I tested the HP EliteBook 840 G9, and found it to be an elegant, easy-to-manage laptop that’s packed with quality

This review first appeared in issue 342 of PC Pro. HP offers a staggeringly large array of business laptops, with the 800 series sitting in the mid-range. If you want lower prices, choose the 600 series; for the lightest designs, head to the 1040 or Dragonfly series.

Cuktech 20 Power Bank: review The Cuktech 20 Power Bank has a high power output and large capacity, designed for charging laptops and similar devices while traveling. As you would expect from a battery of this ilk, it’s quite a handful. It’s thick across its depth, although thankfully it’s not as wide, nor is it as heavy as I was expecting. This makes...

I’ve spent hours playing games and listening to music with the Astro A50 Gen 5 — here’s why they’re worth the price.

Fujifilm’s GFX100RF compact camera has repeatedly blown me away, but there’s one major drawback
