In early 2019, Sony launched the flagship Xperia 1 with a large 4K cinema-wide display. In September, it gave consumers the smaller Xperia 5. The Xperia 5 is considered by Sony to be a flagship, and at £700 it is certainly priced like one. The only problem is […]
Dell just reached out with a huge list of Black Friday deals. There’s no way I’ve got time to go through and tidy up this huge list, so I’ve posted the press release verbatim below. Pull up a chair, make a cup of tea and enjoy. Hopefully there’s […]
Vodafone has announced its Black Friday deals, and unlike many other companies that have much longer promotional periods, these deals expire end-of-play Monday. There’s quite a lot on offer, which are listed below in as simple a format as possible. All deals, bar one, end Monday December 2nd […]

Oppo only introduced the Reno range in April this year and already it has built up quite a portfolio. Then in October, it launched the Reno 2 in the UK. You’ve probably already seen my photo galleries (here and here and here), showing off the impressive camera, but […]
Roku has announced the UK availability of four Roku TVs, built by Hisense, on Friday November 29th at Argos. Announced back at IFA, these 4K HDR TVs come with RokuOS, a smart TV platform considered by many to be the best due to its ability to run just […]
