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.
