While earlier Galaxy S21 supports the S Pen stylus, Samsung did not include this. The new generation Galaxy S22 Ultra however not only comes with the S Pen but an onboard storage silo to charge it when docked. This begs the question, what will the future of Galaxy Note20 Ultra Ultra be?
The past week saw the much-anticipated official release of Nvidia’s two-year-long-overdue entry-level GPU. Performance-wise, it saw significantly better and much more practical results than the universally lampooned AMD Radeon RX 6500 XT, despite falling severely short of surpassing the original RTX 2060.
Despite the rather lackluster release of Intel’s 11th Gen CPUs on desktops (Rocket Lake), 11th Gen mobile (Tiger Lake) has been met with considerable success. It certainly didn’t wow consumers with huge IPC gains or overwhelming feature upgrades. But 11th Gen Intel laptops kept price and performance levels that ultimately resulted in a technological stalemate […]
Budget Alder Lake is the best thing that happened to PC tech in 2022 so far, period. Unlike AMD, which effectively abandoned the entry-level budget segment after Zen 3, Intel continued its traditional offerings of sub $200 CPUs through its 10th Gen and 11th Gen processors. Now, it’s 12th Gen’s turn. Due to significant architectural changes, […]
When folded, the Galaxy Z Fold3 5G looks a tad narrow. The rear screen is narrow and tall, not like the normal display on a standard smartphone that we are used to. Enter Oppo Find N, the company’s first foldable phone with the right proportion. A full size rear display and an even bigger display, […]
Manufacturers are going Pro these days. On top of their standard flagship offering, usually a bigger one carrying the Pro label is on offer. For OnePlus, it started three generations ago, starting with OnePlus 8 and OnePlus 8 Pro. Then there is OnePlus 9 and OnePlus 9 Pro. This year, it’s the next generation OnePlus […]
In today’s high-quality and heavy data-focused online world, 4GB RAM and 128GB storage becomes the standard minimum that would cover most phone users’ needs. This is while still giving ample wiggle room to let the files pile up to manage them later.
Right at the beginning of this year, Samsung unveiled to the world in an official update post and at CES 2022 for its upcoming newest lineup of displays for both productivity and entertainment. All three products were already quite phenomenal on their own. But the biggest surprise was the promoted specifications for each of these […]
PC enthusiasts delight at the task of checking specs, looking at numbers, and comparing performance differences. For the average user, though, this can be a complete chore, and may even be totally counterproductive depending on how incompatible their regular activities are with PC technology.
Entry-level GPU is dead. At least, that was how we perceived the empty void below our current “mid-range” lineup: the RX 6600 XT, RX 6600 and the RTX 3060. Either you have to pay exorbitant prices to get respectable frame rates, or keep using outdated architecture to eke out a meager experience of very low-end gaming […]
Intel’s 12th Gen Alder Lake CPUs certainly turned heads when they finally became available for retail a few months ago. But, for us low budget-oriented enthusiasts, the costs associated with Intel 12th Gen systems (Z690, DDR5, etc.) are simply not worth our attention. We were far more interested to see if the promise of cheap non-unicorn […]
Handheld gaming PCs are a weird bunch, at least when it comes to classifying them as a piece of consumer hardware. For the most part, we define something as a “handheld PC” when it is built to run a full desktop/laptop operating system in mind. This means either using traditional Intel or AMD CPUs, or […]
As the entire PC enthusiast community reels in the disaster that is the current GPU crisis, people are driven to look for any alternative solutions to building a gaming machine. In the past, full size gaming desktops have been the go-to for gamers but not anymore. Gaming laptops and even Mini PCs are considered given […]

Together, with other energy efficient components (integrated GPU, WiFi and super fast connectivity) they carry the Intel Evo badge. We look at 8 of the best powerful and light laptops weighing less under 1.2kg.
When shopping for a 4K Ultra HD monitor, 28-inch is the sweet spot to go for. With that many dots, 27-inch might just be a little tight while 32-inch 4K monitor are still expensive. Also, at Ultra HD resolution, you are not going to get any higher than 60Hz refresh rate so fast action gamers […]
If you are looking for a multiple monitor setup with 4K monitors, these 27-inch monitors are your best bet. They are big but not too big that it becomes overwhelming when you have more than one. Even if you are looking for a single 4K monitor setup to work from home (WFH), connecting up your […]
High refresh rate screens offer the best in viewing experience especially when scrolling on your app or browser and enjoying high action content be it games or video streaming. Typically reserved for high-end phones, all major flagship smartphones come with at least 120Hz AMOLED or OLED panel. What if you want that same fluid experience […]
Need ultra long battery life to be able to use your laptop all day and night without worrying about charging, then you have come to the right place. Today’s mobile processors and laptop components are becoming more efficient, so much so that it will last up to 18 hours or more on a full charge. […]
We know that AMD Ryzen 7 5800H processor performs equally when compared to Intel Core i7-11800H, both being octa-core CPUs. Paired with the right GPU such as the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060, RTX 3070 or RTX 3080 or even the Radeon RX6600M, they are a formidable gaming machine that is not only good value for […]
Mid-range laptops have changed significantly over the past two years. Not just in terms of graphics performance, but the average choice of CPUs has since then drastically evolved thanks to AMD’s insistence in driving its multi-core philosophy to the mobile market. We take a look at some of the best mid-range mobile gaming laptop for […]
