ASUS Vivobook 16 (M1605) in-depth review
The ASUS Vivobook 16 (M1605) is offered with Zen 3 (Refresh) CPUs or Zen 4 chips. The machines with the newer processor platform rely on DDR5 memory, Gen 4 M.2 slot, bigger battery variants (50Wh or 70Wh), and an optional 3.2K OLED display. If you don't need all these features, the Zen 3-based notebooks can be found at a lower price since they have DDR4 memory, Gen 3 SSDs, a smaller 42Wh battery capacity, and you can't opt for the fancy OLED display.The rest is standard for all machines - Wi-Fi 5 / Bluetooth 5.1 or Wi-Fi 6E / Bluetooth 5.3 for connectivity, so-so I/O, and limited upgradabi[...]

Apple MacBook Air 13 (Early 2024) in-depth review
Just like any other manufacturer, Apple offers new devices every year. They sport modern hardware and other improvements. This time around we'll show you the Apple MacBook Air (13", M3). As you may already guess by looking at the name, this machine has the M3 SoC combined with 8-core or 10-core iGPU plus Wi-Fi 6E for connectivity. Compared to the M2 predecessor, this machine looks like a decent refresh in terms of hardware and features. Aside from the faster CPU and GPUs, the RAM is also soldered.

ASUS Vivobook 15 OLED (X1505 / S1505) in-depth review
Once again, we got ourselves an affordable 15-inch daily driver. But it is not your ordinary multimedia workhorse. Why? Well, because it comes with an OLED display. In fact, you can choose between two panels - a 1080p 60Hz one, or a 2.8K 120Hz unit.Obviously, this makes the ASUS Vivobook 15 OLED (X1505) a force to be reckoned with. Besides the mouthwatering screen, there is pretty capable hardware, sitting behind the product. We are talking about either the 15W or 45W Alder Lake processors from Intel, with 13th Gen sitting and waiting behind the corner.You see, we don't expect this no[...]
