Google Chrome is loved by many as it ties together the conveniences of working and living with a Google account into a browser you can use across several devices, keeping your data and passwords synced. But on desktops and laptops, Chrome is a notorious RAM hog that takes up a lot of memory and slows down machines. Microsoft’s Windows 10 2004 update, rolling out worldwide to Windows 10 machines now, introduces something called Segment Heap memory management improvements that can reduce RAM use to some apps....

If you’ve got Wi-Fi 6-compatible tech in the home, the D-Link Covr X1862 mesh Wi-Fi system could be a worthwhile upgrade – especially because it’s surprisingly affordable. Design & Build The Covr mesh Wi-Fi system comes in two configurations – a two-unit system, reviewed here, or a three-unit bundle. Whichever you opt for, the design of the units themselves is identical, sporting a small, round-edged form factor discreet enough to sit on a shelf without drawing much attention to itself....

A report in the Chinese-language Economic Daily News of Taipei said Dell has already notified major Taiwanese contract manufacturers such as Hon Hai Precision Industry and Quanta Computer to prepare to begin production of desktop and notebook PCs based on AMD microprocessors. Taiwanese companies normally gain a first glimpse of such product changes because they build a lot of the systems sold by Dell and other PC companies. Rumours that Dell, the world’s largest PC seller, might start using AMD microprocessors have been around for years, but the company has never taken the plunge because of a special relationship with Intel, its sole chip supplier....

This is a serious laptop with an incredible specification. The huge 17.3in screen makes this laptop a perfect replacement for a desktop machine. As well as the impressive size it’s full 1080p HD quality and is LED backlit for better overall image balance and quality. There’s a Blu-ray player in the two top-end models and all versions come with the ability to burn and Play DVDs. All models of the Inspiron 17r come with a powerful graphics card with a hefty 2GB of memory....

What’s certain is that if you, or your business, needs a laptop to work on all day away from a plug, yet with a certain robust portability, then we can thoroughly recommend the Dell Latitude 12 7000 ultrabook – despite it not having a catchy name. Our specific review model was the Latitude E7270. Dell Latitude 12 7000 review: Price The Dell Latitude 12 7000 is firmly in high-end territory when it comes to price....

There are over 10 models of Devolo Magic to choose from (from the basic Magic 1 LAN to the flagship Magic 2 Wifi 6 Mesh), and we untangle the multiple choices for you in this review. For the very fastest wired and wireless network, the Magic 2 WiFi 6 Mesh kits (Starter Kit, £299.99) mean you can turn off your router’s wireless signal to create a full WiFi 6 Mesh network, unrestrained by the router’s likely slower Wi-Fi protocol....

iMac deals The nearly 7 percent discount shaves off at least £72 if you choose the basic configuration on the 21.5in iMac, which is usually £1,049. The specs on this mid-2017 model include a 2.3GHz dual-core Intel Core i5 processor, 8GB RAM, and a 1TB hard drive. It also comes with the Magic Mouse 2 and Magic Keyboard. With the discount, the price comes down to £977, which is less than the price direct from Apple....

Release date and platforms Dishonored 2 hit shelves in the UK (and the rest of the world) 11 November 2016. Dishonored 2 is available on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. Deals and pricing Gameplay and features So, what can you expect in terms of gameplay in Dishonored 2? Unlike in the first Dishonored game, there are two main characters to play as; Emily Kaldwin and Corvo Attano. Corvo Attano is the guard-turned-assassin we all remember, and Emily Kaldwin is the daughter of the late Empress Jessamine Kaldwin, who you may remember was assassinated at the beginning of the first Dishonored game (and Emily is Corvo’s daughter too, incidentally)....

The two power banks are very similar in size, with this Omaker S-X5 ever so slightly larger (at 158x23x63mm versus the Lumsing’s 138x59x20mm), but heavier at 290g versus 159g. Whereas the Lumsing has a sleek gloss white or black casing with silver painted plastic edging, this Omaker is a matt white candy bar-style device that’s easier to grip and feels sturdier, but lacks that premium feel. Functionality is more important than style, of course, and here the Omaker S-X5 wins out....

This Samsung official tool has much more to offer than just a data transfer feature. However, it is not commonly used today because of the other free options available. For that reason alone, today we will focus on Samsung Kies, its features, pros and cons, system requirement, and alternative tools. What is Samsung Kies? Kies is a proprietary Samsung free software application to communicate between a Samsung mobile phone and a computer, usually through a wired USB connection....

With eight ships available and around 50 upgrades that you pick up during the game, there’s also a great looking online multiplayer mode to fully reap carnage on your enemies. Multiplayer has a simple dogfight mode, but the best part looks like fleet battles, the main ‘multi-stage’ mode that has you and your online pals plot, plan and execute a battle over its many phases. All the action takes place in the cockpit and the game will hopefully be a worthy addition to the Star Wars canon after the success of older franchises like Rogue Squadron and Battlefront....

Además, el tema de la privacidad cuando usamos Internet se está convirtiendo en una preocupación bastante común. Aunque pensamos que cuando visitamos distintas páginas web todo es privado, esto no suele ser así. Tu proveedor de Internet sabe dónde te conectas y en algunos países, sobre todo en Estados Unidos, esta información puede incluso venderse con fines comerciales. Estas son las mejores VPN que puedes instalar este año. Los sitios web utilizan rastreadores para seguirte y por eso, por ejemplo, a menudo verás anuncios de productos que has visto hace unos minutos....

Mathew Firsht, managing director at Applause Store Productions, which finds audiences for TV shows such as Top Gear and the Big Brother evictions, sued former school friend Grant Raphael for libel and misuse of private information after he created a Facebook profile for Firsht containing fake information regarding his sexual and political preferences. He also set up a further page relating to Applause Store Productions, entitled ‘Has Mathew Firsht lied to you?...

The Fitbit Aria 2 is a smart scale that measures your weight, body fat percentage and BMI (Body Mass Index). It wirelessly syncs these stats with your Fitbit Dashboard and mobile app, and is a great partner for the Fitbit activity trackers. The company now sells a cheaper set of scales: the Fitbit Aria Air, for £49 / $49. These lack the body fat percentage reading, which is a better metric than BMI for evaluating your weight health, and require you to have your phone with you when you weigh yourself....

The Charge 4 matches the activity tracker with the top smartwatches. In some ways, the main difference is the monochrome touchscreen. The Charge 4 has everything the Charge 3 had and makes the tracker even better. Even owners of the excellent Fitbit Versa 2 smartwatch will look enviously at some of the new features Fitbit’s tracker brings to the table. The Charge 4 debuted Active Zone Minutes (AZM), a personalised fitness challenge that counts all activities that push your heart rate up – be that running, weights, cycling or dancing....

It’s a budget design and a conservative choice at that. At 36 mm thick, it out-slabs even Asus’ desktop replacement 17-incher, and tips the balances at just over 2.4 kg. That’s not untypical for 15-inch laptops in recent memory, but somehow seems even heavier here, we’d guess because of the chunky proportions. Build quality is tougher than much of the competition at this price, tough-feeling black plastic throughout with an eggshell patina that should shrug off daily use....

Fortunately, Samsung is here to show Apple how it’s done. Today the company unveiled new models in its affordable Galaxy A-series range, including the A53 5G which, at £399/$449, is a close competitor to Apple’s £419/$429 iPhone SE. It hardly needs to be pointed out that Android phones at that price all offer slicker designs and better screens than the iPhone SE, but what sets the Galaxy A53 apart is that it also plays to Apple’s traditional strengths, packing in flagship luxuries such as stereo speakers, IP67 water-resistance, and long-term software support....
