Very useful, average build quality
on November 5, 2026
Posted by: psyclopps
The Energizer 10,000 mAh four cable Power Bank is a great travel companion. The features are basic, but it is wonderful if you need power for your phone, tablet, and more.
Build quality:
The entire body is made of plastic all around. This includes the display area which appears to be plastic as it has some flex to it and does not sound like glass when tapped on. This is not all bad since it means it is unlikely to break if dropped but may be scratched easier than glass. I did not find any metal components on the device.
The lanyard is rubber and a tiny bit stretchy and doesn’t feel like it will break any time soon.
Features:
The fun feature is the flashlight. I don’t know if I will ever use it, but it will be nice to have it when camping since you can never have enough flashlights at the ready. To turn it on, simply hold the power button for a few seconds.
Otherwise, all the features are related to charging. This device can power multiple devices at once with a USB-A, 2x USB-C cables and a Micro USB- cable. There is also a female USB-A x2 (one in and one out) and a USB-C in or out port. Here are the various ratings in Watts.
Inputs:
USB-A - 10W
USB-C - 18W
Outputs:
USB-A1 - 22.5W
USB-A2 - 10W
USB-C Port - 20W
USB-C1 - 20W
USB-C2 - 10W
Micro-USB - 10W
Obviously, it will restrict the max power output if you connect multiple devices at a time.
The flashlight is not the brightest, but it will be fine in a completely dark environment.
The only reason I removed a star from this review is because the build quality is just average otherwise it is a good product overall.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Jack of all trades, master of none. Premium build
on November 5, 2026
Posted by: psyclopps
I think the best way I can describe this laptop is as a jack-of-all-trades, master of none. This isn’t necessarily a bad thing, just a very good laptop for pretty much everything, but outclassed in specific fields by other brands and architectures (this review is not a comparison). It is great for a power user who wants the ability to do pretty much everything with above average results, doesn’t really lag in any specific area, but is not going to be class leading in any field. The only reason I am giving it three stars is because of the numerous small issues listed in the review and no class leading marks in any area (aside from audio and input). It is a laptop I love very much but it has various issues to be aware of.
All tests are plugged in, high performance unless noted in the test that it is on battery.
Unboxing:
This laptop is PREMIUM. The body feels amazing. First use of the keyboard and trackpad are perfect. Setup is your usual Windows setup with some updates likely needed the first time. For some weird reason, mine took an hour and a half to fully update which was weird since this is much slower than any other Windows laptop I have ever used during setup. Once it is set up though, the first impression is that this is an impressive device.
Make sure to fully update all apps and Windows Update items after setting up if anything is leftover. Specifically, update the Nvidia App as this is needed to get full control of your unified memory to the GPU if needed.
I am a developer, amateur photographer and occasional gamer so these are the test cases I used this laptop with.
RAM:
As mentioned in the intro, this laptop gets pretty good results in everything but does not excel in any specific area. My unit is the 32GB model which somewhat limits what I could do with some test instances such as AI.
Of note, it is worth knowing that the 32GB is partitioned in various ways to allow it to be shared with the GPU and system. For instance, I set up 8GB to be dedicated to VRAM. Around 1.1GB appears to be reserved by the system for what I assume is NPU/UEFI/Firmware/WDDM and various other items. So, in my instance, the breakdown is:
32GB – 8GB VRAM – 1.1GB System reserved = 22.9GB Usable leftover
You can adjust the dedicated VRAM in the Nvidia App but keep in mind, the reserved amount is a bare minimum dedicated to the GPU, not an upper limit as it is allowed to spill into remaining RAM if needed. For most people I recommend just putting it at the bare minimum of 4GB and let the system manage it from there. If you are a creator using software for video editing or 3D graphics, set it higher between 12-16 (16 is the max on this 32GB unit) to ensure resources are always available.
I am not complaining as I love this laptop, but if I were to purchase this laptop, I would get the 48GB model minimum to allow 32GB for system use and 16GB to be always set for the video card. I say this as this unit was sent to me as a review unit so 32GB is what I received for these tests.
AI:
32GB for LLMs is somewhat restrictive but still doable. 32GB is wonderful for most tasks but AI is somewhat limited at that size. I tried multiple models in LM Studio, but the best mix of accuracy and speed I could find which fit into available RAM space was qwen3-coder-30b Q3_K_L which weighs in at around 14GB and consumes around 17GB of RAM when in use depending on your settings and context size. I chose this model as my goal was to keep roughly 16GB available for the system so I can run instances of VS Code, Docker, PostgreSQL and so on. You could fit a larger model into the 32GB but beware as you will be limited in other tasks if you do.
I was impressed by the Tokens per second I was able to get on this model for a Windows laptop.
After some configuration I was able to achieve the following:
Qwen 3-coder-30b 84.87 Tok/sec Q4 KV cache, 79.91 on battery balanced mode.
Qwen 3-coder-30b 85.35 Tok/sec Q8 KV cache, 79.07 on battery balanced mode.
When using this model, the fans will spin up for a lengthy response, but it quickly cools down almost immediately after the prompt finishes.
These numbers are very good for “integrated” graphics, but you may be better off getting a PC with a discrete GPU and 16GB of VRAM as it will give you better numbers if that is your priority while not touching your system RAM. If staying cool, battery life and maintaining most of your performance while on battery (coffee shop work) are important to you while using an LLM, RTX Spark is a great option.
Display:
This is going to be the weak point for this device. It is by no means a bad display, it just happens to be the most reflective glass I have ever seen! There is basically no way to use it in dark mode without lots of reflections if there are any other lights in your room. Using light mode is a must in most environments. Otherwise, the display uses Mini-LED which I have few if any concerns about. It looks great, is extremely sharp and bright and accurate for colors.
For photography, the colors are spot on and I feel that any designer or artist would enjoy it. Obviously, the drawback of Mini-LED is that blacks are not fully black so that may be an issue for some, but it appears to me the reflections are a bigger issue compared to the black levels. I am unsure if it is all units or just mine, but I can see a slight blue tinge on the right and left edges when displaying bright content which may be an issue for some.
Additionally, a drawback for some may be the pixel response time. According to web resources, the response time black-to-white is measured at 57 ms. Most people likely will not notice, but this is poor for anyone who needs fast response times such as gamers. It can be seen when moving the mouse quickly in some instances.
The 3:2 aspect ratio at a high point with a high resolution of 3270x2180 with HDR support. I found it outstanding for coding with those specs as you can view differentials easily with extra rows due to the taller aspect ratio.
Battery and cooling:
The battery life of this device is above average, but as with other areas, not groundbreaking. If you are coding all day, working on office documents, doing edits to photos, it will easily last all day running cool and quiet. I tend to keep it in Balanced battery mode for a good mix of performance which barely differs from High Performance and battery life.
If you are a user who is hoping to use LLMs, do 3D design and rendering while on the go with battery, you technically can, but your battery life will be far shorter lasting only a few short hours as the fans will be running with these heavy workloads. The GPU is integrated and almost as powerful as a RTX 5070, so it is more efficient, but also still a relatively high powered part when used to its fullest.
Many times I found myself using the laptop running my normal work and later realizing it was on battery since I had zero noticeable difference in performance.
Audio:
This laptop has probably the best speakers on a Windows laptop currently. It is great if you want to listen to music while working, loud booms from games or just want to hang out with some tunes in the background.
Keyboard/mouse:
This laptop also has some of the best input experiences out there. The keyboard has plenty of travel and great spacing allowing for outstanding accuracy when typing. The FN key can be toggled on, and off which is always nice. The haptic mouse is extremely accurate and has great response with clicks. If you are working away from your desk, this is the laptop to do it on if you do not have a mouse available. The keyboard is a fingerprint magnet though, especially the spacebar.
ARM optimization:
For my use, I found almost no issues with compatibility as Windows on ARM has come a long way. The only issues I had were a few games and using SQL. Of note, some software requires updates or beta software to use properly (e.g. Blender 5.3 Beta) which should have full support for RTX Spark. In task manager details, sorting processes by architecture shows that almost every app and service I used are optimized for ARM natively with only a few running x86 emulation (screenshot attached showing all the x86 items which run in my normal workflow).
Here is the suite I tested for my workflow:
Python, Notepad++, VS Code, Anti-Gravity IDE, LM Studio, Adobe Lightroom, Docker, various Python libraries, Oracle VirtualBox. None had any issues running. Some of the games I tested had some stuttering due to the Prism emulation, but most newer games ran fine.
Repairability:
This laptop is a dream for anyone who wants to do repairs if needed. Not much is upgradable, only the SSD which is a standard 2280 size. It is a PCI-e 5 hard drive so make sure to use that when upgrading to maintain the fast SSD speeds.
Getting to the internals simply involves prying off the three rubber feet which use zero adhesive (thank goodness) and go back on easily. After that you need to remove four T5 screws. Use a suction cup to pull on the back cover and it comes off extremely easily as it is held on with magnets, no clasps to pry off! Once you are inside the system, every single component tells you what size screws are used on it with little labels.
Benchmarks:
I ran a suite of various benchmarks to test performance of graphics and the CPU.
- CrystalDiskMark
Read: MB/s 14478.67 MB/s & Write: 12674.09 MB/s
- Doom Eternal:

Good for students and light work. Great style!
on November 1, 2026
Posted by: psyclopps
This laptop is designed for students or basic work purposes. It is a laptop for someone who doesn’t need much power, but values build quality, battery life, style and a good experience. Overall, it is a very good laptop with some slightly outdated hardware, but this may be a non-issue pending your use case.
Setup:
The laptop was pretty much ready to go out to the box for me and up and running in less than 30 minutes. My unit only needs a small update, the usual Windows login and not much else after connecting to Wi-Fi. Make sure to set up Windows Hello if you are a fan of Face ID as this works very much the same with IR to verify your identity along with the camera.
Bloatware is minimal and just limited to a few ASUS tools like MyASUS to update components of the laptop and get further support, ASUS GlideX for screen mirroring and extension and ScreenXpert to name a few, they can all be easily uninstalled if you do not want them. There is no annoying antivirus software to demand you subscribe.
Typing and mouse:
I love the keyboard on ASUS laptops and this one doesn’t disappoint. The keyboard has plenty of depth, great spacing and feedback. The mouse is a diving board style (not haptic), but it is extremely smooth and accurate. For a typing test out of the box, I was able to get my usual speed with no issue and no new muscle memory needed.
Speakers:
The speakers are very good/above average for a 14” laptop. The speakers are only dual speakers, but they sound very good for the size and tier of the laptop. For a student or worker, this is more than adequate for their workload and some background music. They are far from the best on PC and Mac but still above average compared to many other laptops.
Build quality:
This is a high point for the laptop. The Ceraluminum build in Arctic Blue looks stunning. It is fingerprint and scratch resistant while still feeling high quality and durable. Best of all, it is only 2.87 lbs and extremely portable.
Performance:
This is the downside of the laptop. The Snapdragon X processor is a good processor, but almost two years old at this point. It is designed for efficiency, low power, and productivity work. Aside from that I wouldn’t bother if you plan on gaming anything more strenuous than Roblox, Minecraft or CS: GO. As for work, it is outstanding for Office Suites and meetings all day, but if you do any creative work the most, I would do with it is very light photo editing. I ran a suite of benchmarks for info below. RAM is LPDDR5X which is plenty fast at 16GB 8448 MT/s which should be good for this tier of laptop and most users. The SSD is not the fastest, but it has adequate performance. Benchmark using CrystalDiskMark is in the attached photos.
Of note, performance is generally on par with battery as it is when plugged in, down to the balanced mode (a perk of ARM processors).
Speedometer 3.1 Plugged in
32.7 (high performance) / 32.6 (balanced) / 30.2 (power efficiency)
Speedometer 3.1 Battery
32.1 (high performance) / 31.2 (balanced) / 18.2 (power efficiency)
Steel Nomad Light (Somehow this scored higher on battery)
1075 (high performance) / 1078 (balanced on battery)
Wildlife Extreme
3259 (High performance)
Geekbench AI ONYX
QNN Single – 1447 / Half – 19050 / Quantized – 51462
CPU Single – 1358 / Half – 2296 / Quantized – 4990

Screen quality:
The resolution is limited to 1900 x 1200 60hz 8bit (non-HDR). It is a very good screen and has color space up to 100% DCI-P3 space but not the highest end. As usual with this review, it is very good for normal work but not for creative work or anything that requires a high-performance screen. Response time seems very good as well. It is non-touch, which may be a pro or a con for some people.
Battery:
Outstanding battery. If your kid forgets their charger at home, they will have no issue getting through a school day (or two) on this laptop. The same goes for work. If you are in meetings all day and editing documents, you will also have no issue. The battery is only 50WHrs to keep weight low, but paired with the highly efficient processor, this will last forever. The power supply is a 68W output providing decently fast charging.
Repairability:
There is not much that is upgradable, but you can swap out the SSD and the battery if things go awry. The SSD is a standard 2280 size so all you need to do is clone the current drive and swap it out. The battery appears to be held in with a few screws and the power connector.
Access to the interior is outstanding. There are 10 T5 size screws on the bottom, the bottom right one is a captive screw (so don’t force it out). As the captive screw releases it lifts the lower body cover allowing you to easily pry off the cover which comes off easily with no tools.

Great for any use!
on October 27, 2026
Posted by: psyclopps
I love this mouse! It is fun to have an extra screen which can display useful controls, it works outstandingly well, looks great and even has easily swappable batteries. My only complaint is the Swarm II software, which is somewhat clunky, but it is not a big deal for a reliable gaming mouse that is just as useful for work.
Setup:
The device connects via Bluetooth or via the USB-A dongle. I suggest the dongle for a dedicated (2.4GHz RF) connection. The dongle can be hooked up to the battery charger which then extends its connection to the PC. This method is best for charging batteries and keeping the connection.
You do not require the Turtle Beach Swarm II software to use the device, but it is highly recommended so firmware updates can happen and you can set up the device any way you want, especially the screen. I needed a direct wired connection in order to update the device and the dongle.
Gaming:
I love this mouse; there are plenty of buttons and all feel solid and work well. The screen is great if you customize it to your liking. I like to have the GPU/CPU data and DPI option available when playing a game and prefer the music controls when working. You can set up copy and paste functions into the screen along with many other options.
I use a 4k screen and found that 1200 DPI works best for most use cases without being too fast or sluggish. Anything under that and it takes too many swipes to get across the screen. For gaming it works well but you may want to bump it up for fast response times in FPS games.
Work:
For work it is also outstanding as it is extremely comfortable and ergonomic for long sessions. As I mentioned, copy/paste or music controls are useful for long computer sessions here. The mouse is very accurate on pretty much any surface.
Battery:
The battery has not been drained in the week or so I have tested it. If it does die, there is a 2nd battery which can easily be swapped in the rear compartment, and it will be up and running in seconds while the old battery charges. This is ideal for me since a low battery doesn’t mean I need to find a cord to hook up and charge with or put the phone in the docking station as other mice do.

Great for existing systems
on October 27, 2026
Posted by: psyclopps
This doorbell is very good if you have an existing SimpliSafe system. Specifically, you need to have a SimpliSafe Gen 3 system. Installation is easy and quality is good overall. The integration with the SimpliSafe ecosystem is seamless and adds extra peace of mind with professional monitoring for subscribers.
Installation:
Be aware you may need to drill additional holes if your existing doorbell has different size or spacing for screws. For me, I had to drill using a ¼” masonry drill bit for stucco as per the instructions. Once that is done, all hardware you need after that is included such as brackets, screws, anchors, wiring and so on. The device fits fine in the new spot used with the included angled mount. My doorbell is an electronic chime which is compatible with my wiring. After turning on the electricity and testing, pairing is the same as any SimpliSafe device via the app.
Quality:
The device looks good on my wall and fits most designs in my opinion with a professional looking design. The device has been reliable in my testing with notifications coming in when properly triggered, access to 30 days of history and pretty good video quality, though I wouldn’t call it “best in class”.
App:
Use of the SimpliSafe app is the same as any other device you might have in the system. The only thing I wish this device had better use of is integration for Google Home or Alexa. It is present but extremely bare bones with no camera support. Basically, all you can do is arm or disarm your system which can kick off whatever automation you have set up for the entire system including the cameras. If Google, Amazon or Apple assistant integration was fully in place, this would be a perfect rating.
Downloading video events is easy so long as it was triggered. It appears that event tracking is only by event, not minute by minute. The app allows you to set up what is triggered such as animals, motion, people and so on. It is very easy to configure your zones for notifications with a grid of blocks you can select or deselect if you want it included.

Best mainstream headphones available
on September 22, 2026
Posted by: psyclopps
I love these headphones. Sony basically brought back the XM4 line in all its glory, with foldable earcups, better styling (in my opinion), and updated Bluetooth. They cut back a few features from the original XM4, but nothing that is a big deal.
Pros:
- Design
- Comfort
- Sound quality
- Durable
- Foldable
Cons:
- Lower battery life
- No NFC
Setup:
The device is designed to work with the Sony Connect app. I am not a huge fan of the app as it is designed ideally to work with location always on when using the headphones which I find annoying for battery life purposes (on the phone), but it does help with some features. The app itself is your go-to hub for controlling every aspect of the headphones including EQ, codec, DSEE, noise cancellation tuning and much more.
Just getting your device paired is easy, turn it on, find your device in the Bluetooth menu and you are good to go with basic settings.
Connectivity:
This model has been upgraded to support Bluetooth 6.0. Multi-device pairing is supported so switching between, for example, your phone and laptop is seamless once set up. I tested with AAC and also LDAC and the connection was strong in both setups with 24-bit 192Hz audio, never dropping the signal for me or buffering.
Sound Quality:
Amazing is the only way to say it. The 40mm drivers deliver all frequencies accurately and clearly. One song I like to test headphones with is Kore de E by Atarashi Gakko! The song is 24-bit (on supported services) and has lots of vocals, bass guitar, electric guitar plucking, trumpets, and chimes. It is great for picking out the details of a song. These headphones deliver every single detail in crystal clear quality with no frequency being overpowering, just well leveled. Obviously if you want more control, the EQ provides that as needed.
As for ANC, it is some of the best in the industry. It is hard to hear anything in any environment when ANC is fully on. Sony has a great feature where you can put your hand over the right earcup, and it will seamlessly switch to transparent mode for talking or hearing something outside. It is kind of shocking how well that feature works. You can also turn on conversation detection in the app, but it is somewhat annoying if you like to sing with the music. Transparent mode is good, but I wouldn’t say it is the best as it still sounds somewhat filtered.
Comfort and usability:
These are wonderful as you can fold them and put them in their compact case. The earcups are great for long wearing sessions and do not get too hot or feel tight. When not wearing, the headphones are comfortable around the neck and fold flat there as needed.
Controls are great. I am generally more of a fan of buttons as opposed to touch surfaces, but this headphone does it right. On the right earcup, tap it to pause/play, swipe up or down to change volume, or forward/backward to change songs. It works great.
Battery:
I couldn’t run the battery down on these in my week of testing! They are rated at 27 hours which is a bit less than the original model, but I fail to see any way to run them out unless you are running them constantly with LDAC and ANC on.

Good for most, not the highest end
on September 7, 2026
Posted by: psyclopps
This TV is great for anyone who wants the basics in an overall good tv. A good UI, functionality and a huge screen in a lightweight package (for the screen size). What it is missing up front is high end video features such as Dolby Vision, dimming zones (for deep blacks), high refresh rates and VRR for games. It is a solid TV overall though.
Setup:
Unboxing is obviously a task with such a large TV. Be sure to find a large flat surface/table and lay some cardboard and blankets across it so you can attach the feet as needed. If you are mounting the TV, the usual 400x400 VESA wall mount is supported. The TV weighs about 40 pounds without the stand, which in my opinion is pretty light for a huge TV. But be sure to have a buddy to lift it with so you do not damage the screen.
The setup process is great overall using the Roku TV interface. The only issue I came across was more in the Roku App where it denied access to my account due to the UI having issues on my phone, that may have been an isolated incident though. Otherwise, after logging into the Roku App, it can tie your phone into your Roku account and set up all your TV apps into the TV easily.
Once it is set up, there is so much customization which is one of the great aspects of Roku OS. From little penguins flying into the sky in the arctic, to sci-fi beeps and bloops, there are so many aspects which can be customized with the smooth interface.
TV Experience:
I tested this out with a few Apple TV and Netflix shows and movies, as they tend to put out the highest bitrate for streaming in my opinion. A great demo movie for black levels and HDR content is Ruby Gillman, Teenage Kraken. Many of the scenes have extremely dark backgrounds and bright colorful glowing effects throughout the movie. I was surprised that the best output I could get out of this was HDR 10+, which is great, but slightly lacking in my opinion compared to Dolby Vision. It still looks great, but the brightness did not seem as bright as other displays may provide. You will be limited to 60Hz for gaming content.
Black levels are overall well controlled, even with a direct lit LED backlight (no zone dimming). The only time I saw this to be a big issue is in a gray menu screen such as you are viewing menus on an Apple TV. The gray menu shows the problems the backlight may experience (pictured) as the edges of the display appear uneven.
Sound:
As expected from TV speakers, the sound is ok, not amazing. It is likely better if you wall mount, it as the speakers will have something to bounce off of. I highly suggest hooking up a soundbar and subwoofer to this TV.
Connectivity:
The connection options are fine for most people. There are three HDMI connections, 1 Ethernet connection, 1 Optical output, 1 USB-A 2.0 and Wi-Fi comes in at Wi-Fi 5 (5Ghz, or AC). All inputs are on the back.
The remote control is rather nice as it has a great layout in my opinion. It takes some getting used to just due to the location of the back buttons and the volume buttons, but once committed to muscle memory, it makes sense.

Way better than expected, my new favorite tracker
on August 16, 2026
Posted by: psyclopps
I wasn’t sure what to expect with this fitness watch as I have never owned an amazefit product before. The product description always appeared somewhat subpar in my opinion, but after using it for a week, it has become my favorite fitness / smart watch. For what I considered an entry level fitness watch, you get much more out of this device than expected.
Pros:
Long battery life
Great fitness tracking
Good sleep tracking
Great style
Sapphire glass
Good Zepp app
Cons:
No NFC
No EKG
Limited set of apps
First impressions:
The device build quality cuts a few corners but keeps things feeling premium overall. First, the glass is sapphire so you should have no issue keeping it looking nice over its lifespan. The frame and the clasps for the band appear to be stainless steel, but the body (where the buttons reside) appears to be plastic. This is no issue so long as the device holds up, and it keeps it light. The strap is very flexible but is easy to make too tight so I recommend you put it on a little more loosely than you think it needs to be as it will hug your wrist very well at a low tension. I have what I consider medium - small sized wrists, the 45mm design fits perfectly and looks great. The screen is a bit on the smaller side for a 45mm watch, but it is plenty bright and usable.
Fitness:
I have been very impressed by the fitness features of this watch; it matches what you might find in something which costs much more. First, it includes 5ATM resistance, so you will have no issue with swimming or running in the rain with this watch. All the basic health tracking features are here including heart rate, SPO2, VO2, stress tracking, skin temp and so on. The only feature I wish it had is an EKG sensor, but I can live without that (obviously an issue if you need this for tracking heart issues). GPS seems highly accurate and it supports five different GPS types. Best of all, as it is not using any software made by Google or Apple, the ZeppOS onboard integrates very nicely with both Google Health, Apple Health and Strava.
Sleep tracking:
I wore it most nights since getting it and it provides useful results. The time asleep appears to be in line with my other devices I use alongside it. One surprise I found is that it does a great job at tracking Hypopnea (sleep apnea). I have it and issue a CPAP. The CPAP results are pretty much in line with what the watch Zepp app tells me for avg occurrences per night. Keep in mind this is “suspected” instances and not a medical tracking device for such use, but it can be used to help diagnose.
Battery:
Battery is outstanding. I have only charged it once in the week and it was at around 50% by that point. Battery use will obviously change based on your usage, but it is rated at 12 days. Various settings and use of GPS are very much going to influence the battery drain, but I found on days with lots of health tracking including GPS, the watch will go down just under 10% per day.
Smartwatch usage:
As it is not using WearOS or WatchOS, I was surprised how functional ZeppOS is. The appearance of the watch interface is most like watchOS in my opinion, so if you have a device using that, you will quickly adjust. It is not quite as smooth as ZeppOS is designed for low power usage, every function works very well. One restriction is you will not find many apps to download (there is a small store), but amazefit did a great job keeping the watch fully functional for necessary applications like timers, trackers, alarms, calling features, etc. One thing I like is that there are four buttons, people who are familiar with Garmin devices will like this as one set of buttons controls selection/back and the other set controls up and down scrolling. The touch screen works just fine, but when your hands are sweaty, it is raining, or you are wearing gloves, buttons are where it is at.
Extras:
Since I could talk about this watch all day, here are a few items I felt were worth mentioning but don’t want to write a paragraph about.
Maps are included in the watch which is great for routing in the form of base maps, contour maps and ski maps. The size of these is limited so you might need to update and download prior to travel. Transfer is over Bluetooth so 13MB for example can take a few minutes.
Podcasts can be added via RSS feeds or OMPL files in the app as can to-do list entries, MP3 files, voice memos, jet lag tracking, training plans. These are all based on the app/watch sync so don’t expect much in the way of external integrations.
Watch faces are plentiful, a voice control option is present, but there is NO NFC.

Ideal for portable gaming or work
on August 11, 2026
Posted by: psyclopps
This laptop is outstanding for power, portability and even professional style. It is hard to imagine using anything else that works in all settings from play to work.
Unboxing:
The laptop includes the basics in a nice box. There is a huge 250-300W power supply, the laptop and basic documentation. As with most Windows laptops, log in, install the initial updates and you will be ready to go. I recommend you take time after setup to allow any updates to install as you will get better out of the box functionality with some of the apps like the “Nvidia App” or the latest BIOS.
Initial impressions:
The laptop is very well built with very little flex in the keyboard and the screen. The screen can be opened with one hand, most of the body is metal. The looks are largely professional, and I wouldn’t mind using this in an office setting or during a meeting. The only time you will know this is a gaming PC is if you have the slash lighting turned on (I usually leave it off since I can’t see it as the user) or if you took a look at the keyboard which has a more “gaming” type font to it. Make sure to set up Windows Hello for easy secure face authentication using infrared similar to Apple FaceID.
Performance:
Starting with storage, the NVME appears to be PCI Express 4 with read speeds topping out at 6853 MB/s read and 5366 MB/s write in my tests. This is plenty fast for pretty much everything you might throw at it, though it would be nice to see PCI Express 5.
With a Panther Lake processor and a discreet RTX 5070 Ti, this thing screams at pretty much anything you throw at it. Applications load instantly, battery life lasts forever (on internal GPU), every game will run at or close to 60+ FPS maxed out full resolution. Most surprisingly, I rarely heard the fan as I feel ASUS has a nice setup for cooling inside combined with the efficient x86 processor. The only time it ran audibly was when gaming or doing heavy AI work with a LLM. For gaming it is no issue, but the only limitations you may see are related to RAM. With 16GB of DDR5 performing at 8533 MT/s, and the video card being capped at 12GB, you may be limited by the size of a LLM you can load or how much heavy duty work you may be able to do with large projects. Otherwise, for photo editing, coding/development, gaming and everyday tasks I had no issues.
Benchmarks:
Wild Life Extreme: 23831 points at 142.7 FPS
Steel Nomad: 3432 points at 34.33 FPS
Steel Nomad Light: 14412 points at 106.76 FPS
Geekbench 7 CPU: 2507 Single Core / 16685 Multi-Core
Geekbench 7 OpenCL: 140595
Geekbench 7 CUDA: 206240
Geekbench AI Single / Half / Quantized:
OpenVINO NPU 4262/38482/60019
OpenVINO CPU 4483/4162/9017
OpenVINO GPU 8870/26472/32530
Cinebench 2026:
GPU 62226
CPU Multi 4357
Games:
Halo CE (2026) - 45-50 fps balanced DLSS Ultra settings
Forza Horizon 6 - 60-70 fps Extreme+RT settings
Aliens: Fireteam Elite - 70-120 FPS (no DLSS) Max settings
Display:
The display works at an outstanding 2880x1800 resolution. This surprised me as at 14”, it is somewhat overkill. This resolution was great for development work as you can comfortably do some side-by-side windows with no issue. Some tips I suggest for this screen, change the settings from 200% to 175% scaling as 200% is a waste of this resolution. 175% was comfortable to my eyes, 150% may be too small. Also, ensure you turn on HDR (not on battery unless you don’t mind the extra drain) to get the full brightness and color space available from this display. It will look stunning in games, movies and any creative work.
Audio:
Asus is well known for having some of the best speakers on any PC. This is no different here. The speakers may be small on a 14” laptop, but they sound huge! The audio was impressive and sounded like it belonged on a 16” laptop with plenty of bass and detail.
Keyboard / Trackpad:
The keyboard is one of my favorites. First, I suggest you go into the Armoury Crate app and adjust the lighting of the keyboard if you do not want it cycling every color. Set it to white or pick a color. They keys have a perfect amount of key travel (not too shallow) and plenty of space for accurate typing. The backlight is bright with even lighting making the keys easy to see if needed.

The mouse is precise and has a glass texture, but lacks haptic feedback as it is a traditional diving board style. This is no issue for me as I do a tap as opposed to a press when I use it, but if you prefer a press, it may be disappointing in this regard.
Repairability:
The laptop only has two modules (pictured) available to be replaced, the Wi-Fi card and the single NVME slot. If you are comfortable cloning your SSD, you can easily upgrade the included 1TB hard drive, but this is plenty of storage for most in my opinion and should last a good while as is. For information purposes, the Wireless card is a Intel BE211 which is 2x2, 320 MHz supporting up to 5.8 Gbps Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6.
When opening the bottom, be aware there are two hidden screws (also pictured) under plastic caps toward the rear which blend in with the rest of the device. One of the front screws is also a captive screw so be sure to not try to get that one out, this design is similar across pretty much every Asus laptop. All major parts I could see such as the battery, fans, and heat pipes appear to be modular and able to replace if they ever break. .

Great for travel and portability
on July 11, 2026
Posted by: psyclopps
The Kobo Clara is a great eBook reader if you value lightweight portability. Being on the entry level of the Kobo e-readers, it is missing some premium features, but nothing that will impact usability too much.
Pros:
- Quick UI
- Great design
- Small size
- Quality screen
- Ample storage
Cons:
- Recessed screen
- No ambient light sensor
- Plastic body (maybe a Pro or Con)
Setup:
The device is extremely easy to set up. Charge it if needed, power it up, and login with your phone to your Kobo account (or type your information in). After this, your library will sync up and be ready to use. I recommend you also pair your library account with the Overdrive login to gain additional functionality. I also recommend this with your Instapaper account if you have one.
Design:
The device is made from recycled plastic. I see this as a pro, but some may see it as a con if they are looking for a more premium build. The build quality is solid, and the rear side has Kobo’s signature unique textures which enhances grip. The power button is nicely located on the top rear as well preventing accidental touch.
The main gripe I have with the design is the screen recessed from the bezel. This is not a huge deal, but I greatly prefer the screen to be flush with the bezels as it makes swiping and touching more forgiving. It is not a huge deal though.
Use:
The screen is great quality. I prefer B&W eInk screens as they have optimal contrast and clarity, as color layers can decrease visibility and add a “screen-door” effect in my opinion. Touch functionality is very responsive, and the UI is fast so even typing is possible when taking a note or entering a search.
The device has 16GB of storage which is plenty for 90% of people. The only people who might need more are anyone who loads their readers with comics and large PDF documents. Sideloading is quick if you are moving anything from 3rd party software such as Calibre or Adobe Digital Editions
Battery life is extremely long, and I am unable to put an exact number on how many hours you will get as I have yet to drain my first charge.
The Kobo library is vast, and you are likely to find any book or eBook you are looking for there. The only issue I have is their store always tends to have a bias towards romance books in my opinion compared to other stores. If you know what you are looking for it is a non-issue, but if you rely on the algorithm to suggest titles for you, it is a bit lacking.
The reader also has Bluetooth support for audiobooks you purchase or sideload. I do not use this much but it is nice to know the functionality is there.
Backlight:
The backlight works very well and provides extreme brightness or turns off completely. The color changes by time of day from blue to red as the night progresses. There is no ambient light sensor on this device though which is a con as it means if you want to make any changes to brightness, you must tap and adjust manually each time. It is not hard to do but one should be aware as you are likely to go to bed, turn on the device and be briefly blinded by the light until you turn it down.

SynopsisThe last time the earth was ravaged, animals were saved two by two in a massive ark, peacefully sailing to a new beginning, or so the story goes. This time, we're not so lucky. With a massive asteroid hurtling toward the planet, a select few were chosen to inhabit modern-day arks ~ pods buried deep within the earth's core. You were chosen. You were buried alive. And you rose from the ground to face your worst nightmare. Hordes of mutants killing without a thought, bandit gangs wreaking havoc throughout the already defunct wasteland, a looming Authority seizing maniacal power and holding secrets ~ this is what remains of humanity. The world as you know it is gone, but if any world is to stand in its place, there's only one person left who can raise it up from the ashes ~ you. That is, if you can survive the Rage.Step up to the challenge and climb into the wasteland in the first-person shooter that flings you to the edge of the earth and the brink of extinction. Rage pits you against the odds in a desolate world in which you were selected for survival ~ just to face death at every turn. To redeem humanity, you must master a massive arsenal of exotic wingsticks, sentry bots, bomb cars and other powerful weapons and fearlessly wage war against the evil forces overtaking your planet. Fire through heart-pounding first-player shooting action, rip through the wasteland in high-octane vehicle chases and turn your car into your most deadly weapon ~ you have to play dirty if you want to live. Experience the mass decay with every painfully realistic detail with the id Tech 5 engine and Megatexture technology, firing at 60 frames per second to make you feel as if the world has crumbled around you. And when you take the battle online, the devastating action really does stretch around the world. You've survived the apocalypse. Now comes the real battle.

Game was not tested properly
By skullboy88 from Los Angeles, CA
First of all the reason for such a low rating is that the game is not playable. Right out the box. Now, I have been building pc's for over 10 years and have sunk hundreds of dollars into my rig to play the most demanding games. And I do. The problem is that ID software sent out a game to the public that is not finished. Google, rage graphics problems and you will find a magnitude of arcticles about poor graphics bad drivers and other issues. AMD and Nvidia have been working for a driver patch but reports from many say they do not work to fix the tearing and poor rendering . People are paying $60.00 for a pc game. Dont you think it should work right away without having to wait for a patch?

Capture up to 1440p video with this Nextbase 522GW dash camera. Alexa enables hands-free control through voice commands, and Bluetooth 4.2 and Wi-Fi technologies sync with compatible smartphones for quick access to important footage. This Nextbase 522GW dash camera has ports for connecting compatible camera modules for easy expansion.
 

How does Alexa give you directions to your desired destination? Do they show up on the screen, or is this Alexa feature not available on this dash cam?

Alexa is present but it does not integrate into any build in GPS as far as I can tell. There are other devices such as the Garmin speak which combines a dash cam with Garmin + Alexa navigation via a skill but there is no screen on that device.

Garmin Speak~ Plus with Amazon Alexa is what you love about Amazon Alexa, now in your vehicle. Use voice control for hands-free access to music, news, navigation and more. Plus, a built-in dash cam gives you forward collision and lane departure warnings.
 

Can you please tell me more about the dash cam. Can it be controlled by voice or a remote button? Where does it store the videos and how can I get them? Through wifi or only sd card?

It is simply always recording. There is a separate app you must download if you want to view on your phone. It will connect to your phone via wi-fi but you can take out the Micro SD card if you want to plug the videos in to your computer. There is an overlay option which tells the drivers speed and a little more info as well. It also records in car audio.

If maps stay up to date , is the system using my data plan ? Garmin & TomTom use satellites , what does this system use ? Does this system in any way use my data plan and if so , how ?

I did a trip to a national park using this device. It appears there are no downloaded maps as the moment I lost my data connection the device didn't know what to do. It seems it is always using your data plan as long as you are using pretty much any of its features other than dashcam.

With all these features, Does it scan the road and next to the road for objects such as DEER ? If so will it alert you ?

From my experience, no. There is only lane detection warning and collision detection warning as added safety features.

Is there any way to do talk to text in tablet mode? Or make the keyboard swype at least?

There is no dictation function but there is a few keyboard settings that could help. You could configure the touch keyboard in split layout so you can use only your thumbs on each side of the screen to type. It takes a little practice but is useable when you get used to it. There is a also a "Scribble" mode where you can write on the screen and it will turn it into text.
