Samsung's coup to leapfrog the phone industry

Samsung deciding to call its next generation of smartphones the Galaxy S20 line instead of the more traditionally incremental Galaxy S11 is by design.

ASUS ZenBook Duo

Aside from reviewing the ASUS ZenBook Pro Duo (published in Speed’s February issue), I also got to test out its little sibling: the ZenBook Duo. Essentially, the two are the same laptop with dual-screen displays and some key specs to die for. The biggest differences between the two: the size and the price.

Huawei Y9s

Nowadays, you really don’t need a flagship smartphone to get the best mobile experience. There’s a plethora of mobile devices that offer the performance and technologies available in high-end models but at half or even a third of the price. Add to that, midrange phones are also now almost if not on par with premium phones in terms of looks, built, and design. Case in point: the Huawei Y9s.

ASUS ProArt StudioBook Pro X

In the age where content creation is the name of the game, being able to produce content at the fastest rate possible without sacrificing quality helps greatly to put you ahead of the rest. To achieve this, some invest in professional-grade setup—but these are often bulky and demand the creator to be stationary. For those who prioritize style, performance, and portability, ASUS has a solution: the ProArt StudioBook Pro X.

Bound To Slay - Astral Chain

SPEED SAYS: Astral Chain is a unique, enjoyable, and accessible action title. Teaming up with your Legion is both a seamless and intuitive exercise, the management systems are easy to grasp, and levels contain much to discover, unlock and explore. The story may be a hit or miss depending on your tastes, multiplayer could’ve been better, and the graphical niceties a bit more polished, but once you get into the proceedings full-swing, you’ll find that Astral Chain will have roped you in hook, line, and sinker.
