Laptop users are familiar with the major performance differences caused by varying TDP limits. The same effect is now emerging in the smartphone market. Our review of the new Sony phone clearly shows how widely performance can fluctuate. The test results highlight that power management will be a decisive factor for the speed of smartphones.

The new Lenovo ThinkPad T14s Gen 7 combines a lighter 14-inch chassis with good business performance. Our review unit is equipped with an AMD Ryzen AI 7 PRO 450 processor, 64 GB RAM as well as a matte IPS touchscreen.

Microsoft only updates the CPU of the Surface Pro OLED with the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon X2 chips. However, you only get the slowest version of the Snapdragon X2 Elite with a comparatively slow GPU, which is not much faster than the Snapdragon X2 Plus.

Microsoft once again only offers ARM versions of its Surface devices for private customers, while business customers have access to much more powerful hardware, 5G modules and additional display options.

The new Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 (2026) combines a compact 14-inch chassis with Intel's Panther Lake CPU and Nvidia's GeForce RTX 5070 Ti. This combination offers better gaming performance with improved battery runtimes.

The ThinkPad T14s is a premium business laptop, which is sitting right between the regular ThinkPad T14 and the business flagship X1 Carbon. The new Gen 7 model is lighter than before, but the overall level of performance did not really change.

MSI's Claw 8 EX AI+ is the first device with Intel's dedicated handheld SoC, which easily beats the competition. The combination of the Arc G3 Extreme CPU and the Arc B390 iGPU reaches a completely new level of performance. Even AMD's current Ryzen Z2 Extreme does not stand a chance in a direct performance comparison.

Computer prices continue to increase and new gaming handhelds are also affected. MSI's new gaming handheld Claw 8 EX AI+ with Intel's new Arc G3 Extreme chip offers very good performance figures, but we are not sure there are sufficient potential buyers considering the high price of $1799.

Intel's new gaming handheld processor Arc G3 Extreme with the Arc B390 iGPU reaches a new performance level and easily beats AMD's counterpart Ryzen Z2 Extreme at 35 Watts.

Asus updated its compact gaming/multimedia laptop ROG Zephyrus G14 for 2026 at some areas including the switch to a new Panther Lake mobile processor from Intel. Thanks to improved efficiency numbers, the battery runtimes are much better than before.

With its great display, long battery life, excellent build quality, thin bezels and stylus support, the Oppo Pad Mini can hold its own against larger tablets in many areas. However, when it comes to speaker quality, the compact size of this iPad Mini alternative becomes a drawback.

In our review, the Oppo Pad Mini shows exactly what a modern mini tablet should look like. With its 144-Hz OLED display, modern design, and impressive battery life, this alternative to the iPad Mini sets new standards. In comparison, the Apple tablet seems outdated, especially in terms of its display, design, and battery life.

The hardware is one thing, but the software is just as important for an enjoyable user experience with a gaming handheld. MSI improved the software of the new Claw 8 EX AI+ significantly and the new quick settings menu in particular is very convincing.

“The compact Android tablet from Oppo outperforms both the iPad Mini and the Xiaomi Pad 8 in almost every respect and even offers a matte OLED display option. From our perspective, it’s difficult to understand why Oppo chose not to include a 5G variant, especially given the tablet’s high‑end hardware and its potential to serve as a full smartphone replacement

Fans of compact and lightweight Android tablets have had to wait a long time for a new model with an OLED screen. Now, with its Pad Mini, Oppo has launched the best tablet of its kind on the market - one that showed virtually no weaknesses in our review.

We just reviewed the updated 2026 Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 and it is an improvement, but also $600 more expensive than the comparable 2025 unit. As long as you can accept the disadvantages like the darker OLED screen or shorter batter life, we recommend you get the old model as long as it is available.

The Asus ROG Zephyrus G14 is the only compact gaming/multimedia laptop, which is available with the powerful Nvidia GeForce RTX 5070 Ti. This is a noticeable advantage over rivals like the Razer Blade 14, which are limited to the RTX 5070.

Lenovo's ThinkPads offer support for Linux out of the box and some models can also be purchased with Linux. We tested the current ThinkPad T16 Gen 5 with Linux and checked the support of functions and features.

After this year's Ultra phones from various manufacturers completed our tests, we can now crown a new leader in our ranking of the best smartphones for photos and videos. However, the successor to the Vivo X300 Pro is not a major surprise in our ranking.

The compact Oppo Find X9s Pro impresses in our review with its premium design and powerful hardware. Despite a strong first impression, test results reveal unexpected weaknesses in the mini flagship smartphone.

With the Connect 15, Schenker is clearly targeting business customers – and loads the classic 15-inch notebook with an unusual amount of hardware. Wi-Fi 7, an LTE option, and SmartCard support sound like modern enterprise-grade specifications. However, the test also reveals the downsides of this feature-heavy machine.

In our review, the Oppo Find X9s Pro masked an efficiency weakness with its huge battery, which is somewhat surprising given the Find X9 Pro’s test results. For an easy‑to‑handle and compact smartphone, the battery performance is in a completely different league compared to the Samsung Galaxy S26.

Apple is known for premium prices, but the current price increases of Windows laptops actually make the MacBook Pro a significantly cheaper option. This is an issue for multimedia laptops like the Lenovo Yoga Pro 7i 15 Aura Edition.

Lenovo's new Yoga Pro 7i 15 Aura Edition is a very good multimedia laptop, but the price of more than $2600 for the model with the GeForce RTX 5060 is steep. Is this the new reality or is the new Yoga simply too expensive?

The Oppo Find X9 Ultra is the perfect companion for vacations and holidays. With its versatile Hasselblad cameras, the flagship phone offers impressive macro performance and excellent zoom capabilities, even for the most distant subjects and smallest details. We also compare photo results with the Vivo X300 Ultra.

If you are looking for the best camera phone in 2026, you will not be able to ignore the two flagship phones from Oppo and Vivo. We take a look at the differences between these two Android smartphones based on our test data - and the differences are surprisingly clear in detail.

The Oppo Find X9 Ultra was the last hope for getting the high heat output of the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 under control. Unfortunately, the new flagship Android phone cannot match the consistent power delivery of the Find X8 Ultra. Our review shows a fundamental dilemma in the smartphone segment.

The Oppo Find X9 Ultra not only offers strong photo quality, but also impresses with 4K120 video and a "Sound Focus" option. We also take a closer look at how well one of the best smartphones of 2026 performs in video recording compared with the Vivo X300 Ultra.

The cameras of the Find X9 Ultra reveal only a few weaknesses in our review. But does the 200-MPix sensor really deliver better photos than the 1-inch sensor of its predecessor? Or is the Find X8 Ultra the better alternative for the money? In this comparison, we take a closer look at the main cameras.

After we already reviewed the new Lenovo ThinkPad T14 Gen 7 with Panther Lake, we are now also testing the new larger 16-inch model ThinkPad T16 Gen 5 powered by an AMD processor. What is our first impression of the large business laptop?

Thanks to the integrated "Linux Lab" environment, the Honor MagicPad 4 allows seamless switching between Android and Linux without rebooting. This feature of the OLED tablet could be a reason to buy, especially for developers and fans of Linux.

The new Honor MagicPad 4 is currently one of the best tablets on the market. Thanks to the large 12.3-inch OLED screen, the Android tablet with its desktop mode is also ideal as a laptop replacement. Following our review, we now take a closer look at the keyboard cover as an accessory.

If you’re looking for a new Android tablet with an OLED display and plenty of power, you get far better value for money with the MagicPad 4 compared to Apple’s iPads. That makes the Honor tablet a strong alternative to the iPad Air 13 and even to the iPad Pro 13.

We were blown away by the Honor MagicPad 4’s audio quality during our review. Beside sounding significantly more balanced than the Apple iPad Air 13, the 12.3-inch mid-range tablet even edged out the iPad Pro 13 in speaker performance. That said, this impressive audio quality doesn’t come as a surprise.

Nvidia recently launched a new version of the GeForce RTX 5070 with 12 GB VRAM. Lenovo's Yoga Pro 7i 15 G11 is one of the first multimedia notebooks, which is available with the new GPU.

The Vivo X300 Ultra not only impresses with its camera package and powerful Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, but also with its decent accessories. In our review, we also take a look at what accessories are included with the high-end Android smartphone.
