Overall, there isn’t really a lot to be said for RAM – it either does what it should, or not. The 16GB kit that I received certainly did everything it promised and went the extra mile. Even for non-gamers, it is a worthwhile upgrade.
Hands-on Review – PNY XLR8 Epic-X RGB Gaming RAM Read More »
Overall, for the price, this is actually a pretty worthwhile option to consider for most usage scenarios. Only the direst of gamers or professionals who push such high volumes of data around that even a slight increase in performance becomes significant will need to look beyond this range.
Hands-on Review – PNY CS2140 1TB NVMe M.2 Gen4 x4 SSD Read More »
Overall, this is a great router to consider if you want, or need, to upgrade your home network with something that has some level of future-proofing in it. The only slight drawback for me was the lack of a USB port on this unit…
Hands-on Review – D-Link AX3200 Mesh Wi-Fi 6 Router Read More »
Overall, this is a welcome evolution of the technology, and it looks to be somewhat future-ready too, as devices that support the 2.5Gbps data rate are still slowly reaching the average-consumer marketspace.
Hands-on Review – D-Link DMS-106XT Unmanaged Switch Read More »
Overall, if you find yourself cursing the signal drop-out in parts of your property, this is a very affordable solution that is more than ‘the bare basics’ but won’t strangle your wallet.
Hands-on Review – D-Link DAP-1610 AC1200 Mesh WiFi Range Extender Read More »
Overall, this has to be one of the most appealing smart-home devices I have come across. Feature-rich and simple to use with an intuitive interface thanks to the latest redesign of the ‘mydlink’ app.

A four-pack of reviews of the new HP-branded flash drives from PNY. Overall: A bit of a mixed bag.

Overall, this phone is pretty good. It needs some adjustments to really make it “wow” but it’s not an overpriced slouch by any means. The photographic modes need some work, however they perform better than my ‘minimum standards’ so that’s a bonus. This is a smartphone you likely won’t regret buying as it has a very good balance of usability and affordability.
Hands-On Review: OPPO A91 Smartphone Read More »
Overall, I found this to be a decent mid-range phone, well priced for what you get, though letting itself down a little in some key places. […] Users who have a stronger focus on social media posting will find this a great phone, but gamers may be a little disappointed.
Hands-on Review: OPPO Reno2 Z smartphone Read More »
Overall, this unit was a real stunner, providing more than enough capability to handle the large number of smart devices I have in the house without affecting my day to day networking needs.
Hands-On Review: D-Link EXO AC3000 Smart Mesh Wi-Fi Router – DIR-3060 Read More »
Overall, it’s a top-notch entry-level phone, no pun intended. It will do all you ask of it, within reason, and give you good service. It is one of the rare handsets these days that still carry the 3.5mm headphone jack, which I really love…
Hands-on Review: OPPO AX5s Smartphone Read More »
Overall, this is a good entry-level phone for someone in their 30’s an up. Younger people will want, nay, demand something with more grunt because “…I want to play the newest games, Dad… this sucks.!” This is a phone, first and foremost.
Hands-on Review: Huawei Y6 Pro 2019 Read More »
Overall, a stunning advancement in family-oriented home security and quite overdue. While it is not the first device to address this market, it is certainly the best I have encountered myself and leaves the other devices I have tried eating its dust. At $600+/- it’s not cheap, but if you have kids it’s an investment you would be wise to give serious consideration to.
Hands-On Review: D-Link D-Fend AC2600 WiFi Router Read More »
Overall, a surprisingly good camera that has room for development but hits the ground running with an impressive toolset already built in.
Hands-on Review: FujiFilm X-T3 DSLR Read More »
Overall, is this a good printer for someone wanting something simple, durable and long-lasting? On most counts, I would say a definite yes. You really are not going to find the initial setup to be pleasant, fun or fast, but at least you only need to do it once.
Hands-on Review: Epson ET-2710 EcoTank 3-in-1 MFC Read More »
Overall, I still think this phone is going to shake up the marketplace – you simply don’t get this kind of gear from any other brand at a price even close to this. Would I recommend it to a friend? Sure, in fact, I showed it to a friend recently and the next day they went and bought three of them…
Review: OPPO AX7 Smartphone Read More »
Overall, this is a device that will appeal to a good audience, while having zero impact on the high-end market. It’s well placed for the Selfie Generation, but should also carry some interest for the small-format digital photographer.
Review: Oppo R17 Pro Read More »
Overall, this was a delight to use, and very well placed for the SOHO and small/medium business market. Larger businesses may want to skip this and invest in the top-line hardware and specialist software, but anyone else will find a set of 4-6 of these more than sufficient to cover the external facings of any moderate building. The price tag is well within the budget for even a home user simply wanting something to keep an eye on the car, boat or approaches to the front door or garage, and for the sake of a couple of holes and some ethernet cable, it gives you peace of mind in all weather. Well worth considering if your needs fall in line with that.

It’s a good across-the-board handset – Above-average in most areas but top-flight in none. For those seeking their first ‘big’ phone it’s a perfect place to start…
