OPINION: This week, Apple surprised us all with the announcement of a brand new MacBook Air laptop. Apple has upgraded the processor to the new M3 chip, which not only boosts performance but also unlocks support for Wi-Fi 6E and the ability to connect up to two external displays when the laptop lid is closed. […]

OPINION: CES 2024 is one of the biggest technology trade shows of the year, and so far, it’s been dominated by talk of AI. This is especially true for the PC market, especially following the recent release of the Intel Core Ultra and AMD Ryzen 8000 processor series, both of which have onboard NPUs to […]

Keeping your laptop connected on the go isn't simple, but it should be.

Intel Core Ultra is here, and the MacBook Air has true rivals once again.

AMD Ryzen AI isn't just reserved for premium device, and that's great.

OPINION: Last week, Qualcomm fully revealed the Snapdragon X Elite chip and, by all accounts, it looks like it could represents an Apple Silicon moment for Windows laptops. But, there’s one thing standing it its way, and that’s Windows itself. Qualcomm snapped up the startup chip designs Nuvia a couple of years ago now and […]

OPINION: Apple’s Scary Fast event has come and gone, and it largely played out as expected – with the M3 family launching across its Pro laptops. However, the M3 being added to the MacBook Pro range wasn’t as widely predicted. But, it doesn’t look like a great deal. Last week, I wrote about how Apple […]
-
OPINION: Apple’s October 30th “Scary Fast” event is closing in and it looks like we’re getting new 14 and 16-inch MacBook Pro models. But what of the awkward 13-incher that still is very much available to and proudly showcased on the Apple online store? It’s time to revamp or move on. It made some sense […]
-
OPINION: Back in 2021, Qualcomm acquired a company called Nuvia, formed of three former Apple employees who had worked on its mobile chips. In 2023, it’s finally coming to fruition, and it just might change the laptop landscape. Apple has been on a tear ever since it launched the M-series chips for Macs. Intel and […]
-
OPINION: Google hasn’t launched its own Chromebook since the release of the Pixelbook Go back in 2019. That’s very strange given Google is the creator of ChromeOS, the operating system that powers the low-cost laptops. That’s not to say there’s a lack of Chromebooks on the market, with the likes of Acer, Asus, Lenovo and […]
-
OPINION: The Microsoft Surface Laptop Go has been one of my favourite laptop ranges for a few years now, and a go-to option for recommendations. It doesn’t have any unique features, and performance is below average, but it hits the sweet spot for pricing. The Surface Laptop Go 2 had a starting price of $599/£529, […]

Microsoft's latest launch event is closing in, with the Surface and AI event taking place this Thur…
-
OPINION: There is so much to like about the design of Surface devices and that’s why it is so frustrating that Microsoft keeps scoring own goals when it comes to keeping the hardware up to date. At the Surface event next week, Microsoft needs to show it still cares about design innovation and not just […]
-
OPINION: I know, the ins and out of chips aren’t the most exciting aspect of a new phone launch but the A17 Pro presented some exciting new boosts and features. What’s even more exciting is what it could mean for Apple M3 devices down the line. The new Apple A17 Pro represents a step forward […]
-
OPINION: The iPhone 15 event is inbound but a new MacBook rumour emerged this week. The suggestion was a “low-cost” MacBook to rival Chromebooks in the education sector. I say, dream on. Whether it’s Macs, MacBooks, iPhones or Apple Watch models, there isn’t a year goes by where Apple onlookers don’t hope for a cheaper […]
-
OPINION: Students will be returning to their university halls in just a few short weeks, so it’s no surprise that we’ve been seeing a bunch of back-to-school tech guides cropping up all over the web. But many of them seem to forget one important aspect of student life – you probably can’t afford the latest MacBook Pro.
-
OPINION: There have recently been some exciting rumours swirling around that Apple is planning on making a modular MacBook. But, it’s certainly nothing concrete so I’m here to say persuade Apple to follow through with these murmurings and give us the Surface Book-flavoured iPad or MacBook that we deserve. Before I get into the ins […]
-
OPINION: It’s long been accepted that powerful gaming laptops come with many trade-offs. Due to the high-spec components crammed inside, as well as the sophisticated cooling systems to prevent the laptop bursting into flames, they’re typically so heavy that it feels wrong to call them a true portable. Great progress has been made in recent […]
-
Foldable phones have been around for some time now and they are really starting to find their feet. The same can’t be said for foldable laptops. They are still in their infancy but, ultimately, they are bad. But, Apple might be the company to fix that. There aren’t many foldable laptops on the market right […]

Ditch your external monitor and opt for a dual-screen laptop.

OPINION: Laptops are a great substitute for your TV, especially now we’re seeing so many models with OLED and Mini LED displays. I’ve found myself watching more and more films and TV shows on my laptop in 2023, whether it be the Succession finale in a hotel room when travelling abroad, or the latest Marvel […]

It’s an age-old question that’s only become more poignant as product life cycles have become shorter and new releases more frequent: “Should I buy the new device now, or wait for the new version?” With the new 15-inch MacBook Air, the answer is wait. Apple’s WWDC is now behind us and a new MacBook Air […]

Historically, the laptop industry has been obsessed with boosting performance. Not only would huge generational jumps in performance speed up workloads, but it would also open up new possibilities such as playing games or editing video on the go. But these days, those performance gains are starting to plateau. New generations of AMD and Intel […]

OPINION: Acer opened up its Computex 2023 keynote by suggesting Taipei, the capital city of Taiwan where the event took place, could be underwater as soon as 2050. It was a powerful warning to kick off the show, as Acer spent the remainder of the presentation talking about sustainability and what efforts the company is […]
