Rivals season 2 review: Jilly Cooper bonkbuster is still as steamy as ever — but troubling tensions take over in first three-episode release

Image
Dame Jilly Cooper may no longer be with us, but her legacy continues to speak for itself — and frankly, Rivals season 2 on Hulu and Disney+ is the perfect tribute to the bonkbusting chaos that's synonymous with her name. Picking up shortly after where we left off in season one, our Rutshire ensemble's collective horniness has turned somewhat sour. Cameron (Nafessa Williams) is lying low after being convinced she's killed her boss, Tony (David Tennant), after battering him with a TV award in self-defense. Lothario Rupert (Alex Hassell) has immediately jumped to Cameron's defense, which puts his on-off relationship with neighbor Taggie (Bella Maclean) back in the shade. Meanwhile, Lizzie (Katherine Parkinson) and Freddie (Danny Dyer) are desperately trying to hide their feelings for one another, while Sarah (Emily Atack) is trying to climb the ranks at Tony's Corinium TV stati...

I’ve been testing controllers for half a decade, and not a single budget option has impressed me like the 8BitDo Pro 3

8BitDo Pro 3: One-minute review In the half-decade or so I’ve been testing gaming hardware, I’ve loved almost every 8BitDo product I’ve reviewed. The 8BitDo Pro 3 is no exception. In fact, I’d go so far as to say it’s the best budget-friendly controller on the market today. Yes, even beating out other desirable choices like the GameSir Nova Lite . Contrary to its appearance, the 8BitDo Pro 3 isn’t just the Pro 2 in a particularly slim-fitting trenchcoat. It looks identical to its predecessor, sure, but 8BitDo has refined the newer gamepad to what feels like its logical conclusion. TMR (Tunnel Magnetoresistance; essentially an improvement over Hall effect ) thumbsticks, swappable magnetic face buttons, micro switch trigger locks, charging dock, and two additional remappable buttons for a total of four are all additions here. Then there’s the d-pad, which, despite being a simpler cardinal design, i...

BenQ RD280UG review: A monitor that makes 3:2 displays cool again, and I love the built-in lighting

Image
I’m a nerd when it comes to monitors. And, a bougie, particular, and spoiled nerd at that. I have had the great honor of working with and owning some of the best-of-the-best for years now. For this monitor, I’ll be honest, I expected it to be a subpar tool that I'd try and love, only to realize I would rather go back to what I know and love. I thought it would be one of those things where I think “ok, on paper it’s good, but I’ll just give it a shot to see if it’s any good in person.” Well, it’s been 128 days since I put this monitor on one of my heavily used setups, and now I can’t imagine ever taking it off my desk. I spend 5+ days a week, around 45+ hours total, on-site at a larger church where I serve on staff. I sit or stand at my desk there for a good chunk of that time, pouring over whatever system I am working on at that given time. I’m pulling up documents, databases, programming too...

The Division Resurgence proves that looter-shooters can work supremely on phones — and it’s converted me to being a mobile gamer

Image
Now that two of us from the TechRadar Gaming team have spent hours in free-to-play third-person action looter-shooter Tom Clancy's The Division: Resurgence - and I, as the big Division fan, am still committing hours to it - we are happy to report that it's a terrific mobile game and proof that big AAA series from console and PC can successfully make the jump over to the small screen to produce something excellent. Review info Platform reviewed: Android Available on: Android, iOS, PC Release date: March 31, 2026 Every element of the core Division experience is here. The systems work and are easily navigable on a different scale, the combat is still fun and engaging, and the loot-and-improve loop is just as moreish. Combine that with a story that’s relatively plain but one that perfectly complements the events of the first game and will be best enjoyed by existing fans, and a well-realized...

FlexiSpot C7 Morpher review: An office chair that blends into every other, but perhaps that's the point

Image
FlexiSpot continues to shine with great options across a wide range of pricing tiers, making it a bit difficult to pin down a higher-priced offering or a budget option. The C7 Morpher leans towards the higher end of mid-tier - expect to pay around $800 / £800 when not on sale. It's a nice enough ergonomic office chair, but it blends in a bit more than some of the best office chairs I've reviewed at this price, looking not too dissimilar from other 'serious' and 'professional' seats. Depending on what you want and your own design and styling preferences, this may be preferred. I know I prefer simple black or dark grey chairs, unless it’s an accent or statement piece, but that usually comes with elegance. Some people prefer fun colors to liven up their workspace, while others prefer a specific color to match what they already have (or to avoid clashing). The C7 Morper can f...
