Let’s jump right in with this one – it’s got a massive 6.57″ 1080×2400 pixel 20:9 ratio screen (~400 ppi density) and there’s a rapid HiSilicon Kirin 990 5G processor. This is octa-core and runs up to 2.86GHz. So, very bloody quick. It measures 162.7 x 75.8 x …
On Monday Ofcom published the results of 5G testing which proved that radiation levels in the UK were at “tiny fractions” of safe limits. However, this testing comes against a backdrop of conspiracy theories, critical stories on click-driven newspaper websites and totally unsubstantiated claims on Facebook. The latter is …
Announced in China last year, the 9X Global edition was launched in Barcelona last night. It’s the first Honor smartphone which is pre-installed with the Huawei AppGallery we discussed last month.

Sitting on the Three network, the boys from Smarty seem to be having a “moment”. They’ve put a £10 SIM-only deal online which will get you a stonking 30GB of data. There’s no speed restrictions, you get unlimited everything else and… woah, that’s a deal. I’ve personally got …
Right now, right at this minute, we should be in Barcelona. We should, as in years past, be soaking up at least 5 minutes of sunshine as we queue to enter the Fira de Barcelona Gran Via. Sadly, it all got cancelled and we’re instead stood in the …
Just recently I bit the bullet and cancelled Sky. I’d moved to Virgin a number of years ago and then moved back to Sky. They did me a deal at £15 for the Entertainment pack but have steadily increased it. In truth, I just don’t use it. There’s …
OK, the letters “GDPR” will probably spark confusion here. If you’ve had any involvement in it at work, you’ll probably have a cold sweat right now. However, for everyone else it’s a really good thing. Set out by the EU, it stands for “General Data Protection Regulation” and …
It’s been one of those weekends when lots of things decided to break. It started on Friday evening, when I noticed a rusty damp patch in the kitchen ceiling whilst eating dinner. This only meant one thing – a leak. I took a spotlight out of the ceiling …
If you’re a Star Wars fan, this is a TV series you simply need to watch. Created by Jon Favreau (yes, the guy from Spider Man), it’s been released on Disney +, which is now available in the UK for £5.99 a month. Of course, the “real” fans …
As you may know, I’m trying to sweat it out at the gym right now. It’s a constant battle to just get up. A nice warm bed at 6AM, or a freezing cold gym with the music cranked up? Anyways, TCA approached me and said, “Hey can you …
Update – We’ve recently posted an additional update to this story here. Many years ago, mobile networks gave the location of their masts to Ofcom. That was back in 2011 though, and after a bit they ditched it. Mobile companies didn’t have to map the location of masts, …
These are classed as over-ear headphones but do sit more on your ears. They are, let me tell you, rather classy in appearance. Price-wise they’re classy too, at £79 in either black or white, but do check our exclusive coupon code later on in this review to get …

We all know that drones are becoming more useful. The police are using them now and they’re continuing to grow in popularity, even with the increase in regulation. But, what about building one big enough to sit in? You could get to work in that in no time. …
I spotted this Honor tweet yesterday which actually showed the Honor MagicWatch 2 down to £125.44. However, it’s since changed now. Either way, when I click on the Amazon link it took me to the 46mm version at £159.99.. A 14-day battery life, 24/7 heart rate monitor and …
It’s raining, everywhere is flooded and the summer holidays seem too far away. However, if you’re on Pay As You Go with Vodafone there is a bit of good news for you. The network has today launched unlimited data and 5G for all of you guys, meaning a …
This morning my wife jabbed me as I lay snoring. “Someone has tried to find my location. Someone knows where I am!” It had happened about 6AM and I just assumed that her Samsung or Google account had been hacked, with someone activating the “Find my phone” feature. …
Yes, you can use the Google Translate app or, if you’re heading around Europe and you have yourself £259, you can get the Pocketalk S.
