85% 2020 Razer Blade Stealth GTX 1650 Ti Max-Q Laptop Review: Like the 2019 Version, But Done Right

Ultrabook powerhouse. After fumbling with the 2019 options, the 2020 Blade Stealth is what the 2019 version should have been especially in regards to the Ice Lake processor. The graphics potential is insane considering the small 13.3-inch chassis.

78% Chuwi AeroBook Pro Laptop Review: Core m3 is Showing its Age

When "Pro" means "Ordinary". The AeroBook Pro is the 2020 refresh designed to replace the 2019 AeroBook. Despite what the name may suggest, however, both performance and the chassis remain almost exactly the same for no tangible year-over-year advantages.

The Lenovo Flex 5, a powerful 14-inch 2-in-1 featuring a Ryzen 5 4500U for just $600.

Hands-on: The Lenovo Flex 5 promises Ice Lake-shattering performance at an affordable price

Lenovo's Flex 5 is one of the cheapest Renoir-powered laptops available right now. While this laptop features a Ryzen 5 4500U for only $600, 360-degree hinges, and stylus support, are the compromises overwhelming, or is this a real sleeper PC?

Intel NUC 9 Extreme with Core i9 and RTX 2070 in Review

The devil is in the details! Intel's NUC systems have been around for many years and are known for their compact build. The new Intel NUC 9 Extreme even offers enough room for a full-fledged desktop GPU. While this increases the device's size noticeably, it still remains fairly compact. Find out in our extensive review how much performance you can expect.

But not only that - Honor also introduced already another model to the market that strongly resembles the P smart Pro. Find out in our review of the P smart Pro how well the mid-range smartphone with a pop-up camera fares in our test and whether it is still worth buying.

R.I.P. Probook 470. HP's 470 G7 features a Comet Lake quad-core CPU, a fast NVMe SSD, and a matte IPS display. Optical drives are limited to specific G7 SKUs. The operating system of choice is Windows 10 Professional.

87% Acer Swift 3 SF314-42 Laptop Review: Fast, slim and with good battery life - The Ryzen subnotebook is almost completely convincing

Well done, AMD. Acer's new 14-inch laptop has AMD's brand-new Ryzen 7 4700U APU on board, which lacks neither CPU nor GPU performance. Good battery life has not been compromised on despite the machine's large computing power, though. The new Swift 3 is well-equipped in other areas too, with Acer including an NVMe SSD, a matte IPS screen, a backlit keyboard and dual-channel RAM.

5G gaming machine. Since the Xiaomi phone offers a wide range of features for about 670 Euros (~$760), the Black Shark 3 Pro is not just interesting for gamers: It comes with a OLED panel with 90 Hz and 1440p, a 270 Hz touch-sampling rate, 65 W fast charging, Wi-Fi 6, stereo speakers, a 64 MP camera, 5G and a Snapdragon 865.

Glossy 3:2 display. After the Acer Swift 3 SF313 was able to make a good impression in its full configuration, the Intel Core i5 model now has to show if it can deliver a similarly good performance. However, it also inherits the small weaknesses we already encountered in the first test. In our review we'll clarify to what extent this has an impact on the overall impression.

Honor Magic Earbuds Review: TWS earbuds with ANC and good sound quality

Honor Magic Earbuds Review: TWS earbuds with ANC and good sound quality

Magical silence. The Magic Earbuds are true wireless earbuds (TWS) that cost less than €100 (~$113; £100). The earbuds surprised us with their good sound reproduction and their active noise cancellation (ANC). Both properties are usually reserved for more expensive earbuds, so Honor has done well in that regard. The Honor Magic Earbuds are not without criticisms, though.

Office laptop HP 15s-fq1440ng in the test: hardware deceives - potential wasted

78% Office laptop HP 15s-fq1440ng in the test: hardware deceives - potential wasted

Wrong priorities. We tested the second HP 15s office laptop. After the 15s-fq1556ng was not really convincing (79%), HP now relies on a stronger processor (Core i7-1065G7) with one of the best internal graphics solutions currently available. So will the pure performance of the office laptop become a selling point, or has HP even worked on other weaknesses? Our test clarifies.

Tea with cream. “Green Tea” and “White Milk” are the two colors that the Realme 6i is available in. And just like the real green tea the color might not please everyone. The combination of price and performance, on the other hand, most likely will. For less than $200 you get a smartphone equipped with 48 MP quad-camera, 128 GB of storage space, a large battery, and fast charging.

85% Lenovo ThinkPad E490 Office Laptop in review: The Radeon GPU is too much for the cooling solution

Still a hot machine. The ThinkPad E490 is available with an optional dedicated GPU. Similar to the predecessor, however, the cooling solution struggles with the additional heat, and even multiple BIOS updates did not change that.

AMD Ryzen 3 3100 and Ryzen 3 3300X with 4 cores and 8 threads in review

Look out, bargain hunters! After the launch of the new Zen2 processors, it was only a matter of time before even the entry-level models would benefit from the advantages of the new CPU architecture. We took a closer look at the two small Ryzen 3 models and were impressed at what AMD had come up with.

85% Apple iPhone SE 2020 Review - Small phone with a fast-beating heart

An upgraded classic. With the second generation of the iPhone SE, Apple has visually recreated the iPhone 8. While this has resulted in a - for current standards - relatively compact smartphone with a few high-end features, the screen-to-body ratio is fairly poor. Meanwhile, the low base price is another plus for the iPhone SE 2.

Apple MacBook Air 2020 Core i5 Review – The best MacBook you can get? – No

88% Apple MacBook Air 2020 Core i5 Review – The best MacBook you can get? – No

Missed opportunity - or on purpose? The new 2020 MacBook Air is better thanks to an improved keyboard as well as more powerful CPUs. Many reviews even say it is the best MacBook you can get right now. If you have a closer look, however, you will still see the big problem with the performance and the cooling solution. Apple definitely missed an opportunity here.

Trumpled to death? In our review, the Huawei P40 Pro presents itself as a great piece of hardware not least due to the fact that it is equipped with the best smartphone camera out there. We expected nothing less. Unfortunately, the ban from Google services makes a clear recommendation difficult. Read on to find out which users should still consider the Huawei phone and what drawbacks need to be taken into account.

Jumper EZbook X3 13.3-inch FHD

68% Jumper EZbook X3 Review: Ancient technology meets wobbly chassis

Some money just isn't worth spending. Naturally, a small amount of money only gets you a small amount of notebook. Jumper's creation, which they are selling for well under $300, cannot shine in any area. The weak workmanship, bad input devices and slow hardware are some of the things we wouldn't wish on anybody.
