Keeping in touch right now is more important than ever. Now Doro, the leading supplier of telecom solutions for seniors, has added the Doro 8050. This isn’t all about specs – the connectivity, the “In Case of Emergency” button and the £200 price-tag are more important here. That …

We spoke about the wild rumours connecting 5G to coronavirus cases over a month ago and, well, we got some “interesting” emails after that (mainly threats). Over the weekend, in the midst of a global pandemic and a lockdown here in the UK, some people have taken it …

I’ve been guilty of this myself. Mainly because it’s easy. Let’s imagine you’ve been out with a group of people (imagining is all we can do right now due to social distancing). You could’ve nipped to the pub, had a day out, a camping trip or a party …

Pluralsight, which is a great online IT learning platform, is now offering all their courses for free during April. It’s a great opportunity to learn some additional skills during the lockdown. Head to this page and you’ll get a whole month of their IT videos and training. There’s …

NHS staff are having to suffer quite a bit at the moment. There’s concern over a lack of protective equipment, COVID-19 testing, and their own already-long hours and stress. This has led Vodafone to launch an unlimited data initiative for NHS staff. Their existing 30 day unlimited data …

Interested in the upcoming Huawei P40? Well, we know that Google Play won’t be on there due to the Trump Trade Termination, but you do get the Huawei AppGallery instead. What we also know is that all phone launches, right now, are happening in a very uncertain world. …

I’m loving the MagicWatch 2. I’ve actually got the Galaxy Watch on test at the minute but, I have to tell you, I prefer the Honor MagicWatch 2. Properly brilliant bit of kit. Honor are giving these things away if you buy the Honor MagicBook 14 (available on …

With all of us spending more time indoors, one of our first solutions to break up the day is TV. However, as I quickly found out, there’s a lot of places where you can watch your favourite show. Not only that, but you’ll find that some series are …

Asking Alexa to set a timer is one thing, but what if you had a gadget that took less time to set and went with you everywhere? This is Ticktime. The makers tell me that it’s “more than just a timer” and they’ve reinvented how timer looks and …
