Tech Advisor Top Picks Award Winners At Ifa 2016

This year the Tech Advisor team decided to do things a little differently. We’ve still grabbed some hands-on time with the products you want to read about, including the brand-new Sony Xperia XZ, Samsung Gear S3 Frontier, Moto Z Play, Qualcomm VR and Acer Swift 7, but this year we set aside some time to talk to PRs and to really appreciate the show as a whole and the products on display....

The Best Movies On Now In December 2022

The Cinema membership offers just what it sounds like – the best movies Sky Cinema has to offer – and we’ve done our best to pick our favourites here. In case you didn’t know, the Now Cinema membership costs £9.99 per month, and it’s worth pointing out that it’s separate from the TV membership, so you only get access to the films, which means it is pretty expensive if you want access to both....

The Handmaid S Tale C Mo Ver El Cuento De La Criada Temporada 5

Sí, como lo oyes. Ya puedes saber cómo continúa la historia de Gilead, el Estados Unidos distópico en el que viven sus protagonistas: las criadas fértiles obligadas a tener hijos, y los comandantes y sus familias. Aunque la primera temporada estuvo basada en la novela homónima de Margaret Atwood, la segunda, la tercera y la cuarta tuvieron que tomarse bastantes licencias. Esto mismo ocurrirá con la quinta, pues la serie va más allá de lo explicado en el libro....

Toshiba Canvio Connect Ii 3Tb Review

Toshiba Canvio Connect II 3TB review: Price You also get a choice of colours: red, white, gold, black or blue. Toshiba Canvio Connect II 3TB review: Features and design There’s little you can do with a 2.5in hard disk in terms of design, but the Canvio isn’t ugly. The glossy plastic casing has a slightly domed top and an activity LED in the corner. On one end is a microUSB 3....

Toshiba Satellite C50 B Iil Review

Prices for the C50 range start at just £229 for a model with a Celeron processor, but even this top-of-the-range C50-B-IIL comes in at just under £350 with an i3 processor running at 1.8GHz, 4GB memory and 750GB hard disk. That’s a decent specification for a laptop in this price range, even if the Ivy Bridge i3 doesn’t have a turboboost option to enhance performance. Its score of 2160 points in the general-purpose PCMark 7 isn’t bad at all for an i3 that is only backed-up by a 5400rpm hard drive....

Toshiba Satellite M50 A 11Q Review

It makes a good impression straight away, as the brushed metal casing of the M50 measures just 21.3 mm thick, and the laptop weighs 2.2 kg. That’s slimmer and lighter than most 15-inch laptops, and you can pick it up with one hand or carry it around in a backpack without too much trouble. Take a look at the Best laptops. The build quality is good too, with a firm, comfortable keyboard and trackpad, and the M50 certainly doesn’t look or feel like a budget laptop....

Tp Link Deco P9 Review

Thankfully, the TP-Link Deco P9 has impressive tech under the hood that should help negate the issue, providing a solid, reliable wireless connection throughout the home. It’s a tall drink of water The Deco P9 comes in a pack of two or three, and each unit is identical – there isn’t a ‘main’ unit and other points like some mesh Wi-Fi systems. The cylindrical P9 units themselves are largely nondescript, although we must admit they’re a lot taller than the likes of the Google Nest Wi-Fi and Tenda MW6....

Transference New Trailer And Gameplay Details

The game is designed to be played in VR but you will also be able to play it on a traditional screen instead. With an experienced set of producers and directors behind the project, this should be a fantastic narrative game, but perhaps not for the faint of heart as this title looks more than a little creepy. Watch the trailer for Transference below. What type of gameplay will Transference have?...

Travis Strikes Again No More Heroes Preview

Out exclusively on the Switch from 18 January 2019, the game once again follows assassin Travis Touchdown, but this time instead of working his way through an international league of fellow assassins, he’s fighting through a selection of other videogames, in a seriously meta homage to gaming’s supposed glory days. Travis is drawn into the ‘Death Drive MK-II’, a demonic videogame console (natch) where he has to race through to defeat the bosses of six distinct game worlds before a rival assassin, Badman....

Uk Cinemas Reopening Should You Opt For A Home Viewing

With the new social distancing measures in place, going to the pictures will now involve more rules and regulations to operate safely. In fact, both Vue and Cineworld have made the decision to not reopen until 31 July 2020 to try and pass new safety measurements such as making masks mandatory for both customers and staff. Keeping all these things in mind, is it even worth going to the cinema at all yet?...

Uk Phone Owners Could Get 480M From Qualcomm Lawsuit

According to Which?, Qualcomm is anticompetitive. Its practices breach UK competition law as set out in the Consumer Rights Act 2015. Which? claims the multi-billion dollar chipmaker uses its market dominance to charge phone manufacturers like Apple and Samsung unreasonably high fees for using its technology. Which? says Qualcomm not only denies competing chipmakers licenses to its patents but also refuses phone manufacturers from using its chips unless they buy licenses and pay large royalties....

Usb C Vs 3 5Mm Audio Jack The Ins And Outs

Ok, so Apple wasn’t the first tech brand to remove the physical headphone port from a phone, but those that went before – the likes of Oppo and Motorola with the Moto Z – didn’t make the same impact. The basics Let’s tackle the fairly obvious first. If your phone (or other device) doesn’t have a headphone jack then you’ll need to plug in via USB-C (assuming that’s the port of choice)....

Vantrue M2 Dash Cam Review Mirror Image

Vbox Xti 3340 Tv Gateway Review

VBox XTi 3340 review: what it is, features Vbox Communications describes the VBox as a ‘TV Gateway’. It’s a set-top box, in essence, but also a media streaming device. A media server for live TV reception and streaming over IP, with an electronic programming guide, and broadcasting in both HD and SD. Within this particular box you get receivers that can handle DVB-S/S2/DVB-C/DVB-T/ATSC, and MPEG-2/4.

What Does Me Too Mean

It’s a brave message to post, and intended to give a sense of the magnitude of the problem. Thus seeing those two little words pop up all over social media – and particularly the pages of your closest friends and relatives – can be rather harrowing. The ‘Me too’ Facebook campaign follows serious allegations made about film producer Harvey Weinstein; the NYPD and Met Police are currently investigating multiple cases of sexual assault that allegedly took place between the late 80s and 2015....

Windows 10 May 2019 Update Release Date New Features

Windows 10 May 2019 Update release date Along with everyone else, we thought this would be called the April 2019 Update, but because Microsoft has decided to do extended beta testing it has pushed the release back a few weeks so the official name is the May 2019 Update. The codename is 19H1, rather than the expected Redstone 6, but it’s no secret that Microsoft’s roadmap is for twice yearly updates to Windows 10, so it makes sense....

Windows 11 How To Disable Startup Apps

That might not be an issue if you always open Chrome or File Explorer anyway, but does every single session need the likes of Spotify or Microsoft Teams immediately? For most people, the answer is a resounding no. Unfortunately, many apps make automatic launch at startup the default setting. To stop this from happening, you’ll have to manually disable it on an app-by-app basis. However, there are three relatively simple ways to do just that in Windows 11....
