We can hark back to the good old days, of wooden counting rods, jigsaws and puzzles, and bemoan the dominance of digital. There’s a difference between a touchscreen and actually touching objects.

See what we make of each one including price, design, hardware and software. Surface 3 vs Nexus 9: Price As usual price is an important element when buying a new gadget. It’s of little surprise that the Google Nexus 9 is the cheaper option starting at £319....

There are two models, the 5in Moto E4 and the 5.5in Moto E4 Plus. When is the Moto E4 release date? For some reason the Moto E series is out of step with the G series. In 2016, Lenovo launched the Moto G4 and the Moto E3. The bigger E4 Plus can also be bought from those retailers, as well as from Vodafone and Three. How much does the Moto E4 cost?...

Apple’s latest iMac stands out for a number of reasons, but most obvious of all is its amazing 27in 5K display. With a screen 5120 pixels wide and 2880 pixels high, it offers the highest resolution of any display currently available and this feature alone makes the £1999 price tag seem more than reasonable. Of course you get a lot more than just a cutting-edge Retina display with the new iMac all-in-one PC....

Encryption by default is still a long way away One of the most important shortcomings of the HTTP protocol is the lack of encryption by default. This allows an attacker connected to the same network as you to inspect traffic originating from your device in order to intercept login credentials, authentication cookies or manipulate your traffic. The HTTP Secure extension to the protocol alleviates these issues, but adoption is slow, and almost half of Internet websites still rely on HTTP to exchange information with client devices....

So far Nintendo has only released living room consoles for its Classic Mini series, but there’s no reason it can’t go down the handheld route as well. The firm is also rumoured to be working on an N64 Classic Mini. Game Boy Classic release date So far there’s no word on a possible release date but we’d expect it to be next year at the earliest. The Game Boy came out a number of years before the N64 so it would make sense for Nintendo to continue in chronological order....

Nokia 8 Sirocco: Price and availability The Nokia 8 Sirocco is available now from all major UK retailers at £649. That’s not bad for flagship when you compare to the likes of the £739 Galaxy S9, but there are some bargains to be had out there. The best value phone at the moment if you ask us is the £469 OnePlus 6. We’ve compared the Sirocco and the Nokia 8, its predecessor....

Those looking for something a bit more up to date will have their eyes trained on the Nokia 8 Sirocco flagship handset, which seems to be a premium upgrade to the less exotically named Nokia 8. But, is it worth the extra money needed to buy one? We compare the Nokia 8 Sirocco with the Nokia 8 to find out. Price and Availability The Nokia 8 is already available and impressed us when it came out in the second half of 2017....

It’s important to say at the start that this is not a supersized version of the Nutribullet personal blender, which is made for smoothies and drinks with frozen fruit and ice. Although you can make iced drinks with this blender, that’s not its forte and it’s not intended to be used as an ice crusher without adding other liquid. If you’re primarily looking for an appliance to make blended ice drinks and cocktails, you might be better off something like the Zwilling Efinigy table blender, which has a dedicated ice crushing setting....

Here’s everything that Nvidia announced at Gamescom 2018. What did Nvidia announce at Gamescom? To the surprise of just about no-one, Nvidia’s main announcement was the new Geforce RTX 20 graphics card series. Geforce RTX 2080 The new flagship Geforce GPU comes in three main flavours: RTX 2070, RTX 2080, and the suped up RTX 2080Ti – with prices starting from $499 and pre-orders open now, for a full release on 20 September 2018....

With that in mind, should you even care about the OnePlus 3T? In this article we examine the key differences between OnePlus 3 and OnePlus 3T, and attempt to answer whether or not you should upgrade from the OnePlus 3 to the OnePlus 3T. What is the same, and what is different – we compare OnePlus 3 vs OnePlus 3T. OnePlus 3 vs OnePlus 3T: What’s the same? We know how annoyed you OnePlus 3 owners are, so let’s kick off with what’s the same to help you feel better....

The new Snapdragon chip is thought to be the first built on the 7nm FinFET process, packing the X24 modem and promising download speeds up to 2Gbps. Its predecessor, the second-generation 10nm Snapdragon 845, was announced in December 2017, so it doesn’t seem possible to us that a phone expected to arrive before this time in 2018 is going to carry the 855. We think rather than OnePlus pushing back the 6T release date accordingly, the new chipset is much more likely for inclusion in the OnePlus 7 which we’ll see in summer 2019....

As you might imagine, this is achieved over USB-C – not using wireless charging – with Oppo saying it uses three ‘charge pumps’ supplying power to the phone at 10V/24A. Despite the very high power output of 240W, Oppo says it conforms to standards for heat dissipation. “By taking a holistic approach to the safety of the adapter, charging cable and the handset, Oppo minimizes potential safety hazards and risks, providing an efficient and secure charging solution,” said Oppo....
