IgorsLAB: Razer Viper V4 Pro review: 49 grams, 8,000 Hz, and a clear focus on competitive gaming
With the Viper V4 Pro, Razer continues its esports-focused Viper series and clearly positions the new model in the segment of particularly lightweight, wireless high-end gaming mice. According to ALTERNATE, the mouse features a weight of 49 grams, Razer HyperSpeed Wireless Gen-2, a polling rate of up to 8,000 Hz, and the Focus Pro 50K Optical Sensor Gen-3 with up to 50,000 DPI. The Viper V4 Pro is therefore aimed primarily at users who prioritize the most direct possible input, low weight, and precise sensor tuning.

HotHardware: Moto Razr Fold Review: The Folding Phone That Puts Samsung On Notice
We’ve come a long way with folding phones since Samsung launched the original Galaxy Fold seven years ago. Motorola’s been dominating the flip-style form factor since 2023, while abroad, Chinese manufacturers like Oppo and Honor continue setting the bar for book-style folding handsets. Here in North America, Samsung made a splash with last year’s Galaxy Z Fold7, while Google’s trailing behind with the Pixel 10 Pro Fold.

APH Networks: ENERMAX PlatimaxII 1200DF 1200W Report
What has changed in the last 16 years? I would say the world has changed quite a bit since 2010. At the time, I was just an undergraduate engineering student barely passing my classes, still living with my parents, and drove a Honda Civic. The S&P 500 was around 1100, and the median house price in Calgary was $400,000. APH Networks was five years old, and our editorial team had five people. We worked with about 70 manufacturers, publishing approximately 200 reviews. Today, our editorial team, excluding guest writers, has eight people, and we have worked with over 180 manufacturers for more than 1600 reviews. One manufacturer we tried working with back in 2010 was ENERMAX. Unfortunately, they were unable to send us any products back then, because we were based in Canada. I did not quite understand exactly why that was the case, since typically USA and Canada have always been considered basically one region, but I just moved on and forgot about it. However, recently, ENERMAX reached out to see if we were interested in covering their latest models. Indeed, something has changed in the last 16 years, because they are now able to send to Canada. So to mark this occasion, let us kick off our first ever ENERMAX product review here at APH Networks -- after being in the industry for 21 years and covering 126 power supplies since 2006 -- to see what they have in store for us. Read on to find out more!

MacRumors: Nimble Wally Stretch Review: A Colorful Charger With a Retractable USB-C Cable
Last year, accessory maker Nimble came out with the Wally Stretch power adapters, and they've become some of my favorite charging options. The Wally Stretch is available in 35W and 65W options, and it has an excellent design. It's a simple cube with prongs that fold down, a retractable USB-C cable, and an extra USB-C port. The 65W model that I tested is thicker than the comparable 70W Apple charger, but it's smaller in length and width.
