Apple was pushing up its Let Loose launch event as a “different kind of Apple event” and the most significant iPad launch since the first iPad before revealing the new iPad Pro 13-inch (2024). Now that the dust has cleared, it appears that the anticipation was mostly warranted. Together with the recently announced 11-inch model, the iPad Pro 13-inch (2024) is an exceptionally capable and adaptable device that, as the accompanying marketing blurb indicates, boasts several “firsts” and “bests”: it’s…

Acer Vero 16 users may notice a few oddities right away when they take the device out of its package. Not only are the R and E keys at the incorrect positions, but the entire interface feels… off. Against the backdrop of aluminum laptops and phones with glass backs, this unpainted, matte-plastic laptop seems a bit out of place. It turns out to be a good option, though, and the build quality is flawless. However, the laptop’s performance, which falls…

An attractively tiny prebuilt gaming PC, the Acer Predator Orion 3000 pairs a potent midrange GPU, the Nvidia GeForce RTX 4070, with a potent 13th-generation Intel Core i7 processor. Although it’s not as customizable as we’d like, it’s still a good choice for high-end 1080p and 1440p gaming. Generally speaking, to the do-it-yourself crowd, encouraging you to purchase individual parts and assemble a whole PC. (You can see builds, breakdowns, and more on our YouTube channel.) However, prebuilt gaming PCs…

For the price, the Gigabyte G6X is all about the specifications. A 16-inch gaming laptop from Gigabyte included an Nvidia RTX 4060 GPU and an Intel Core i7 HX CPU. Additionally, the business went above and beyond by integrating 1TB of solid-state storage and 32GB of RAM at this pricing point. For a $1,349 laptop, that is a lot. Following that, Gigabyte began to lower the price by making concessions. However, all of the tradeoffs are well-thought-out; nothing about this…

To appeal to professional gamers as much as possible, Alienware has developed its Pro line of gaming keyboards and mice. Pro gaming team Team Liquid put them to the test to make sure of that exact thing. The Alienware Pro gaming keyboard‘s significantly smaller but stronger chassis and premium switches make it feel like a device designed for just that kind of user. The Alienware Pro gaming keyboard is available in two colors: Lunar Light and Dark Side of the…

The Asus Zenbook 14 OLED, the newest model in a line of reasonably priced, straightforward, ultralight laptops that has been in production for more than ten years, is part of the march toward more affordable laptops that provide some degree of artificial intelligence-focused tweaking. Similar to the Acer Swift Go 14, the Asus Zenbook 14 (UM3406HA) is available for purchase at a price that is well under $1,000. In contrast to the Swift Go, the Zenbook is constructed on AMD’s…

One of my favorite laptops of 2024 is the Acer Swift Go 14, which I dubbed a “MacBook Air killer” because of its excellent performance and gorgeous display at a reasonable cost. This year, Acer made a strong comeback by introducing the newest Intel Meteor Lake processors together with a fresh emphasis on artificial intelligence, as evidenced by the Copilot key. Does the business, however, keep up the momentum? Yes, in a nutshell. The most recent Acer Swift Go 14…

It’s no secret that the MSI Raider GE78 HX 14V is a gaming laptop. This laptop looks the part with its amazing LED RGB light bar and sleek, modern casing. Although a 4K display would have been advantageous, the display prioritized adopting a 16:10 aspect ratio, much like many other gaming laptops. All of the hardware underneath is top-notch and current generation. The top of the list is the GE78 HX 14V, which starts with an Intel Core i9 CPU…

Regarding the Galaxy Book series of laptops, Samsung has made a name for itself producing high-end notebooks intended for business use. The laptops have fantastic displays, are lightweight and thin, and have a terrific appearance. This also applies to the new 14-inch Galaxy Book4 Pro. It weighs only 2.64 pounds and is about 12 millimeters thin. It features an OLED touchscreen with 3K resolution. It is finished in Moonstone Grey, a sophisticated shade of grey that subtly shifts to a…
