I was gradually running out of free disk space, so I decided to expand my “living space.” I also remembered that I had an M.2 SSD lying around since spring, along with an adapter that, as it turned out, I’d bought by mistake. After browsing AliExpress, I found a suitable option—or, more precisely, the cheapest suitable one—and ordered it. So today, here’s a mini-review of a simple little thing: an mSATA-to-M.2 adapter.

Not long ago, someone asked me in the comments about TV boxes based on ZTE Microelectronics’ new ZX296716 SoC. It caught my interest because it’s not the familiar Amlogic or Rockchip, or even the relatively uncommon Realtek. Since I had the chance, I ordered one for review.

At first, I wanted to title this review something like “yet another smartwatch,” but that doesn’t quite fit what I’m reviewing here. “Fitness tracker” doesn’t seem quite right either. That’s because this watch isn’t really “smart” yet, but it’s clearly more than just a fitness tracker. So today’s review is about a fitness watch from WeLoop.

A few power banks for 8 18650 cells crossed my path. I ended up bringing one home to my workbench “for testing,” which is what I’ll be talking about in today’s mini-review. I should probably warn you right away that this power bank has basically just one notable feature: it can hold a large number of batteries. Otherwise, it’s pretty basic and doesn’t really do much.

Not long ago, I published a review of the interesting Thor Plus from Vernee. After reading it, one of my readers became interested in the phone and also asked about another very similar model, the Lenovo P2. After reading up on this smartphone, I was surprised by two things: how I had managed to overlook it before, and how closely its main advertised features matched those of the Vernee. So I ordered one, and after testing it, I never once regretted taking a closer look.

A little over a year ago, I bought PIPO's new mini PC, the PIPO X10. I liked almost everything about it: a large screen, a built-in battery, and an external antenna. But almost immediately, a problem became apparent: it wouldn't work properly. And it wasn't just me—this was a widespread issue. I played around with it for a while, then eventually put it on the shelf. One of my readers has now suggested a way to bring this computer back to life, so today I'll explain how to revive the PIPO.

Another review, another computer, another Intel-based machine. This one is a little unusual, but interesting in its own way. It has its drawbacks, but is still a perfectly viable option. I'll take a look at it, take it apart, test it, make a few tweaks, and test it some more.

Last month I posted a review of a TV box from Vorke, and even then I suspected it looked a lot like one of Tanix's TV box models. No, today's review isn't of its twin; it just so happens that even in this form, the model I'm reviewing has a lot in common with the Vorke. And on top of that, it's built around Amlogic's new S905W SoC. Let's take a look, take it apart, test it, and see how the new SoC compares with the previous versions.

Some time ago, I posted a review of the inexpensive Escam pan-and-tilt camera. Today, I'm reviewing another pan-and-tilt camera, but one in a higher class. To get straight to the point, I think there are at least two main differences: resolution and build quality, though in fact there are more. For those who want the details, this review includes an inspection, a description of the software, some tests, and, of course, a complete teardown “down to the last screw.”
