Perfectly impractical

» When it comes to smartphones, Sony is hardly considered among the "big boys" of the industry like Samsung or Apple. Approaching Sony's latest flagship smartphone, the Xperia Z5 Premium, I was sceptical at first. While the newest model in Sony's Xperia line proves to be a huge step in the right direction -- with an impressive 23MP back camera, 5.5-inch 4K resolution display and even workable water, plus fall-proof technology -- there are still plenty of caveats to the device that holds it back from standing toe-to-toe with the likes of Samsung's Galaxy S line or Apple's iPhones, despite the similar price tag.
Highs and lows of a hybrid device

» HP's Pavilion X2 laptop-tablet hybrid leaves much to be desired. It doesn't have the best screen resolution, nor is its performance as quick and snappy as I hoped it would be. The cramped keyboard makes typing mildly frustrating from time to time. That said, the device is also one of the cheapest devices running on Windows 10 right now, and is at least usable for simple tasks like working on documents (I'm actually typing this on the device). If you're looking for a versatile, portable device for working remotely or for consuming media such as music or videos, there are plenty of worse choices to go with than the Pavilion X2.

» When it comes to high-end headphones, Sennheiser stands right up there with Marshall or Bose in terms of sound quality. The Urbanite XL Wireless, an upgraded version of the same class of headphones released last year, brings with it the sound quality you'd expect from a Sennheiser product; providing a solid bass, while maintaining a wide range of sounds across various genres of music. Additionally, perhaps to compete with more trendy competitors like Beats By Dre, the Urbanite XL is also given a sleek, subtle design that should appeal to more fashion-conscious music lovers as well.
Reality, not as we know it

Wearing your fitness gains
Life, Kanin Srimaneekulroj, Published on 19/08/2015
» Fitness trackers are the new smartphones these days, with various tech companies seemingly scrambling over each other to release the dominant fitness wearable. The UP3, called the "most advanced way to track your fitness, sleep and heart health" by creator Jawbone, certainly has all the specs you'd expect from a fitness wearable, though whether that supports Jawbone's lofty claims for its flagship device is doubtful at best.
