Choosing a case for your new smartphone is an important step: you don’t want to get it wrong and realise you need a new one two weeks later. We looked at the available cases for the Galaxy Note 8 and select our favourite so you can find the one that fits you best. If you’re looking for more than just cases, you might want to check out our round-up of Galaxy Note 8 accessories....

There’s still a while to wait of course, as Cyber Monday doesn’t start until 27 November 2023, following just a few days after Black Friday on 24 November. Deals start even earlier, often running throughout November, and there’s a chance the John Lewis sale will continue past Cyber Monday and through the rest of what retailers now call ‘Cyber Week’. John Lewis may have dropped its ‘Never Knowingly Undersold’ promise – and with it the commitment to price-matching competitors – but it still always offers some top discounts for Cyber Monday, and we’re here to make sure the deals it offers are genuine savings....

Boasting a design that echoes the Samsung Galaxy S8 and S9, the 8 Sirocco has a curved glass screen and an 18:9 display, along with wireless charging, waterproofing, and a dual lens camera. You can get the full specs at our Nokia 8 Sirocco hub, or check out our hands-on review from MWC 2018 to find out what we thought about the phone when we got the chance to try it out ourselves....

Each year we give out Top Picks awards to noteworthy devices across any category and from any manufacture. In no particular order, here’s what caught our eye at CES 2018. Razer Project Linda Lapdocks are stupid and boring. Well that used to be the case but Razer has turned things around with Project Linda, an amazingly specced dummy laptop that’s powered by the firm’s new smartphone. It slots in to become a trackpad and second screen while a cut-out means you can still use the fingerprint scanner....

The likes of God of War and Spider-Man aren’t playable anywhere else, making the PS4 a must-own if you want to give them a go. And of course Sony’s big black box has the full set of Call of Duty, FIFA, Assassin’s Creed, and more. With the PS5 nearly upon us, now’s the perfect time to catch up on the best games of this generation that you might have missed – though don’t worry, quite a few of the biggest next-gen games will still come to the PS4 for the next year or so, meaning there’s still more good stuff on the way....

A TV is one of the most popular gadgets for bargain hunters to bag when Black Friday comes around. Black Friday takes place on 24 November 2023 (the day after Thanksgiving) and while waiting for the big day itself might get you the best deal, it’s not guaranteed. This is because these days Black Friday sales typically take up the whole of November and in 2022 we even saw TVs on offer at the end of October branded as Black Friday deals....

Now, after the company tried to change tact with the square BlackBerry Passport and the high-end Priv, it has released the BlackBerry DTEK50. It’s a mid-range (in terms of specs and price) Android handset with no physical keyboard and a penchant for security. Surely this is something the company should have done several years ago? Here’s our BlackBerry DTEK50 review. BlackBerry DTEK50 review: Price and where to buy The BlackBerry DTEK50 is available to order now direct from BlackBerry for £275....

BlackBerry Priv review: what it is, why it matters The BlackBerry Priv is a BlackBerry phone that runs the Android OS. As such it is both a sign of BlackBerry’s desperation to find a market, but also another interesting smartphone from the company formally known as RIM. BlackBerry may be struggling for relevance as a phone maker in the post-iPhone world, but since it relaunched with the Z10 it has been continually making high quality and useful devices....

More than a year on, Bose has introduced the second-generation Bose QC35 II headphones, offering a handful of changes including built-in Google Assistant. Is the introduction of Google Assistant enough to win over prospective buyers? We’ve spent some time with the Bose QC35 II headphones, and here’s what we think. Bose QC35 II: UK pricing and availability Priced at £329.95, the Bose QC35 II headphones aren’t the cheapest headphones we’ve ever reviewed, and it appears as if Bose has stopped selling the first-gen QC35s altogether rather than offering a price drop....

Esa decisión tenía por objetivo reducir el tamaño de los archivos, así como para poder tener más de una foto en un archivo (en una ráfaga, por ejemplo), entre otros objetivos. Android 9 (Pie) añadió compatibilidad con este formato altamente eficiente y merece la pena utilizarlo en tu móvil si todavía no lo hace. El gran problema es que puede que tu portátil o PC no pueda abrir esos archivos HEIC cuando los importes desde tu móvil....

Call of Duty gameplay rumours: What will the next Call of Duty game involve? Will it be Ghosts 2 or Modern Warfare 4? At an earnings report in February 2016, Activision announced that a new Call of Duty game is in development for this year and that Infinity Ward will be behind the wheel. Ubisoft employs a three-year rotation between its development studios with the Call of Duty franchise, which helps to keep things fresh and interesting....

Instagram is trying everything it can to compete with its rivals, as it attempts to become a more rounded platform. The niche that started its popularity and drew people to the platform initially seems to be disappearing in favour of appealing to a wider audience – because let’s face it, no one really wants 6 different social media accounts when one that does everything would be ideal. Check out our complete Instagram guide if you’re having any trouble!...

Unlike the other PCs in this round-up, the 24in Chillblast Volante AIO has been built into an off-the shelf all-in-one housing. This shows in its somewhat boxy design, which can’t quite match the style and ergonomics of all-in-ones designed by the manufacturer. However it’s considerably better-looking than early ‘DIY’ systems and, provided you look at it face-on, you probably won’t see the joints. You’ll get a surprise if you try to pick it up, though, as it weighs more than 5kg more than a 27in iMac....

We’ve got loads of ideas in our ultimate Christmas gift guide, but here we’re sharing some of our favourite present ideas that take inspiration from computers and gadgets but aren’t tech. We’ve found jewellery made from computer parts, floppy disk coasters, and even a chopping board that looks like a motherboard. Circuit Board Necklace Take this amazing Geeky Heart Necklace, for example. Etsy seller HarResols has more than 250 items made from recycled computer parts such as circuit boards and hard drives, inclucing this nerdy necklace that we love....

This all makes it highly convenient, not least because – if you sign in – all your stuff is synced automatically between your devices. Passwords, bookmarks, open tabs and more. And until recently, it also led the pack for speed. It’s one of the best web browsers around. Microsoft has shouted for a long while that its own browsers are more efficient and won’t run down your battery as fast but it has done little to improve market share: the newer Edge (built into Windows 10) doesn’t even make the top six and Internet Explorer has a measly 3....

Chuwi Hi10 Pro review: Price and UK availability You won’t find a Windows 10 tablet much cheaper than this, with the Chuwi Hi10 Pro currently costing £128.53 at GearBest. The optional keyboard dock (a recommended purchase) is an extra £29.31, also from GearBest, while the HiPen H2 stylus can be bought from Geekbuying for £11.16. That’s a total price of £169, but note that you could be asked to pay import duty upon its arrival to the UK that would take the total price closer to £200....

Unfortunately, the SurBook is far from a full-on Surface Pro replacement. If you want the 2-in-1 look on a Windows 10 device but can’t afford Microsoft’s £800+ options, then it is worth considering. But it is clunky, underpowered Windows tablet and gives a frustrating user experience. Read on to see if the saving is worth the compromise. Price and availability At the time of writing, the Chuwi SurBook is £322....

D-Link’s latest Powerline adapter starter kits are the Powerline AV 500 HD Mini Starter Kit (DHP-509AV) and Powerline AV2 1000 HD Gigabit Starter Kit (DHP-601AV). See Best Powerline adapters for our recommendations. Powerline works by using your home’s power cables to transfer data and Internet signals around the house. You just plug one into a power socket near your modem/router, and then connect it using the supplied Ethernet cable. Then the second Powerline adapter goes into the room where you want the fast connection (most likely your living room or a home office); plug it into a power socket and connect your other devices in using the other Ethernet cable....

Unlike most slim hybrids, it also has enterprise-grade security, an Intel vPro CPU and a satisfying deep-action keyboard. Other than the hefty price the only issue is the display’s colour depth. While it looks fine, colour saturation is rather low give the Dell Latitude 5289’s high price. Price and availability The Dell Latitude 5289 is available in five core flavours. Starting with the most affordable, the model with a Core i3 CPU, 4GB RAM and a 128GB SSD costs £1107 (£1328 inc VAT)....
