Sony PS4 review The best PS4 games are among the finest available on any platform at the moment, with showstoppers like Uncharted 4 and Bloodborne the envy of PC and  Xbox One  gamers alike. They'll all be compatible with the new PS4 Slim, as will every game going forward – Sony made it explicitly clear that every game for the PS4 Pro will work here, too. On top of the games themselves, the PS Plus network offering is as good a deal as it's ever been, allowing you to partake in competitive or cooperative online multiplayer play and offering up a selection of three free games on a monthly basis too. In terms of competition, the PS4 Slim really only has two rivals – the existing PS4 and the Xbox One S. Nintendo can't really compete with its Wii U (though it'll be interesting to see what the so-called Nintendo NX brings to the table). And it's against the  Xbox  One S where the PS4 Slim has its toughest fight. Only a tad more expensive, the Xbox One S look

Microsoft Wants The Surface Studio To  Come with me, and you’ll be, in a world of marketing innovation. The internet hates ads. Hates them. But it  loves  ads for new gadgets. The internet invented ad blockers to stamp them out, it cries out in one voice if it suspects it’s being sold to, and it has been usurping the traditional model of showing people stuff they might want to spend money on for years. Traditional advertisers have shunned marketing norms and tried to reinvent the ad as we know it. In a bid to circumvent the angry mob, the advertising industry leaps forward, finding new ways to deploy humor and sex to sell you products. The  festival of advertising known as the Super Bowl  is now watched as much for the new ads as it is for the football. That’s what makes Microsoft’s ad for the Surface Studio really interesting. For the first time in a long time, a product is being sold on its merits, not on a catchy jingle or a good-looking person wearing scanty cloth

Microsoft may be upgrading the specs of the Xbox One before its release The Xbox One reveal was so disappointing that it’ll likely go down in history as one of the gaming industry’s most memorable high-profile blunders. Microsoft’s decision to revise its mistakes will also likely go down in gaming history as unprecedented. Now, in what may end up another unprecedented move, Microsoft might be revising the Xbox One’s hardware before it even releases. For the uninitiated, Microsoft took a few enormous missteps when it announced the  Xbox One . The new console would be bogged down by always-online DRM, a mandatory Kinect that is always watching, listening, and can see in the dark, a system to curb the sale of used games, and the same Xbox Gold paywall that currently plagues the Xbox 360. On top of all that, it turned out the Xbox One’s hardware wasn’t all too impressive when compared to its main competitor, the PS4 — and it would cost $100 more than Sony’s more powerful, not-bogged-d

Hands-on: The MacBook Pro's innovative Touch Bar will grab you Apple's newest Mac packs a strip of iOS-style contextual controls into the Touch Bar. There's also a new keyboard and four Thunderbolt 3 ports. It’s thinner, lighter, and smaller all around, but  the new MacBook Pro  makes a big impression. The trackpad on the 15-inch version is downright ridiculous—twice as large as the trackpad on the previous generation—but I didn’t look down and say, “Holy cow, that is a seriously huge trackpad,” until I’d been using it for a couple of minutes. Because it’s really all about that gorgeous Touch Bar. Apple doesn’t do touchscreen Macs, but the Touch Bar adds a strip of ultra-handy iOS-style contextual controls right where you need them, and the rest of the MacBook Pro got great updates too. After my limited hands-on time, I think it’s got the right mix of power, portability, and ports to satisfy users of previous MacBook Pro and MacBook Air models. Let’s dive

Microsoft's Surface Book i7 doubles the GPU performance of its predecessor Updated Surface Book i7 gets fatter GPU, slightly fatter body, and keeps the Fulcrum hinge. Microsoft’s new Surface Book i7 will have longer battery life and more than twice the graphics performance of the previous model. Describing it as the “ultimate laptop,” Microsoft exec Panos Panay said the design goal of the updated Surface Book i7 was simple: “We took the Core i7, and then we gave it  more. ” The “more” here equals roughly 1.9 teraflops of GPU performance inside the new Surface Book i7, adding value to a product that Panay says already has the highest customer satisfaction ratings among any current Windows 10 machine or any MacBook. (Read our original review of the Surface Book.)  The overall design cues don’t change. The screen is fully detachable and reversible and can function as a tablet, while the base contains the graphics chip and extra batteries. Pen and touch are supporte

HP EliteBook 840 G1 review: A gem of a business laptop Sometimes it’s clear from the very first look that a laptop’s designers understand their market. The HP EliteBook 840 G1 is calmly handsome in a way that will appeal to business users. It’s also rugged, fast, ergonomically sound, and a breeze to upgrade and repair. If you work in an office, you’ll like it—unless you’re an eraser-head fan. The EliteBook 840 G1 is styled in silver and gray, with a matte top surface that looks nice when it’s clean, but that readily shows fingerprints. Keep a wipe cloth handy if you care about such things. The chassis is magnesium and the keyboard is fabricated from aluminum, making the unit tougher than most and endowing it with a sturdy feel. HP says the laptop has passed a number of MIL-STD 810G tests, including drop, dust incursion, and vibration. The 840 G1 is by far the easiest laptop to repair and upgrade that I’ve ever used. Flip the unit over, unlock the latch, slide the bottom serv

Test du Wiko Lenny 2 : low-cost et malgré tout intéressant Wiko est clairement l’un des constructeurs les plus prolifiques de l’année 2015, et n’a presque rien à envier à Samsung et sa stratégie que je qualifie «  d’assommoir « . Car avec près de 20 modèles à son catalogue, il est clair que la marque sino-française à clairement envie de noyer le marché sous ses propres modèles, aux déclinaisons multiples… Et c’est une stratégie qui fonctionne, au regard des millions de mobiles que parvient désormais à écouler la Wiko chaque année. Une stratégie qui a un bon pendant : vous pourrez facilement trouver un mobile adapté à votre budget. Dans la catégorie des « low-cost » (mobiles vendu à 100€ et moins) se trouve le  Wiko Lenny 2 . Un mobile vendu au prix très agressif de 79,90€  1. Esthétique : ça manque d’originalité, et alors ? Le Lenny 2 n’est clairement pas le plus original des mobiles, et son design peut clairement être qualifié de « passe-partout » (ndlr : non, pas
