We have not yet received them for review, and therefore have not been able to benchmark the laptops to verify each manufacturer’s claims. Surface Book i7 vs MacBook Pro: Design Clearly there is one major difference between the two. The MacBook Pro is a traditional laptop, while the Surface Book’s touchscreen is detachable so it can be used as a tablet....

Synology has an wide range of products in its portfolio of network-attached storage appliances. Given a budget of several thousands pounds, you can now find a Synology RackStations with 10 disk bays and a server-class processor. (Read all NAS drive reviews.) The greater number of businesses and enthusiasts may be content with the company’s popular two- to eight-bay desktop devices. But now the entry fee for Synology membership has come down from its previous start point of around £140 for the single-bay DS114 enclosure, to just £78 for the new DS115j....

Telltale Batman UK release date: When is Telltale Batman coming out? On 15 July, Telltale revealed that Batman: The Telltale Series would be coming out in August, and will be available for Xbox One, Xbox 360, PS3, PS4, PC, Mac and mobile devices. That date turned out to be 2 August, but only refered to the first episode. Now there’s word of a second episode, “Children of Arkham” on 20 September....

The device comes with a gorgeous 6.1in Infinity-O Dynamic AMOLED display, while the S10 Plus ( reviewed here) comes with a larger 6.3in screen. Both feature 93% screen-to-body ratio which means it’s a lot of glass to protect. The S10 and S10 Plus were the first phones to introduce an ultrasonic, in-display fingerprint scanner to the mass market. While it’s an innovative feat, it does creates a problem where screen protectors are concerned....

Although at their core, they all do the same job: encrypting your internet connection and giving you a new IP address to hide your real one, this doesn’t mean they’re all the same. There are many differences between them, from speed and cost to the more nuanced aspects such as the level of privacy and security they offer. What that means is that the “best” can be different for different people....

The latter has been rumoured for quite some time, with various online sources claiming that Apple’s iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max will feature a 120Hz display, double the 60Hz of the current iPhone range. It’d bring the Pro iPhone branding in-line with the iPad Pro range, which has offered a 120Hz display for quite some time now. It makes sense for Apple to include a high refresh rate display in its upcoming iPhone range, as it seems to be a staple among flagship Android smartphones in 2020, featured on the likes of the OnePlus 8 Pro and Samsung Galaxy S20, and even the budget-focused £219 Realme 6 features a 90Hz display....

Announced almost precisely one year on from the original TicWatch Pro, this second-generation smartwatch looks to offer a markedly similar proposition, with regards to both features and design. Aside from mobile connectivity, Mobvoi has granted this 2019 model a little extra memory and a reworked finish, but that appears to be the extent of the update. If you’re not familiar with the original TicWatch Pro, it’s served as the company’s most advanced wearable to date, offering one of its most feature-rich designs and the only watch on the market with a secondary FSTN display (more on that in a bit)....

TomTom Multi-Sport Cardio sport watch review: what it is The TomTom Multi-Sport Cardio is a watch with a built-in heart-rate monitor. This sits neatly in the base of the watch in order to accurately measure your heart rate from your wrist, meaning you don’t need one of those weird chest-strap things. A built-in GPS receiver provides real-time speed and distance information, so you can track distance, time, pace, speed and calories burnt as you run, cycle, walk or even swim....

Toshiba Q300 480GB (2016) review: Price, competition and price per GB The Q300 (2016) is available in 120-, 240-, 480- and 960GB capacities. We received the 480GB model which in our Windows 10 test rig provides 446GB of available storage space. Read next: How to build a PC. Unlike some of its competitors, such as Kingston and Samsung, the Toshiba comes with only three year warranty, as opposed to the five-year plus warranties....

At a little over £400 we can expect better than lowest-budget specification, and the Toshiba Satellite L50D-C-12X did demonstrate a few tricks unavailable to laptops at half the price. The A10-8700P processor continues AMD’s reputation for hiding its clock speed (baseline 1.8 GHz, and overclock capable to 3.2 GHz in a turbo mode). Integrated into the same one-chip SoC (or accelerated processing unit, APU in AMD-speak) is a Radeon R6 graphics processor, with potential for action games at modest resolutions....

Toshiba Satellite Radius 11 review: Build and design In its gold-effect lacquered finish, the L10W looks quite smart, featuring a painted coarse-textile effect on its smooth lid back and genuine textured plastic underside. Powering the compact laptop is an Intel Celeron N2840 processor, a budget dual-core design designed for low-end consumer laptops. This is clocked at 2.19 GHz and has a little scope to run faster, to 2.58 GHz, using a what Intel calls Burst Technology, believed to be a more basic version of its Turbo Boost Technology....

Powerline is a simple technology that uses the power cables in your home to act like networking cables—so taking much less time to shuttle data around your building. It’s super easy to set up. You just plug one base adapter into the power socket near your modem/router, and then connect those two devices together with a supplied Ethernet cable. Then you plug the second adapter (and third and fourth if you need them) into the socket near your TV, Sky box, Tivo, games console, laptop, desktop PC and so on....

All three phones are identical, though the hardware specification has changed somewhat. The main difference between the UMI Z and UMIDIGI Z Pro was the latter’s 2x 13Mp Sony IMX 258 dual-camera, which has been swapped out in the Z1 for a 13Mp and 5Mp setup. Its third 13Mp selfie camera has also been swapped for a 5Mp version, but despite the Z1’s seemingly inferior specification the good news is photographic quality appears to have improved....

Vodafone Smart Ultra 7 review: Pricing and availability So before we go any further, just how expensive is the Vodafone Smart Ultra 7? The Smart Ultra 7 was designed to be a budget smartphone that allows more people to use 4G (notable Vodafone’s 4G network, but you could probably get it unlocked) and as such, has a price tag to match. The Vodafone Smart Ultra 7 will set consumers back £135 on Pay as you Go, while Vodafone is also offering it on contract – £19 PCM will get you the smartphone along with 500 minutes, unlimited texts and 500MB of data....

With the most recent major update and the introduction of cooperative Raid Battles, Niantic has granted that request. The ‘moveset’ your Pokémon have has become much more important with the advent of Raids, so it’s great that you can now ‘teach’ your ‘mons new moves. As well as new berries, Niantic introduced Technical Machine (TM). TMs let you change either the fast move or the charged move of one of your Pokémon....

However, Built It is a better way to gauge interested in the different concepts before putting them into production. It launched on 17 February in the US. Only projects you back that hit the goal will result in you being charged, and that happens when the device ships. Any Build It concept that doesn’t hit the goal simply doesn’t get made. The progress bar for each product is an easy way to see the percentage progress towards the goal....

The streaming platform hosts a lot of NBC classics such as SNL, Cheers and The Real Housewives, as well as being home to new exclusive originals like the 30 Rock reunion special, revivals of Punky Brewster and Battlestar Galactica and more.
