Acer Aspire Switch 11 review Expert’s Rating Pros Cons Our Verdict The Acer Aspire Switch 11 is a more attractive device than the Switch 10 with a larger screen and better specs. However, we’re still not convinced by the chunky, top heavy design and the device let itself down with poor battery life. It might be more affordable but there are much better hybrids out there. The hybrid market continues to plough on, attempting to fuse alaptopand atabletinto one device....

Google Chromecast vs Amazon Fire TV Our Verdict Both devices are good in their own ways. They’re aimed at different people and if you’ve already bought content from Google, it could make sense to get a Chromecast.

Garmin nüvi 52LM review Expert’s Rating Pros Cons Our Verdict While lacking the advanced features of more expensive satnavs, the Nuvi 52LM is good value at the online price of £75, especially with a decent-sized 5in screen. The main drawback, for which you’d have to pay a fait bit more, is live traffic information. As one of the cheapestsatnavsaround (although you can go lower by opting for a 4in screen), the 5in nüvi 52LM is notable for having free map updates for life, even if it covers only the UK and Ireland, while many rivals cover most of Europe....
