NEW HARDWARE ESSENTIAL ACCESSORIES LATEST GADGETS
It really is a great
time to be in the
market for a
new laptop.
New models are
hitting every section of the
market, from bargain-
basement PCs to sleek
professional Ultrabooks to
the kind of chunky gaming
laptops that can leave your
lap feeling uncomfortably
warm but perform far in
advance of anything else.
It’s also a great time to get
a new phone, with the rollout
of 5G services provoking a
rash of ugraded re-releases
as manufacturers scramble
to take advantage of the
new technology.
Whichever you choose,
enjoy your PC.
