If you are planning to use your PlayStation 5 for more than just gaming — whether that’s to stream movies and TV shows on Netflix or play music on Spotify — you’ll be happy to know that Sony’s next-gen console will support some of the more popular entertainment apps at launch.
Sony confirmed in a blog post on Thursday that following entertainment apps will be available on the PS5 on November 12th: Apple TV Plus, Disney Plus, Netflix, Spotify, Twitch, and YouTube. The company also said more streaming apps, such as Amazon Prime Video, Hulu, and Peacock, were coming to PS5.
Notably absent from the list is HBO Max, which is currently in contract disputes with Amazon and Roku over the inclusion of the new streaming app on their platforms, and pay-TV options like Sling. (Sony shut down its own pay-TV Sling competitor, PlayStation Vue, last year.) Interestingly, the anime streaming service Crunchyroll, owned by the same parent company as HBO, will be available at launch, a spokesperson confirmed to The Verge today.
Additionally, Sony confirmed that the four previously unmarked buttons located on the dedicated PS5 Media Remote would serve as dedicated launch buttons for Disney Plus, Netflix, Spotify, and YouTube, as you can see pictured above. The remote will launch alongside the PS5 on November 12th, but it is not included with the console. It’s currently available as a separate $30 purchase at Target. Other retailers — including Amazon, Best Buy, and GameStop — are also selling it, but they’re currently out of stock.
With next-gen consoles set to arrive in just a few weeks, Sony is showing that its upcoming console is much more than just a system to play video games. The inclusion of four dedicated launch buttons to some of the more popular streaming apps — and the recently unveiled system interface, including a separate home screen for entertainment apps — gives us a better glimpse of how PS5 owners will be able to use the hardware come launch day.
Update October 22nd 1:14PM ET: Updated to include that the Crunchyroll app would be available on PS5 at launch.

The world may still be facing social gathering restrictions, but a new Disney Plus feature will at least let us watch together virtually instead.
Disney Plus GroupWatch lets up to seven subscribers watch the streaming service together over the internet in their respective homes. A GroupWatch icon appears on the show or film’s title page, letting you start you own mini viewing party. Synchronised playback means that each subscriber can pause, play, rewind or pause for the whole group, and emoji reactions can be shared in the mobile app.
GroupWatch was first tested in Canada in September, according to The Verge, but it’s now rolling out to other regions – including the UK.
Amazon Prime Video already allows up to 100 subscribers to watch the same content together, while the Netflix Party add-on gives Netflix a similar feature. This kind of feature has enormous potential, especially given the current pandemic is making it difficult, impossible or undesirable to meet up in person. You’ll just have to provide your own popcorn.

17 Disney Plus tips and tricks: stream Mulan and Marvel movies like a pro
(Pocket-lint) – It may all be about streaming these days, but those who have a physical copy of their shows or movies can still enjoy them through the power of a top Blu-ray player.
Blu-ray discs give your entertainment a big leap forward in terms of picture quality, taking things from SD to HD 1080p. However, while picking up a dedicated box may seem like a simple way to get the most out of your collection, there’s plenty to understand before you buy, as not all Blu-ray players are created equally.
Some will come with the ability to upscale DVDs, others stick to the very basics and a select few double up as a streaming box. It can get a little twisted, so to help you avoid getting stung, we’ve detailed some of the top Blu-ray players below.
Best Blu-ray players to buy right now
LG BP175
squirrel_widget_3371594
LG’s BP175 is one of the most reliable players on the market, and power users who want the very best experience will have no problems matching the top-end asking price here.
One of its best features is simply the ability to play Blu-ray discs from Region A, B, or C, which is also backed up by the fact it can upscale DVDs from SD to the typical 1080p HD – so, there’s no need to have a separate box.
Sony BDP-S3700
squirrel_widget_3371689
Sony’s BDP-S3700 sits more in the mid-range, offering the bonus of being able to operate like a streaming box, not just a simple Blu-ray player.
You’re able to stream 1080p HD quality using Wi-Fi, or by casting from mobile devices, and those with more of an extensive DVD collection will also see their movies or shows upscaled, too.
Just be aware that while you can access plenty of the most popular streaming services through the Wi-Fi, Amazon Prime is currently not available.
Sony UBP-X700
squirrel_widget_2700183
Sony’s high-end UBP-X700 takes things a step further than much of the competition, acting as a home for DVD and Blu-ray discs (regular and 4K Ultra HD), as well as offering streaming capabilities over Wi-Fi.
Everything you watch is upscaled to 4K, with HDR10 and Dolby Vision also working to give you the best possible picture – even for those watching on non-HDR TVs.
It’s perhaps overkill for people looking for a simple Blu-ray player, but those who want something that can deliver the highest quality available right now needn’t look any further.
Philips BDP1502
squirrel_widget_3492211
If you just want a classic Blu-ray player without any of the frills – and, crucially, without the lofty price tag of 4K options, Philips’ BDP1502 is a good choice.
You get Full HD 1080p upscaling for all of your standard definition DVDs, as well as a remote to control picture-in-picture for video and audio choices.
As we say, there are no advanced features here – and those who want streaming capabilities will have to look elsewhere – but it’s a solid pick for those who just want a portal for their mountains of discs.
LG BP250
squirrel_widget_3140697
If you just want a place to play your Blu-ray discs without spending over the odds, LG’s budget BP250 is the one to consider.
There’s absolutely no bells or whistles here, which is to be expected for the price, but it does handle the basics with ease. Providing your Blu-ray discs are from Region B and your DVDs are Region 2, you’ll be able to receive 1080p playback and upscaling.
You won’t get the ability to play 4K options, and the BP250 doesn’t double up as a streaming box, but it’s one of the most cost-effective choices out there for people who just want a home for their discs.
Tojock EVP-101
squirrel_widget_3371879
Tojock might not be a household name, but the EVP-101 is still a relatively affordable Blu-ray player packed with the most typically required features.
There’s support for discs from Region A and Region B (although unfortunately not Region C), while other discs, such as DVDs, can be from any region. Even better, the 1080p Full HD playback isn’t just restricted to your Blu-ray discs, with SD DVDs also receiving upscaling.
All in all, it’s a great device to consider if you have discs from plenty of different regions and don’t require streaming capabilities.
Panasonic DP-UB150EB-K
squirrel_widget_2700298
It might be a little on the pricier side, but Panasonic’s DP-UB150EB-K offers plenty of functionality.
It’s able to support HDR10 playback, 4K UHD for your compatible Blu-ray discs, and even upscale SD DVDs, giving you a wide range of choice from your library.
There’s no Wi-Fi support, which means it doesn’t give you the same streaming box capabilities as other devices at this price range, but it’s a solid pick for those who just want a new home for their discs.

Amazon Prime subscribers now get free one-hour grocery pickup at all of Whole Foods’ 487 US stores, Amazon announced today. The news marks an expansion of Whole Foods’ existing pickup service, which was previously only available at select stores, according to CNBC. Orders costing $35 or more are eligible, and thousands of items including fresh produce, meat and seafood, and other staples are available for pickup.
Pickups have become increasingly popular during the pandemic as people attempt to social distance. Businesses ranging from electronics retailers like Best Buy to local restaurants have relied on them to allow people to shop safely. But Amazon says it expects the trend to continue even after the worst of the pandemic has passed, citing research that suggests that almost 68 percent of people plan to continue using curbside pickup services in the future.
This is the latest expansion Whole Foods has made to its pickup services this year. Back in April the company expanded the service from around 80 of its stores to over 150, CNBC notes.
Whole Foods isn’t alone in expanding its pickup options. Back in June, Target announced plans to offer fresh grocery pickup in over 1,500 of its stores by this year’s holidays. Meanwhile, Walmart offers grocery pickups at hundreds of locations across the country. Both stores currently dwarf the size of Whole Foods in terms of retail locations. Walmart has over 4,700 stores in the US, while Target has over 1,800,
Best tablets Buying Guide: Welcome to What Hi-Fi?’s round-up of the best tablets you can buy in 2020.
Tablets are bigger than smartphones (just) but less capable than laptops (just). If you’re thinking of buying one, you need to ask yourself a few questions.
What screen size do you want? Bigger-screened tablets make films, photos and TV shows look more impressive and are better suited to gaming, but they’re heavier, less portable and usually more expensive.
Which operating system are you after? Android is more open than iOS, but it’s not quite as slick or simple an ecosystem. Or are you happy with Amazon’s FireOS? Members of Amazon Prime might well be, but if you rarely shop at the retail giant, you’ll likely find it unsuitable and downright irritating.
How much storage do you need? Android devices usually come with slots for memory cards so you can add in extra storage, which could be useful if you’ve an extensive library of films, music and photos.
The best tablet for you will come down to how you want to use it. If you’re gaming, you’ll want one with tons of power and long battery life, while if you’re only sending the occasional email, you can save yourself some money and get yourself a cheaper model.
We’ve rounded up the best 2020 tablet choices so you can find your perfect partner. With models big and small, cheap and pricey, there’s sure to be something that fits your needs.
1. Apple iPad (2020)
The 8th generation iPad is much the same, but better than before.
It’s the new iPad! Or is it? Because not only does the new model look identical to its predecessor, it has nigh-on the same specs, too. There’s the same 10.2in retina display, same 8MP rear and 1.2MP front camera array, and more or less the same specifications – 3GB RAM, 32GB and 128GB storage options, and a 10-hour battery life. Even the Silver, Gold and Space Grey finishes carry over.
So what is new? Apple has upgraded the processor – inside you’ll find the A12 Bionic, which is the same chip powering the iPhone XS, 2019 iPad Air and fifth-generation iPad Mini. It’s not the newest Apple chip, but still delivers a 40 per cent speed boost on the previous iPad with twice the graphics performance. Despite that, the new iPad has a cheaper launch price than its predecessor.
The screen isn’t drastically better than the 7th Gen’s, but it doesn’t need to be. It still does a fine job of rendering images, with a punchy yet natural colour palette, sharply defined detail, and sleek smoothness. And the audio is still typically Apple, being neutrally toned, detailed and dynamic, but with a touch more clarity.
Not a huge improvement on the 7th Gen, then, but a nice update to keep the iPad at the top of the tablet pile.
On paper, the iPad Air is a tricky sell: the standard iPad is cheaper, the iPad Mini is smaller and the iPad Pro is higher-specced for professionals. It’s not even the thinnest iPad available. So why should you buy it?
Because it’s one of the best tablets Apple makes, which makes it one of the best tablets on the market. Its screen is better than the entry-level model, it’s bigger than the Mini and cheaper than the Pro. If you want a device for consuming content rather than creating it, and like the big screen/less portable tradeoff, it’s nigh-on the perfect tablet.
The HDR-compatible screen is stunning, and while its pixel density is a little lower than the iPad Mini, the display itself is a lot bigger. It depends on personal preference, but in our view, the Air is the better device for content consumption.
The speakers could be better placed (our hands tended to block one when watching in landscape orientation), but they have plenty of oomph. And when delivered to a quality pair of wireless headphones (which is likely to be the most common usage), the audio sounds superb.
If you want a tablet for movies and music on the go, you’ll struggle to beat this.

3. Apple iPad Mini (2019)
Under-the-skin improvements make the latest Mini even better than before.
Apple’s dinkiest iPad actually offers the highest pixel-per-inch density of all of its tablets and has a few features that are missing from other models: notably, HDR video.
The iPad Mini’s form makes it the perfect portable cinema. At 7.9in, the screen is significantly more cinematic and immersive than that of even the biggest iPhone, the 12 Pro Max, which measures 6.7in. That 21 per cent increase in display real estate is the equivalent of going from a 55in to a 65in TV. At the same time, the iPad Mini remains lighter and more portable than its bigger siblings.
Inside is the A12 Bionic chip, which you’ll also find in the iPhone XS and XR, and storage options come at 64GB and 256GB, with no other choice. The front-facing camera has been given a big boost but the rear lens stays the same.
Ultimately, this iPad Mini is excellent with video, and the screen looks even more gorgeous than the rest of the iPad range. It’s bright and punchy, with distinctive highlights and plenty of detail in the shadows. The image really pops, making it a joy to watch. The sound is tops too, boasting bags of dynamism and detail.
For a small tablet, it makes a big impression.

4. Amazon Fire HD 10 (2019)
The HD 10 is one of the best tablets out there for the money.
Improving on a previous What Hi-Fi? Award-winner was always going to be a tall task, especially without raising the price. But Amazon has cracked it with the latest version of the HD10. So what’s new? There’s a faster processor, a more powerful front camera, USB-C charging (rather than micro-USB), support for higher-capacity microSD cards, and, of course, support for Amazon Alexa.
When it comes to TV and movies, colours are bright, tonally accurate and vibrant, while blacks are inky, dark and detailed. The screen’s 16:10 aspect ratio in landscape mode is remarkably easy to get used to, particularly if you’re accustomed to Apple tablets.
The HD 10’s ‘Dolby Atmos’ integrated dual stereo speakers are somewhat optimistically branded but the sound with music and films is convincing and emotive, with plenty of detail across the frequencies and a pleasing, realistic musical build.
As long as you’re happy to use Amazon’s apps, this remains a bargain buy tablet.

5. Apple iPad 7th Generation
Sacrifices have been made in the name of affordability, but the iPad remains an excellent tablet.
You might have presumed that the iPad Mini would be the most affordable tablet in Apple’s range, however, that honour actually goes to the standard iPad, now in its 7th generation (it’s even cheaper now that it’s been superseded by the 8th gen model). It is missing some tech featured in the Mini but does come with the bonus of the Smart Connector, which allows the 7th Generation iPad to be connected to Apple’s Smart Keyboard (neither the previous model nor the Mini can be connected).
The iPad’s IPS screen has increased in size to 10.2in and resolution has been increased to maintain the pixel density of 264 ppi. It lacks the laminate layer, anti-reflective coating, True Tone (which automatically adjusts colours and brightness to match ambient lighting) and wide colour support of other tablets. And this is the only iPad in the current range that doesn’t support HDR. It’s also the only model that doesn’t have one of Apple’s newer processors. Instead, the A10 Fusion chip of the outgoing model has been carried over.
When it comes to picture and sound, it has the supremely natural colour balance for which Apple devices are renowned. There’s excellent detail and definition, too, and motion is handled exceptionally well. The iPad Mini pips it with a little more punch and deeper blacks but it’s still a good watch. Audio performance is strong. There’s weight, solidity and dynamic variation here that other tablets, including the current iPad Mini, can’t match.
Undoubtedly sacrifices have had to be made to deliver a large screen at a low price. But Apple’s least impressive tablet is still an impressive tablet.

6. Amazon Fire 7 (2017)
Those on a budget can’t really go wrong with the Fire 7.
If you’re on a tight budget, Amazon’s tablets are always worth a look. And no more so than the Fire 7 – it’s exceptionally good value. As long as you don’t expect mind-blowing AV quality, you’ll be pleasantly surprised.
Amazon has given this model a warmer colour palette, making for more realistic skin tones, and as long as you don’t go nitpicking for detail and contrast ratios, it’s perfectly watchable (especially for kids’ cartoons, which we suspect will be its main use). The sound is nicely balanced and suitably detailed, too. And because it’s an older model, its already cheap price is now discounted. Buy buy buy!

7. Apple iPad Pro 10.5in
Powerful, great to use, and capable of excellent video.
Content creators will want an iPad Pro – this is a machine made for creating, while the standard iPad is built for consuming. As such, it’s a little over-powered if all you want it for is watching movies and playing the odd game.
Not that you’ll have a bad time – far from it. The screen is ridiculously sharp and bright, and at this size, films are an absolute treat. It sounds pretty great too, balancing dialogue with the soundtrack nicely and automatically adjusting for the best sound depending whether it’s in portrait or landscape mode.
Sure, you probably don’t need one. But if you can afford it, why wouldn’t you?
This tablet was great value at its original price, so now it’s available for less, it’s an absolute steal. Like other Amazon tablets, its bright colour schemes are more cheap and cheerful than sleek and sophisticated, but that’s no bad thing if you just want a tablet for occasional use around the house (or to let the kids run wild with). Its screen has a natural palate and plenty of detail to get your teeth into, while audio playback is pretty decent for casual listening. Another great value tablet from Amazon.

9. Lenovo Yoga Tab 3 8in
A few minor bugbears aside, the Yoga Tab 3 is a budget tablet worth considering.
This might be a budget tablet, but it feels much more expensive than it is. The spine is much thicker than the rest of it, with good cause – it houses a rotatable 8MP camera that can be positioned to be rear- or front-facing.
There’s also a metal kickstand to help prop it up in its many poses (it’s not called Yoga for nothing).
The screen might lack a bit of detail, but the sound more than makes up for it, with plenty of expression and balance on offer.

10. Samsung Galaxy Tab S3
This Galaxy Tab is good, but not quite out of this world.
This premium tablet comes with the S Pen, which is Samsung’s stylus. Images on screen look so sharp you could cut yourself on them, while motion is handled with aplomb. The only slight niggle with the screen is colour reproduction, which tends to be more bold than natural. But you get superior sound, which you can tweak to your heart’s content, and played right, you’ll get noticeably more detail and dynamism from music. Dolby Atmos also comes as standard.

The new generation of Google Chromecast which, however, sees a fundamental change: the introduction of Google TV. We will therefore have a renewed interface, a remote control and an assistant that will allow us to help us search for content. Let’s see how it works.
by Bruno Mucciarelli published 20 October 2020 , at 11: 01 in the Audio Video channel Google
Arrives on the market and displaces a bit? all for how it has changed and above all for how fast it is. Let’s talk about the new Google Chromecast with Google TV which already from the name actually makes us understand the main change in this new generation: the accessory becomes a real alternative to Amazon’s Fire TV Stick also seen the more or less similar price. In this case, therefore, it is no longer a simple and “ poor ” dongle from which to transmit all the images or videos from the smartphone or tablet to the TV.
Here we have a remote control , we always have a small device ready to be joined to the TV via HDMI and we also have the Google Assistant which will help us, as we will see, in the search for content among the various streaming services and beyond. Yes, because the new generation Chromecast allows the installation of Android apps just like with the Google TVs on the market.
Basically we are faced with a real set top box with Google TV in great shape since the interface changes and characterizes that which will be the fulcrum of this device. In this case we have a complete system that we did not have before and which above all allows a more complete interaction with the user. As mentioned there is a new design (even if he will hide behind the TV), three new colors and above all the possibility of reproducing the contents in 4K HDR but also with Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos . Potential that for a simple dongle from 21 ?? they are not just and that will allow you to transform a simple TV maybe 4K but from a few years ago into an efficient complete smart TV.
UNBOXING and OFFER
Chromecast with Google TV is offered to the public at a price of 69. 99 ?? and arrives in Italy in three different colors: Ice White, Peach and Sky Blue. E ?? this is the first real difference with the past generation which instead had been made in black without any design prerogative. Here Google has decided to customize it, making it more aesthetically acceptable even if then the dongle in most cases will almost always be placed on the back of the TV.
In the sales box we find everything. We clearly find the Chromecast dongle and we also find the remote control that we will see is very well done especially in size and buttons. They are both placed a small canvas bag which is actually the first time we see for a Google product and beyond. In addition to this we find a fairly long cable with double USB-C output and the classic small wall power supply.
DESIGN: the remote control is super convenient
The aesthetic change of the new Chromecast with Google TV is even if it is not exaggerated. The device flattens even more but above all it finds in the curves a sense of a design that is certainly more graceful than the first generation created by Google. The dimensions in particular are minimum with a slightly circular form factor with a small flattened cable joined directly to the central body. Below the cable has an HDMI port for direct connection with the TV while in the opposite lower part there is a USC-B port for power supply. Flat side and with very minimal thickness where a status LED is present and a reset button in case of problems.
Another novelty of the new Chromecast with Google TV concerns the presence of the remote control which makes the dongle a real TV box. Small and completely in matching polycarbonate with the actual Chromecast. IS?? really well done with a large ring very slippery for the finger and with a central button that allows interactions with the TV. There are also big buttons below the bezel. The one to go back, the one to activate Google Assistant, the one to immediately return to the Home and the one to mute the ??audio. Finally there are other two buttons concerning YouTube and Netflix and which therefore allow you to immediately enter the application of the two streaming services. Finally, at the bottom, smaller, the button for turning the Chromecast on and off and the button for the output ports. There is also a volume rocker on the side of the remote control that allows you to raise or lower the volume during playback.
On a technical level Chromecast with Google TV has a AMLogic S processor 905 X3 which is nothing but a Quad-Core processor that is assisted by 2GB of RAM and with one 8GB internal storage that from the settings we see that we do not have completely available indeed actually without installing non-default apps we are faced with 2.4GB of space remaining. Not much if we are going to install Android apps. The RAM is absolutely sufficient for run the interface quickly and therefore everything that entails without lag, delays or other anomalous situations. Everything moves smoothly and quickly as well as the start of the streaming contents which are replicated as soon as you start.
CONFIGURATION and USE: fast with Google Home
Let’s start first from the configuration of the Chromecast with Google TV which changes compared to the first and past generation. Here Google has concentrated in the last period to direct, rightly, all its devices in the Google Home hub. And here is that once the dongle is powered, it all mentions the need, to activate Chromecast, to go to the Google Home application on the smartphone.
L The installation wizard interface is immediate, simple and intuitive. Once you have opened the application on your smartphone, you will have to scan the QR Code with the relevant verification code, then answer some questions such as scanning the Wi-Fi network, activating the remote control, the volume and the power button. At this point the Chromecast will install the default applications and will turn on once everything is completely done.
You will then find a new graphic interface which somehow resembles that of Amazon’s Fire TV. A panel that sorts all the contents of the various streaming applications and more, because it distinguishes the sections based on movies, TV series or other. At the top we find the bar with the various sections: Search, Home, App and Collection.
Search for: allows users to search all types of multimedia content in the Chromecast with Google TV. Here are suggestions for activating voice search using ad hoc phrases. But there are also some banners that allow you to identify themed films such as romantics, thrillers or documentaries and more.
Home: is the real home of the Chromecast. Here we find everything, from the applications we have decided to install, to the suggestions that Google machine learning will offer us for multimedia content between the various applications. Not only because we will also find more themed suggestions. Here the first sore point because just on the suggestions we find only movies and TV series concerning Netflix, YouTube, Amazon Prime and Disney +. No other service is offered in the suggestions and therefore we will not find Rai Play or even Infinity content. A shame because it is clear that such a comfortable incomplete function does not allow you to get the most from the Chromecast. It may take some time for Google to implement the other applications as well.
App: is the section that allows you to group all the applications that are available to be installed or that are have already been installed. A kind of Android app drawer which also sees suggestions by type of app or other. Here we really find everything and the assortment is really complete with gaming apps that can be installed (if there is storage space left) and played without problems thanks to the connection via Bluetooth with any controller.
Collection: is the last section of the Chromecast where all the content that has been purchased by the user. They can be easily selected and therefore also easily viewed.
In the Home therefore it is possible to find any type of multimedia content. In this case, among those suggested it is possible to easily see from the preview the streaming service in which the content is present (so if Netflix or other), the percentage of reliability with your tastes and above all whether the content is free or paid. In the event that the content is paid and therefore to be rented or purchased for viewing, a padlock will appear next to the streaming service and by entering the card the cost will be displayed and you can still proceed with the purchase.
Settings are well divided into sections and also very full of options. In this case the user can find:
Network and Internet: where it will have all the information regarding the network and internet connection.
Account and access: will contain all the data regarding the account with which the access was made and here it is also possible to add an additional account.
Privacy: section dedicated to user privacy. There are here the various sections of the geolocation but also the use and diagnostics then the ads and the privacy regarding the Google assistant.
Display and audio: is perhaps the most important section because it allows you to discover that the Chromecast allows advanced display settings with the ability to allow game mode and push content up to 4K in HDR with 60 Hz . Too bad the absence of Google Stadia which could somehow be a very winning weapon. At the audio level it is possible to manually choose the formats with Dolby Atmos in Dolby Digital Plus, AAC and also Dolby Digital or Dolby Digital Plus.
App: complete view of all applications installed with their weight and their permissions.
System: all the information on the Chromecast system with accessibility, Date and Time but also the language, keyboard and memory. Here you can also choose what to replicate during the so-called Ambient Mode, that is, if during standby the Chromecast starts Google Photos with the playback of the uploaded photos, Art Gallery with images of works of art selected by Google or even Experimental with new ones contents.
Remote controls and accessories: And here who knows that Google will not add access to Google Stadia in the future.
The operation of the Chromecast with Google TV is always very fluid in the steps between an application and the Home. We have never had a problem opening applications but we have not had problems with sudden delays or crashes of services either. The processor used obviously allows you to play 4K and HDR without problems, where for HDR it clearly means Dolby Vision and HDR 10. Streaming apps like Netflix and Amazon Prime Video are replicated in 4K Dolby Vision as well as Youtube which comes out in 4K HDR.
You can also use Google As sistant with voice control even if this, at least in this first phase, fails to understand us at 100% always and above all not manages to completely cover the results on all applications present. Normal given that such a machine learning job still requires an important programmatic effort. In fact it is possible to ask Google for everything , from time information to more with a response from the TV. Clearly the most interesting part concerns the requests for films or TV series. You can ask for the title of a movie, the reproduction of a TV series or even by genre such as an action movie or even be suggested by artificial intelligence.
It is also possible to download music applications and therefore with the voice it is also possible to ask to play music of all kinds. And then there is the Google Assistant ecosystem: the Chromecast allows you to set the temperature of a heating or cooling system with this type of support, or turn down or raise the lights of a room or create reminders. Google Assistant will respond to everything as the other devices of the Google Home ecosystem do.
CONCLUSIONS
The Chromecast with Google TV is all of this. It changes considerably from what we have seen up to now. It changes because there is now a remote control and because above all there is Google TV with its own precise graphic interface, in step with the times and capable of making itself useful and comfortable especially as an aggregator of apps and services. There is then the Google Assistant that allows you to have voice control of the commands and that
As Humax picks up the What Hi-Fi? Award for the best non-subscription set-top box for four years, we were beginning to wonder if the company was just kicking back and resting on its laurels. But it appears not – the company has just launched the first-ever Android TV-powered 4K recorder with Freeview Play.
The Humax Aura can be seen as a PVR or a Chromecast with benefits. Its Android TV system means it comes chocked with all Google has to offer on the media streaming front, i.e. Google Assistant voice control, plus access to more than 20,000 apps from the Google Play store and the ability to easily cast Chromecast-supported apps from your phone, tablet or laptop to your TV screen.
On the set-top box side of things are 70+ channels available courtesy of Freeview Play, space for up to 1000 hours of storage, and enough digital tuners that you can record up to four programmes at once while watching a fifth.
It will play hi-res audio up to 24-bit/192 kHz, as well as Dolby Atmos and DTS:X 3D audio formats, through its HDMI port.
But the big jump for the Humax Aura, compared to the multi-Award-winning Humax FVP-5000T PVR, is its ability to record 4K HDR content. The pairing of Freeview Play and Android TV also means that there should be fewer app gaps with the likes of All 4 and, hopefully, Britbox all present and correct alongside big hitters such as Disney+, Amazon Prime Video and BT Sport.
Another handy addition is the Kids’ Zone, an area with children-safe material – including timed content.
The Humax Aura is available from November and comes in two sizes – 1TB (£249) and 2TB (£279).

Best Samsung TVs Buying Guide: Welcome to What Hi-Fi?’s guide to the best Samsung TVs you can buy in 2020.
Obviously it makes sense to shop around when buying a new TV. But if you’ve previously owned a Samsung and want to stick with what you know, there are some impressive screens out there.
From monster sets to more moderately-sized models, from very affordable to very expensive, Samsung has TVs to suit all tastes, spaces and budgets.
Before you lay down your cash, there are a few things to consider. 4K and HDR will improve the picture quality drastically, but only when fed compatible content, so check your source. And do remember that no Samsung sets support Dolby Vision – instead they feature Samsung’s own rival format, HDR10+.
Samsung was also the first to sell 8K sets in the UK. While there’s still no 8K content currently available, they do upscale 4K content using Samsung’s processing tech, and generally do it very well.
Then there’s which size to go for. Measure where you’ll put it and see which size set will suit you best. Bigger isn’t always better – if it towers over your sofa, you might need to reconsider.
You should also check the small print for things such as the number of HDMI and USB sockets. While these details might seem relatively minor, they make all the difference when it comes to getting set up.
Finally, consider whether you want a brand new 2020 set or an outgoing 2019 model. It might be obvious that you’d want a new model, but you’ll likely make a big saving if you go for a discounted 2019 TV. Here’s how you distinguish one from the other: Samsung’s 2019 models are from the ‘R’ range, so look for an ‘R’ at the end of the model number if it’s a QLED or an ‘RU’ in the middle if it’s an LCD. 2020 TVs have a ‘T’ instead.
QLED TV: Samsung’s next-gen TV tech explained
Which 2020 Samsung QLED TV should you buy?
1. Samsung QE55Q90T
Samsung’s top 4K model for 2020 is punchy, feature-packed and good value.
SPECIFICATIONS
Screen size: 55in (also available in 65in, 75in) | Type: QLED | Backlight: direct LED | Resolution: 4K | HDR formats supported: HDR10, HLG, HDR10+ | Operating system: Tizen | HDMI inputs: 4 | ARC/eARC: eARC | Optical output: Yes | Dimensions (hwd, without stand): 71 x 123 x 3.5cm
Reasons to Buy
Brilliantly bright and punchy
Superb operating system
Improved motion and sound
Reasons to Avoid
Slightly exaggerated colours
OLEDs offer better blacks
The Samsung Q90T is a slightly tricky proposition. It’s the top 4K TV in Samsung’s 2020 TV range, but as a result of the company’s increased focus on 8K models, it’s also less of a flagship model than last year’s Q90R.
Whether you consider the Q90T to be the true successor to the Q90R or not, it is a better TV overall. It has a more natural balance, significantly better motion and a much-improved sound system. It’s true that it doesn’t go quite as bright or quite as black but, in fairness to Samsung, the Q90T is also more aggressively priced.
More important than how it fares against its discontinued sibling, though, is how it fares against similarly priced 2020 TVs such as the LG OLED55CX and Philips 55OLED805. These sets go blacker and, in the case of the LG, produce brighter highlights in otherwise dark images, but the Samsung is vastly punchier with almost everything you watch and images pop from the screen in a way that OLEDs still can’t match. It also has the best, most app-packed operating system by quite a margin, and a feature set that will keep it relevant for years to come.
There’s no doubt that the Samsung Q90T is an excellent TV, and you certainly shouldn’t discount it for not being an OLED or not having as many dimming zones as its ‘predecessor’.

2. Samsung UE43TU7100
A strikingly good performance-per-pound proposition.
This is one of the cheapest 4K TVs that Samsung currently offers. But fear not, it still boasts Samsung’s core performance and feature set, at a smaller size and a lower price. In short, it’s pretty much the best cheap TV you can buy.
Most 43in TVs offer about a tenth of the features of a bigger set, but not this one. The Tizen operating system is identical to that found on pricier sets, with the same winning UI and stacked app selection. It’s 4K, naturally, HDR formats are well catered for (with the exception of Dolby Vision, which no Samsung sets support), and it supports Auto Low Latency Mode, which switches the TV to game mode when it detects a gaming signal. That’s a feature missing from many much pricier sets, such as the 48in Sony in the top spot on this list.
The contrast ratio isn’t as impressive as an OLED or QLED TV, of course, but that’s to be expected. The blacks are actually surprisingly deep for a TV this affordable, and there’s a hefty amount of punch. The TU7100 is a sharp and detailed performer, too, and it handles motion with a good balance of smoothing and authenticity. It’s an excellent picture performance for a TV of this size, and you’d have to spend a fair bit more to get a significant improvement.

3. Samsung UE55TU8000
The new TU8000 represents exceptional value for money.
SPECIFICATIONS
Screen size: 55in (also available in 43in, 50in, 65in, 75in and 82in) | Type: LCD | Backlight: edge LED | Resolution: 4K | HDR formats supported: HDR10, HLG, HDR10+ | Operating system: Tizen | HDMI inputs: 4 | ARC/eARC: eARC | Optical output: Yes | Dimensions (hwd, without stand): 71 x 123 x 6cm
Reasons to Buy
Brilliant HDR picture
Bags of tonal detail
Punchy colours
Reasons to Avoid
Not particularly bright
Uninspiring sound
Samsung’s 8-series has traditionally been positioned just below the company’s glamorous range-topping QLEDs. In the past, it has proven to be the sweet spot where picture quality and price intersect to maximum effect. And so it proves once more.
The TU8000 is astonishingly good value. For comparatively very little money you’re getting a 55-inch TV that performs brilliantly, particularly with HDR content, and boasts the best, most app-laden operating system available at any price.
It’s sound is only so-so and it’s lacking the outright brightness and next-gen HDMI features of its premium siblings, but it’s still undeniably brilliant for the money.

4. Samsung UE50TU8500
A great 4K TV for those on a tight budget.
SPECIFICATIONS
Screen size: 50in (also available in 43in, 55in and 65in) | Type: LCD | Backlight: edge LED | Resolution: 4K | HDR formats supported: HDR10, HLG, HDR10+ | Operating system: Tizen | HDMI inputs: 3 | ARC/eARC: eARC | Optical output: Yes | Dimensions (hwd, without stand): 64 x 112 x 5.7cm
Reasons to Buy
Deep, detailed blacks
Solid 4K
Exhaustive app selection
Reasons to Avoid
Slightly red colour balance
This is the price where TVs tip over from budget to mid range. And this set is the new best in class.
The feature set is very impressive, with ALLM, eARC, 4K and three formats of HDR supported. There’s no VRR (Variable Refresh Rate), but at this price, that’s hardly surprising. The Tizen OS is the same as seen on Samsung’s flagship TVs, which means a slick user interface and apps galore.
It comes with Samsung’s standard remote, plus its One Remote, which is more ergonomic and has a stripped-back selection of buttons that cover all of the bases. Voice controls are handled by Amazon’s Alexa or Samsung’s Bixby personal assistants, with Google Assistant due to land soon via a firmware update.
Picture-wise, it blows most of the similarly priced competition out of the water, with deeper blacks and bright white highlights. On the motion side of things, it displays a satisfyingly natural degree of smoothing, and manages to dig up plenty of detail. At this price, there really is no competition.

5. Samsung QE75Q950TS
Makes the most compelling case for 8K TV yet.
SPECIFICATIONS
Screen size: 75in (also available in 65in and 85in) | Type: QLED | Backlight: not applicable | Resolution: 8K | HDR formats supported: HDR10, HLG, HDR10+ | Operating system: Tizen | HDMI inputs: 4 | ARC/eARC: eARC | Optical output: Yes | Dimensions (hwd, without stand): 81 x 143 x 1.5cm
Reasons to Buy
Brilliantly sharp, detailed 4K
Bright, punchy and vibrant
Near-flawless feature set
Reasons to Avoid
No Dolby Vision
Local dimming peculiarities
Only one HDMI 2.1 socket
We’ll just come out and say it: you don’t need an 8K TV. 8K content is thin on the ground, so for the most part, you’ll be paying for something you don’t use. On the other hand, if you’re happy to spend the money, an 8K set could be a sound investment – it’ll also play 4K content, after all, and if you don’t want to buy another TV when 8K takes off, paying once could be the smart option.
The Samsung QE75Q950TS is not only a wise investment for 8K, it also manages to improve on 4K content.
That’s thanks to Samsung’s Quantum Processor 8K and its 8K AI Upscaling feature, which succeed in making non-8K content look better than ever: watching a 4K Blu-ray, we can’t recall a sharper 4K picture, with nothing looking artificially enhanced or exaggerated – it simply pops from the screen more than we’ve previously seen.
Blacks are deep and insightful, while motion is handled with aplomb. Away from the picture, the TV itself is stylish, super slim, and the bezels are amazingly thin. It sounds pretty great, too. Ticks all the boxes, then.

6. Samsung QE55Q80T
This 2020 TV is an excellent performance-per-pound proposition
SPECIFICATIONS
Screen size: 55in (also available in 49in, 65in, 75in, 85in) | Type: QLED | Backlight: direct LED | Resolution: 4K | HDR formats supported: HDR10, HLG, HDR10+ | Operating system: Tizen | HDMI inputs: 4 | ARC/eARC: eARC | Optical output: Yes | Dimensions (hwd, without stand): 71 x 123 x 5.4cm
Reasons to Buy
Excellent contrast and colours
Three-dimensional and detailed
Solid, spacious sound
Reasons to Avoid
Occasionally overcooks colours
Slightly exaggerates film grain
This new Samsung QLED sets a formidable benchmark for mid-range TVs in 2020, offering a high-end performance at a fairly mid-range price.
The Q80T looks much like any other Samsung QLED, although it is a little bit chunkier than the Q90T. There’s nothing wrong with the specs of the connections, either: the four HDMI inputs support the key features of HDMI 2.1, such as eARC, VRR and HFR.
4K HDR streaming is available via the likes of Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Disney+ and Apple TV+. In fact, the app support is superb, with pretty much every video and music streaming site you can think of on offer here.
A simple TV to set-up when it comes to getting the best possible picture, the Q80T ultimately delivers a brilliantly dynamic image with deep black levels, excellent contrast and neutral but vibrant colours. While there are rare occasions when watching HDR that a skin tone seems slightly overcooked, the colour balance is a great strength overall, while motion is handled confidently and smoothly throughout our testing. And while we’d recommend a soundbar or some speakers, Samsung’s Object Tracking Sound technology provides open, engaging audio.
This is the first mid-range 55-inch TV we’ve seen in 2020, but the Samsung QE55Q80T sets a formidable benchmark thanks to its dynamic and solid picture, substantial sound and thorough feature set.

7. Samsung QE65Q95T
It’s perhaps not the flagship TV we were expecting, but the Q95T is still a cracking set
SPECIFICATIONS
Type: QLED | Backlight: Direct LED | Resolution: 4K | Operating system: Tizen | HDR support: HDR10, HDR10+, HLG | HDMI inputs: 4 | USBs: 3 | Optical output: Yes | Dimensions (hwd, without stand): 83 x 145 x 3.5cm
Reasons to Buy
Rich, solid, natural picture
Very good motion
Improved sound
Reasons to Avoid
‘Predecessor’ was punchier
Brand new for 2020, the Q95T shares the top spot in Samsung’s 2020 4K TV range with the Q90T. The only differences between the two are that the Q95T gets a more stylish, metal remote and the One Connect system, which sees all connections (including power) routed through a separate box that can be easily hidden away.
Somewhat disappointingly, the Q95T and Q90T have fewer dimming zones and go less bright than the Q90R, but they’re otherwise better in every meaningful way. They deliver a richer, more solid and more natural picture, as well as better sound.
The Tizen operating system is largely unchanged, and that’s no bad thing. No other operating system has as much content or more quickly gets you to what you want to watch.
If you’re after Samsung’s top 4K model, the sensible money would be spend on the Q90T, but if you like the idea of extremely clever and neat One Connect solution, there’s nothing wrong with spending the extra money on the Q95T.

8. Samsung UE43RU7020
If the price is right, then this strong budget TV has to be considered.
SPECIFICATIONS
Type: LCD with edge LED backlight | Resolution: 4K | Operating system: Tizen | HDR support: HDR10, HDR10+, HLG | HDMI inputs: 3 | USB inputs: 2 | Optical output: Yes | Dimensions (hwd, without stand): 56 x 97 x 5.8cm
Reasons to Buy
Good HDR handling
Excellent smart platform
Strong detail and scaling
Reasons to Avoid
Unimpressive audio
Slight colour inconsistency
The Samsung UE43RU7020 is the smallest size of the cheapest range of Samsung’s 2019 current TVs. If you are strapped for cash but still want to buy an excellent, small(ish) screen, this is the one.
Black levels and detail are very good for a TV at this price – we’re not talking OLED standards, but this is no hazy production – and there’s good control of lighting. The 4K detail is good, too, and colours are natural if not quite of the richness Samsung is capable further up the food chain.
As a small, budget TV, the UE43RU7020 deserves to be taken seriously.

Samsung 2020 TV line-up: everything you need to know
(Pocket-lint) – Samsung’s main focus may be on 8K tellies these days, but given the current lack of content at that resolution, many are just more interested in a 4K alternative. The Q95T represents the top of the company’s QLED 4K line-up, while boasting many of the features found on the higher-end 8K models.
These features include a direct full-array backlight with local dimming, the latest AI-enhanced upscaling, an anti-reflection screen, Object Tracking Sound (OTS), gaming features, a One Connect box to keep cables out of sight, and the full Tizen OS with a comprehensive choice of streaming services.
Design, connections and control
One Connect Box
Wi-Fi; Bluetooth; AirPlay 2
Single fibre optic cable that includes power
4x HDMI inputs with eARC; 3x USB; Ethernet
The Samsung Q95T sports the company’s ‘boundless’ design, with a 2mm wide frame around the top and side edges of the chassis, and a slightly wider frame along the bottom. It’s impressively sleek, although not quite as cool as the 8K ‘infinity’ screen, where the image goes out to the edge.
Overall the QT95 is a stunning piece of industrial design, with a brushed metal outer edge, a textured rear panel, and an anti-reflection filter on the front. The build quality is excellent, and the whole set measures only 35mm deep, despite containing a direct full array LED backlight and six speakers.
The solid stand mirrors the panel’s sleek styling, and is angled forward to create the illusion the image is elegantly floating in space. The stand is finished in carbon silver, measures 300 x 280mm, and there’s 110mm of clearance if you’re planning to use a soundbar.
If you’d rather wall-mount the Q95T, there’s the optional ‘No-Gap’ bracket, while the included One Connect box allows the screen to be connected by a single thin cable, making installation mess-free. The TV comes with a nearly-invisible 10m cable, but an optional 15m version is also available.
The One Connect box houses four HDMI inputs, one of which (HDMI 3) supports eARC (which you can read more about here). One of HDMI inputs is capable of handling 4K/120Hz, VRR (variable refresh rate) and ALLM (auto low-latency mode), making this TV a great choice for gamers – unless you’re planning on buying both competing next-gen consoles.
There are also two USB 2.0 inputs, twin tuners for terrestrial and satellite broadcasts, a CI slot, an optical digital output, an ex link 3.5mm jack, and an Ethernet port. In terms of wireless connections, there’s Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and support for Apple AirPlay 2.
The are two remotes: a basic black version and a sleek metal zapper with an ergonomic shape that makes it comfortable to hold and easy to use with one hand. There’s a microphone for voice control, and direct access buttons for Netflix, Amazon and Rakuten TV.
Features: AI-enhanced imaging and next-gen support
High Dynamic Range (HDR) support: HDR10, HLG, HDR10+
Processing engine: Quantum 4K Processor with AI
100% of DCI-P3 and 1700nits of peak brightness
Anti-reflection screen and Ultra Viewing Angle
The Samsung Q95T boasts the 2020 iteration of the company’s Quantum Processor 4K. This uses AI-enhanced machine learning to deliver superior upscaling and image processing, as well as an Adaptive Picture mode to adjust the image on-the-fly – although the latter mode is best avoided in our opinion.
The Quantum Processor also analyses the audio signal and the TV’s location in the room to optimise the sonic performance. There’s Adaptive Sound+ (which Samsung describes as a real-time scene-by-scene analysis to identify sound type), along with Active Voice Amplifier for clearer dialogue, and Adaptive Volume that adjusts the volume based on content.
For 2020 Samsung has added Object Tracking Sound (OTS), which uses six speakers and 60W of amplification for a more immersive sonic experience. Along with the left and right speakers at the bottom, there are a pair of subs and additional speakers at the top for greater immersion.
There’s support for high dynamic range, specifically HDR10 and HDR10+, with dynamic metadata designed to tailor the performance on a scene-by-scene basis. The Q95T also supports HLG (hybrid log-gamma), which is the new broadcast standard used by the BBC and others.
Samsung claims a peak brightness of 2,000 nits and 100 per cent coverage of DCI-P3 colour, but in our actual measurements the peak brightness topped out at 1,700 nits and the colour gamut reached 94 per cent of DCI-P3 – which is still really good, just not as claimed.
The Q95T includes a couple of features first introduced in 2019: an anti-reflection screen and Ultra Viewing Angle technology. The former is designed to reduce reflections from ambient light in the room, and works well, making this an effective TV for daytime viewing.
The Ultra Viewing Angle tech addresses an inherent limitation in the the VA panels that Samsung uses in its QLED TVs. This innovation significantly reduces the colour and contrast drop-off experienced as you view the TV at more extreme viewing angles, and proves highly effective.
The Q95T uses a direct LED backlight with Quantum Dot filters that produce brighter and purer colours, thus expanding the colour gamut. There’s also local dimming, and while Samsung’s algorithm is highly effective, we counted 120 independent zones, which is fewer than the previous model.
Samsung has also added a Filmmaker Mode, which is designed to deliver an image that represents the content creator’s original intentions. It uses brightness and colour settings to match the industry standards, and turns off any unnecessary processing or frame interpolation.
Picture quality: An impressive all-rounder
The Samsung Q95T might not be quite as well-specified as the previous Q90R, but the performance remains impressive. The TV delivers a clean and detailed image regardless of whether you’re watching standard dynamic range or HDR content, the black level delivery is solid, highlights are suitably bright, and colours pleasingly saturated.
The AI-enhanced image processing and upscaling is highly effective, even making standard definition content watchable. There are no obvious artefacts, although the lack of sharpness and clarity is obvious once you switch to the same programme in high definition. Working with higher resolution content, the processor is able to squeeze out every last pixel of detail.
When you feed the Q95T a 4K signal it’s able to really shine, revealing a beautiful presentation that’s bursting with fine detail, nuanced colours, and inky blacks. The local dimming is applied with remarkable skill, despite the reduced number of zones. As a result a dark show like The Haunting of Hill House remains clearly defined, and never descends into a morass of smudged greys.
Given its peak brightness this TV doesn’t need to tone map 1,000 nits content at all, but does an excellent job of mapping 4,000 nits content, ensuring there is detail in both the shadows and the highlights. The local dimming algorithm also delivers bright highlights without any noticeable blooming, which enhances the overall experience.
The use of Quantum Dots allows for a superior colour volume, even at high brightness, which allows the Q95T to take full advantage of the wider colour gamut used in HDR. A great example is Guardians of the Galaxy Vol.2, which is a riot of saturated colours that the Samsung renders with wonderful levels of detail.
The Q95T also impresses when it comes to motion handling, and with Picture Clarity settings turned off any 24p content looks smooth, with no judder or unwanted artefacts. The motion settings apply frame interpolation, resulting in smoothing, which can be useful when viewing sports; while the LED Clear Motion setting uses black frame insertion, darkening the image, but improving the motion.
The built-in apps produce some superb 4K and HDR images, and in the case of Amazon Prime there’s the added enhancement of HDR10+. The levels of detail and contrast are equally as impressive when watching Netflix, Apple TV+ and Disney+, and given all three of these apps use Dolby Vision it’s disappointing that the Q95T doesn’t support the format.
The Q95T offers numerous features aimed at the PS5 and Xbox Series X next-gen consoles. These include VRR (variable refresh rate) for syncing the TV’s refresh rate with the console’s frame rate, thus reducing tearing, along with support for 4K at 120Hz. Samsung’s QLED TVs also support AMD Freesync, but the company is still in the process of certifying Nvidia G-Sync.
There’s ALLM (auto low-latency mode) for automatically detecting a console and selecting the Game mode, resulting in a blink-and-you-miss-it input lag of just 9.4ms. However this can result in a degree of flicker, so the Game Motion Plus is designed to smooth out motion. This feature is effective, but in doing so it does increase the lag to 22.5ms – although that’s still a very fast response time.
Finally there’s a multi-view mode that allows you to watch two different sources simultaneously. You can adjust the size of the two picture-in-picture screens, change their relative position and choose which has audio priority. This feature isn’t necessarily game-specific, but it’s useful for gaming while watching YouTube tutorials.
Smart features: Comprehensive platform
Tizen OS
Alexa/Google Assistant/Bixby built-in
Samsung’s smart platform is based around the Tizen operating system, and remains a slick, intuitive and easy-to-navigate interface. There’s a launcher bar along the bottom and a second layer that provides faster access to the video streaming services.
When it comes to streaming apps there’s a comprehensive choice, with Netflix, Amazon, Now TV, Rakuten, YouTube, and all the UK TV catch-up services. Samsung also supports Disney+ and AppleTV+, giving its platform a full house of video-related apps.
The Universal Guide helps you keep track of all this content by presenting it all via a user-friendly interface. It then uses AI machine learning to analyse your viewing habits and create a single ‘For You’ page with personalised content to suit your tastes.
New for 2020 is the Digital Butler, which allows for quick and easy connection by automatically scanning for nearby devices, detecting them and then representing all of them in an easy-to-understand graphical fashion.
The Q95T also offers the benefits of built-in smart assistants, with Samsung currently offering its own Bixby, along with Amazon Alexa. The company plans to add Google Assistant at some point, and you can even access Siri via Apple’s AirPlay 2.
The only annoying aspect of Samsung’s smart system is the requirement that you create a Samsung account when first setting-up the TV (assuming you don’t already have one). This blatant attempt to tie you into the company’s ecosystem is frustrating and time-consuming.
Sound quality: Object tracking sound
Object Tracking Sound (OTS)
Adaptive Sound+
Q Symphony
The Q95T’s integration of its six speakers is seamless, hidden behind a pattern of tiny holes in the outer edge of the TV cabinet. The sound quality is also impressive, with an open soundstage and plenty of power in the amplification.
When you first install the TV there’s a sound optimisation feature that sends out test tones and measures them using built-in microphones. This allows you to optimise the sonic performance depending on whether the TV is stand- or wall-mounted.
Object Tracking Sound doesn’t just involve more speakers, it also analyses the audio signal and uses sophisticated processing to align sounds with the location of specific images on the screen. It really works, creating an engaging experience with improved directionality and immersion.
There’s no on-board Dolby Atmos decoding, but the Q95T can send Atmos back via ARC from its internal apps to a supporting soundbar or AV receiver. Since it also supports eARC, the Q95T can even pass lossless audio back via HDMI to a supporting soundbar or AV receiver.
If you have a 2020 Samsung soundbar, you can also benefit from Q-Symphony which provides audio synergy with the TV. This feature enables the speakers in the soundbar to work in conjunction with the top speakers on the Q95T, resulting in an increased sense of immersion.
Anything missing?
As with all of Samsung’s TVs the Q95T doesn’t support Dolby Vision – an HDR format that uses dynamic metadata to deliver a more refined experience. There is support for HDR10+, which is similar, but there’s significantly more content available in Dolby Vision.
Unlike its predecessor the Q95T uses an 8-bit (FRC) panel, and it would appear Samsung is only using native 10-bit panels on its 8K line-up in 2020. While it’s a shame that a high-end 4K model isn’t 10-bit, the reality is you almost certainly won’t notice any difference with actual viewing material.
While we’re on the subject of Dolby, the Q95T also doesn’t include on-board Atmos object-based audio decoding. It’s a shame because with all those extra speakers for Object Tracking Sound, the results would be impressive. At least the Q95T can pass lossless Atmos back via eARC.
Samsung’s smart platform is undeniably comprehensive, but it doesn’t include Freeview Play. This isn’t really an issue because all the UK TV catch-up services are present and correct, but it does mean these aren’t integrated within the EPG (electronic programme guide).
Verdict
The Samsung Q95T proves to be an excellent all-round 4K performer, offering the benefits of QLED brightness and colour and many of the features found in the higher-end 8K models. This TV delivers a fantastic picture with both standard dynamic range and HDR, and thanks to a host of gaming features and an incredibly low input lag, it’s also ideal for hard-core gamers.
The inclusion of six speakers and Object Tracking Sound results in a TV that sounds really good, making for a nice change, while there are also useful features like eARC. In addition the smart platform is slick and responsive, plus it boasts every app you’ll ever likely need. In fact the only real complaint is Samsung’s continued refusal to embrace Dolby Vision.
The QT95 is a cost-effective choice for those not yet convinced by 8K. It is a downgrade on 2019’s 4K flagship, but it still offers many of the features found in the higher-end 8K range, while delivering cracking pictures and including support for the next-gen of consoles – making it a great choice for gamers.
Also consider
LG CX
This 4K OLED is similarly priced and offers an equally slick smart platform and comprehensive choice of apps. The picture quality is impressive, with effective AI upscaling, and while not as bright with HDR, the black levels are superior. The LG is also a gamer’s dream, and while there’s no HDR10+ support there is Dolby Vision, which is preferable.
(Pocket-lint) – Amazon has updated and redesigned its 10-inch Echo Show. Called the Echo Show 10, the third-generation device replaces the bulkier two-year-old predecessor with a new model that has a fresh look and even rotates to follow your around the room if you’re on a video call.
But how does it compare to the other Echo Show devices? Here we’re comparing the established Echo Show 5 and Echo Show 8 with the latest version – the Echo Show 10 released in late 2020, spec by spec and feature by feature.
There are a range a deals available on some Echo Show models for Prime Day:
Get the Echo Show 5 for $44.99 | Get the Echo Show 5 for £39.99
Get the Echo Show 8 for $64.99 | Get the Echo Show 8 for £59.99
What’s the same?
The Echo Show range is pretty similar in software capability, but it’s in terms of design that the devices have changed over the last year or so.
The Echo Show 5 and 8 are very similar in terms of design and capabilities – although there are some differences in terms of audio prowess as you’ll hear. The Echo Show 10 is now quite a different device and is ideal as a main Echo device in a family room or kitchen.
Of course, at the heart of each Echo device is Alexa, Amazon’s voice assistant that can help you with all the basics as well as more complicated stuff via the addition of Alexa Skills and automation via routines.
On-screen, Alexa has been a mixed bag so far, simply because she is voice-first. The interface that works alongside the touchscreen display has needed work and Amazon knows this – an improved interface is coming to Echo Show with the Echo Show 10. Since we haven’t been hands-on with it as yet, we’ll have to reserve judgment, but it seems improvements are on the way to all Echo Show devices.
Amazon is also powering up the Show, too, with support for Netflix in addition to the existing Amazon Prime Video and Hulu. In terms of video calling, you’ll also now get Zoom support (plus Amazon’s own Chime communication service for calling other Show devices) as well as the existing Skype. Group calling is also on the way. Of course, Alexa already supports numerous music services including Amazon Music, Apple Music, Spotify and Deezer.
Recipe support comes courtesy of Food Network Kitchen in the US and BBC Good Food in the UK.
In terms of design, all three devices now have a physical privacy shutter (with mic/camera off) and physical volume controls, while all are available in white (glacier) and dark grey (charcoal). The main body of each device is covered in fabric.
None of the devices support Wi-Fi 6, although they support 802.11ac (Wi-Fi 5) and A2DP support for streaming audio via Bluetooth.
What’s different?
Design
Echo Show 10: 251 x 230 x 172 mm. 2.6kg
Echo Show 8: 200 x 136 x 99 mm, 1.04kg
Echo Show 5: 148 x 86 x 73 mm, 410g
The Echo Show 10 has always been seen as a more of a room-filling entertainment device, while Show 5 and 8 are more bedside or desk devices. Indeed, Show 5 is more of a Echo Spot or alarm clock radio-esque device.
The Echo Show 5 and 8 are a trapezoid shape on the rear, whereas the new Show 10 looks more like an old iMac, with a ‘bulb’ or flattened sphere shape holding the screen. There’s a reason for that because the screen can rotate up to 175 degrees. If you’re on a video call, it’ll move as you do in order to keep you in the frame. However, the ’tilt’ of the screen is manually operated.
The main disappointment in terms of the design of the Echo Show 10 is that the display itself has relatively large bezels, but it has clearly been designed to hit a price point. That’s no different to any other Echo device.
Display
Echo Show 10: 10.1-inch HD touchscreen (1,280 x 800 resolution)
Echo Show 8: 8-inch HD touchscreen (1,280 x 800 resolution)
Echo Show 5: 5.5-inch touchscreen (960 x 480 resolution)
The Echo Show 10 has a 10.1-inch HD (not full HD) touchscreen display which appears to have the same 1,280 x 800 as the old 10-inch Echo Show. The lack of high resolution is a bit disappointing, but Amazon clearly hasn’t wanted to make its new Echo line up any more expensive than the predecessor device.
However, the resolution seems a lot more acceptable on the Echo Show 8 (compared to the same resolution screen as in last year’s Echo Show 10, that is). The Echo Show 5 understandable lags behind a little, but because of its diminutive size, the lower resolution doesn’t grate.
Hardware
Echo Show 10: MediaTek 8183 processor, Zigbee smart hub
Echo Show 8: MediaTek MT 8163 processor
Echo Show 5: MediaTek MT 8163 processor
This year, Show 10 makes the move to a MediaTek 8183 chip. The old device was Intel Atom-based. There’s also a second neural network processor as well as an ambient light sensor.
Show 10 has a built-in Zigbee smart hub like the new Echo, so you can now ask Alexa to discover new smart home devices providing they’re Zigbee compliant. The Echo 5 and 8 don’t have this.
The Echo Show 10 has a 13-megapixel front-facing camera which is a significant upgrade on the cameras used on the other devices – they’re a meagre single megapixel which is pretty poor.
Amazon Alexa calling and messaging: What is it, how does it work, and where can you use it?
Sound and speakers
Echo Show 10: two 1-inch tweeters and a 3-inch woofer
Echo Show 8: dual two-inch drivers (10W)
Echo Show 5: one 1.7-inch (4W)
Echo Show 10 clearly has better audio than the other two devices – it boasts a 2.1 system: two
(Pocket-lint) – The Amazon Fire TV range allows you to access and stream a variety of content, including Amazon’s own, but also through apps such as Netflix, Apple TV+, Disney+ and BBC iPlayer (but not Now TV).
As of late 2020, Amazon now has three HDMI streaming sticks and they all look pretty similar. So what’s the difference? That’s why you’re here and that’s what we’ll tell you.
Each stick plugs directly into your TV via HDMI and comes with a power adapter, HDMI extender (but not an HDMI cable), AAA batteries for the remote and a micro USB cable and plug for power.
All support dual-band, 802.11ac Wi-Fi on board (which is Wi-Fi 5, not Wi-Fi 6), and Amazon has made it possible for you to take the Fire TV Stick on holiday as it has found a way for you to input room and log-in details for hotel Wi-Fi.
There is a fourth Fire TV device available, the Fire TV Cube. However, it’s only really useful if you want to control a set-top box and your TV/soundbar with Alexa. And you’ll need to carefully check compatibility, too.
Fire TV Stick 4K
Prime Day UK deal: Get the Fire TV Stick for £29.99
Amazon’s top-end streaming stick represents great value for money – especially when compared to devices like the Apple TV 4K.
That doesn’t mean it’s a slouch in features or abilities. It can output video up to 4K Ultra HD resolution at 60 frames per second. It also has high dynamic range (HDR) support. That includes HDR10, Dolby Vision, HLG and HDR10+.
Dolby Atmos surround sound support is available for services like Netflix, which goes alongside the general 5.1 and 7.1 Dolby surround audio output plus HDMI Audio pass-through. Basically, it will play the best format possible, depending on the AV receiver, home cinema system, soundbar or even TV you plug it into.
An Alexa Voice Remote is included in the box. As with the main Fire TV Stick below, there are power and volume controls too, so you can control audio gear like a soundbar.
With the Alexa voice remote, you can access to the Alexa voice assistant in a similar way to an Amazon Echo device, except that you have to press the dedicated Alexa button on the remote as you talk.
That means you can find out the weather, sports results, and many other facts and nuggets of information. And as well as have them spoken to you in Alexa’s dulcet tones, you can see visual cards on-screen with supporting info.
Why buy? This is Amazon’s flagship device, and while it is small it is mighty in what it offers. There is plenty of 4K HDR content available these days, from Amazon and Netflix – also well represented here. If you have a compatible TV, this is the only option you should really consider, especially for the amazing price in comparison with similarly specified rivals.

Amazon Fire TV Stick (2020, 3rd generation)
The latest version of the original Fire TV Stick has upgraded hardware. Performance has been improved over the previous generation by as much as 50 percent thanks to new hardware including a quad-core processor, while it also now includes support for Dolby Atmos audio like the 4K stick alongside 5.1 and 7.1 Dolby surround audio output and HDMI audio pass-through.
Like the 4K Stick, a full Alexa Voice Remote is included in the box so there are power and volume controls too, so you can control audio gear like a soundbar. However, unlike the 4K Stick, it’ll still only support Full HD 1080p resolution rather than 4K.
Why buy? For those without a 4K TV but an Amazon Prime subscription, the standard Fire TV Stick is an inexpensive way to access a variety of content.
Amazon Fire TV Stick Lite
Amazon’s entry-level streaming stick is new but sits underneath the main Fire TV Stick. Like the main Fire TV Stick, it supports Full HD and has improved performance over the older 2019 version of the main stick thanks to better hardware. However, there is no Dolby Atmos support.
The key difference is the less powerful remote control – called Alexa Voice Remote Lite. There are no volume or mute buttons, so you can’t use it to control the sound of your TV and/or soundbar. There’s also no power button. It does, however, include Alexa voice control as you’d expect as well as a new Guide button.
Why buy? The cheapest way to get Alexa working through a TV and if you don’t have 4K, there’s not much reason not to choose this over the standard Fire TV Stick provided you don’t mind using another remote for volume.
(Pocket-lint) – Larian had been cranking out solid games in the Divinity series for good few years before its reputation skyrocketed with the release of Divinity 2: Original Sin – it struck gold with its combination of role-playing fun and devilishly organic combat.
Now the developer has been given the keys to the castle so pined-after by developers around the world – an official Dungeons and Dragons license and the long-awaited third entry in the Baldur’s Gate franchise. Each bringing enormous new pressure.
But from the early access build of Baldur’s Gate 3 that we’ve been playing, it’s looking like something special once again.
A new, old start
The first two Baldur’s Gate games are straightforwardly seminal in the canon of interactive roleplaying; enormous adventures that were different for each player that played them through, with a large cast of memorable characters and storylines to sink into.
Baldur’s Gate 2 might have come out all of 20 years ago, but gamers have been awaiting a third entry that whole time since, in hope rather than expectation. Giving the rights to Larian, after the screaming success of Divinity 2, was a decision that seemed so sensible that it was almost to good to be true.
The world of Dungeons and Dragons, the Forbidden Realms in which Baldur’s Gate is in fact just one of many major cities, is clearly one that Larian has been able to slip into pretty seamlessly. Any developer of top-down role-playing games will have done its time in D&D, after all.
Story-wise, things get off to a lively start with an absolutely bombastic opening cinematic that sets the scene aboard the tentacled ship of a Mindflayer, an unambiguosly evil squid-face that’s infected the player character with a little brain tadpole of their own.
After creating a character of your own, replete with multiple races to pick from and a range of delightfully modeled faces to add to them, you’ll escape the doomed ship in a frightful crash before setting out to get said tadpole out of your cranium before you’re turned into a mindless zombie.
It doesn’t take long to assemble a cast of companions whose aims align with your own, and you’ll soon be off exploring a large coastal region in the hopes of discovering how to help yourself and, down the line, the world, by hindering the Mindflayer’s machinations.
In this early access build all of Act 1 is playable, with two more to come over the next year or so, meaning there’s going to be an absolute wealth of content to get through eventually.
Dividing your time
Much like in Divinity 2, your time is spent in a few primary ways in Baldur’s Gate 3 – exploring, talking and fighting. You’ll walk around the large areas figuring out what lies where and who you might want to talk to.
You’ll engage in dialogue with those characters, receive quests and requests from them, and find out more about how you can get closer to de-tadpoling yourself, and, of course, you’ll periodically get into scraps and fights. The conversations are as good as Larian’s best work – scripted evocatively and universally voice acted to a really high standard. Being rid of text-based mute conversations, even from the most minor side-characters, makes for a real feeling of quality.
These battles play out in turnbased style, using D&D’s initiative system to get a turn order and letting you move your party around and attack enemies in turn. There’s a good amount of synergy to explore between abilities and elements, although it’s a little less unhinged than Divinity 2’s elemental combat.
Still, it’s engaging stuff that gets more and more challenging as you progress, and the satisfaction of pulling off an unlikely victory is well worth the time it takes to do so. It might take a little getting used to how brutal D&D’s dice-based combat can be if you have a run of bad luck, but once you’re in the swing of things it’s pretty straightforward.
The levels you’ll be fighting in, meanwhile, are Larian’s finest to date on the visual side, with gorgeous colour palettes and background details selling the reality of the situation beautifully. We’re playing on the PC from our mid-range build, and its XFX AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT GPU makes the most of Ultra settings to really maximise the impact of that scenery, with details that you’ll notice constantly in the background.
Cranking down to lower settings still leaves you with a pretty game, though, if a slightly less sharp one. Character models are similarly delightful, too, with expressive and empathetic faces and detailed, grounded armours and clothing textures. The animation of those models can occasionally be a little janky, though, especially in dialogue, and that’s one area we imagine will receive some touching up as the early access build develops.
Bug squashing
It’s worth zooming in on that side of things, though – Larian is doing early access in the true spirit of the system, here. This really is an in-progress build of the game, with hotfixes coming thick and fast to tie up bugs and improve elements, and that does mean a necessary dose of breakages.
You’ll see slightly bugged animations, or odd visual glitches like models not loading into cutscenes, and sometimes movement or even entire questlines will simply break either a little or completely. This means frequent saving is your best friend, and running multiple saves in case of progress loss is sensible too.
We don’t mention this as a criticism, but more as a warning. Larian is being nice and upfront about this side of things, so we don’t think it should surprise anyone, but nonetheless if you want a fully polished and bug-free experience, you should follow Larian’s advice and wait for the full 1.0 release, which is likely to arrive in late 2021 as things stand.

First Impressions
Until then, though, Baldur’s Gate 3 is looking like a delightful treat for PC gamers before the glut of next-gen console launches arrives. It’s got a deep adventure to offer with a range of companions that are impressivesly nuanced and fun to engage with, and combat that’ll keep you thinking.
Early access versions are a minefield, so you can’t really afford to come into Baldur’s Gate expecting a totally smooth time – that simply won’t happen. For now, though, there’s still a whole lot of adventurous fun to be had, and Larian’s world design has never looked so luminous and gorgeous.
