- First ASUS G55VW gaming laptop configuration spotted and priced
ASUS‘s G-series has been warming the laps of gamers for a while, whether it’s the smart G74 or the elder statesman G73JH. The newest splinter of the G-team, however, is the G55 line. Right now, it’s the G55VW-DS71 that’s just had its specifications splayed out for all to see. It’ll be a quad-core i7-3610QM Ivy Bridge chip calling the shots, with a 2GB NVIDIA GTX 660M providing graphical backup. A solid 12GB of DDR3, 1,333MHz RAM and a 750GB HDD will come with the configuration mentioned here. There are two drive bays, though, so you can set it up to your liking, and higher spec versions of this 15.6″ machine will be coming in the future. It’s only up for pre-order at the moment, but $1,475 will make sure it finds its way to you once released, hopefully around the end of this month — the Intel gods willing.

Optimum | Email this | Comments - Sprint discontinues HTC EVO 3D online, limited quantities remain at retail stores
It’s not like we’re gonna argue with Sprint’s rationale, but the EVO 3D has met its end at the Now Network. Visitors to the carrier’s online store will notice that the gee-whiz smartphone is no longer available for sale, and Sprint reps have confirmed to us that it’s not coming back. Those who insist on owning an EVO 3D will be glad to know that the handset is still available at Sprint’s retail outlets, but according to the carrier, quantities are rather limited. Given a phone that debuted less than a year ago, its abrupt and unceremonious demise comes as a bit of a shock, but with the mighty EVO 4G LTE on the horizon, we can’t blame the carrier one bit.

Weekly poll results: Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra, Mi 11 Lite 5G and Mi 11i get an enthusiastic reception
Last week’s poll shows that camera features and 5G connectivity are key factors when choosing a new phone these days – especially an expensive flagship. The Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra has impressive camera hardware, which earned it a very positive reception by fans. The €1,200 price tag is going to be tough to swallow, though, which is why many were asking about the Mi 11 Pro. Currently, Xiaomi has seemingly no intention to launch the Pro globally, so for most of the world it is not an option. The Mi 11 Ultra is €450 more expensive than the vanilla Mi 11. That one has a fairly large sensor of...
