Review Snippet

The ThinkPad X-series has a ling tradition as compact business companions. Lenovo wants to improve the mobility even further with the new ThinkPad X13 G6, but this affects the quality and both the keyboard as well as the display hinges are disappointing.

The Oppo Find X9 is positioned as a relatively affordable flagship with a Hasselblad camera system, aiming to offer high-end photography for under $1000. Our review reveals how well image quality, zoom performance and AI post-processing work together in everyday use.

Lenovo's ThinkPad E14 Gen 7 is an affordable and compact office laptop, which is available with Intel as well as AMD processors. But while the manufacturer uses the latest Intel chips, AMD customers only get outdated Zen 4 models.

The Lenovo ThinkPad P14s Gen 6 looks like most other newer ThinkPad laptops, but there is something hidden beneath the surface that makes this 14.5-inch workstation laptop different from the other business laptops in Lenovo's lineup.

With the AI X1, Minisforum is launching a new mini PC that combines modern technology in a compact, well-designed housing. At its heart is the AMD Ryzen 7 255, complemented by the latest connection standards and flexible expansion options as well as integrated speakers. Our review clarifies how well this overall package works in everyday use and what strengths the mini PC shows in practical use.

The Intel CPU can run up to 50 percent faster albeit with a 50 percent increase in power consumption and no integrated NPU.

The OnePlus 15 promises significantly longer battery life than its predecessor thanks to its 7,300 mAh battery,but does it live up to this promise in everyday use? Our detailed battery life test reveals how the smartphone actually performs in various usage scenarios.

The Oppo Find X9 impresses with its high-quality build and powerful Hasselblad camera system. However, it harbors significant weaknesses in the cooling of its high-performance top-of-the-line SoC. In this article, we explain how the massive loss of performance under load actually manifests itself in benchmarks and everyday use.

Weak, weaker, Nvidia RTX Pro 500 Blackwell Generation? This GPU may be the runt of the litter, but it still provides a valuable boost over the integrated GPU solutions from AMD and Intel. We tested it for the first time in the Lenovo ThinkPad P14s Gen 6.

The microphones are sensitive enough for voice controls in a medium-sized living room, but the speakers are too weak to fill that same space.

The skyrocketing demand for SSD and RAM has hit mini PC makers hard. The latest GTI15 Ultra with Arrow Lake-H in particular is now shipping for well over $1000 USD when configured with 64 GB of RAM and 1 TB SSD.

Lenovo's large ThinkPad T16 Gen 4 AMD is a good business laptop, but it shares the mainboard with the smaller ThinkPad T14 and therefore wastes internal space. In addition to the cooling solution, this also affects the maintenance options.

Our review of the Xiaomi 15T reveals several reasons that speak in favor of a purchase. Anyone looking for an affordable Android phone with excellent value for money will find the Xiaomi smartphone to be the perfect choice.

In our review, the RedMagic 11 Pro stands out thanks not only to its high performance, but also to numerous other features such as a large battery and fast charging. However, a few compromises have to be made in return.

The OnePlus 15's camera system has suffered some setbacks this year: no more Hasselblad branding and less light-sensitive lenses. Can the new Lumo engine compensate for these shortcomings?

Anyone looking for a stylish 16-inch office notebook should consider the Lenovo IdeaPad Slim 5 16. We took a detailed look at the attractive all-rounder.

Does the Acer Swift Go 16 AI meet its AI power claims? We have evaluated local language models and image generators, revealing both its limitations and its strengths. Thanks to Amuse, LM Studio and FastFlowLM, the AMD Ryzen 7 in this laptop can deliver good AI performance.

Lenovo offers its compact office laptop ThinkPad E14 Gen 7 both with Intel Arrow Lake as well as Lunar Lake processors. You might think that the Lunar Lake chip is a better fit for the compact device, but our review shows that this is only partly correct.

In our previous articles on the A18, we mainly highlighted the slim, quiet, and efficient 18-inch gaming laptop, which could also appeal to creators. But the reality also includes some annoying teething issues we observed during testing.

Despite the TUF label—Asus’ usual branding for the budget tier of its gaming laptops—the TUF Gaming A18 comes with several traits that seem aimed at creative users as well. Does it actually work?

The HP offers per-key RGB lighting, dedicated mouse buttons, and more storage options than the Dell. On the other hand, performance-hunters and AI modelers may prefer the Dell for its CAMM2 benefits.

If you are looking at features, the ThinkPad T16 Gen 4 AMD offers pretty much everything you could want. This includes business specific things like a SmartCard reader, but also the support for a 5G WWAN module, modern Wi-Fi 7 connections as well as Thunderbolt 4.

Most gaming laptops offer three or four automatic performance presets—usually something like “Silent,” “Balanced,” “Performance,” and “Turbo” or “Cooler Boost.” Asus simply removed the Balanced mode… or did they just rename it? The A18’s “Performance” mode behaves very differently from what we’re used to seeing in competing laptops.

The Tecno Slim 5G impressed in our review as a light and slim smartphone with a very good display. As the price suggests, this is not a high-end product. This also has its disadvantages.

With the Edge AI, Sapphire returns to the world of mini PCs and relies on Ryzen AI 9 HX 370, a small, well-designed case, and a smart magnetic lid. Our test shows how well this works and what surprises the device delivers in everyday use.

Compared to Asus’ pricier ROG Strix G18, the TUF label usually signals the company’s budget-friendly gaming line. And while the A18 with an RTX 5060 is available for a reasonable €1,599, our review unit with an RTX 5070 comes in only €100 cheaper than the G18. So what exactly justifies that higher price?

Like all Huawei tablets, the MatePad 12 X (2025) comes without pre-installed Google services and associated apps. However, this usually proves to be no problem in everyday use, and that's not because of the well-stocked AppGallery.

The new ThinkPad T16 Gen 4 AMD left a good overall impression in our review. The situation is a bit mixed for the display, because the 1080p screen does not consume a lot of power, but it is only a 60 Hz screen and there is no option for a 120 Hz panel.

If you're looking for an affordable Android phone that offers great value for money, the Xiaomi 15T is the right choice. But how good is the video quality of this mid-range phone with OIS? We put the Xiaomi smartphone through its paces.

On paper, the Asus TUF Gaming A18 enters the ring as a powerful 18-inch gaming laptop with an RTX 5070 and a Ryzen 7 260. But our testing shows: its real speed depends heavily on the mode selected in Armoury Crate — and the gap between these modes is much larger than you’d expect.

Dell's largest mobile workstation focuses on not just the fastest CPUs and GPUs available, but also new RAM options beyond SODIMM for both improved performance and higher capacities than normal.

Huawei includes a full-featured keyboard cover with the MatePad 12 X (2025) creative tablet. But it's the optional stylus that really rounds off the user experience.

The Core Ultra 9 285HX can be around 100 C when running demanding loads which negatively impacts Turbo Boost performance.

According to EU regulations, every smartphone is supposed to receive software updates for many years. That makes sense so users don't have to throw away a working device. But Motorola is trying to get around this with some legal fine print.

The Lenovo ThinkPad T14 is a staple in the business world. It is a device with many strengths. Unfortunately, its screen is not really among them. The latest ThinkPad T14 Gen 6 certainly has a workable display, but there are still key areas that can be improved.

The original launch price of almost $1000 was ridiculous considering the relatively low-end specifications of the HP 17t, but the new sale price is now much more palatable for undemanding users who just want a large 17.3-inch 1080p screen.

Once again, the performance of the Core Ultra 7 255U can vary so widely that it can actually run slower than the Core Ultra 7 155U in some cases.

The ThinkPad T14 series is among the most well known and liked business laptop series. It is not a premium series, but it delivers a well-rounded combination of quality and features. With the lastest Intel Lunar Lake CPU, it is more efficient than ever, setting a new battery life record for the T14 series.

The new Asus ROG NUC 15 is shaking up the mini PC market and immediately arouses curiosity. Compact housing, modern hardware, and a surprising amount of gaming power make it particularly exciting. Anyone looking for space-saving, high-end performance will quickly find what they are looking for here. The mini PC impressively demonstrates how much power can be packed into minimal space today.

High power limits are a well-known issue for Intel processors. The Core Ultra 9 285H in Lenovo’s compact Yoga Pro 7 14 can consume up to 115W, which creates some problems and it even slightly affects the performance.

How does the rather flexible chassis of the Gram 17 fare in everyday use? Here's our long-term conclusion after two years, a fall down the stairs and an inexpensive display repair.

In our review, the Find X9 Pro scores top marks in some cases. We take a closer look at the contents of what is included with the Oppo flagship smartphone upon purchase. The matching Super VOOC power adapter isn't always included with the Oppo phone.

Most smartphones can now take decent photos when it is dark. But you need some special technology to take a picture without any ambient light. The Oukitel WP60 comes with a night vision camera that utilizes infrared light and can shoot photos even in complete darkness. But how well does that work?

The rise of electric cars is also driving the development of battery efficiency. This is also particularly evident in smartphones, which are now lasting longer while barely gaining weight. We recently tested a smartphone with a huge screen and new battery technology. What's our verdict?

Gaming laptops aren't usually known for good battery life. The Acer Nitro V 16 AI proves that it doesn't have to be this way, offering a solid package suitable for remote office workers and mid-range gaming.

Maximum fan noise doesn't automatically mean maximum performance. The Stealth 18 HX performs about the same between its Turbo and non-Turbo modes.

The Oppo Find X9 Pro relies on the in-house LUMO engine for image processing, which is supported by the MediaTek Dimensity 9500. This synergy is supposed to take mobile photography to a new level. We took a closer look at the Oppo phone and its camera features in our recent review.

Lenovo's multimedia laptop Yoga Pro 7 14 is available with Intel as well as AMD processors. If you get an Intel SKU, you will also get a slightly better OLED display as well as a card reader. But is it also the better overall package?

Anyone looking for long battery life, extensive features and a modern design in a flagship smartphone might find the Find X9 Pro to be the perfect companion. However, our review of the Oppo device also reveals unexpected weaknesses in the Mediatek chipset.

Although they target the same thin-and-light 18-inch gaming category, the MSI Stealth 18 and Razer Blade 18 are quite different in many noteworthy respects that potential buyers should definitely be aware of.
