Airthings Wave Smart Radon Detector Review

There are significant health risks from radon and much of the country lives in areas that are predicted to have high indoor levels. But what can you do? Well you could pay around $25 bucks and get a single test done or you could go out and spend $150 on an Airthings Wave Smart Radon Detector which promises to track your radon exposure over the long run. So does this device justify the extra $125?

ASRock DeskMini A300 (Ryzen 5 2400G) Review

ASRock looks to impress with the DeskMini A300. Bringing desktop performance to a mini-PC, it offers full support for Ryzen APUs while simultaneously having various add-on upgrades for extra functionality alongside plenty of space for proper storage. It indeed redefines the performance one can expect from such a small form factor system.

CORSAIR GLAIVE RGB PRO Gaming Mouse Review

With the addition of the new PMW3391 optical sensor, the GLAIVE RGB PRO is even more precise than before and should suffice for any competitive gamer. In the games we have tried such as Titanfall, AION, CS: GO and StarCraft 2, the mouse has performed admirably and thanks to its comfortable holding shape we haven’t had any issues using it for longer sessions. In terms of productivity and multi-monitor setups, this mouse is quite recommended, thanks to its high-DPI sensor and if the pre-installed thumb grip does not fit your style, you can also use one of the other two, which are provided in the package.

Corsair Ironclaw RGB Wireless Review

Corsair are also claiming that they've managed to squeeze up to 30 hours of battery life into the battery, which is an impressive feat considering that number increases if you can live with connecting via Bluetooth rather than the 2.4Ghz Slipstream option & disabling the lighting.

Dark Devotion Review

Dark Devotion is a 2D homage to Dark Souls. Although it offers a lot of new ideas to the genre, its overly weighty combat and confusing objectives make it a difficult religion to swallow.

LG G8 Review

Only a few years ago LG was largely considered one of the top smartphone brands, competing alongside Samsung and the likes of HTC for marketshare. In the last few years however, LG has had quite a bit of a rough time, unable to deliver differentiating products and sometimes failing to deliver on some important basics in a smartphone.

Today, the new LG G8 ThinQ is the newest iteration in LG’s line-up, bringing the newest technologies to the table and improving on last year’s model. One important thing to note about the G8 is that LG is no longer positioning the phone as the company’s flagship product, a position which now officially belongs to the V-series such as the upcoming V50.

The G8 thus doesn’t try to be revolutionary, and instead focuses on improving on some of the core aspects of what makes it a smartphone, with some gimmicks thrown in in an attempt to differentiate itself. Arguably, the most important distinction for the G8 is that this is the first phone in the series that comes with an OLED screen which represents a major shift in terms of LG’s past product segmentation between the G and V series.

Oculus Quest Review

The Oculus Quest could be the device that turns the VR market around and attracts the masses. It’s basically a game console built into a headset, done right.

Palit GeForce GTX 1650 StormX OC Review

Can Palit crack the GTX 1650 conundrum? Were we too optimistic for the launch of GeForce GTX 1650? As an opportunity to bring Nvidia's Turing architecture to the masses, we had hoped for a highly efficient GPU that would deliver silky 1080p gameplay in today's latest titles without the need for any additional power cables. Partner cards would ideally be as small as possible, and in a perfect world, we'd want pricing to start as close to £99 as possible.

Wishful thinking on our part, of course, as the GTX 1650 that has arrived at retail doesn't tick every box, and going by what we've seen thus far, Nvidia's partners are struggling to create models that stand out alongside the rival Radeon RX 570.

Western Digital Black SN750 EKWB Review

One thing that's for certain is that Western Digital and EKWB collaborating on this drive has improved the appearance no end. The heatsink looks sleek and stylish.
