This year, Lenovo will release two new noise-cancelling headphones that will carry its Yoga moniker into the audio realm. The new headphones — the Lenovo ThinkPad X1 ANC and Lenovo Yoga ANC — are expected to go on sale around June and July, respectively, and compete with the Microsoft Surface Headphones. That fact will help separate the Lenovo Yoga and ThinkPad X1 ANC from other similar style headphones like the Sony WH-1000XM3 and Bose QuietComfort 35 II, and puts them closer in line with the M

All of the MateBook X Pro power without the luxury-price trappings, the MateBook 14 could be another laptop to beat in 2019. Huawei took the opportunity at MWC 2019 to debut one of its stranger choices for a laptop, at least at first glance: the Huawei MateBook 14. Like all of its laptops, Huawei is selling the MateBook 14 in both “Mystic Silver” and “Space Gray” varieties, and the MateBook 14 measures 0.63 inches thin and weighs 3.28 pounds. Early verdictThe Huawei MateBook 14 may look indistin

Nubia has bridged the gap between wearable and smartphone with the Nubia Alpha, a device with all the features and functionality of a phone but which wraps around the wrist like a fitness band. Unveiled by Nubia at their press conference at MWC 2019 the Nubia Alpha is a strange hybrid device – and a rather fascinating one. Nubia has bridged the gap between wearable and smartphone with the Nubia Alpha, a device with all the features and functionality of a phone but which wraps around the wrist li

Think that Sony isn’t interested in 5G just because the Sony Xperia 1 doesn’t support it? Sony is showing off a new prototype 5G device at MWC 2019, and the company has confirmed to TechRadar it won’t be pursuing 5G in the consumer space until 5G is fully offered by mobile networks. The Snapdragon 855 is capable of supporting 5G – that’s the chipset inside the LG V50 – so why won’t Sony’s latest flagship support 5G? “Being the first in 5G… that’s not what we’re trying to achieve.” Kishida cont

Hotly following the Nvidia GeForce GTX 1660 Ti that just launched days prior, apparently we can expect a laptop version of the graphics card to come out soon. A new mobile Nvidia GPU codenamed ‘N18E-G0’ popped up in Notebook Check’s database , and the outlet strongly suspects this could the GTX 1660 Ti-class GPU meant for laptops. Unfortunately, Notebook Check doesn’t list any specific specs for this rumored GTX 1660 Ti for notebooks. For when you’re not gaming, the best laptops to workto work W

Lenovo may very well be the first out of the gate with a laptop using Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8cx processor, the company teased during an MWC 2019 press conference. As to why we’ve not seen a single Snapdragon 8cx laptop on the market yet is anyone’s guess, but there are some likely causes. One, laptop makers are likely reticent to pick up on Snapdragon 8cx given the poor performance of the previous platform ( Snapdragon 850 ) and the speed at which Qualcomm moved on from it to this version. And,

Right now you can get the TLC 65-inch 4K Smart TV on sale for $829.99. That’s a $470 discount and the best price we’ve seen for this Amazon’s Choice Roku smart TV.

Tokina has confirmed full details of its latest wide-angle zoom lens, the opera 16-28mm f/2.8 FF. The lens bears the same basic specifications as the company’s existing AT-X 16-28mm f/2.8 PRO FX, although it arrives with a smarter design and additional internal technologies. Tokina also states that the direction of the manual focusing ring’s travel has been designed to match that of Canon and Nikon lenses. The Tokina opera 16-28mm f/2.8 FF will be available in Canon EF and Nikon F mounts from Ma

Natural Interaction will feature in the BMW iNext, scheduled for release in 2012. A video demonstration showed how telling the car you’re feeling tired could turn down the temperature, open a window, and put on some rock music to sharpen you up. Natural Interaction will also reduce the need for physical controls within the car, but Dr Grote says BMW doesn’t intend for it to replace its iDrive infotainment system just yet. The BMW iNext will feature level three automation. Ultimately, Dr Grote sa

The technology that lies beneath Hand ID is impressive, and is probably going to be rolled out to more phones in the future. Unsurprisingly, Samsung quietly discontinued that technology – but that didn’t stop LG referencing how much better and accurate its implementation was. This is a long-winded way of getting to the main point: that by making this the headline technology, LG is hiding some great, and more attractive, stuff in its phone. Perhaps Hand ID will be improved dramatically in the nex

Google Assistant is going places. In the midst of MWC 2019, the year’s biggest mobile show, Google has announced plans to integrate its smart assistant across a number of Google-developed applications. The Google Assistant AI will also bring up possible website links or Google searches users might wish to make based on their message chains – though Google says your messages aren’t being read while it does so: “Information isn’t sent to the Google Assistant until you tap on the Assistant suggesti

If, for some reason, you need absolutely loads of storage on your smartphone or tablet, then you’ll be pleased to know that two microSD cards have been announced at MWC 2019 with 1TB of storage – making them the highest capacity microSD cards in the world. The competitionMicron’s claim to the world’s first 1TB microSD card was short-lived, however, with Western Digital announcing its own 1TB UHS-I microSD flash memory card, the 1TB SanDisk Extreme UHS-I microSDXC, which the company claims is the

The latest word from the graphics grapevine is that AMD intends to cut the asking price of its Radeon RX 590 and RX 580 graphics cards by a considerable amount to be competitive with Nvidia’s new GeForce GTX 1660 Ti. While that’s the US price, if it happens, we’d expect a global price cut in line with that across all territories. If you recall, the launch price of the RX 590 was $279 (it was around £260 in the UK), with the RX 580 pitched at $229 (around £220 in the UK). So it seems like a bit o

Not content with playing Mario and Zelda on your Nintendo Switch? You’re not alone – and developers Billy Laws and Max Keller have modded Nintendo’s hybrid console in order to get it to run the Android OS. That’s what the modding duo have managed, as you can see in the video below – and with some concessions, Android O will run on the Nintendo Switch. Considering the Nintendo Switch is quite light on media and productivity apps, Android support would fill those gaps nicely. Of course, tinkering

Smartphone manufacturer OnePlus isn’t making any announcements at MWC 2019 in Barcelona, Spain, but it did have a presence in the form of a 5G prototype handset. We went to check out the prototype 5G device, housed in a sizable case to protect its identity, to see what it could tell us about the OnePlus 7. We grabbed some footage of the prototype device in action, check it out below:Big screen and no notch? While the case the OnePlus 5G phone is in doesn’t show any of the handset’s body, one thi

At the moment, there are four Javelins in Anthem: Ranger, Colossus, Storm, and Interceptor. So, instead of telling you which Javelin is the most powerful, it’s perhaps more useful to say which Javelin will suit your playstyle best. The Ranger suit is brilliantly equipped to execute primers, which other classes can then capitalize on with devastating detonators. StormAt the moment, if there were to be a best Javelin, it would probably be Storm. ChoicesSo, while there isn’t a best Javelin, there i

The Game Boy Advance was the pinnacle of Nintendo’s handheld offerings, supporting 32-bit graphics and an extensive library that caters to almost every genre. Not to mention that the Game Boy Advance was backwards compatible with the legendary library of titles that belonged to its predecessors. Luckily, the mighty Game Boy Advance was actually the home to countless classics that appeared on a multitude of systems, with the added bonus of being drastically cheaper. There’s no disputing the sheer
