Awair says that indoor air can be five times more polluted due to everyday factors such as paint, furniture, carpet, air fresheners and toys. It also highlights the fact that air quality affects allergies, asthma, concentration, sleep health and overall health. So it’s well worth knowing how ‘clean’ the air is in your home, office or wherever you spend your time indoors. Awair 2: Price & availability The Foobot is a bit more expensive at £199....

What many more players have is a system that can achieve 1080p at the highest graphics quality in the ballpark of 60 to 100 fps. For those PCs, a 4K display or one that offers a 140Hz refresh isn’t appropriate, as the graphics card just can’t generate enough frames per second. The BenQ GL2580HM is made for general home and office users, it has some gaming potential for those with lower spec machines....

While some of Nintendo’s main console games have been ported to the DS range, many of the best DS games are ones developed specifically for the platform. You can play all of these games on the 3DS or 2DS and we’ve not put them in any particular order, it depends what kind of game you like. We’ll also be adding more very soon. And if you don’t have a 3DS yet, check out our 3DS buying guide to pick the right console for you....

We’ve gathered together the best alternatives to Android Pay so you can tap and pay, collect your loyalty rewards, or keep your travel tickets close at hand, all on your Android smartphone. How do I use my Android phone to pay for things? One of the most useful additions to Android in recent years has been the ability to purchase items in stores using tap and pay. There are a number of apps that offer this feature, but they do require that your device has NFC capabilities to work with the contactless payment points....

Windows 10 can’t even play DVDs, but if your computer came with a Blu-ray drive it’s possible there is already software on your system which will play the high-definition discs. Some popular programs which are included with Blu-ray drives include CyberLink PowerDVD and the now-defunct ArcSoft TotalMedia Theatre. You can buy the latest version of PowerDVD, but there are also free options including Leawo and VLC if you don’t want to spend any money and are happy with the absolute basics....

A dash cam records the view out of your windscreen as you drive, so you have video evidence should anything untoward happen. This can be submitted as evidence in the event of an insurance claim, and some insurers even offer a discount on your premium if you fit a dash cam. Recording just a forward-facing view isn’t as good as having both front and rear cameras, and there are becoming more good-value deals in this area, so you don’t need to spend silly money to have a front-plus-rear setup....

And with Covid-induced lockdowns, dating apps are more popular than ever. Last March, Tinder made 3 billion swipes worldwide. Dating apps have also adapted to new lockdown measures by introducing video chat features. To help you pick one that’s best for you, read on for some of the best dating sites and apps to get you started. Bumble Bumble is a lot like Tinder in that it’s a free app-only dating service that’s based first and foremost on looks, and even the UI is very similar – all of which makes sense once you know that it was created by a former Tinder executive....

Freed from the constraints of marketing departments and AAA budgets, indie developers have been putting out some of the weirdest and most interesting games out there, and thanks to support from Valve, Microsoft, and Sony, it’s never been easier to find and buy the best indie games, whether you play on console, PC, or just on your phone. Still, there are thousands of great indie games out there, and it can be a bit daunting if you don’t know where to start, so with that in mind, we’re rounded up a few of our favourites....

The Babadook This low-budget Aussie horror became an online sensation, and for good reason. Jennifer Kent’s directorial debut centres around the children’s book of your nightmares, but it’s not really about the book or the Babadook that haunts it. Instead grief, motherhood, and mental health run rampant in a film that’s almost as stressful when its monster is off the screen as when it creeps onto it. Fantastic Mr. Fox This stop-motion animation is Wes Anderson’s take on a family film: anarchic, oddball, but consistently charming....

Google Play Music Although you might think Play Music is only for Google’s streaming service, you’d be wrong. It’s the default music player on the company’s own phones, and is preinstalled on plenty of others. The interface is clean and easy to navigate, but there’s a less obvious bonus. Google allows you to upload a whopping 50,000 of your own tracks to the cloud for free, which you can then stream or download via the app....

We have a whole guide on how to watch Hulu from outside the US, but the most important element – especially if you already have a Hulu account – is simply to use a VPN, which will let you access the Hulu website or app through a server based in the US, which will make Hulu itself think that’s where you are. What to look for in a VPN for Hulu If you’re not sure exactly what a VPN is or want to know how it works in more detail, check out our guide to how to use a VPN, and otherwise read on for our recommendations of great VPNs to use with Hulu....

Though some models have already launched elsewhere in Europe, to buy any of these phones in the UK you must ship them from abroad. Based on their European retail prices we can have a pretty good guess at how much they will cost when they eventually arrive here, and these Black Friday deals look to offer significant savings. We’ve listed prices in GBP, but GearBest ships to countries around the world – change the currency in the drop-down at the top of the site to get local pricing....

When was the last time you thought about checking the online security status of a preferred online shop or service? It’s probably not often —and that’s because in today’s connected world most of us take online security for granted. Online threats are not limited to large corporations or brands—anyone can become a victim. For this reason, it’s important to know what to look for to ensure a safe online shopping experience....

We like Chromebooks. For very little money they offer an easy to use experience, the security and convenience of the cloud, and a surprising amount of productivity. If there’s one glaring hole in the Chromebook universe though it’s that of gaming. To be fair you can get a number of decent titles from the Chrome Web Store, including Angry Birds, Bastion, and Realm of the Mad God, but for many the mecca of digital entertainment resides in Steam....

While there are plenty of options on the market when buying colour laser printers for the home office or small business, a larger and more demanding office needs a machine that can take a serious pounding and still produce consistent quality at rapid speed. It’s for just these circumstances that Brother has released the HL-L9200CDWT. (See also: Best printers of 2014.) You know when a printer is sturdily built when it takes two of you to manoeuvre it into position comfortably....

No obstante, en el caso de programas como la suite de Microsoft Office o incluso de Windows, es probable que muchos usuarios todavía tengan instalados en sus ordenadores algún tipo de software o programa con licencia perpetua o adquirida hace años. Localizar la clave de producto de tu suite ofimática o de tu sistema operativo Windows una vez que lo tienes instalado en tu equipo, puede ser un verdadero calvario si resulta que has tirado el embalaje original o compraste una licencia online....

The announcement was made at a digital panel at the Annecy Festival, and though rumours have been circulating for a while, Netflix’s distribution is new news on the market. Netflix UK confirmed the involvement over on Twitter. According to Variety, Sam Fell will direct, best known for his work on Paranorman and Flushed Away. The team has been brainstorming the sequel for years with co-writers Karey Kirkpatrick and John O’Farrell, but were waiting for a distribution company that was “filmmaker friendly”....
