It’s not often we see a home cinema projector – that most old-fashioned and clunky of devices – with three unique features. And yet, that’s exactly what you’ll find on the Optoma UHL55 HDR projector. The first notable feature is built-in voice control for both Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant. Impressive, but not unexpected. The …

The Samsung Galaxy Tab S2 arrived to take on the iPad in 2015. It’s since been superseded by the Galaxy Tab S3 and the Galaxy Tab S4, but if you can find it at a decent price online it might be worth a look. One advantage of going for older hardware is much cheaper prices: …

Update: The Asus ZenPad 3S 10 still sits in our best tablet of the year rankings but it’s no longer as desirable as it once was. The price has dropped but not vastly, the software has been updated since launch but only to Android Nougat, and there’s new competition from the likes of the iPad …

Convertible laptops are now mainstream and touch screen functionality is not only a welcomed but also a desirable feature on the specification checklist.

To avoid any confusion from the outset, this is Zoolz the cloud backup service. And not Zuul, the Gatekeeper Gozer the Gozerian as depicted in the 1982 classic comedy movie, Ghostbusters. The service is based on Amazon Glacier technology, and at this time Zoolz is one of the biggest users of ‘Cold Storage’, providing a …

Recently Strato, the company behind this product, rebranded it, so what was previously known as 1&1 Hidrive is now 1&1 IONOS HiDrive. But we’ll buck this trend and call it HiDrive from this point onwards. In a crowded SaaS market, what has HiDrive to offer that makes it an alternative to Dropbox and the other …

Update: Samsung’s Gear Sport now has some new competition from the Samsung Galaxy Watch, but it’s also cheaper than it once was. We’ve updated this review to reflect both those things. Samsung’s Gear Sport appears to have two clear goals: be slimmer than the previous year’s Gear S3 model, and bring in swimming support. In …

iMovie is Apple’s idea of a consumer-level video editing programme. It’s divided into various sections. Top of the interface are three options: Media, Projects and Theatre. The Media’s sidebar on the left is where any video clip you’ve already added to iMovie’s Library is stored. It also grants you access to photos and videos kept …

Now that Arlo has been successfully spun off from parent company Netgear, it has chosen this moment to expand its portfolio of smart security cameras with its first smart security light.
