Best internal hard drive 2023 [January]

Hard disk drives are the primary storage system in most households because they provide high capacity at a low cost. Although their speed has improved little by little, they will never reach that of solid-state drives (SSD). However, the high cost per gigabyte of SSDs means that hard drives remain a staple for home storage. Our advice is to have both of them on your PC (if you can): a hard drive for mass storage and an SSD for the operating system and applications.

OnePlus 8 review: budget flagship

The OnePlus 8 follows the same philosophy of excellent design and performance. It is more expensive than its predecessors, but raises the bar for budget flagships. While its refinements in design borrow heavily from other flagships, it is undoubtedly a chic phone with beveled edges and a small round punch-hole notch for the selfie camera in the upper left corner. Thanks to the Snapdragon 865 and up to 12GB of RAM, the device offers unparalleled performance while costing less than most flagships, making this the cheapest 5G smartphone for most people.

OnePlus 8 Pro review: no more “flagship killer”

The OnePlus 8 Pro is a true flagship and OnePlus’s most complete smartphone to date. No more cutting corners. No more “flagship killer” mentality. It features a large, bright screen, long battery life and fast wireless charging, as well as an official IP68 rating. The phone is also blazing fast and features a really good main camera on the back. It is not perfect, but it is a very good smartphone and costs less than many of its competitors from Samsung and Apple.

Apple iPhone SE (2020) review: almost perfect

The new Apple iPhone SE (2020) is a wolf in sheep’s clothing: performance and camera wise it goes toe to toe with all other competitors in its price range – despite having only one camera, portraits with a bokeh effect are amazingly beautiful. The battery life is good but not great and Internet connections via LTE and Wi-Fi (Wi-Fi 6) are very fast. Both the design and display are a bit dated but if you are looking for a compact iPhone that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg, this is your best option.

Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra review: redefines the term “flagship”

The Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra is ultra in almost every way. There is a 108-megapixel camera, a 100x zoom, a 40 megapixel front camera, and a 6,9 inch display with 120Hz support. With specs that resemble a laptop, you pay a big premium. However, that is not a surprising. Is it worth buying the S20 Ultra or is it better to save money and opt for the cheaper models?

Samsung Galaxy S20+ review: the best 2020 flagship

The Samsung Galaxy S20+ is the successor to the Galaxy S10+ and an almost perfect smartphone, featuring (optional) 5G support and better cameras than ever before. It is also the most expensive Plus smartphone ever, but it can handle anything you throw at it and is future-proof.

Samsung Galaxy S20 review: just perfect

The Galaxy S20 is the cheapest phone of the new Samsung line. And although it’s not the most affordable flagship, it does offer significant improvements in camera quality, battery life, and 5G connectivity. And while you can find even better features in the Plus and Ultra versions, for everyday use, the S20 is the perfect phone for most people.

AMD Ryzen 9 3950X review: the best prosumer processor ever

The AMD Ryzen family completely redefined our expectations when it comes to consumer processors, and Intel struggles to respond. In July, AMD launched a massive 7nm offensive and its Ryzen 9 3900X is one of the best CPUs ever created, and listed as one of our best gaming CPUs. But the story doesn’t end there; AMD left us with the promise of something even more powerful in the future… the AMD Ryzen 9 3950X!
