Apple iPhone 17e review: one lens, two buyers

Flagship silicon and a screen from an older era, wrapped around a single camera. The iPhone 17e knows exactly who it is for, and the list is short. There is a version of the smartphone conversation that never seems to reach the people it should. We spend our time arguing about refresh rates and camera… Continue reading Apple iPhone 17e review: one lens, two buyers

OnePlus Nord CE 6 review: One big idea, massive battery

OnePlus built the Nord CE 6 around one enormous battery and let every other choice fall into place behind it. The result is a phone with the courage of a single conviction.

Finally Anchored: Beats Powerbeats Fit Review

After years of fiddling, the Beats Powerbeats Fit are the only earbuds that stay put where every other flagship failed me.

iPhone 17 Pro review: Everyday life, now sharper, cooler and more confident

There is a certain rhythm to reviewing an iPhone late. By the time our unit arrives, usually bought by someone in the office rather than sent by Apple, the world has already watched every unboxing video and camera comparison possible. So this review began in the familiar way. Someone asked, “Can I borrow it for… Continue reading iPhone 17 Pro review: Everyday life, now sharper, cooler and more confident
