These drones, which aren’t professional devices but are aimed at enthusiastic consumers, are roughly on a par with the cameras you’ll find in the latest phones for photo and video quality. These drones, which aren’t professional devices but are aimed at enthusiastic consumers, have built-in cameras that are roughly on a par with phones for photo and video quality. Aside from the aerial perspective, many drones employ ‘gimbals’ to ensure video is smooth and stable, and the results can be stunning....

Will it be one of the best PC games available in 2018? We were invited by Bethesda to play the opening hour of The Elder Scrolls Online: Summerset in March 2018, and here’s what we thought. Release date and pricing So, when is The Elder Scrolls Online Summerset available to buy? Bethesda has confirmed that the game will be released around the world on 5 June 2018. But, if you’re already a TESO player on PC or Mac, you’ll be access to the game a little earlier, on 21 May 2018....

In this post, let’s see how to make use of Tags in Reminders. What Are Tags on iPhone Reminders? Apple’s tags are not something new. It is your regular “hashtag”, which is a label or keyword following a # sign. They are similar to the hashtags used in social media networks like Twitter, Instagram to find posts about a certain topic quickly. Likewise, you can also create Tags if you are someone who sets a lot of reminders....

The Deco follows a now-familiar format, with a kit consisting of three very compact wireless routers that can be placed in different rooms around your home. This allows them to provide reliable Wi-Fi coverage throughout your home, even in areas – such as an loft bedroom – that a single, conventional Wi-Fi router might not normally be able to reach. The Deco is only a router, though, and doesn’t include a modem for connecting to the internet....

Although the A30 launch date in India was February 2019, it was already making news due to its leaked specifications and price tag. Install official Android Stock ROM on Samsung Galaxy A30 using the Odin flash tool. Remember that this is an Indian OTA (over-the-air) update with March 2019 security patch.

We’ve seen the Mix Plus advertised all over the place for its ridiculously low price and ‘bezel-less’ design. GearBest is listing it right now for a tiny £84.94 ($109.99/93.56€), which makes it significantly cheaper than nine of the 10 phones in our best budget chart. Add in import duty – 20 percent of the value on the shipping paperwork – and you’re looking at a still-attractive £100 price tag. (Read our advice on buying Chinese tech....

Fitness trackers are great for walking, running, and a wide range of sports, but swimming is not one of them for most trackers. See: Which Fitbit is best. While there are fitness trackers that are waterproof – take a bow the Misfit Shine and Flash, plus Garmin Vivofit and VivoSmart, plus the Basic Peak, and Tom Tom Multi Sports GPS Watch – others can take a dive… or rather they can’t take a dive....

What is the Internet of Things? There’s been a lot of talk about IoT over the past few years. This is due to the fact that technology has now reached a point where small, low power, internet enabled circuitry can be cheaply integrated into a number of products. This explains the growth in internet security cameras, door locks, thermostats, lights and, yes, even smart fridges. The principle of the IoT is that these products use the web to communicate with each other and their owner (usually via a smartphone app) and take care of simple tasks automatically or via remote commands....

Without a doubt, the biggest announcement was Windows 11. This brand-new version of Windows includes an overhauled design, various new multitasking features and native support for Android apps. What’s more, it looks like Microsoft wants to build up the software infrastructure around the new OS. This includes Windows 365, a new business-focused service designed for the work from home era. Here’s everything you need to know. What is Windows 365?...

For those who are unaware, it is the same feature that WhatsApp rival Telegram implemented a month ago, wherein the user needs to hold down on a message, and a small emoji window pops up. Like other instant messaging (IM) apps, the feature could come in handy while acknowledging a message by giving a thumbs up reaction rather than replying “ok.” To use WhatsApp message reactions, open any of your chats, tap and hold on to any message, and you should see emojis popping above that message....

Electric blankets haven’t been on my radar for years and even then, they were a cautionary tale, associated with lurid tales of cheap wiring and house fires. But then the cost-of-living crisis kicked off, electricity prices rocketed, the temperature dropped, and things started to look a bit different. People in Facebook groups started sharing tips for staying warm cheaply. TikTok heating hacks abounded. And electric blankets made a surprise return, suddenly flying off the shelves at John Lewis....

If the problem is a dodgy router and you need a new one, see our list of the best routers. Figure out which device is causing the problem First, you need to establish whether it’s a problem only with the device you’re using or not. So, if you keep losing your connection to the internet, try using a different laptop, phone or tablet and see if it’s still happening. If the connection seems fine on another device and it turns out to be your laptop or PC that’s the problem, here are a few things to try....

That looks to be turned on its head in 2021, with a major ‘Sun Valley’ update expected to arrive in Microsoft’s usual October slot. The 21H1 update has been rumoured to be fairly minor for some time now, but we shouldn’t overlook some new features coming in the first half of the year. In a blog post introducing the 21H1 update, Microsoft’s Head of Windows Servicing and Delivery John Cable said it will include a “scoped set of features improving security, remote access and quality”....

The company has released another new preview build to members of the Windows Insider Program’s Dev Channel – that’s the first stage anyone with a Windows 11 device can test it for themselves. Not all Dev Channel functionality will make its way into a final version, but it’d be a surprise not to see these features arrive at some point. Arguably the most significant change is something Microsoft chose not to highlight in its official blog post....

Its first attempt was Windows RT, which was a cut-down version that ran on ARM processors rather than the usual Intel x86 chips that most laptops and PCs use. RT was a failure, but although many predicted that the end of RT meant the end of Windows on ARM, it certainly wasn’t. Anyway, the whole reason RT existed was so Windows could compete with the Chromebooks and tablets of the time....

Many cheap smart lights don’t do white very well, and really struggle with colours such as yellow and orange because of the cheap, inferior LEDs they’re built with. They also tend to have awful apps which are badly designed and frustrating to use. Enter WiZ Connected: a range of affordable smart lights that can do proper whites and colours and also have a great app that you’ll want to use to control them....

The Blade L2 is the latest super-budget smartphone from Chinese phone maker ZTE. At £89 its closest rival is the same-price Motorola Moto E, a 4.3in qHD-screen Android KitKat phone with a dual-core processor. This phone’s faster than Motorola’s cheapest handset, but speed isn’t everything in the highly competitive smartphone market. Also see: 14 best budget smartphones. ZTE Blade L2: Build and design Neither, of course, are looks. Although they do help....
