For the big picture. The Bambu Lab A2L offers a large build volume, excellent print quality, and optional multicolor printing at a fair price. In this review, we explain why this 3D printer is particularly appealing to makers and cosplayers—and where its camera and open-frame design impose limitations.

Big screen with lots of options. The Dell Pro 5 16 maintains the affordability aspect of the Latitude 5000 series alongside common auxiliary features like WAN and touchscreen as optional extras. Businesses or offices not looking for anything fancy will find the Dell Pro 5 16 to be the sweet spot for most use cases.

Tiny camera, big image quality. DJI expands its popular Pocket lineup with a telephoto lens for the first time, positioning the Osmo Pocket 4P directly against the Insta360 Luna Ultra. Our review shows that outstanding 4K footage, a refined user experience, and 103 GB of internal storage can matter more than 8K resolution.

Points for style. The Motorola Moto G37 is an affordable 5G smartphone that stands out with its sleek design, solid battery life, and reliable Wi-Fi. However, our test revealed significant cost-cutting measures compared to the Moto G35—read here to find out why its predecessor is almost the better choice.

Standing up to the competition, elevating your setup! The Tidal gaming desk from DXRACER is the perfect companion for work/play, despite its “gaming” aesthetic. The desktop has a metal segment that allows for magnetic accessories, and the company includes cable organizers with the desk, unlike the competition.

This simply will not do. With the Pad 5, Oppo has launched a comparatively affordable mid-range tablet offering 5G, a large 12.1-inch display, stylus support and GPS location tracking. Unfortunately, the global version differs so substantially that recommending this Dimensity 7300-powered Android tablet is virtually impossible.

Batmobile or Badmobile? (July 2026 update: Various improvements following severe malfunctions) It looks like Batman's robotic lawnmower. But is it really the Batmobile for the home garden or is it more of a "badmobile"? Our review of the Airseekers Tron provides the answer.

LPCAMM2 and swappable motherboard. After five full years with the same Laptop 13.5 model, Framework has finally developed a successor worthy of the "Pro" name. The much-needed update doubles down on everything that made the original so special while addressing many of the common concerns.

An old game in a fresh new guise. After the Gothic 1 Remake became a surprise success, Ubisoft is also trying its hand at remaking a classic. Our benchmark analysis examines whether Black Flag Resynced delivers on a technical level—and whether it can help turn things around for the struggling publisher.

Updates urgently needed. In our test, the Motorola Razr Ultra 2026 impressed with its high-quality hinge, sharp displays, and improved battery life. However, its older technology, camera compromises, and higher price raise the question: Is that enough for a premium foldable?

Price trumps prestige. The Xiaomi 17T Pro promises high-end technology at an attractive price. In this review, we’ll assess how the display, camera, performance, and battery life hold up in everyday use, and whether the smartphone can live up to its premium claims amid stiff competition.

Slower CPU, but still the fast Radeon 8060S. The base model of the compact Asus ProArt PX13 convertible is equipped with the AMD Ryzen AI MAX+ 388 and the powerful Radeon 8060S graphics. You also get the familiar 2.8K OLED screen, 32 GB RAM and a 512 GB SSD for $1899.

A battery-life marvel? Vivo’s new headphones are the company’s first over-ear model, and they aim to lure buyers away from the AirPods Max 2 and Sony WH-1000XM6 right from the start with high-end hardware. Active noise cancellation, strong sound quality, and long battery life are intended to support their premium ambitions despite the affordable price. Could these headphones be a hidden gem?

Camera instead of RTK. Unknown manufacturer, familiar concept. The Natural Expressions Performance 7 is an affordable robotic lawn mower for small gardens up to 500 square meters that impressed in testing with its camera-based navigation system.

Who needs Windows on ARM? The ThinkPad X1 Carbon is Lenovo's business flagship and the new Gen 14 model gets a new chassis as well as Intel's new Panther Lake mobile processors. The low-power IPS touchscreen offers an amazing battery runtime and with great input devices as well as optional 5G connectivity, this is a great business laptop. Update: Battery life with OLED

A mini tank that trades a lightweight body for control and premium aesthetics. The NAVEE UT5 Ultra X is a high-performance electric scooter featuring a highly capable 4800W peak dual-motor configuration with adjustable hydraulic suspension. Coupled with a unique gold aesthetic, the UT5 Ultra X aims for look and speed over last-mile practicality.

The touchscreen adds potential, and complications. The Command Series KB7 keyboard from Turtle Beach is a smart solution to the size limitations of a TKL keyboard, or it would have been if the software wasn’t holding it back.

Premium gaming with uncompromising performance. Asus is updating its ROG Strix SCAR 18 G835LXG with the Intel Core Ultra 9 290HX, an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5090 laptop GPU, and an 18-inch 4K Mini-LED display with a 240 Hz refresh rate and 2,000 dimming zones. It also offers excellent serviceability thanks to simplified access to components and extensive customization options with AniME Vision and versatile RGB lighting.

Farewell gift. The Pad 4 is likely the last OnePlus tablet available in many parts of the world. In our review, it impressed with strong performance, a bright 144-Hz display, and an excellent 25-hour battery life. However, a few weaknesses do detract from the attractive overall package.

The Secretlab Magnus Evo XL promises high stability and smart cable management for gaming and home-office use. Our review shows whether this height-adjustable desk justifies its relatively high price.

Wet and dry cleaning. The Eureka FloorShine 830 is a fairly affordable wet/dry vacuum cleaner that offers features such as edge-free mopping and self-cleaning. Read our review to find out if this wet/dry vacuum cleaner impressed us in real-world use.

64 GB RAM for a 14-inch subnotebook. The Dell Pro 7 14 continues the Latitude tradition of prioritizing functionality and ease-of-use above controversial features like the zero-lattice keyboard. It's also one of the few laptops to ship with up to the Ryzen AI 9 HX Pro 470 CPU.

Turn on the light. The CZUR ET Max is designed to digitize books and documents in a matter of seconds. We put the scanner—which also doubles as a document camera—through its paces in everyday use.

Flagship tablet at an attractive price. A large 13.2-inch display, high-end performance, and a massive battery: the Pad 5 Pro is cheaper than an iPad Air 13, but does many things better. In addition to stylus and Wi-Fi 7 support, it also boasts surprisingly long battery life. In this review, we’ll take a look at whether this powerful premium Android tablet is worth buying.

Grinning face with edge-cut module. With its optional PreciEdge module, the Roborock RockNeo Q1 promises to solve one of the biggest problems with robotic lawn mowers. Our review reveals whether Roborock’s entry-level model actually delivers on this promise in real-world use.

Improved, but also worse than before. Asus refreshed its high-end Zenbook S14 with a new Panther Lake processor from Intel, a slightly bigger battery as well as a brighter OLED screen. While the CPU performance has increased, the GPU performance is lower than before.

A unique switch concept with decent execution. The Lofree Hyzen keyboard offers something that no other keyboard on the market does. And that’s why it demands a premium price that is mostly justified.

Waterproof. The HoverAir Aqua is a waterproof sub-250-gram drone that can take off directly from the water and reliably track athletes. Our test shows how it handles wind and performs on the water, and why the lack of obstacle detection can become a serious drawback.

Big-screen experience. With the TUF Gaming A18, Asus offers a relatively affordable XXL laptop whose expansive display is ideal not only for films but also for gaming. We tested a configuration featuring the Ryzen 7 260 and GeForce RTX 5060 and compared it with the latest 18-inch rivals.

Noctua's first all-in-one cooler. With the Noctua NL-LC1-24, NL-LC1-36, and NL-LC1-42, the cooling specialist is entering the all-in-one (AiO) liquid cooling market for the first time. In our tests, all three models impressed with their high cooling performance, easy installation, and first-class build quality. We’ll show you which variant delivers the best temperatures and which model is best suited for whom.

Unique futuristic style. The Aulumu M10 power bank charges up to four devices simultaneously through its dual magnetic wireless charging pads and dual USB‑C outputs. Its built‑in charging cable also acts as a carry loop.

Cage me if you can. The Teufel Cage Pro wants to take gaming sound to a new level: with low-latency 2.4 GHz wireless technology, hi-fi-inspired drivers and versatile connections. Our review shows how well the sound, microphone, comfort and features are convincing in practice.

Agile and foldable The Urtopia Carbon Fold 2 is a lightweight, foldable e-bike designed for everyday use. In our test, we assess both its practicality in daily riding and its advertised folding mechanism. The Carbon Fold 2 performs well overall, although the battery setup raises a few concerns.

Small but powerful. With the Nexode Air 65W GaN, Ugreen offers an exceptionally compact USB-C fast charger that combines modern GaN technology with up to 65 watts of charging power. It is aimed at users who want to charge a smartphone, tablet, and laptop with a single power adapter whenever possible. Read our review for the full details.

The SK-07 has arrived. This time, Loop Gear has opted for a more traditional design, though the flashlight still stands out from the competition with its unconventional controls and finish.

Snappier with Snapdragon. Despite all the criticisms about the Snapdragon X1E series, Qualcomm is back this year with Snapdragon X2E. Results are extremely speedy beating out even the Intel Panther Lake Core X9 series in many ways.

Red Legion. Lenovo's Legion brand premium to mid-range gaming laptops. The Lenovo Legion 5 15AGP11 is mid-range, making some compromises, but still including high-quality components, like an OLED screen. With the combination of AMD Ryzen CPUs and Nvidia GeForce, this laptop is a strong performer in our review.

Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus & RTX 5090. The Razer Blade 18 is one of the fastest gaming laptops and the 2026 model now features Intel's latest Core Ultra 9 290HX Plus in combination with the familiar GeForce RTX 5090 and the dual-mode 4K IPS screen with 240 or 440 Hz. However, the price is now much higher than before.

A compact flash that punches well above its price tag The Viltrox Vintage Z1 Pro packs TTL, manual flash control and a retro-ish design into a compact body for just $59.99. After testing it extensively with the Fujifilm X100VI, it turned out to be a very dependable companion for travel and street photography despite a few minor inconveniences.

Master of the Silhouette. The Motorola Edge 70 Pro stands out for its light weight, sleek and attractive design, high-quality camera features, and good battery life. The price is also reasonable. In this review, we’ll take a detailed look at what this high-end phone has to offer and also address one major drawback.

Choosing between LCD and e-ink for your use-case Huion has expanded its digital notebook line with the $369 Note E and the $369 Huion Ink. We tested both 8.4-inch LCD and 10.3-inch e-Ink models to see which hardware approach handles daily note-taking and reading tasks better.

More battery power, fewer power outlets. Long battery life, an Intel Core Ultra 9 processor, and a 16-inch display: The Geekom GeekBook M16 aims to impress with its endurance and modern features in everyday use. Our in-depth review will reveal whether the laptop excels in performance, display, and build quality—or if it has any shortcomings.

A for All daily affairs. The Samsung Galaxy A57 5G builds on its proven strengths: a brilliant display, long battery life, and solid performance. This review shows why this mid-range phone is impressive—and where a lack of innovation and minor shortcomings detract from the overall impression.

Mobile mixing. The Maono P1 audio interface offers creators and gamers a capable audio interface that can be used to make broadcasts from laptops and phones. The mixer provides high mic gain, a low noise floor, and high-resolution music output.

Strong, but not good enough? Sony's flagship phone is significantly lighter and more compact than a Galaxy S26 Ultra or Xiaomi 17 Ultra, but is also said to be equipped with top-of-the-line cameras. It also features a 3.5-mm headphone jack and a microSD slot. Read the review to find out why the Xperia 1 VIII falls short of the “high-end” designation.

Almost like the X1 Carbon. The new ThinkPad T14s Gen 7 is a premium 14-inch business laptop and Lenovo equipped it with a completely redesigned and lighter chassis. Our review unit features AMD's Ryzen AI 7 PRO 450 CPU, 64 GB RAM and a matte IPS-touchscreen. Update: Comparison with the X1 Carbon

A solid alternative to DJI’s Osmo Pocket 4/4P. The Luna Ultra is Insta360’s first gimbal camera that features a dual-lens design and a detachable screen. The gimbal camera offers versatile shooting modes with Leica and film effects. We tested it to see how well it works.

Petite e-reader. The Boox Go 6 (Gen 2) is an Android e-reader with a paper-like display, making it a versatile device for reading, writing, and note-taking.

A sensible choice. The Creality K2 Combo targets beginners with high-quality prints, simple operation, and dependable multicolor printing via CFS. Our review shows just how impressive its print quality and feature set are, as well as where Creality makes compromises despite the attractive price.

A standout. Most laptops fade into the familiar grey and black crowd, but the vivid Surge Green version of the Lenovo LOQ 15AHP11 refuses to blend in. Our review finds out whether this 15-inch gaming laptop has the inner muscle to match its eye-catching exterior.

Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge, Apple iPhone Air—there’s a trend toward ultra-thin smartphones. To complement this trend, Baseus offers an ultra-thin magnetic power bank, the PicoGo Air. With a 5000 mAh capacity, it’s designed to keep smartphones powered through the day. Charging data and temperature can be read via NFC.

One of the best everyday laptops? Microsoft now offers its Surface Laptop 13.8 with new Snapdragon X2 ARM chips from Qualcomm with better performance and longer battery runtimes. You still get the bright IPS screen as well as comfortable input devices, which makes it a really good overall package.

Colors instead of features. The INNOCN CB32U1 targets creative professionals and Mac users with its 4K resolution, 120 Hz refresh rate, and high color accuracy. In our review, the 32-inch monitor impresses with exceptionally high contrast for an IPS panel, although it makes a few compromises in terms of features and build quality.

Better or just more expensive? Microsoft updates its Surface Pro convertible with Qualcomm's new Snapdragon X2 Elite SoCs. All the other aspects pretty much remained unchanged, but since it is 2026, you have to pay more. While business customers can once again get Intel CPUs, private customers are still limited to ARM SoCs.

Recording... in progress! Our hands-on test shows what the P1 Pro AI Recorder from iFLYTEK can do, in which situations it is best used, and what the final result looks like.

Ultra performance without the Ultra name. The new OmniBook X Flip 14 is even more impressive than the OmniBook Ultra Flip 14 with more CPU performance, more ports, and a revised keyboard and look. However, most SKUs are limited to just a 60 Hz touchscreen despite the ~$1500 asking price.

Expensive package but with features to back it up. The Arctis Nova Pro Omni builds on the strong foundation of the popular Arctis Nova Pro Wireless headset. They improve on all key features, including sound quality, battery life, and connectivity, but with a slightly higher price tag.

Compact and affordable. The handy Vivo X300 FE costs half as much as the Ultra model and cuts corners in all the right places: The battery is barely smaller, some cameras are more light-sensitive, and when it comes to performance, the phone can handle almost anything. Is Vivo producing the strongest competitor to its top-of-the-line model?

Small but mighty? An AI assistant in the form of a wearable device—small and compact, with the power of ChatGPT. How mighty is the Mini AI Recorder, and for whom is it designed for? Here is our review.

Walled garden. With the Galaxy Buds4 series, Samsung aims not only to improve sound quality but also to set new standards in comfort, noise cancellation, and AI features. We’ve thoroughly tested the new in-ear headphones and highlight where they excel and where there’s still room for improvement.

Quiet media server. The TerraMaster F4-425 Pro doubles the number of its processor cores to eight, offering twice the performance of its predecessor. With its quiet fans and sleek metal chassis, the NAS is an impressive backup solution and media server, but its higher price puts it in competition with some even faster alternatives.

Strong performance at low volume. The GMKtec NucBox K17 combines the Intel Core Ultra 5 226V with a quiet cooling system and high energy efficiency. In this review, we’ll examine how this compact mini-PC performs in everyday use, under heavy load, and with multimedia and office applications, as well as its strengths and weaknesses compared to the competition.

Uncommon Ryzen 9 8940HX processor. The Crosshair A16 HX is laser-focused on optimizing CPU and GPU performance alongside a high quality IPS display while trimming away luxuries like RGB lights, long battery life, good speakers, G-Sync, and Advanced Optimus. Gamers on tighter budgets may find the Crosshair worthwhile.

Audiophile unlocked. I've tested quite a few headphones over the years, but I wanted to find out what a truly expensive pair feels and sounds like in comparison. Can you actually hear the difference without being a hardcore audiophile? I put the new Audeze MM-520, priced at $1,700, to the test.

Subtle yet powerful. The Amazfit Cheetah 2 Pro is a capable smartwatch with premium materials and a fairly compact yet very bright AMOLED display. It delivers a convincing performance in our test, but one design decision still bothers us.

A high-capacity campsite workhorse with bougie quality-of-life features. The BougeRV F01 is a heavy-duty portable fan built around a large 20,000mAh internal battery and features a persistent Bluetooth control module. Outperforming standard portable fans in raw air velocity, it handles outdoor environments with ease.

Fast charger. The Cuktech 30 Ultra desktop charging station delivers up to 300 W—optionally through just one port. Our review reveals what that means and what else this desktop power source has to offer for laptops, smartphones, and other devices.

Premium keyboad, sensible pricing. The Akko Air 01 is a mechanical low-profile keyboard with a Mac-first layout, but it has proper Windows support. The 75% wireless keyboard has a gasket mount style, a premium aluminum chassis, hot-swappable switches, and a slim design. It retails for $99.99, making it pretty affordable.

V6 Unfolded. The Honor Magic V6 combines an extremely slim design with a large battery, powerful specs, and versatile cameras. Despite only minor improvements over its predecessor, its performance and everyday usability are impressive, even if the under-display camera and cooling system still have room for improvement.

Panther ThinkBook. A laptop north of €1,000 is hardly a budget system, but in the year 2026, it may be considered so - especially if it offers 32 GB of memory. The Lenovo ThinkBook 14 G9 IPL is a laptop with a good amount of RAM that many people can still afford, a rare sight in the times of the memory crisis.

Powerhouse. The Ugreen NASync DXP6800 Pro impresses with its powerful i5 hardware, fast dual Ethernet, and Thunderbolt 4, but lags behind established competitors in terms of software maturity and RAID features. A NAS for hobbyists and home labs, but also for small businesses.

Indestructible. The Durabook R10 is a true heavyweight designed for extreme working environments. A solid magnesium casing, brightness exceeding 1,000 cd/m², and the clever hot-swap battery system make the Durabook R10 ideal for rugged outdoor use. We put this professional tablet to the test.

A new level of performance. MSI's Claw 8 EX AI+ is the first device with Intel's first dedicated handheld SoC Arc G3 Extreme, which features the powerful Arc B390 iGPU. The result is a completely new level of performance, easily beating AMD's dedicated Z2 Extreme handheld chip. Update: Frame generation & additional battery tests

Honor delivers. Ultra-bright display, 200 MPix camera and two days of battery for half the flagship price. Can the mid-range phone Honor 600 really keep up with the top? We tested it.

Going wild for Wildcat. At a time when anything new can often cost more than two grand, the upcoming Wildcat CPU instead targets budget-oriented laptops designed for students or home multimedia playback. Performance results are nothing too exciting for better or worse.

Glitchy yet versatile. The Insta360 Go Ultra action cam separates for shooting videos and photos, but camera and app issues hinder its recommendation.

Panther Lake for more consistent performance. The 14-inch ThinkPad X1 is back this year powered by Panther Lake and a refreshed look. The list of minor changes add up to a noticeably better user experience especially depending on the configuration.

A capable and beginner-friendly off-roader. The VIPCOO H2 is a compact electric dirt bike built around a 3500W mid-drive motor. Despite its smaller frame and 14-inch/12-inch tire setup, it delivers enough power to easily pop a wheelie and navigate rough terrain.

Turn on the spotlight! Is a ScreenBar really better than a traditional desk lamp? We put the BenQ ScreenBar Halo 2 to the test and compare its ease of use, brightness, potential glare, and more.

Zen Master. The Galaxy A37 5G offers a high-quality OLED display, IP68 protection, and 6 years of updates at a fair price. Its weaknesses lie in the secondary cameras and performance. Find out in our review whether this Samsung phone can hold its own against the competition.

Outdoor World Cup. Want to watch the World Cup outdoors? We put the AWOL Valerion (VisionMaster) Pro 2 laser projector—complete with a 120-inch outdoor screen—through its paces in a World Cup field test, including outdoors under the open sky. Is this bundle suitable for public viewing in the garden? Our review has the answer.

An expensive but capable package for personal and professional use. The Sermoon P1 from Creality is a high-precision 3D scanner, and is a first for the company to offer an all-in-one solution. On paper, it is a bit more accurate than its similarly priced, but older competitor from Revopoint.

Infinite width. Titan Army has a new 49-inch super-ultrawide gaming monitor on offer. With 5,120 × 1,440 pixels, 240 Hz, KVM, and a maximum field of view, it aims to win over gamers. Does it succeed?

Flatfish. The Google Pixel 10a promises a well-rounded package combining modern hardware, smart AI, and the camera quality Google is known for. But are the technical improvements enough to stand out against the strong competition in the mid-range segment? And does it live up to its high standards?

A compact massage gun that works muscles like the big boys. The Bob and Brad Q2 Ultra Massage Gun with infrared and heated massage head delivers an effective massage in a highly portable form factor. Built for anyone looking for knot relief, the Q2 Ultra packs a solid therapeutic punch.

A bargain or a disappointment? A robot vacuum with a modern mopping roller for under $800 MSRP? That’s exactly what the Lefant M5 Pro offers. Our review reveals whether it can keep up with its mopping-roller counterparts, which are usually significantly more expensive, and what else it has to offer.

The desk declutterer. The 5-port Nexode Pro 160W is among the newly introduced fast chargers from Ugreen. It comes with a smart display, a foldable plug, and a premium finish. With four USB-C ports and one USB-A port, it can charge almost everything at the same time.

All you need. The Maono PD100W is a fairly basic USB microphone with adequate features for most budding podcasters and conference callers. Its primary feature is the included wireless adapter, which increases its versatility.

HDR without the premium. The RayNeo Air 4 Pro are affordable AR glasses that feature HDR10 OLED displays. They sport a 120Hz refresh rate for a smooth gaming experience, and the built-in Bang & Olufsen speakers are quite good. But there are aspects where they fall a little short.

Travel light, charge fast. The Ugreen Nexode Air 65W is a small yet capable fast charger that can power phones, gaming handhelds, MacBook Neo, other laptops, and accessories. It supports a handful of protocols, and the adapter performed well in our tests.

Plenty of storage and performance. Bosgame is back with a striking new industrial design for its latest mini PC equipped with the latest AMD Zen 5c Gorgon Point processor. It may be a little big, but it supports more SSD slots than most competitors.

Best tablet in the mini category. It doesn't always have to be a revolution—sometimes all it takes is building a tablet that does just about everything better than the competition. With the Pad Mini, Oppo elevates the compact category to a whole new level, pairing premium specs with a fast OLED display and an extra-long battery life.

Convenient EDC carry. The Aulumu G05 Pro is a slim MagSafe phone stand that doubles as an aluminum grip with built‑in tools, including a knife, saw, screwdriver, file, and SIM ejector. Its everyday‑carry convenience makes it a standout accessory for users who want more utility from their phone stand.

Translator by your ear. The iFLYTEK AI Translation Earbuds are designed for real-time translation. They’re ideal for frequent travelers, business users, and anyone who wants to overcome language barriers. Our hands-on test examines how well the AI earbuds translate and how they compare to the built-in translation features of today’s smartphones.

Forced coffee time. 4K, up to 1,000 nits, 240 Hz, 0.03 ms, KVM switch: beyond raw spec-sheet extremes, the BenQ QD-OLED monitor aims to impress gamers with an especially vibrant visual presentation. How? Through game-specific color profiles designed to make the image look more contrast-rich, brighter, and overall more spectacular.

Tiny yet mighty. The Ugreen Nexode Air Slim 45W is a tiny fast charger that held its ground well in our tests. With a peak efficiency of around 95.4%, it's a solid travel-friendly power adapter for phones, tablets, gaming handhelds, and accessories. Update: supported charging protocols tested.

More efficient and with a brighter screen. Asus switched to Intel CPUs for the new ROG Zephyrus G14 and powered by the GeForce RTX 5070 Ti, it is still one of the most powerful 14-inch laptops you can buy. You also get an updated 120 Hz OLED screen, which now reaches brightness levels of more than 1,000 nits.

Colorful convenience. The Boox Tappy is a colorful page turner connecting wirelessly with the company’s e-book tablets, allowing readers to flip pages, scroll websites, and adjust volume levels from afar.
