Anker PowerExpand 5-in-1 Thunderbolt 4 Mini Dock price and availability The PowerExpand 5-in-1 Thunderbolt 4 Mini Dock would be considered one of the least expensive Thunderbolt 4 options available, being priced at $199.99/£199.99. This is certainly true when compared to its bigger rivals, including Kensington’s $289.99 SD5700T Thunderbolt 4 docking station and Razer’s $329.99 Thunderbolt 4 Dock Chroma (opens in new tab), along with Anker’s impressive Apex Thunderbolt 4 Docking Station, which is priced from $279....

Resuming the “less is more” approach that Apple played with a little last year with its iPad announcement, this looks like it will be a website update with a press release in Apple newsroom, since no big event has been announced. What is going on!? I had gone through the necessary stages of grief over the past few days when the report dropped about the M2 Pro and M2 Max MacBook Pros being delayed by a few months....

Apple on Thursday launched a public beta of its music streaming service for the web at beta.music.apple.com (opens in new tab), which means Apple Music subscribers can now stream their music directly from a web browser, without having to download a standalone app or iTunes. Apple says the web version of Music will work on all browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Edge and Safari) whether you’re on a Mac, PC or Chromebook....

Best MacBook in 2021: Which Apple laptop is best?Best tablets in 2021Apple iPad Air review: This is the one to buy Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo claimed the Cupertino company is planning to release a mini-LED MacBook Air and OLED iPad Air by 2022, which backs up statements in the recent report.

With this in mind, an Apple spring event could arrive as soon as March or April, while WWDC is likely to land in June. Either way, it may not be much longer until mass shipments of the mixed reality headset hit shelves. According to Kuo, the delay in shipments is due to “issues with mechanical component drop testing and the availability of software development tools.” Whether these issues will be sorted out in time for the next expected announcement, only time will tell....

This wasn’t just any old gaming monitor, it was the Asus ROG Swift PG279QZ. Unfortunately, we didn’t get to review this one, but several publications claimed that it’s one of the best gaming monitors around. And, honestly, I didn’t feel comfortable playing a gorgeous game like Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order on my crappy 60Hz monitor. I’ve only spent several days with this 165Hz monitor, but I can tell you right now, I’m never going back to a low-refresh rate screen ever again....

But therein lies the problem. What actually is a gaming Chromebook? Asus brags about the Vibe pairing “incredibly realistic visuals and exceptional performance to deliver unmatched cloud gaming experiences,” but come on. Cloud gaming does not need “exceptional performance.” It’s a little misleading. A flippin’ good gaming Chromebook? So, let’s look past some of the overly braggadocious language and head into the specs, because the Asus Chromebook Vibe CX34 Flip (CX3491FBA) is a strong system on paper....

Design The Asus VivoBook E402SA is not much of a looker. Not only does the design look plain, but its matte-black, plastic lid also attracts a lot of fingerprints and makes them easy to see in any lighting. Weighing 3.4 pounds, the Asus VivoBook E402SA is portable enough for travel but heavier than the Lenovo Ideapad 100 (3.2 pounds) and Asus’ own VivoBook E403SA (3.18 pounds). The Asus is lighter than the Dell Inspiron 14 3000 (3....

Asus’ mission to make dual-display setups available to the masses started with the ZenBook Duo (UX481), which we heralded as an innovative laptop at a reasonable price. It arrived with a fair share of ergonomic problems, though: the keyboard position was uncomfortable; the fixed position of the second display limited usability; and the trackpad was too narrow. But now, we’re in sequel territory. Does this new version address the first generation problems while upgrading everything else to give us something I can put my stamp of approval on?...
