Battlefield 6 review – An imperfect success
Following the rather disappointing launch of Battlefield 2042, it seems that those responsible were just as eager to right their wrongs as the fans longing for a return to what made previous entries in the franchise titans in the first-person shooter (FPS) pantheon. It’s only been a couple of months since Battlefield 6 launched, following
Check out Huawei’s new Nova 15 Ultra, plus a couple of slightly lesser phones
Huawei does most of its business in China, despite how prolific the brand seems. It shouldn’t be surprising that the new Nova 15 Ultra is arriving in that country first, but if you’re paying attention (as we always are), it’s a handy preview of what’s coming down the pipe for South Africa later. The company
Samsung also has Micro RGB TVs to show off at next year’s CES
Not to be outdone by its South Korean rival, Samsung has also announced a new lineup of micro RGB TV sets that will be showcased at CES 2026, just a few short weeks away. Technically, LG is following in Samsung’s footsteps here, as the brand first introduced its version of the tech to the market
FIFA games are back, and this time they’re streaming on Netflix
We were beginning to doubt whether we’d ever see the FIFA name return to the realm of video games after the football organisation cut ties with EA Sports back in 2022. It seems FIFA has been reluctant to dish out its license to just anybody, patiently awaiting the ‘right’ company to step in. Now, it has seemingly
The next frontier in space is closer than you think – welcome to the world of very low Earth orbit satellites
There are about 15,000 satellites orbiting the Earth. Most of them, like the International Space Station and the Hubble Telescope, reside in low Earth orbit, or LEO, which tops out at about 1,200 miles (2,000 kilometres) above the Earth’s surface. But as more and more satellites are launched into LEO – SpaceX’s Starlink internet constellation alone will eventually send many thousands more
GoPro MAX2 review – Pro flexibility, real memories, but not for casual users
Taking the GoPro MAX2 on holiday made one thing very clear very quickly: this is a proper camera, not a pocket gadget. I’m used to much smaller 360 and action cams — devices you barely notice in a bag. The MAX2 isn’t that. It’s bulkier, heavier, and unmistakably more ‘pro’. But once I started swimming,
LG to debut its new Micro RGB evo MRGB95 TV at CES 2026
There’s one thing you can always say about LG: It shows up. Early in 2026, the South Korean company will show up at CES with its new Micro RGB evo MRGB95 TV in tow. In typical style, LG isn’t keeping its TV, or the tech that’s inside it, any sort of secret. This is strange,
Avatar: Fire and Ash review – All smoke, no fire
We were among the minority who appreciated the narrative beats in 2022’s Avatar: The Way of Water, however skint they were. More important to the average moviegoer was seeing just what James Cameron had cooked up after more than a decade, and most left the theatre relatively pleased. Avatar: Fire and Ash is the third instalment
Meta begins testing its Reels-only ‘Instagram for TV’ app
Apparently, calling your mates into a huddle to stare blankly at a 6in screen as you scroll through Instagram Reels isn’t cool anymore. As such, Meta has announced ‘Instagram for TV’, which is exactly what you think it is. If you thought ‘a thinly-veiled attempt to cash in on the ever-shortening attention span crisis’, you
Dreame lifts off in search of Air Power with the launch of a new power bank
Here in South Africa, we mostly know Dreame in relation to its range of smart vacuum cleaners and other smart products, though it’s obvious that the Chinese brand has more than just gadgets on its mind. Well, there’s another device to add to the list of stuff the company makes: Meet the Air Power 17.
