More high-end. Samsung's Galaxy S21+ flagship smartphone offers all the equipment characteristics that also distinguish the excellent Galaxy S21. But the plus sign in the product label also means that you can expect even more here. And indeed, the Galaxy S21+ delivers: for an additional 200 Euros (~$242), you get a significantly larger display and a noticeably larger battery, among other things.

Promising. The Huawei FreeBuds Studio are the first over-ear headphones from the Chinese company. They offer premium sound with High-Res Audio, excellent noise cancellation, and state-of-the-art communication technology. However, some promises cannot always be kept in the test.
Update: Info on iOS/iPadOS added.

Purple violet. Patterned displays, colorful cases, and slim watchbands: The Garmin Lily should be attractive to all those for whom the typical smartwatches are too large and dark. However, apparently GPS and NFC did not fit into the delicate case anymore. On the other hand, the software scores with the strengths that are typical for Garmin.

Wolf in sheep's clothing. The Asus Flow X13 is an ultra-compact 13-inch convertible with a high-resolution display. With the optional display dock, equipped with an Nvidia Geforce RTX 3080 GPU, the Flow X13, together with the AMD Ryzen 9 5980H CPU integrated into the laptop, would theoretically even make desktop computers look old. Due to the lack of availability, we will only review the Flow X13 without the eGPU for now.

For the rest of us. The NVIDIA RTX 3060 Ti continues Ampere's tradition of distilling previous generation top-end performance at lower price points. The RTX 3060 Ti actually succeeds the RTX 2060 Super but aims to be the go-to card for 1440p Ultra gaming by essentially offering RTX 2080 Super performance for US$400. We take the NVIDIA RTX 3060 Ti Founders Edition for a spin to see if that's really the case.
