    Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra Smartphone Review

    by David Phelan
    Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra Smartphone Review
    As new smartphone cycles feel like they arrive ever faster, how do manufacturers make the latest flagship models stand out from the crowd, and even their own legacy models? If you're Samsung, you take the best of what you've already got, buff it up with some titanium, add a dose of AI and release the flagship Galaxy S24 Ultra. Does the new recipe make a flavoursome difference?

    Apple iPhone 15 Pro Review

    Apple iPhone 15 Pro Review
    If the iPhone 15 Pro Max is just a wee bit too big for your dainty digits and you wont miss the 5x zoom, then Apple's smaller iPhone 15 Pro version packs in just about everything else the flagship has to offer and at a lower price than last year's 14 equivalent. Sound ideal? We check if there are any downsides...

    Apple iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus Review
    Apple's iPhone 15 and 15 Plus smartphones for 2023 feature last year's iPhone 14 Pro A16 Bionic chip, a debut 48MP camera, the introduction of Dynamic Island plus the long awaited move to USB-C connectivity... you might not like the new colours though.

    Apple iPhone 15 Pro Max Review
    With a classy move to Titanium, the new A17 Pro chip, a 5x telephoto lens included in the rear camera array and a shift to the convenience of USB-C, has Apple done enough to guarantee another flagship winner?

    Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra Smartphone Review
    The new Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra features a whopping 200MP main camera, a switch to the same new processor across all territories and a best ever battery life. It's a flagship phone with a flagship price, so are these new improvements enough to warrant an upgrade?

    Sony PlayStation VR2 Review

    Sony PlayStation VR2 Review
    Sony serves up its second virtual reality headset, though this time it's for PS5 owners only. It costs more than the console itself but is packed with high end features for a premium out-of-body experience. Is the PSVR2 the shot in the arm the VR industry needs?

    Majority DX20 Bluetooth PC Speakers and Subwoofer Review
    Let’s face it, we all need a boost to our desktop audio. The work-from-home paradigm makes it almost a necessity. Majority’s DX20 PC speaker and subwoofer package will hardly dent your bank account, but can this super-cheap combo lift your work and play to the next level?

    ASUS and its Republic of Gamers division has released the ultimate gaming monitor, with a huge 48-inch OLED 4K display, 138Hz overclocked refresh rate, 0.1ms response time, G-SYNC support and HDR10. Is it worth the £1500 price tag?

    Apple iPhone 14 Plus Review

    Apple iPhone 14 Plus Review
    The final piece of Apple's 2022 iPhone jigsaw ups the screen real estate of the standard iPhone 14, drops some of the camera and processing extras of the Pro and Pro Max handsets and keeps many of the range's new features for the year. Has the 'screen-battery-features-value' equation been balanced in the iPhone 14 Plus?

    Apple iPhone 14 Review

    Apple iPhone 14 Review
    It may be missing a few of the big gun features found on the latest Pro and Pro Max handsets but Apple's standard iPhone 14 still has a handy basket of goodies that make it tremendously appealing. Has it got enough to keep it ahead of the iPhone 13, which has just had a price drop, though?

    Apple iPhone 14 Pro and Pro Max Review
    Keeping a similar design to its immediate predecessor and meting out the usual processor and camera improvements, Apple has instead focussed on new user interface features and invites you to... Dynamic Island.

    Samsung Galaxy Z Flip4 Review
    Samsung reckons folding phones are the future, so has it addressed some of the shortcomings in the first couple of Z Flip iterations such as under-powered cameras, processors and battery as it tempts users to binge the hinge? Let's take a look...

    Nothing Phone (1) Review

    Nothing Phone (1) Review
    The Nothing Phone (1) is the first smartphone from former OnePlus co-founder Carl Pei's new company. Overly complicated nomenclature aside, there's a handful of features which aim to put the joy back into Android devices and it's out of the gate with an attractive asking price too.

    Google Pixel 6a Smartphone Review
    Google follows last year's Tensor chip debutants, the Pixel 6 and 6 Pro, with the Pixel 6a smartphone, a more affordable handset which also sports the company's impressive processor. Inevitably a few feature compromises have been made but will that actually affect your overall experience?

    Apple MacBook Air (2022) Review
    Only the second major overhaul since the Air's introduction, the 2022 version features the latest M2 processor, a lot more screen plus an improved camera and speakers. Does this all warrant the price bump though?
