Lenovo IdeaPad 1 (15", 2021/22) in-depth review
Lenovo is a master of affordable laptops. While the IdeaPad 1 15 might seem like a drop in the ocean of the company's portfolio, we have a feeling it has a main role in the future sales numbers. If we look at Lenovo's laptops as Game of Thrones characters, the IdeaPad 1 15 will be Bran Stark. It knows that it has to compete with the likes of John Snow (Legion 5), or Daenerys Targaryen (IdeaPad 3) to be the king (or queen), and occupy Sales Landing.And despite there being similarly low-priced options like the V15 or the V155, the IdeaPad 1 15 has one major advantage - the IdeaPad name, whi[...]

Apple MacBook Pro 14 (M4 Pro / M4 Max, Late 2024) in-depth review
With the 2024 model of Apple's MacBook Pro 14 you can choose between a 12-core or 14-core M4 Pro processor with a 16 or 20-core GPU respectively, or a 16-core M4 Max with 32-core GPU. As always, the bigger memory and storage options are pricey. However, the base iteration of this machine comes with 24GB of unified RAM. If you aren't a power user, this amount should be sufficient for daily tasks or normal work. If your wallet is wide enough, you could pick a machine with double the memory.The default 512GB SSD seems enough if you don't store too much of photos and videos on it. If you need [...]

ASUS E410 (L410) in-depth review
Right at the start of this review, we have to tell you that you need to adjust your expectations with the price tag of this notebook. The ASUS E410 is not your average Zenbook or ROG device. Instead, it is aimed at people, who need a first laptop (including children), or individuals, who cannot afford to spend lots of money on the bare minimum.One would think that this is the easiest notebook to make in a manufacturer's lineup. However, we would argue that it is the hardest one - premium devices and heavy-duty gaming machines require a lot of R&D money, but at the end of the day, they[...]

Apple MacBook Air 15 (Early 2025) in-depth review
We recently reviewed the 13-inch version of the latest MacBook Air and came away with a clear conclusion: it’s a fantastic computer that is simply not suitable for heavy work. The main reason for this is its passive, fanless cooling, which causes its performance to decrease significantly under sustained load. Furthermore, we found its base storage to be slower than most modern SSDs on the market. This brings us to its larger sibling. The critical question is, does the bigger chassis of the 15-inch MacBook Air help with cooling, and have any of its other underlying problems been solved? L[...]
Pros
- Superb and elegant all-aluminium unibody construction
- Completely silent fanless operation
- Excellent keyboard and a massive, best-in-class trackpad
- Vibrant and color-accurate PWM-free display
- Fantastic six-speaker sound system
- Native support for two external displays (lid closed)
Cons
- No upgrade options for RAM or SSD (soldered)
- Significant performance throttling under sustained load
- Display is still only 60Hz
- Extremely limited port selection
- Slow base model SSD speeds

Apple MacBook Air 13 (Early 2025) in-depth review
With any new machine from the Californian giant, everything appears incredibly simple and effortless, and the new M4 MacBook Air is no exception. But as with its predecessors, beneath the polished surface lie hidden pitfalls that you can only uncover in a detailed, independent review like ours. Of course, the machine is fantastic, but from its official presentation, no matter how detailed it may seem, you won't learn about its downsides, or more importantly, how to configure it to get the absolute most for your money.One piece of truly great news is that Apple has finally addressed a major[...]
Pros

- Exceptional, all-day battery life
- Completely silent fanless design
- Stunningly thin, light, and premium build quality
- Gorgeous, PWM-free Liquid Retina display
- Supports two external monitors with the lid closed
Cons
- Performance is throttled under sustained heavy loads
- Limited port selection with only two Thunderbolt ports
- Base 256GB SSD is slower than upgraded models
