iPhone 11 Pro review

Image
Two-minute review The iPhone 11 Pro is an iPhone that has people asking us "What's really changed?" It's a fair question because it looks very similar to the previous year's iPhone. But use the new cameras for a few minutes and both that question and inquisitive looks from doubters quickly fade. Before we dive into the details though it's worth noting that there's an iPhone 13 Pro out now that's taken the crown of the most advanced Apple phone on the market, along with its siblings, the standard iPhone 13 , tiny iPhone 13 mini , and large iPhone 13 Pro Max .  The iPhone 12 Pro is also still around, and while all the newer phones bring some improvements in specs and cameras as well as a design shift to flat edges and 5G connectivity, they're not huge reinventions. You should still get a lot of mileage out of the iPhone 11 Pro, which has seen big discounts in the years since it launched. Back on the subject of the iPhone 11 Pro, Apple put a lo...

Recensione Nintendo Switch OLED

E se si assume anche che si tratta di un pannello OLED, ecco che la differenza diventa enorme.  Un pannello OLED , significa, naturalment...

Nintendo Switch OLED

The instant I held the Nintendo Switch OLED in my hands, I knew that if I planned to continue playing Switch games in handheld or tabletop mode, I needed to upgrade to the new version. No, it’s not the fabled Nintendo Switch 4K, but this October 8-bound upgrade is the one that matters if you game on the go, away from the TV-tied docking station. There was no better demonstration of this than my time going hands-on with the new Nintendo console, blasting my way through early levels of the launch game Metroid Dread. The game, also due out October 8, is compatible with the old Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch Lite , which is good news since sold-out Nintendo Switch OLED pre-orders will make the new console hard to come by at first. (Image credit: Future) I found the larger 7-inch Switch OLED screen more immersive than I had anticipated before my hands-on time and, after four and a half years of using the bezel-heavy 6.2-inch original Switch with its dated LCD screen, I can’...
