-
Image
Nihon Falcom is on a real hot streak right now, and it’s showing no signs of slowing down with Trails in the Sky 2nd Chapter . The remake of 2006’s acclaimed Japanese role-playing game (JRPG), The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky SC, is packed full of excellent quality-of-life updates that are sure to delight veteran players and newcomers alike, with full English voice acting, a visual overhaul, and modernized combat. Review info Platform reviewed: PS5 Available on: PS5, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PC Release date: September 17, 2026 But just how good is Trails in the Sky 2nd Chapter ? Should you play it? Here are my thoughts after countless hours of gameplay. I absolutely loved this game’s predecessor, which launched last year and was among the best RPGs released in 2025. Yes, Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter was a phenomenon, supplying a beautiful blend of action and turn-based combat...

Corsair Harpoon V2 Wireless review

Corsair Harpoon V2 Wireless review: Two-minute review The Corsair Harpoon V2 Wireless is (as the name suggests) the second iteration of Corsair's Harpoon RGB Wireless , sporting a redesigned casing and improved internal components. Back when we reviewed the Harpoon RGB Wireless in 2019, we gave it a well-deserved four and a half stars, citing its excellent value for money, solid ergonomics, and good battery life. If I cast my gaze back seven years to the heady days of the pre-COVID era, I do remember wireless gaming mice being more of a luxury item, and the Harpoon brought this functionality to a wider audience thanks to its extremely competitive pricing. But times have changed, and it's now far easier to get your hands on a wireless gaming mouse from a household-name PC hardware brand without breaking the bank. Mice like the MSI Versa 300 Wireless 8K , Cooler Master MM311 , and Logitech ...

Image
Acquired by Oxylabs in 2024, Webshare continues to operate as an independent provider focused on budget-friendly and self-service proxy deployment. Rather than incorporating Oxylabs’ comprehensive scraping APIs or AI unblocking tools, Webshare maintains its own lean infrastructure, which counts over 80 million residential IPs and 400,000 datacenter proxies spanning 195 countries. Designed for individual users and organizations who need raw connection speed and protocol flexibility, the platform fulfills more than 650 billion proxy requests per month. Along with affordable pricing, there is a no-credit-card free tier for those who may be on the fence about what Webshare brings to the table. Webshare: Plans and Pricing Webshare offers a customizable pricing structure built upon a permanent free plan that provides 10 proxies with 1GB of monthly bandwidth and a full set of features (no credit card re...

RugOne Xsnap 7 Pro rugged phone & action cam review

RugOne Xsnap 7 Pro: 30-second review Launched at the Berlin IFA this year, the RugOne Xsnap 7 Pro fuses two well-known products into something genuinely new. In this case, those elements are the rugged Android smartphone and the small action camera. In this design, the two can be separated, giving you a rugged phone that can spawn an action camera, the Xsnap Go, whenever you need one. But ignoring that aspect for a moment, what does the Xsnap 7 Pro offer for those who just need a rugged Android phone? As rugged designs go, this one doesn’t have a massive battery, but it does have a decent processor in the Dimensity 9400, and with 12GB of RAM and 512GB of storage, the specifications are at the higher end of this scale. Also, even if you don’t use the detachable camera, the built-in cameras are decent and capable of good results. But the party trick is the tiny square camera that can be removed fro...

Nothing Headphone (1) Pro review: a strange case, but sonically not without merit

-

Nothing Headphone (1) Pro: Two-minute review I love an audio outfit that refuses to kowtow to the norm (no thinly disguised AirPods copies here) and instead forges ahead with unconventional and striking ideas — and not just visually, but within the driver count and feature set, too. Nothing's success in the audio and headphone arena is deliciously hit-and-miss. There have been some huge, long-term budget wins and an inaugural set of 'close, but no cigar' cans that made us yearn for an update to see if the relatively young tech brand (born of OnePlus' co-founder Carl Pei in 2021) could fix things. And you know, it certainly could… But here we are, smash-hit affordable second set in the bag (albeit an actual bag, and one that reminded me of swimming lessons in grade school) and on to a third set of headphones from Nothing, this time in the much trickier premium space. Can the Nothin...
