Review Snippet

The Oppo Find N6 noticeably improves the foldable concept: an almost invisible fold, powerful hardware and long battery life meet minor weaknesses in cooling and camera equipment.

The new HP OmniBook Ultra 14 is available with the Core Ultra X9 but with no X7 option even though the X9 costs more and might offer no performance advantages over the X7.

We compare and contrast all the confusing power profiles available on the latest MSI gaming laptop. You'll want to know the differences between them if you intend to play any games on the system.

A comparison of the MSI Prestige 13 AI+ and Asus ZenBook A14 finds Intel’s Core Ultra 9 386H to be outmatched by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X2 Elite in CPU, graphics and battery tests. Despite differing battery capacities, the cheaper ZenBook A14 delivers stronger overall value.

The Poco X8 Pro Max offers significantly higher peak performance than the X8 Pro, particularly in CPU, GPU, and AI tasks. Under continuous load, however, the advantage is diminished by strong throttling, while the X8 Pro operates more consistently but more slowly. Is the Max actually worth it, then?

The latest MSI Raider is one of the fastest gaming laptops available at the moment for users looking to maximum raw processor performance.

The MSI Prestige 13 AI+ is among the lightest and most compact notebooks in the world. The manufacturer impressively demonstrates that this doesn't mean sacrificing much in terms of 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 service hatch on the bottom panel makes it so much faster and easier for end users to add more storage or RAM without needing to worry about voiding warranties or accidentally breaking components.

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.

The Poco X8 Pro Max positions itself as a high-performance mid-range device with a focus on battery life, display brightness, and gaming performance. Particularly striking are the LED light effects around the camera module, which visually set the device apart from many competitors. An added benefit?

What's the difference between Extreme Performance mode, Apex mode, and Cooler Boost mode? The MSI Center software makes very little effort to educate the user.

The Schenker Connect 15 in our review unit comes equipped with a smartcard reader, LTE, Wi-Fi 7, and 32 GB of RAM. Configurations on bestware start at just under €1,000, but the configurator quickly reveals how an entry-level office laptop can turn into a significantly more expensive machine. RAM and SSD options in particular push the price noticeably higher.

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.

The first 16-inch Raider model nails it when it comes to raw performance and the OLED viewing experience. The overt lack of Advanced Optimus, however, is nevertheless disappointing considering the price.

With the Find X9s Pro, Oppo shows why a compact Android smartphone can also be a compelling choice and a strong alternative to the Apple iPhone 17 for photo enthusiasts. Like the Oppo Find X9 Ultra, the smaller Pro model also features a dual-200-MPix-camera-setup enhanced by Hasselblad tuning

The Poco X8 Pro Max features a modern AMOLED display with 12-bit color depth and a 120 Hz refresh rate. However, behind these specifications, temporal dithering—a color simulation technique—may be at play; for some users, this technique is associated with eye strain, headaches, or rapid fatigue.

While the graphics requirements of modern games continue to increase, the performance of cheaper iGPUs has stagnated for years. The best example of this is Intel's Graphics 2 Xe3, the entry-level model from the brand-new Panther Lake generation.

Intel's Panther Lake mobile generation offers a CPU to suit almost every budget. At the lower end of the range is the Core Ultra 5 322, a six-core chip that we have just put to the test.

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.

The Poco X8 Pro Max relies on a powerful chip and a huge battery, but it falls short in too many areas to be completely convincing.

AMD recently released the Ryzen 5 40, a CPU based on the aging Zen 2 architecture. We find out what this means for performance in 2026 via the HP OmniBook 3.

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?

Its Panther Lake-H CPU is impressive for the size and a huge upgrade over the CPU in the Cubi AI+ 2MG, but the super-small form factor has compromised performance somewhat.

Despite the super-small 0.51 L form factor, the Cubi NUC AI+ 3MG supports up to 128 GB of DDR5 memory across two SODIMM slots compared to half or less on competing mini PCs.

The latest MSI mini PC for businesses, retail, and conference rooms is even smaller, faster, and more inconspicuous than before with better RAM support than most other mini PCs.

In times of rising prices, the PC industry explores various ways to keep prices in check. One of them: Use cheaper components to lessen the blow of the RAM crisis. This is what Lenovo does with the screen of the Lenovo ThinkPad T14 Gen 7.

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.

The Geekom A9 Max is based on the AMD Ryzen AI 9 HX 470 and is aimed at demanding users looking for high performance in a mini PC format. The compact system is currently available directly from Geekom at a discount. The equipment includes 32 GB RAM and a 2 TB SSD.

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.

How good is the Motorola Razr 70 really - and does the stylish foldable design justify the high price? Our summary shows where the foldable is convincing and where buyers have to make compromises.

The Geekom A9 Max impressively demonstrates how much power can now be packed into a compact mini PC. Modern hardware, strong performance and flexible upgradeability make it particularly interesting. However, the memory configuration in particular shows that not every decision is equally convincing.

Swapping out Ryzen Zen 5 for Core Ultra Panther Lake has improved efficiency by significant margins to make the the Blade 16 more portable than ever.

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.

With the Motorola Razr 70 (Razr 2026), you have to make compromises when it comes to the camera. The quality is often sufficient for everyday use and social media, but demanding photographers should take a closer look. Let us show you what we found out.

European ThinkPad users have long been complaining about the keys to the left of the Enter key being shrunk down. With the new ThinkPad T14 Gen 7, Lenovo changed their keyboard layout, which means that two of the four shrunken keys finally have the standard size now.

The newest Blade 16 drops Zen 5 in favor of Panther Lake. The end result is an improved machine even if raw CPU performance is slower this time around.

Also tested with CashyOS | We recently reviewed the Lenovo ThinkPad T14 Gen 7. As always, we tested it with Windows, but for this device, we also decided to do a quick compatibility test with Linux.

The Motorola Razr 70 is a pretty phone, but the manufacturer has once again failed in one area: guaranteed security updates. We explain why Motorola's software support once again raises questions despite strong hardware.

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.

How does the Motorola Moto G87 perform in terms of speakers and display? Our review shows: It is loud, but weak in bass and could disturb sensitive users with PWM flickering.

We had both the Lenovo ThinkPad T14 Gen 6 and Lenovo ThinkPad T14 Gen 7 on hand - a good opportunity to compare the new ThinkPad design with the old.

Maximum brightness now reaches 1000 nits instead of just 500 nits according to our own independent tests for a more vibrant HDR experience.

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?

The displays of the Motorola Razr 70 are very bright - and can even beat Samsung and Xiaomi. Our test shows why the foldable impresses with its enormous brightness, precise color display and great suitability for everyday use.

How well does the Motorola Moto G87's 200 MP camera perform in everyday use - and can AI compensate for its weaknesses? We show where the smartphone excels and where it reaches its limits despite optimization.

Can a mid-range smartphone deliver strong images despite the lack of a telephoto lens? The OnePlus Nord 6 proves that it can. We took a closer look at the camera system, but it is not the best choice for every photographer.

TGP and fan noise would drop to 95 W and 45 dB(A), respectively, but the system becomes so much quieter that we don't really mind the 15 percent performance deficit.
