Neowin: REDMAGIC 10S Pro review: the king of gaming smartphones, with some caveats
Following my Astra Tablet review back in the summer, I was offered the chance to test the REDMAGIC 10S Pro, which Nubia (a subsidiary of ZTE) released globally a few months ago in May. After accepting, I then found out that the people who buy this usually do it because they game on their phones. Well, to save you a lot of bother, I do not game on smartphones, but I did do a bunch of benchmarks (including 3DMark), so it's up to you if you want to stick around.

IgorsLAB: Beelink ME Mini NAS review - Small 6-Bay All-Flash Cube | Cube Weeks Part 2
Another cube, because it’s cube week again. You have to go through it (again), because many manufacturers are currently entering the NAS market and apparently Beelink also wants to get in on the act. Instead of hard disks, this model relies entirely on SSDs, with 6 of them being able to be installed despite the small size. However, specifications alone do not make a good product, so let’s take a look at the ME Mini together and also look at practical application examples.
