One story has it that Apple co-founder Steve Jobs used to pick apples while at a commune and chose this rather loose connection as inspiration (source: ‘The Little Kingdom’ by Michael Moritz). Another story is that Fab Four fan Jobs nicked the name from the Beatles’ label Apple Records – a decision that would later involve it in endlessly boring legal wrangles when Jobs and co released iTunes and so forth....
The Asus Fonepad 7 LTE is for consumers that want to own both a smartphone and a tablet, but can’t afford both. It’s also for anyone who’s been wishing for the ability to make a phone call from their tablet. We think that’s a pretty niche market, but if you fall into it then the Asus Fonepad 7 LTE could be exactly what you’ve been looking for. Starting at £199, it does seem a little overpriced, particularly compared with Asus’s own impressive £120 Asus MemoPad 7 which we recently reviewed....
Price Unlike the HP Envy x2, which also runs on Snapdragon, the Asus NovaGo has a price – in dollars anyway. It will set you back $599 for the cheapest model with a more impressive spec priced at $799. There could well be another model in between but we’re waiting to find out. What we don’t know for sure, is when the NovaGo will be released. An Asus representative at the Snapdragon Summit told Tech Advisor that it will arrive in Taiwan first this month with other countries later....

The Asustor AS1004T is a four-bay NAS drive compatible with disks up to 10 TB in size, enabling you to have up to 40 TB of capacity available for your household, which should be enough for anybody. Asustor AS1004T review: Design Removing it from the box we were impressed with the sharp angular design and patterned black finish. We think this gives it a modicum of style so it won’t stick out like a sore thumb if its visible in the home....
Let’s begin with the price. £59.99/ US$69.99 for one PC and one year feels high considering what’s not included. On the purchase page, you realise that some functions included for free in other products are bolt-on additions here. The stand alone password manager, for example, will cost you another £19.99/$24.99. Avast Premier could be an expensive product if you want all the toys, though the integrated password manager for Firefox is free....

Not every deal is a good deal, of course. Some retailers offer tiny discounts and make them look better than they are, or they sell at a sale price which is still higher than that of their competitors, or higher than it has been earlier in the year.

The three phones confirmed at launch were the Xiaomi 12 Pro, the Xiaomi 12, and the Xiaomi 12X – though the latter hasn’t yet been confirmed to get a European release.
