This article/video has been sponsored by Honor. The Honor View 20 packs a mean spec sheet, especially when you take into account its very reasonable £400 price tag. With up to 256GB of internal storage, 8GB RAM, Kirin 980 chipset, an all-view display and beautiful design, there’s a lot to be impressed by. In this…

Guest author: Michael Penn In this day and age, the iPad is becoming more of a powerful working tool than it ever has been before. With iOS 11 coming out this fall, the iPad is getting some much-needed upgrades to really help it along in the work and education categories. It has also been a great…
My iPhone 6s Plus does a pretty good job of creating smooth video thanks to its onboard ‘optical image stabilisation’, but no matter how good that stabilisation is, nothing will compensate for aggressive movement — and aggressive moment spoils videos! That’s why I’ve been insanely eager to get my hands on the Zhiyun Smooth 3…
Being a tech and travel blogger means that I’m always creating video or photography content, and until now I’ve relied on my smartphone to get me by. The camera quality on smartphones are so good nowadays that it’s easier than ever to create professional, high quality content and I’ve been pretty pleased so far. That said, I wanted to…
As far as affordable action cams go, KitVision’s Escape 4KW is actually a really good buy. It records very good quality HD footage 1080p (at either 30 or 60 frames per second) and comes with an array of features like waterproof casing, 12MP photos and WiFi connectivity too. Although quite ironically it doesn’t record well…
The guys over at Three UK recently sent me the Samsung Galaxy S7 to play with, and so far I’ve absolutely loved the cameras on this thing. Its front facing camera has been impressive with a wide angle, crisp image quality and high resolution shooting capabilities. The rear camera also had a lot to get…
I love Apple’s Live Photo feature because it’s a brilliant way to capture a moment beyond a static photograph. The combination of audio with that brief second before and after creates a fun and interactive memory. Sharing those Live Photos is a problem though since they need to be created into GIFs before you can…
The Samsung S7 is the first Android smartphone I’ve used in a long time that actually makes me consider ditching my iPhone 6s Plus. It’s a great looking & feeling phone with plenty of features, but the most appealing thing here is the Samsung S7’s cameras. Why the front camera matters to me I tend to use my iPhone 6s Plus to record any video…
If you love taking photos and videos with your iPhone but want a more comfortable, DSLR-like feel to the experience, miggo’s Pictar camera grip is going to grab your attention. Currently undergoing a Kickstarter campaign that has reached half of its goal with 35 days still to go, this $90 gadget has been built to…
The Good: Good looking, well built and versatile tripod. The Bad: Not ideal for prolonged use with a DSLR camera, particularly if you intend on using it in front-facing/selfie mode. It’ll get a tad heavy. The Bottom Line: For the asking price, it’s hard to fault the Manfrotto Pixi Mini. It’s a well made tripod that’s great for…
