    Gaming laptop

    Is that the new upcoming one with the 16" display? If so, I'm sure you won't be disappointed - will be interested to hear your thoughts on it. I was tempted to wait until it's release but I ended up biting the bullet on the existing Legion 5 variant with the 15" / 4800H / 16GB / 500GB / 2060 /...

    The Best James Bond

    Hard for me to pick one as such, but for me the ones that stand out the most are Dalton, Connery, Moore & Brosnan - Moore & Brosnan used to be my joint favourite around 20 years back as I grew up watching those ones. Lazenby I don't really hold much of an opinion of, largely due to the fact he...

    Far cry games

    Never delved into FC 1 & 2 but I decided to give FC3 a go not long after release and instantly took a liking to it, so much so I played the game again from scratch at the hard difficulty (originally played at normal, I think). I also spent more time doing stuff such as crafting / more exploring...

    Images of items I have purchased (except trainers)

    That middle one straight away looks familiar... Adrian Smith signature model by any chance? Great looking guitars and probably my favourite era from Maiden :) Liam.

    By the look of it at the moment, the Redmi K30 hasn't had a global release as of yet - it'll more than likely be released as a Xiaomi handset in early 2020 for the Western markets that like us use Band 20. If you're looking to go back to a Xiaomi, I highly recommend the Mi 9T - I reckon you...

    **** The Official Chinese Phones Thread ****

    I trailed one out a few weeks ago while deciding on a new daily driver, being a BBK Electronics phone it's essentially the same feel and build quality as a OnePlus - albeit a few quirkier differences, in particular the camera. As mentioned online - ColorOS 6 is not the best out there in terms...

    Thanks mate, was actually considering one of these - will this still charge my Mi 9T at fast charge sufficiently despite it only being 18W, as opposed to 27W on your pro? Liam.

    Thankfully they were pulled altogether by Amazon not long after my last post, looks like anything up to 300 customers in the space of a fortnight including me were affected - Amazon though quickly acted on my complaint and issued a full refund within a couple of days. I never did receive...

    Edit - here goes, Connect & Go Deals. I haven't been able to initiate a complaint against them yet because the package hasn't turned up & still within the estimated delivery window so in limbo at the minute. They or Amazon have pulled most of their listings from the site by the look of it now...

    If looking to buy via Amazon - be very wary of the individual sellers, I placed an order for the Mi 9T last week for £236 shipped via one of their "trusted" sellers and it still yet to turn up despite being supplied with a RM tracking number, however since the weekend the feedback on their...

    **** The Official OnePlus 7/OnePlus 7 Pro Thread ****

    I've also been experiencing massive battery drain since a few days ago, OP5T owner here - barely getting a full days use out of mine before it needs a charge. I'm also certain it's down to WhatsApp as mine is reporting 14% usage on average. It looks to be spread across the entire OnePlus range...

    They used to be but separated from OPPO last year, though I believe both brands still have the same parent. Liam.

    We used to have a random guy who became known as "Palph" around the Wigston / Glen Parva side of Leicester that you could guarantee you would spot literally everywhere around these parts any time of the day, he just seemed to be always walking everywhere everyday, complete with either shopping...

    Good news, that must be re-assuring. I've been keeping an eye for the Mi 9T on eBay and as it stands, new ones still go for a minimum of £260.00... other used / nearly new examples are still up for £280.00+ which is laughable. I suppose though due to the high fees, they have to make it...

    Fingers crossed you'll obtain your refund without much more agro. Another reason why I wouldn't order from AliExpress is because of the horror stories I've read up where people have had trouble getting refunds back despite paying on a credit card and something in the small print with how Section...

    Why not give eGlobalCentral a go, I think the 128GB version is around £260 at the moment - the 64GB being around £240. If I decide to bite the bullet, this site will probably be my first point of call after hearing mostly positive things about them & the overall turnaround being no longer than...

    Still no Band 20 either for some of these new Chinese releases such as the above ^^^ which is also a shame, quite lot out there at the moment coming out from Oppo, Realme, VIVO, Xiaomi etc. Been entertaining the idea of finally retiring my second OnePlus 5T in favour of the Mi 9T soon... though...

    Dell Xps 13 DEAD

    There is a special key combination that works in the event the BIOS or a BIOS update has become corrupted, this may work in your case just to get it to power on if it's salvageable. From memory, I think you hold down the CTRL + ESC keys together & then insert the power cable, the laptop should...

    Will look forward to the review mate! Did you source it as the K20 branding due to purchasing from abroad, as opposed to the Mi 9T branding for over here? Liam.

    **** The Official Xiaomi Redmi K20/K20 Pro Thread ****

    We'll have to wait for sure until they properly hit the UK market. I reckon they'll retail for £450.00 at least. It looks like it's pretty much confirmed that these will be known as the K20 / K20 Pro in Asia and Mi 9T for Europe (K20 non Pro specs) - Pocophone's head of sales also confirmed...
