If you are in the market for an affordable Android tablet that refuses to behave like one, the new Poco Pad X1 might be worth a serious look. It is not a flagship tablet, but it also does not act like a watered-down compromise. Instead, it aims squarely at people […]
This is the Note Air5 C Color ePaper Notebook, BOOX’s latest digital scribble machine, and the clearest sign yet that we should stop calling laptops “notebooks”. A notebook is for writing, doodling, and pretending to be productive. That is the Note Air5 C. It is a digital notebook with actual […]
If you ever need a real-life example of the saying “adversity breeds strength”, look at Huawei. With all the nonsensical sanctions born out of paranoia and trust issues, the so-called sanctions placed on them spurred phenomenal growth.

There are tablets, and then there’s the kind of tablet that looks like it’s moonlighting as an e-reader while pretending to be a productivity tool. That’s exactly what the new TCL TAB 8 NXTPAPER 5G is—a compact, 8.7-inch (22.1 cm) slate that tries to be everything everywhere all at once. […]

With Huawei, everything is going the smartphone way. It is not just the TV that has adopted the way of the smartphone; the latest iPad mini competitor, the MatePad Mini, is also marketed as a “small tablet, big smartphone.” And smartphone indeed it is because you can make calls on […]
Tablets used to be the “forgotten middle child” between phones and laptops. But Samsung wants you to stop using them as oversized Netflix machines and start treating them like serious tools again.
