- Apple iBooks 2 textbooks video walkthrough and screenshots (hands-on)
We had a few minutes to browse through iBooks 2 textbooks following Apple’s press conference this morning, but now we have a fully-loaded iPad 2 to play with, so we decided to spend some more time getting educated in the comfort of our in-house studio. You already had a chance to get familiar with the new app and associated media earlier today, so this time it’s all about the visuals. Browse through the galley below as we explore Life on Earth before taking a front seat in Biology and getting our hands dirty with Frog Dissection. And if you’re feeling brave, there’s a juicy video walkthrough just past the break.

Flashback: a brief history of Bluetooth
It took years but USB eventually replaced the weird proprietary connectors of early mobile phones. However, years before USB became the norm another data transfer technology wanted to unite all electronics – and it didn’t even use wires. From Infrared to Bluetooth Bluetooth was developed by Ericsson in the 1990s. It is named after the 10th century Danish king Harald “Bluetooth” Gormsson, who united Denmark and Norway. The Bluetooth logo combines the runes ᚼ and ᛒ, which are Harald’s initials. The name (which was actually proposed by an Intel engineer) signified the ambition to become...
Week 19 in review: Zenfone 8/8 Flip are here, look at the Huawei P50, Pixel 6
Another week is done, so let's recap it. Starting with the iPhone 13 and 13 Pro, which will have bigger camera islands, due to their better camera hardware. The entire iPhone 13 series are also going to be slightly thicker. Asus unveiled the petite Zenfone 8 and the larger Zenfone 8 Flip with a rotating triple camera system. The pair is already available in Europe and Taiwan. We saw renders of the upcoming Huawei P50 series, which show three camera sensors in one camera ring and a separate one for the rumored 1-inch main camera. Currently the closest to that coveted 1-inch size is the...
Xiaomi Mi 11i in for review
This is the Xiaomi Mi 11i if you're in Europe. If you're in India, then this is the Xiaomi Mi 11X Pro and it shares the majority of its specs and all of its looks with the Xiaomi Mi 11X and the Poco F3. Confused? Don't worry - depending on where you live, Xiaomi will supply just one of these very good phones. The European model we have here ships with a 33W charger, USB cable, 3.5mm dongle and a case. You can pick the Mi 11i now for €649 with 8/128GB or €699 with 8/256GB and in three colors - Celestial Silver, Cosmic Black and Frosty White. We have the most reflective of the bunch at...
Weekly poll: is the Asus Zenfone 8 the small phone for you or would you like a Zenfone 8 Flip?
Truly tiny flagships may never return, but over the last couple of months a couple of relatively small models did appear. The latest is the Asus Zenfone 8, which has a 5.9” display with 20:9 aspect ratio and a punch hole selfie camera. Its dimensions are 148x68.5x8.9mm, that’s as small as Android flagships get at the moment. And it’s down to the basic design choices made by Asus, which contrast with Sony’s choices for the Xperia 5 III – a 6.1” display with a taller 21:9 aspect ratio and classic bezels (with camera and all, making them thicker). That makes the phone 157x68x8.2mm in size....
Weekly poll results: the Redmi K40 Gaming looks like a winner
Gaming phones are not for everyone, but last week’s poll shows that if you want one, the Redmi K40 Gaming is a great pick. It stands apart from the rest of the K40 family (itself fairly popular) with a MediaTek Dimensity 1200 chipset replacing the Snapdragons. It has been on sale in China for a couple of weeks now, it goes for CNY 2,000 ($310 or so), the same price as the vanilla K40. The two share many similarities, including the 120Hz OLED with HDR10+ support. To improve response times, the gaming phone cranks up the touch sampling rate from 360Hz to 480Hz and includes shoulder...
