Garmin Fenix 9 Pro: one-minute review (Image credit: Future / Julia Clarke) When the Fenix 8 finally dropped in 2024, it quickly earned a reputation as the best Garmin GPS watch money can buy, even if that meant parting with a lot of money. I gave it a thorough test on the 11-day trek to Everest Base Camp, and with Garmin’s full suite of training features, a bright AMOLED display, microphone and speaker, plus an LED torch, there was no doubt that it was a big step up from the hugely popular Fenix 7. Last year, Garmin followed the Garmin Fenix 8 up with the Garmin Fenix 8 Pro , which took the winning formula and added built-in LTE cellular and inReach satellite connectivity for phone-free messaging and SOS alerts. I tested it at the Love Trails running festival this summer, and genuinely started to doubt the rumours that a Fenix 9 could really be imminent. What more could there possibly be to ad...

I didn’t think any analog keyboard could outperform my beloved SteelSeries — but then I tried Razer’s new magnetic Huntsman

Razer Huntsman V3 HE Magnetic Tenkeyless 8KHz: One-minute review The Huntsman line has long been a distinguished marque in the gaming keyboard world, and now this new analog addition seeks to add Hall Effect technology to the formula. It looks like a high-performing machine. The all-black colorway might be a little drab, but the floating keycaps and subtly brushed metal faceplate add touches of class. The bright RGB backlighting also helps to sell its gaming prowess. (Image credit: Future) What’s more, it’s built exceptionally well. That faceplate feels incredibly smooth and solid, while the keycaps are planted and have a great-feeling texture. At the same time, the V3 HE is also very light and compact — doubly impressive when you consider it includes quite a few navigation keys. Razer’s Synapse software can be used to customize the inputs of the V3 HE. You’ll find plenty of analog adjustments he...

ZipRecruiter is a popular job marketplace used by both candidates and employers. It’s known for its straightforward model, where candidates upload a resume and get matched with fitting jobs from a large employer pool. For employers, posting an available role on ZipRecruiter gets that posting syndicated to over 100 other job boards, helping them find candidates faster. How does ZipRecruiter compare to competitors?

I spent a very boring week with the Google Pixel 11 Pro XL — and I loved every second of it

Google Pixel 11 Pro XL: Two-minute review The Google Pixel 11 Pro XL, like the rest of the new Pixel 11 phones, doesn't offer much in terms of huge upgrades over the Pixel 10 line. The Pixel 11 Pro XL's design is only slightly altered versus that of the Pixel 10 Pro XL , with a new all-glass camera bump and an LED light in place of the temperature sensor that I'm convinced no one ever used anyway. The new color options are fun, including the matte black, despite yours truly being bored of black phones. Inside the 11 Pro XL is Google's new Tensor G6 processor. Storage options start at 256GB, then double to 512GB and 1TB. With the base model doubling in storage from last year's 128GB entry, Google didn't lower the price to match. Instead, you're going to pay $100 / £80 / AU$150 more than last year for the entry-level XL. Not only does it cost more to buy a Pixel phone, b...

I loved the minuscule weight of this Logitech gaming mouse — but I was even more surprised by its price

Logitech G305 X Superlight: Review The Logitech G305 X Superlight is a lightweight wireless gaming mouse. Logitech is no stranger to this category, but this addition to its G305 line aims to keep things relatively simple while including some surprisingly advanced features relative to its price point. It has quite a basic appearance, with a lack of branding or any odd contours. There’s an RGB light strip that looks too small to be effective, but it manages to brighten up the G305 X Superlight to an impressive degree — especially the black model — thanks to its wealth of animation customizations. (Image credit: Future) The overall build quality is great, too, adhering to Logitech’s typically high standards. Despite how light the unit is (it weighs just 61g), it’s surprisingly solid, lacking any flimsiness or hollowness. The plastic body is smooth with just a hint of texture that feels tactile and j...
