10, two fans, a bigger battery and a 4K UHD+ screen - Lenovo has made a lot of changes to the new ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 9.

Intel Core i7-1165G7 | Intel Iris Xe Graphics G7 96EUs | 14.00" | 1.4 kg

Basic streaming needs. At just $229 USD, the Beelink system is almost 1/4 the price of the latest Intel NUC with 11th gen Core CPUs. It's obviously slower and with fewer features, but most home users might not even mind.
Intel Celeron J4125 | Intel UHD Graphics 600 | 269 g

Among siblings. We had the Amazfit GTS 2 mini under review almost at the same time as the Amazfit GTS 2e, which allowed for comparisons in many aspects. Apart from several similarities, there are also some differences. However, the question of which of the two is the better one didn't receive a clear answer in the end.

New innards in an old shell. Once again, Lenovo "only" updates its T-series with a new CPU. However, the Lenovo ThinkPad T14 Gen 2 boasts a more promising CPU upgrade. After all, Tiger Lake is a much more extensive update than last-gen CPUs. However, the new ThinkPad laptop is not entirely flawless.
Intel Core i7-1165G7 | NVIDIA GeForce MX450 | 14.00" | 1.5 kg

Flexible. Lenovo’s 2-in-1 Chromebook comes with a Comet Lake-based CPU, an NVMe SSD and a backlit keyboard. The touchscreen can be operated not only with fingers but also with the Lenovo USI Pen, which is sold separately. The Chromebook also supports Power Delivery over USB-C.
Intel Core i5-10210U | Intel UHD Graphics 620 | 13.30" | 1.4 kg

A great device for work! The ZenBook 13 from Asus is an ultra-compact 13-inch laptop with an excellent OLED display. Despite its small size, it doesn't lack performance, since with the AMD Ryzen 7 5800U, a native octa-core SoC runs the slim device. Our detailed review with numerous measurements and benchmarks examines what performance you can really expect and whether the OLED display can fulfill our expectations.

Destop-level gaming performance is certainly what many gamers who have sworn off the clunky tower want. The Mastercase EG200 accommodates full-length desktop graphics cards, supplies them with power and connects them to the laptop via Thunderbolt 3. Besides that, there are interesting extras like an additional hard drive bay, more USB ports or an integrated laptop holder. We check how a dGPU in the case performs against full-fledged desktop PCs.

Poco M3 alternative. Since the price of the Redmi 9T has already dropped considerably compared to its MSRP of 170 Euros (~$204), the smaller sibling of the Redmi Note 9T offers a lot of smartphone for users on a tight budget according to its spec sheet. Moreover, enormous runtimes are possible with the Redmi phone thanks to its huge battery...

Radeon has re-entered the chat. The Radeon RX 6900 XT signals AMD's re-entry into the flagship GPU space since the R9 Fury X's outing in 2015. The RX 6900 XT offers excellent raster performance that puts it firmly within reach of the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 despite some inadequacies in ray tracing and lack of AI-based super sampling. We take the AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT for a test drive and see how well Team Red has progressed with RDNA 2 so far.
AMD Ryzen 9 5950X | AMD Radeon RX 6900 XT

Docking successful. A high-quality mid-range phone with a fast processor, fast storage, and a large battery. This is how you could describe the Moto G100, but that would be leaving out an important aspect: Thanks to the Ready For docking software, the smartphone can also be used as a replacement for a desktop PC.

Cool game, but half-cooked on a technical level. The third person shooter from Square Enix and People Can Fly has had a mixed reception among both critics and players. We have analysed the performance of the PC version.

Business Chromebook. The Spin 713 offers a 3:2 touchscreen, good battery life and USB-C ports with support for Power Delivery. The 800-Euro (~$970) convertible is not one of the cheapest Chromebooks (in the US, the pricing is much better: $529).
Intel Core i5-10210U | Intel UHD Graphics 620 | 13.50" | 1.4 kg

Intel Core i7-1185G7 | Intel Iris Xe Graphics G7 96EUs | 13.40" | 1.4 kg

A lot of performance for a low price. With the MateBook D 16, Huawei offers an interesting and affordable multimedia laptop at an MSRP of 900 Euros (~$1,088).

The last dance. The Band 6 marks the end of the close relationship between the smartwatches and fitness trackers from Honor and its former parent company Huawei. Once again, we explore the subtle differences that have always made Huawei's wearable slightly better than Honor's almost identical one in the past. The latter also loses out in this last comparison review.

Kicking Hades in the butt. Instead of developing a second generation Kaby Lake-G, Intel has simply swapped out AMD for Nvidia to essentially put an end to the short-lived Intel-AMD chipset. The results are worthwhile even if the new NUC is a bit thicker and heavier than before.

The Genesis Thor 400 RGB is a full-size programmable mechanical keyboard that comes with a detachable palm rest. It uses Kailh Red switches and its set of features includes both preset and customizable RGB lighting settings, n-key rollover, configurable macro keys, and more. The backlight/volume knob's placement seems like the only drawback.

X1 Tablet, but better. After years of ThinkPad tablet abstinence, Lenovo returns to the 2-in-1 market with the new Lenovo ThinkPad X12 Detachable Gen 1. The Lenovo X12 Tablet manages to impress us in our test - it turns out to be a worthy competitor to the Microsoft Surface Pro 7.
