You must really hate photography if you’ve never heard of the Fujifilm X100V. The camera rose to popularity in 2023 with Instagram and TikTok users praising its portability and support for the HEIF (High Efficiency Image File) format. With all that hype came an increased demand that Fujifilm couldn’t keep up with. That’s why you’ll struggle to find the internet’s favourite camera these days. In some ways, the Fujifilm X100VI has a lot to live up to. While it has a successful blueprint to build from, it is also at risk of falling short and becoming nothing more than an…

With the prevalence of dual screen folding smartphones, it is no surprise that laptops, the OG folding device, have come to the party.

Throw in built-in Copilot features and the Asus pen 2.0 and there is virtually nothing…

It also goes toe-to-toe with flip phones that offer solo shooting thanks to its nifty built-in stand. There’s no question that the PowerShot would be handy for any vlogger but is it worth the extra pocket space? Handy…

Amazon’s AI chatbot Rufus, which has been trained on the site’s product catalogue, was unveiled this week Thursday. Some users already have early access to the AI shop assistant. They can be sure that this one knows its stuff but its task is also to make them spend more. According to Amazon, the conversational shopping companion lets customers define what to look for when searching product categories. If you want ‘earphones that help you focus’, it will tell you to look for a pair with active noise cancelling. Rufus will differentiate between two categories so you don’t purchase headphones when…

If you haven’t heard of the latest game that’s taken the world by storm, you need to get out from the rock you’ve been wedged under.

Any filmmaker worth their salt knows that if you want a compelling film you need dynamic footage. It’s no coincidence films are called moving pictures to begin with.

This should come as no surpise but we’re pretty keen on technology here at Stuff. And not just everyday tech like smartphones or laptops. New cars tend to pack quite a lot of tech in them these days. That’s usually in the form of big touchscreens for the infotainment system, Lithium batteries in the case of EVs, or a companion app that allows you to remotely control a few functions. Unfortunately for us (and any other tech enthusiast with a vehicle), most car manufacturers tend to see the infotainment system as an afterthought and aren’t willing to spend the cash…

You read correctly, we are reviewing the Huawei Watch Fit and not the recently launched Watch Fit 2. Older siblings will understand. Now that there’s a newer model, Mom has less to spend on you. But does the price drop make Huawei’s earlier sports watch a must-have to get you on track toward that summer body?

The fully touch 256 x 280-pixel display looks crisp and at certain angles like it covers the…
