The Snyder Cut Proves Director S Cuts Are Suited For Streaming

The four-hour director’s cut of Justice League is the result of years of fan campaigning and a $70 million financial investment from HBO to restore Zack Snyder’s original vision of the superhero film that was drastically changed by Joss Whedon and the studio when it first released in 2017. This is a film that could only really exist on a streaming service. The sheer length of it is unsuitable for cinemas, and the grittier tone is more daring and riskier than what Warner Bros....

Toshiba Chromebook 2 Review

To be fair, most Chromebooks feature underwhelming screens, often plumping for 1366×768 resolutions on cheaper TN panels that do the job but can be somewhat frosty and muted. Only the HP 11 and Google’s gorgeous but hugely expensive Pixel have broken the pattern with luscious IPS displays. Now Toshiba joins that elite band with the rather impressive Chromebook 2. Also see: Best Chromebooks 2015. Toshiba Chromebook review: Construction Design-wise this model bears more than a passing resemblance to its previous iteration....

Urbanears Lotsen Review Style Bass Combined

Pricing and availability The RRP is £179, putting the speaker in-line with other great Bluetooth speakers including the Sonos One (£199/$199) and the Bose SoundTouch 10.

Viewsonic Vx2457 Mhd Review

ViewSonic VX2457-mhd monitor review: Build quality and Design The ViewSonic VX2457-mhd has a tilting stand (forward 5 degrees, backwards 23 degrees), but no pivot or height adjustment. Usefully, though, it can be mounted on a standard VESA 100x100mm stand – you can clearly see the four mounting holes: We were a bit disappointed by the build quality, as we found the stand couldn’t really cope with the weight of the display and it wobbled more than we’d have liked....

Wahoo Kickr Review An Iphone Powered Bike Trainer

Unless you’re a hard-core cyclist that trains or commutes right through the winter, you’ll lose fitness until the weather improves again. Bike trainers help you maintain your fitness levels, and cost from around £60 to thousands. The difference with more expensive trainers such as the Wahoo Kickr is that they offer a much more realistic riding experience thanks to features such as electronically controlled resistance. Along with a computer of some description (but preferably an iPhone or iPad) you can ride ‘real’ courses, and the resistance changes depending on the gradient of the road at that point in the course....

Western Digital Red 6Tb Review

Much has changed in the world of storage since 2011, with Hitachi’s entire disk-making division bought out by Western Digital, and Toshiba encouraged to expand beyond its 2.5-inch comfort zone into 3.5-inch products. That move was inspired by Chinese monopolies investigators’ concerns, in order to reduce the duopoly of otherwise the only two 3.5-inch hard-disk makers still left standing – Seagate and WD. Additionally in the three years since 2011, solid-state storage has encroached even more into traditional disk-based products like laptops and desktop PCs....
