The biggest problem with the V23 is its price. A criticism that we already oppose to the V21 – and to the majority of vivo smartphones so to speak.

This new smartphone offers a good performance on almost all aspects, but comes up against competition that is far too fierce for it in this segment.

Of course, he has a few strengths of his own. Its design, original, is one. The emphasis on the selfie photo sensor is another. But out of there, we find a rather classic smartphone, which is struggling to find a place in a market overloaded with much more impressive references.

The screen, audio and photography parts of the realme C35 are, as expected, rather poor: it is neither more nor less than the minimum service. If the design of the smartphone is elegant, we can not help but regret the location of the volume control buttons on the left edge of the device, which regularly cause involuntary screenshots.

We weren’t impressed either by its performance, especially on the most demanding video games, or by its particularly basic interface. Nevertheless, the realme C35 could perfectly suit those who do not care about these criteria and just want a durable smartphone that would allow them above all to reach their loved ones and browse the internet.

Even if, here again, on our side we regret the lack of compatibility with the 5G networks currently in deployment in France, nor with Wi-Fi 6. In short, technologies which allow faster downloads.

Price aside, it’s impossible not to fall in love with this Phantom Gaming-ITX/TB4 which allows us to use the famous slogan of our national car manufacturer: “ she has everything of a great “. Despite its small size, it actually incorporates all the refinements usually only found on full-size models.

Z690 obliges, we can thus count on a PCI Express 5.0 port, two DDR5 slots, USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 and even Thunderbolt 4. The storage part is not neglected with all the same two M.2 ports accepting NVMe PCIe 4.0 x4 SSDs and, of course, the presence of Bluetooth 5.2, Wi-Fi 6E and 2.5 GbE Ethernet LAN networks.

We started with that, the only criticism that can be made of ASRock and its Phantom Gaming-ITX/TB4 is its price. Like (too) many Z690 solutions, the card is still overpriced at more than 450 euros. At this price, you can’t even have fun with LEDs all over the place, but you can make your neighbor drool with the latest technologies of the moment.

You guessed it, the Core i3-12100 is not able to break records. It was not designed with this in mind and is more in keeping with the idea of ​​democratizing Alder Lake. Keep in mind that this processor is trading for less than 150 euros despite having been available for a very short time.

Associated with a card based on the B660 chipset or even, if you can find them, the H610 chipset, it will be able to make the heart of a very affordable configuration beat faster. Of course, it will then be paired with DDR4, but that will save as much money as possible for the expensive graphics card in order to end up with, if not the ultimate gaming machine, at least a very serious contender.

If you’re just looking to record or stream games on Nintendo Switch or any other older generation console, the HD60 X far exceeds your needs.

The Elgato HD60 X is only really useful if you want to take advantage of the very latest technologies introduced with the Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5 (VRR and high refresh rate gaming).

However, Elgato has the good sense to launch its new case at the same price as its predecessor. It is therefore the right choice for those who would like to be ready to welcome a new machine into their setup In the coming months.

Plug and play, with minimal latency and supported by a wide variety of software, the Elgato HD60 X is hands down the best capture device on the market to date.

Improving the strengths of a previous product while correcting its flaws, that’s a pretty good summary of Sennheiser’s Momentum True Wireless 3. The German manufacturer, failing to have created the best headphones of its kind, offers one of the rare compromises between technology and audiophile.

More advanced ergonomics, more modern connectivity (multipoint to come), finally effective active isolation, better comfort, better microphones, improved sound… The brand is finally making a real leap between two versions of headphones. The Sony WF-1000mX4 retain their crown from a global and objective point of view, but the Sennheiser, playing to their own strength, represent the epitome of a style.

A great sequel to an already convincing product, the Oppo Enco X2s are a solid set, with no major flaws. The format is classic, without any luxury or really striking feature, but these headphones have the good points, starting with complete and efficient ergonomics.

Too bad not to have erased the only weaknesses of the first Enco X, namely the passive isolation and the quality of the microphones in call. On the contrary, the manufacturer preferred to focus on improving the strengths… it’s a strategy.

Even more efficient ANC, ever more refined sound quality in the treble, the Enco X2 thus represent an excellent mid-range model. Still, it is a shame to have inflated the price compared to the old headphones.
