JLab JBuds Air Review

I love my AirPods. Seriously, I never leave home without them, and when I do, I feel like there’s a piece of me left behind. That’s because Apple made a product so well that it seamlessly fits into my lifestyle. It slides well into my pocket, has long battery life, and sounds good for its size. But now, JLab Audio’s JBuds Air have come on the scene with great features and a super affordable price point to rival Apple’s AirPods. Head below for our full review.

Lenovo Yoga C930 Review

A stylish convertible that ticks almost every box. There's more to Lenovo than just ThinkPads. Since 2012, the firm's refreshing line-up of Yoga products has offered something a little different to the business-like appeal of a ThinkPad, making them a useful destination for a new generation of customer.

Yoga has become a place for Lenovo to experiment and innovate - the dual-screen Yoga Book C930 comes to mind - and after plenty of trial and error, it is now home to some of the best convertibles on the market. One such example is the Yoga C930 (not to be confused with the aforementioned Book), a premium, 13.9in Ultrabook that excels in almost every area.

The Occupation Review

There are a lot of games that cast players as journalists, but few that portray the job in any sort of realistic way. As soon as the you-know-what hits the fan, video game reporters usually toss aside their notebooks and recorders and become typical daring action heroes.

USB4 spec announced, will be based upon Thunderbolt 3

Hot on the heels of last week's USB 3.2 news - where the USB-IF tried to simplify consumer choices as we go forward - there is news today on another new USB standard, USB4. Intel revealed the next-gen spec at an event in Taipei earlier today. In brief, Intel is open licensing its Thunderbolt 3 technology, so third parties can use it royalty free, and the USB-IF is integrating this tech which will then become USB4. Thus, USB4 will offer up to 40Gbps speeds, double the speed of the USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 standard (AKA SuperSpeed USB 20Gbps).
