Based in Lithuania, Hostinger is one of the largest hosting providers catering to more than 29 millions users daily. Part of the reason for its continued success is its performance and devotion to customer service.  The company claims an average response time of 143ms for its WordPress sites, and an average response time of 50s should you need any help. As admirable as these claims are, our experience was quite different on the Single Shared Hosting plan, and more at par with the shared plans of other hosting providers such as HostGator , as the average speed was closer to 800ms. Even so, Hostinger offers lucrative features such as SSL certificate and Cloudflare protection if you purchase a year-long subscription. In addition to offering an email account, the Cloudflare protection also sets Hostinger apart from most of its peers, which reserve both these features for the higher priced plans.  Apart from 24/7 chat support, you’ll most likely find relevant answers to you...

Two-minute review Nanoleaf makes some of the best smart light systems in the business, but with the latest Nanoleaf Lines, the company has a clear winner. It has thrown the Nanoleaf Canvas off its perch as this reviewer’s favorite set, with its striking colors and beautiful backlit effects. It’s also the first Nanoleaf light set that doesn’t necessarily have to be an eyesore when unlit. Skins are available as optional accessories that can be fitted onto the bars so they look like geometric works of art on your wall (or ceiling), plus you can expand them to bend around walls thanks to new connectors that are also available as optional accessories. Even without the extras, the Lines don’t look too bad when unlit. Yes, they still resemble plastic pieces, but the fact that they’re just light sticks and not panels, make them look a lot better than the blocks that older Nanoleaf smart panels resemble.

Two minute review Microsoft recently announced the third iteration of its surprisingly popular Surface Go 2-in-1 convertible laptop. The device has spawned a generation of wannabes with the Chuwi Hi10 Go being the most recently reviewed one. The Alldocube iWork 20 Pro joins the list with what - on paper - looks like a compelling alternative to the Surface Go 3, albeit with a slightly lower specification and a much, much lower price tag as well. It performs generally well (for a Celeron-class product) across a wide range of benchmarks - except for its abysmal storage performance - plus it is reasonably portable and decently connected. The form factor though remains a bit of a tricky one for those looking to use it to type. The keyboard cover and the tiny touchpad are simply not good enough for productivity fans. It’s not that they are intrinsically bad, it’s more that they can’t defy the laws of physics. The constraints associated with the layout and the need to keep everything li...

Our series on identity theft protection apps will evaluate the features, pricing options, competition, and also the overall value of using each app. However, these are not full hands-on reviews since evaluating identity theft protection apps is almost impossible. It would require several months of testing, purposefully hacking accounts to see if the protection app works, handing over personally identifiable information, performing multiple credit checks, and risking exposure of the reviewer’s personally identifiable information. ADT Identity Protection is an intriguing offering from a company you probably already know. As a trusted brand for home security - think alarm systems, video cameras and motion detectors - ADT typically would protect you against actual criminals trying to break into your house and steal your belongings. With such an established reputation, you may be more likely to trust the experience and credibility of ADT to guard your personal information as well. In...

The Fossil watches have been solid Wear OS devices leaning on sleek design rather than pioneering new features. The new Fossil Gen 6 follows in this tradition, packing a few new perks that few others do: the Snapdragon 4100 Plus chipset and, eventually (in 2022), the new Wear OS 3, better known as the version that combines Google’s wearable operating system and Samsung’s Tizen OS. You could get Wear OS 3 now in the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 , but that wearable only works with Android phones, and some features won’t even function unless the device is linked to Samsung handsets. Thus, the Fossil Gen 6 is the main alternative for folks who own an iPhone or just like the sleek Fossil look. That look has been only minorly altered from the Fossil Gen 5 , but if you felt the last smartwatch was a bit too sleek, the new Fossil Gen 6 has more pronounced pusher buttons that seem a bit easier to press, plus guards around the crown, and a ridge on the bezel. It’s still classy, though it doesn’t lo...

Two-minute review Laser projectors are starting to get a little cheaper, finally, thanks to 4K projectors like the LG CineBeam HU810P. It's still on the expensive side, but it's half the price of the laser projectors companies like LG were putting out just a few years ago. That said, while the design of the projector isn’t all that unique, it will fit in any living room or home theater and the image quality on offer by the projector is very good. You’ll get a very bright image that can get up to a massive 300 inches, and in SDR and HDR content alike, the projector is able to display vivid colors. The device also supports a range of smart home ecosystems, including Apple HomeKit, Google Assistant, and Amazon Alexa, plus it supports AirPlay 2 and Amazon Alexa. And, while we don’t recommend using the built-in speakers, they can at least get pretty loud - enough so at least to hide most of the fan noise. Admittedly, the black levels aren’t as deep as we would have liked and i...
