NEW HARDWARE ESSENTIAL ACCESSORIES LATEST GADGETS

Something a little

different this

month, as we

look at a laptop

powered not by

an Intel or AMD CPU, but

by an ARM chip not too

dissimilar from the ones

powering the latest

smartphones.

ARM designs are power-

efficient, which has led to

one of the longest lasting

batteries we’ve ever seen in

a laptop. Turn to p78 to find

out exactly how long.

Speaking of the latest

smartphones, we take a

look at Huawei’s P30 Pro,

with its innovative camera,

plus some quality cans, a

great Nikon camera, and a

smart alarm clock too.
