The announcement of the HP Reverb G2 had sparked a lot of hype in the virtual reality scene: For comparatively cheap 700 Euro it offers PC-VR with a resolution of 2160 × 2160 pixels per eye.
Immediately after putting it on, you will notice that the display of the G2 is beyond any doubt. The picture looks bright, clear and colorful. The HP headset uses the same lenses as the more expensive Valve Index VR glasses, but pairs them with higher-resolution LC displays – the index only shows 1440 × 1600 per eye. In terms of sharpness, the G2 has the lead, and we also noticed fewer reflections than with the Index. With the flight simulator Xplane, for example, the displays of a Cessna 172 can be read without having to look forward lean. The G2, however, draws the short straw in the field of view (FoV): While the Valve headset is one of the devices with the largest FoV on the market, the HP G2 only offers mediocre performance: The FoV is roughly on par with Oculus Quest (2) and HTC Vive.
HP also worked with Valve on the speakers and the “Ear Speakers” were taken over from the index. These direct the audio signal to the ear without touching it – this prevents “being locked in” when the headphones are closed, which many people find uncomfortable. The Valve audio system works almost scary well, at Half-Life: Alyx, several colleagues winced because the sound didn’t sound like game sound, but like real. Unlike the previous G1, there is no jack socket for connecting your own headphones.

The Irish Data Protection Authority (DPC) wants to take a decision on Facebook’s data transfer to the USA – and quickly. The process has been simmering for more than seven years. The voluntary commitment now comes after a lawsuit by the data protection activist Max Schrems against the DPC.
According to the association noyb (“none of your business” ), which Schrems founded, will be decided on the basis of the GDPR, although this had not yet come into force when the lawsuit was filed. “Under the GDPR, the DPC has the right to impose a fine of up to 4 percent of Facebook’s worldwide sales and bans on data processing.” The decision could turn the original complaint procedure of 2013 into the case that finally seals the fate of Facebook’s EU-US data transfer, the statement said. Schrems therefore also expects the DPC to bear the procedural costs.
Many decisions, little impact In the past seven Years ago the case was in seven courts. “Several courts have ruled that the DPC must investigate the complaint.” However, there were numerous sideshows and breaks. The data protection activist has already repeatedly accused the data protection authority of delaying the proceedings.
The European Court of Justice (ECJ) most recently overturned the Privacy Shield Agreement in July which meant that the legal basis for data transfer to the USA was missing. Facebook, like other companies, relied on standard contractual clauses that state that transfer to third countries is permitted with an equivalent level of data protection. The DPC imposed an order that Facebook had to stop the data transmission, the level of data protection was not equivalent. Facebook threatened to discontinue its services in the EU and filed a complaint with the Irish High Court, in which it said that since the data transfer process had not been completed, an order could not withstand. The High Court ruled that there had to be a judicial review.
Schrems will now be heard and will be given access to all documents submitted by Facebook. After the decision from the summer, the DPC filed a lawsuit against Schrems and Facebook to clarify the legal situation and paused the actual proceedings of 2013 for an indefinite period. Both parties sued for their part, whereby Facebook withdrew, but Schrems insisted on a decision that should now follow.
The Motorola razr 5G can be folded up like its ancestor almost 20 years. The reincarnation was successful, at least visually.
Motorola razr 5G folding smartphone in the test Display and folding mechanism Average hardware Conclusion and test table Article in c’t 1 / 2021 read In cellphone times, the Razr V3 was an iconic flip phone. Motorola is trying to make a comeback with the razr 5G: How to be 17 year old ancestor, the razr 5G can be folded in the middle. When opened, a 6.2-inch OLED screen unfolds, no larger than conventional smartphones. Unlike the foldable Huawei Mate X and Samsung Galaxy Fold, the razr 5G is not supposed to be an ultraportable tablet, but rather a compact smartphone that can be carried in your pocket thanks to the folding mechanism.
You hardly see any differences , but the razr 5G is Motorola’s second attempt at a folding smartphone. The manufacturer has removed some obvious weaknesses in the second edition of the razr. Unlike the predecessor, the revised version is equipped with a slot for a SIM card. The previously exclusive possibility of operating the smartphone via eSIM also remains. At the price of 1500 euros, the razr is now also 5G -capable.
Display and folding mechanism The metal frame of the razr made a robust impression in the test. The folding hinge reliably holds the display in position, i.e. either completely open or folded. The hinge does not allow intermediate steps. This is where the razr differs from the only other similarly compact foldable, the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip. This can also be operated half open and then distributes the controls and content of some apps in the different halves of the display, which can be quite practical.

The right equipment plays an important role, because winter conditions can also cause serious accidents and endanger life and limb. You should therefore always be prepared. It starts with obvious things like snow chains in the trunk and can go as far as warming pads for gloves to protect against frostbite. Even on a short tour in the forest, it is worth taking a look at the temperature map. But especially for longer tours and all those that take you to water or into the mountains, you should always be well prepared. Over the years I have discovered a few solutions and equipment hacks of my own that have made photography easier for me and also saved a little money. Because even if it is not directly about your own integrity, it is much easier to take photos with dry feet and warm fingers.
During some long-term recordings on a winter night my camera froze and I used only 100 Pictures of two battery charges.
But not only you, but also your camera batteries should be kept warm. Battery voltage drops sharply when temperatures drop below freezing. You may be familiar with this phenomenon from your smartphone. It is therefore advisable not to carry the batteries in a photo backpack, but in an inside pocket of the jacket. It is also a good idea to plan an extra battery pack.

(Pocket-lint) – The last 12 months or so have been unlike any other and that has had a profound affect on this year’s CES.
Being virtual-only for the first time, it meant we couldn’t tread the halls of the world’s largest trade show as we usually do, and therefore didn’t get to see as many products in the flesh.
But, we won’t let that stop us from giving you our rundown of the products we think will excite most in the coming year – the announcements from CES 2021 that you should keep an eye on.
This therefore is our list of the best tech launched during a quite unique CES.

Corsair’s 5000X RGB is a beast of an enclosure, offering a solid foundation for big, majestic RGB builds – but you have to throw in a lot of extra fans for it to make sense over the less-costly Obsidian 4000X.

Specifications and Features
When Corsair announced its Obsidian 4000 Series cases, we particularly liked the glass 4000X for its superb RGB implementation and clean appearance, but it had one big drawback over the 4000D Airflow: thermals. With the Obsidian 5000X we have on the test bench today, Corsair addresses these concerns with an added intake on the right side of the case to aid the restricted front glass intake.
But priced at $204.99, there’s a steep premium you pay for this performance potential – and I say potential, because the chassis doesn’t come with the added fans you need to get the increase in thermal performance. The real question is, does this new model deserve a spot on our Best PC Cases list?

Touring around the outside of the chassis, it’s clear that this is a bigger case than the 4000X, and it sits on the larger side of ATX cases. This, of course, is the result of making the case slightly deeper to make room for the side intake, and the case is also slightly taller to make space for thicker radiators at the top.

Weirdly, despite being a case built for RGB, this dark tint and lavish quantity of glass make the chassis quite elegant. Just beware, the white version of the case doesn’t have nearly as dark a tint, so you’ll have to get a lot craftier to get the internals in that case to look good.
Tempered glass is featured not only on the left side, but also the front, top, and right side of the chassis. The glass comes with quite a dark tint, which although it will hide much of your internal components, does have a few benefits: It hides ugly cables in plain sight. You won’t need to get choosy with a pretty motherboard or GPU, and it masks unused space as well. All you’ll see through these panels is the RGB lighting of your components inside. Of course, you’ll need a lot of RGB if you wish to show off the inside of your PC, but it won’t blind you if you overdo it.
(Image credit: Tom’s Hardware)
The front IO resides at the top of the case, and consists of power and reset switches, two USB 3.0 ports, a USB Type-C port, and a headphone/mic combo jack. We typically prefer to see separated jacks for audio instead of combo jacks, but the truth is in general you should avoid using top IO for audio anyway for the best audio, due to interference.
The 5000X’s side panels come off by undoing two thumbscrews at the rear and pulling the back of panels out of their clips. The top and front panels come off simply by gently pulling them out of their clips, off the chassis.
Internal Layout
(Image credit: Tom’s Hardware)
Inside the main compartment of the Corsair 5000X, there is room for up to ATX-size motherboards, GPUs up to 420 mm long and CPU coolers up to 170mm tall. The space at the front of the case goes largely unused, though is of course necessary to create the clearance required to add the side intake.
(Image credit: Tom’s Hardware)
Peek behind the case under the PSU cover, and you’ll find room for a PSU up to 225 mm in length, along with two 3.5-inch hard drives. The back of the motherboard tray offers three trays for additional 2.5-inch drives, though all-in-all, this setup will leave storage enthusiasts wanting, and I expected more 3.5-inch storage space from a case this big.
(Image credit: Tom’s Hardware)
The rear of the system is covered up by a metal door, which will work well to hide the cable clutter to keep things looking clean and tidy through the glass side panel.
Cooling
(Image credit: Tom’s Hardware)
When it comes to cooling, I feel like the Corsair 5000X RGB exists mostly because the 4000X RGB was so restricted for intake that thermals suffered. Of course, acoustic performance was great, but it’s the look of the glass that people are after. In that way, the 5000X RGB takes the 4000X RGB with its beautiful glass front panel, keeps it, and adds a side intake pointed away from the user to aid with intake, which should thereby result in great looks, great thermal performance, and decent noise levels – the best of all three worlds. We’ll see how this works out in practice.
(Image credit: Tom’s Hardware)
If you want to populate all the fan slots, you’ll be busy for a while as you can fit another three fans on the side, three 120mm spinners at the top (or 2x 140), and another 120mm or 140mm spinner at the rear exhaust. Of course, your AIO will probably take care of the top exhaust, but that still leaves another four fan slots open.
At the back of the motherboard tray there is a fan controller that splits a PWM signal into six headers, and an RGB header. The three included fans are connected to each of these controllers, leaving you room for three more.
(Image credit: Tom’s Hardware)
And that’s where the problem comes in with this case. To use the added cooling potential it has over the 4000X, you need to purchase another three fans for the side intake, or else you might as well skip this case and go for the cheaper and smaller 4000X.
Filters are provided on all the fan locations.

That being said, if you’re buying this for a liquid-cooling build, there is ample radiator space with up to 360mm radiators at the top and front, with a 120mm rad at the rear exhaust. The spec sheet also lists a third 360mm radiator spot at the side intake, but that will only work if you remove the shroud, and you’ll have to keep the radiator thin to avoid running into the GPU.

For thick radiators, Corsair includes a replacement shroud part to give more space at the front, but you’ll have to either sacrifice the hard drive cage or use a smaller PSU if you go that route.
System builder iBuypower has been crafting eye-catching and often surprisingly affordable systems for gamers and enthusiasts for over two decades now. But the company’s latest Revolt 3 MK3 small-form-factor desktop, announced at CES 2021, is a handle-equipped perforated monolith designed to house powerful components without taking up much desk or floor space.
The previous
Revolt 2
was an oddly shaped and super-stylized showcase PC that put your SATA SSD in a window up front and your GPU at the top. It also looked a bit like a rejected design for a bulky Daft Punk helmet. And 2013’s Revolt 1 looked like…
whatever this looks like
. In retrospect, the clean lines of the vertically oriented Revolt 3 MK3 look stealthy, understated and, well, like a bigger, better-cooled
Xbox Series X
.
(Image credit: iBuyPower)
If you don’t like basic black, the 18.4-liter Revolt 3 MK3 will also be available in white when it arrives sometime in the second quarter of 2021. The chassis features a nice swing-out door designed to house a chunky 280mm radiator. That, plus the plethora of perforations and an optional 80mm exhaust fan at the top means there won’t likely be an issue pairing one of the best graphics cards with one of the best CPUs in this system.
We’ll have to wait until we get the system in for testing before we make any judgments about how quiet it will be. But with vents on basically every side, the noise output is going to essentially be down to what components you put in it.

Of course, this is an ITX case, and you’ll need an SFX or SFX-L PSU to power everything. But iBuypower says that whether you buy a complete system or just the case from the company, it will ship with a 700W SFX-L power supply installed, with pre-routed cables. There looks to be dust filters on all four sides and the top. It will be interesting to see how easy they’ll be to remove and clean. But at least they’re behind metal panels rather than glass, so a little dust buildup won’t be super obvious.
Aside from the flush-mount handle, both sides also have a pop-out arm for hanging a headset or other accessories. The front panel houses a trio of USB 3.2 ports (one USB-C) at the bottom, which is perfect placement if you have the system sitting at your desk.
And for those worried that the white or black design won’t be eye-catching or customizable enough, the company will also offer a swappable colored mesh inlay behind the front panel. There’s no word yet on color options though, and without seeing the system in person yet, it’s unclear how much the color will stand out behind the panel.

As is often the case with CES announcements, there’s no word yet on price. But we’ll learn that, as well as more details about what hardware the iBuypower Revolt 3 MK3 supports as we get closer to launch, which should be sometime after March. We look forward to getting the iBuypower Revolt 3 MK3 onto our test bench for a full review later this year.
In conjunction with Intel’s Rocket Lake CPU announcements, board partners pulled back the curtain on several new Z590-based motherboards to go along with the upcoming chip. The new motherboards promise native PCIe 4.0 support (with Rocket Lake CPUs), USB 3.2 Gen2x2 support from the chipset and upgraded power delivery. Best of all, we’ll get to see some new board designs. All of the major board partners have released a slate of options based on the new chipset — many of which we’ll eventually review — and a select few may even make it to our best motherboards page.
On the CPU front, the Rocket Lake CPUs took a step backward on core count at the top end, with the flagship Core i9-11900K set at 8-core/16-threads (like the i9-9900K had in 2018), while the Core i9-10900K was a 10-core/20-thread part. But the reality is, that change won’t affect a lot of users. At this time, there aren’t many (possibly any) games that show a marked performance improvement above an 8-core/16-thread setup. And if your work needs more, you can step up to the HEDT platform or buy an AMD Ryzen 5000 series/X570 combination.
Helping to make up for the core count deficit, the new CPU is supposed to bring significant IPC improvements as well as AVX-512 support, faster base memory speed (up to 3200 MHz), 20 CPU-connected PCIe 4.0 lanes, Intel Xe integrated graphics and more. As with previous launches, Intel will certainly fill out the product stack with other variants such as 6-core/12-thread processors down to 4-core/8-thread parts. When the time comes, we’ll have a full CPU review as well as an updated product list. Until then, we have some high-level information about the new Z590 chipset and the motherboards that go along with it to tide you over.
Intel Z590 Chipset: Same Socket, Different Features
At the time of this writing, Intel has not released the full details of the Z590 chipset. However, we do know a few things that differentiate Z590 from the previous-gen Z490. Unlike Z390 to Z490, the LGA 1200 socket remains the same, which in this case means both Rocket Lake-S and Comet Lake-S chips will work with Z590 based motherboards; Z490 requires a BIOS update to work with Rocket Lake processors. In addition to the flagship Z590 chipset, Intel is also releasing B560 and H510 chipsets. Typically these lesser chipsets are locked to prevent overclocking. However, there are rumors of B560 overclocking. Stay tuned on that front.
The most significant difference between the two chipsets is native PCIe 4.0 support when using a Rocket Lake processor. A Rocket Lake CPU shares 20 PCIe PCIe 4.0 lanes between the PCIe slots/GPU and M.2 socket/storage. It feels like Intel has finally caught up to AMD’s B550 chipset, at least, but still isn’t close to the lane count and flexibility of X570.
Another significant difference with Z590 is the DMI link between the chipset and CPU. On Z590, Intel has doubled the link speed, going from PCIe 3.0 x4 to x8. The jump to x8 effectively doubles the amount of bandwidth available for any chipset-connected devices (storage and networking for example). Additionally, the chipset now has native support for USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 (20 Gbps), so we should see these ultra-fast USB Type-A and Type-C ports on most Z590 motherboards.
Other differences are more subtle, outside of the native PCIe 4.0 support on all boards. Here’s a look at how Z590 compares with Intel’s previous mainstream flagship chipsets. Keep in mind some details are still uncertain as we wrote this.

Intel hasn’t shared too many details on the Rocket Lake CPU, including TDP. We know it will have a TDP/PL1 of 125W with a PL2 (turbo) power limit of 250W, with a 56-second duration. With fewer cores and threads to cool, perhaps thermal mitigation will be less of an issue on the new CPUs. But we’ll see the continued use of formidable VRMs and large heatsinks to keep these power-hungry CPUs in check. Some Halo products may include active cooling on the VRMs or even integrate water blocks to cool the VRMs and CPU.
Memory support for the new CPUs also gets a small bump from DDR4 2933 to DDR4 3200 when using the new Rocket Lake-based processors. The new value now matches AMD’s official maximum for memory support. Some of the new boards support overclocked DDR4 to speeds well over 5000 MHz – similar to what we saw with Z490. As usual, your mileage will vary, and working with the correct CPU (with a good integrated memory controller) and memory kit is critical when chasing high memory clocks. That said, the sweet spot for memory speeds and performance per dollar is likely around where it currently is, DDR4 3600-3800 with CL14/16. Much beyond that and the kits’ price goes up sharply while performance doesn’t follow linearly.
The networking situation doesn’t change too much on Z590. The chipset continues integrated support for Intel CNVi Wi-Fi (Wi-Fi 6) and Wireless-AX. All the board partners need to do is add the Wi-Fi card to the board. You’ll find 2.5 Gb NICs on most boards on the wired front, while some flagships go higher with 5 GbE or 10 GbE. The budget boards will use 1 GbE, which is still acceptable for most users. Since most of you don’t have 1 Gb-plus internet service in the first place, the faster ports are still valuable for transfers within your network (assuming the slowest part is up to the task).
Little is known about the USB configuration far, but we know that the USB 3.2 Gen2x2 (20 Gbps) is supported natively. Port counts for USB USB 3.2 Gen1/2 (5/10 Gbps, respectively), haven’t been confirmed either, but we don’t expect it to change much from the six (Gen2) and 10 (Gen1) ports already supported.
No details were shared on the SATA3 6 Gbps port count, but we expect that to remain the same at six as well. Any motherboards with more than six ports use a third-party controller, typically from ASMedia. As mentioned earlier, the most significant difference is simply PCIe 4.0 support from the CPU. Intel has finally caught up to AMD on that front, at least with CPU-connected lanes. All of the fancy new PCIe 4.0 video cards have a native home on an Intel-based system. The performance difference with current-generation video cards usually isn’t much, but still worth having if only for faster storage capabilities.
While Z590 has arrived, we still awhile to wait to see how the new CPUs fare, which is rather unfortunate. At some later point, lower-priced B560 and H510 chipset-based motherboards will be available. But at the time of this writing, there are over 45 Z590 boards to choose from. So if you’re looking to build a new system based on Intel’s latest, there should be something for everyone.
Z590 Motherboards: The Full List (So Far)
With the chipset details out of the way, we’ve provided a list of all Z590 motherboards announced and found on the various company websites. Board partners provided the information listed in the following tables. We’ll break things out by the company on the following page and offer some thoughts on the respective launch lineups. Sadly, pricing is an essential piece of information that vendors haven’t provided yet, but we’ll fill in the chart as we receive the information.

Intel Z590 chipset arrives supporting Intel 11th-Gen Processors
Samsung’s Galaxy S21 phones are official. The firm took the wraps off its Galaxy S21, S21+ and S21 Ultra during its Galaxy Unpacked event, where it also unveiled the Galaxy Buds Pro true wireless earbuds.
The event, which took place a month earlier than usual, was of course virtual, but that didn’t stop Samsung from giving chapter and verse on its new Galaxy S Series.
The headline news: the flagship S21 Ultra sports the S-Pen that was until now exclusive to the company’s big-screen Note phones, such as the Note 20 Ultra, and features an even more highly-specified 108MP quad camera. The Galaxy S21 range features cameras capable of shooting 8K video at 24fps, and a new camera bump design for a refreshed aesthetic.
Could the Galaxy S21 not only prove the company’s best yet but also rise above the latest flagship Sony Xperia 1 II to claim the best phone plaudits? We certainly wouldn’t bet against it.

Galaxy S21 price and release date
The Galaxy S21 5G will be available in Phantom Violet, Phantom Grey, Phantom Pink and Phantom White finishes, available with 8GM RAM in 128GB (£769, $799) and 256GB (£819) storage options.
The Galaxy S21+ 5G comes in Phantom Violet, Phantom Silver and Phantom Black options with 8GB RAM and 128GB (£949, $999) or 256GB (£999) storage sizes.
And lastly, the Galaxy S21 Ultra 5G is available in Phantom Black and Phantom Silver, coated in a ‘frosted haze’ matte finish. Phantom Titanium, Phantom Navy and Phantom Brown are additional finishes available exclusively on Samsung.com. RAM and storage pairings are as follows: 12GB RAM with 128GB (£1149, $1199), 16GB with 256GB (£1199), and 16GB with 512GB (£1329).
Galaxy S21 pre-orders are open immediately for all three phones, with shipping beginning on 29th January.

Galaxy S21 series: camera
We found the camera on last year’s Galaxy S20 to be a real highlight, so the fact that Samsung has improved its excellent software for the S21 series is promising. Single Take, which creates a portfolio of all the best moments you capture in one shot (useful when scrolling through options to upload to Instagram), enters a 2.0 version, now using five times more AI processing for the promise of even better results. There’s Dynamic Slo-Mo, as well as a Highlights Reel, the idea being that you don’t need to edit shots yourself.
Portrait Mode has been improved (you can now alter the lighting or your backdrop), as has Space Zoom, which now has a lock to neutralise shaky hands at 30x zoom. The new Director’s View mode lets you simultaneously view both the front and rear cameras in your viewfinder, with all of the lenses available to easily switch between. Vlogger view, meanwhile, lets you simultaneously capture from both the front and back lenses, so you can shoot something while, say, documenting your own reaction.
8K at 24fps video recording is onboard, with 8K Video Snap allowing you to capture high-res photos when playing your videos back. And this is the first time 4K filming at 60fps is achievable through all lenses.
While the Galaxy S21 and S21+ have triple-lens snappers (a 12MP ultra-wide, 12MP wide and 64MP telephoto) and a 10MP front shooter, the Ultra takes things further once again. We’re looking at Samsung’s “most advance Pro-grade cameras yet” here. There’s still a quad rear configuration here, but the main 108MP wide lens is new and promises 64x richer colours and three times wider dynamic range. That’s complemented by 12MP ultra-wide and two 10MP telephotos.
That dual-telephoto system (one 3x optical, one 10x optical) powers the Ultra’s 100x Space Zoom, with the lenses automatically switching according to the distance from your subject. And with a new Bright Night sensor, improved Night Mode, noise reduction and 12MP Nona-binning technology, Samsung is promising its “biggest leap yet in low-light photography”. We look forward to trying all that out for ourselves.

Galaxy S21 series: screen
The camera lens bump marks the biggest design tweak for the S21 family, with the contoured cut-out blending into the device’s metal frame on the top left corner. It certainly gives the body’s rear a sleeker, more streamlined look.
The front of the phone shouldn’t let the side down either, their ‘Dynamic AMOLED 2x’ screens supporting 120Hz in 6.2in FHD+ (S21), 6.7in FHD+ (S21+) and 6.8in WQHD+ (S21 Ultra) sizes, and featuring a new Eye Comfort Shield that automatically adjusts blue levels.
The Ultra boasts the “best display Samsung has ever created”, offering that maximum refresh rate even in maximum resolution quality. Samsung is promising 25 per cent more brightness (the peak is an eye-dazzling 1500 nits) and double the contrast of the S20 Ultra’s screen. Bold.
Of course, that display is at the mercy of your fingertips – or the S-Pen, as it hits the S Series for the first time. When asked where this leaves the Note line, TM Roh, Samsung’s president and head of mobile communications business, said: “We’ve made the bold decision to expand the S Pen experience to Galaxy S21 Ultra, and plan to expand the S Pen experience across additional device categories in the future.”

Galaxy S21 series: the rest
While Samsung has predominantly moved the S21 family on in camera and screen technology, more modest improvements have been made under the hood, too. Ready for a numbers breakdown? Here it goes.
Samsung is promising 20 per cent faster CPU, 35 per cent faster GPU, and double-the-speed AI processors over the S20 handsets, making the S21 its fastest phones to date. The ‘Ultrasonic’ in-screen fingerprint scanner is now 1.7x larger for improved accuracy, too.
Battery-wise, the S21, S21+ and S21 Ultra sport 4000mAh, 4800mAh and 5000mAh juice packs respectively – the only change over the S20 series being the middle device gaining an extra 300mAh.
There’s 8GB RAM, plus either 128GB or 256GB storage options for the S21 and S21+, while the S21 Ultra gets either 8GB or 16GB RAM, with either 128GB, 256GB or 512GB storage options.
All three support Samsung’s Smart Things Find (which helps you locate Galaxy devices using Bluetooth LE – even when they’re offline) and £29/$30 Galaxy Smart Tag (which helps you locate non-connected devices or belongings that are tagged – pets, keys etc).
5G is, as expected, on the menu across the line-up, while Ultra-wideband (UWB) wireless communication technology support in the S21+ and S21 Ultra means we could see those premium devices able to, say, unlock a car (i.e. replace a car key fob) in the near-future, too.
So there you have it: three 5G Galaxy S21 phones for 2021, with improved cameras and screens, sleek (and tweaked) designs, and an expanded feature set for the Ultra handset. We, for one, cannot wait to get our hands on them very shortly. Watch this space, Android fans.

Having been leaked all across the web in recent months, the Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro are finally official. The company’s latest true wireless earbuds have been announced alongside its Galaxy S21 phones during today’s Galaxy Unpacked event, and are its latest and most ambitious response to the AirPods Pro yet.
If you’ve watched this 17-minute long hands-on video leak, you already know a lot about these next-generation Samsung wireless earbuds. Indeed, most of it has turned out to be true. But if you haven’t, or would rather read about them instead, here’s the full lowdown…
(Image credit: Samsung)
Like the Samsung Galaxy Buds Live they replace, the Galaxy Buds Pro sport active noise-cancellation – only this time it’s more versatile and supposedly more effective. Which is why Samsung is calling it ‘Intelligent ANC’. While Samsung claimed that the Buds Live could reduce background noise under 700Hz (e.g. trains and buses) by up to 97 per cent, the Buds Pro promise to block 99 per cent of outside noise.
There’s ‘high’ and ‘low’ levels of ANC this time, as well as four levels of Ambient Sound, allowing users to vary the intensity of the isolating effect and let in varying degrees of sound if they need to.
Also helping to justify the ‘Intelligent’ naming, the Buds Pro can also automatically switch between ANC and Ambient Sound, too, with the earbuds able to recognise when a conversation begins and ends. Start talking and the Buds Pro will turn down your music, firing it back up to volume when you’re done, and offering a skip-back function if you missed your favourite part of the song you were listening to.

Samsung Galaxy fans can take advantage of the AirPods-like Auto Switch feature, which lets the earbuds simultaneously connect to multiple Galaxy devices and automatically switch to the one you’re using. For example, if you’re watching a video on your Galaxy Tab tablet when a call comes in, the Buds Pro will switch to your phone so you can answer it, switching back when you hang up.
As rumoured, the Pro Buds offer IPX7 water protection – an upgrade from the IPX2-rated Buds Live and Galaxy Buds+ before them. That’s the difference between surviving water drips to being able to be completely submerged under at least one meter of water for at least half an hour. Consider the Buds Pro pretty waterproof, then!
As for battery life, you get 18 hours in total (which is OK but only OK), with a five-minute fast charge delivering one hour of playback time.

As you can see, Samsung has ditched the kidney-bean design of their predecessors (which is a shame; we actually quite liked it) and returned to the more traditional rounder shape of the Galaxy Buds+ with more traditional earbud tips. They come in Phantom Violet, Phantom Silver and Phantom Black – all pictured above.
We can only hope the 11mm woofer and 6.5mm tweeter pairing inside their glossy exterior fares better than the drivers inside the Buds Live, too. Our Galaxy Buds Live review only deemed them worthy of three stars and concluded: “They produce a hefty and full-bodied sound, but it’s a sound that lacks dynamism and excitement.” Fingers crossed the Buds Pro are more competitive in the sonic department, and they’ll need to be, given their price tag.
The Samsung Galaxy Buds Pro cost £219 ($199) – a smidgeon over the rumoured UK price of £199 – and can be pre-ordered now, with shipping beginning on the 29th January.

Glorious PC Gaming Race (or Glorious for short) is a peripherals company based in the United States. With the Model O, Glorious generated quite a bit of hype. Bringing a lightweight mouse with top-tier specifications to the $50 mark has certainly had an impact on the market ever since, leading to an ever more competitive environment. With the Model O Wireless, Glorious wants to repeat history by offering a top-tier lightweight wireless mouse for well under $100. Equipped with their proprietary “BAMF” sensor capable of up to 19,000 CPI, the Glorious Model O Wireless promises a battery life of up to 71 hours with illumination disabled. At a weight of just 69 g, the Model O Wireless is also one of the lightest wireless gaming mice currently available, and only marginally heavier than its wired counterpart. Additionally, the charging cable is flexible enough to allow for use of the Model O Wireless as if it were a regular wired Model O, and USB Type-C support has one fast-charging the battery in an hour or less. In terms of shape, buttons, materials, and feet, no changes have been made compared to the regular Model O. Lastly, Glorious built an entirely new software called Glorious Core for the Model O Wireless, with improved aesthetics and functionality. The Model O Wireless will be available in matte black or matte white initially, with glossy variants to follow.

Epomaker, short for “The Epoch of Makers,” effectively is an entity comprised of several keyboard brands/makers. The Epomaker brand is among them, and to remove any confusion, this review shall cover Epomaker the brand from now on. The brand is based in China, but has been in the public eye across the globe recently by offering a lot of interesting keyboards, especially high quality pre-builds for very reasonable prices. Their latest offering went up on Kickstarter to a resounding success and is going retail in January 2021 to ring in the new year. As such, we want to make sure you are well aware of the GK96S before you decide on whether this is for you. Thanks to Epomaker for sending a review sample to TechPowerUp!
Perhaps the biggest feature of the Epomaker GK96S is the high degree of customization on offer. Indeed, my sample is a completely different board altogether, the GK96LS, where the “L” stands for the left-handed numpad. The standard version has the more familiar 96% form factor with shorter keys on the bottom row and dedicated arrow keys, while the GK96LS foregoes the latter for a more substantial numpad. The company outright states that this is more for those prioritizing ergonomics and number crunching, with the standard version still saving you quite a lot of space compared to a typical full-size keyboard. The other customization options here include a wide plethora of switches to choose from, with the optical switch versions using “SK” instead of “GK” in the name, as well as different keycap colors and composition, which results in an extremely high number of SKUs. This review based on one SKU will aim to discuss the GK96S family as a whole (including the SK96S) and the GK96LS in my specific configuration in detail, beginning with a look at the specifications below.

If you’re interested in learning about the Lenovo Legion 5i gaming laptop, I now have much more than a mere written review to share with you. Swedish metal band Iron Savages was paid by an ad agency that’s representing Lenovo to scream a few choice lines from my review, and producer Claudio Marino made the video above.
To be clear, this is an ad. The agency asked for my permission to use some quotes from our review, and I said yes. That was in early November, and I quite honestly forgot about what I had agreed to. Then today, at the height of our collective CES 2021 grind at The Verge, it appeared in my inbox. It gave all of us some much-needed dumb delight, and maybe you’ll get a laugh out of it, too.
There’s nothing like hearing the lines “10th Gen Intel Core processors” and “attractive, yet plainly designed gaming laptop” screamed in a guttural tone, while the Legion 5i just idly sits there during the show.
