About

Relatable tech reviews and advice for normal people. I have zero interest in deep spec dives or long-winded comparisons. I review laptops, smartphones, tablets, headphones and the latest tech based on real experience. I'll tell you how it'll make you feel, whether or not it's worth your time (and money) and help you find the tech you need to get stuff done. WHO AM I? I'm a UK-based freelance marketer, podcaster and blogger. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. Some of the links in my video descriptions will direct you to the Amazon website.

Video Description

This video is sponsored by Shift. https://geni.us/MERShift In my Huawei MateBook 14 review, I reveal my thoughts on what looks to be a very interesting Windows-based competitor to the MacBook Air. If you sit in that Netherland between the two platforms and need a new laptop, should this one be on your list?
