I got my hands on a small, basic TV box built around the Rockchip RK3328. There’s nothing particularly special about it, except perhaps its size, so I decided to put together a short review to match :)

Not long ago, I published a review of the iLife A4 vacuum cleaner. I also mentioned then that it was already an outdated model that had been sent to me by mistake, since the A4S had replaced it. This time, though, I'm reviewing a genuinely new model, albeit one in a slightly higher class: the iLife A6.

Not so long ago, you could still call the Amlogic S912 SoC brand-new. But time flies, and it has become so common that a review of an S912-based TV box is no longer anything special. So I’ll try not to drag this out too much.

I was offered the chance to try out a product that was unusual for me: a robot vacuum. Since I really like all kinds of automated devices, I couldn't turn it down, so here you are reading this review. A vacuum cleaner is certainly useful, but in this case I was more interested in it as an automated device. Still, as always, although the main focus today will be taking it apart.

I was offered the chance to take a look at a TV box based on a new SoC from RockChip, and I couldn't say no. If you're interested in a closer look, teardown, tests, and a few conclusions, read on.

Not long ago, a manager from a store I hadn’t heard of before contacted me about reviewing one of their products. When I started looking through their offerings for anything interesting, I happened to come across a rather useful device in the TV box section—at least for me—so I decided to get one for testing. Details, a closer look, teardown, and testing as always after the jump.

I’d come across information several times about connecting a smartphone or tablet to a TV using something like AirPlay/DLNA/Miracast. I got curious, bought one, gave it a try, and decided to tell you about it :)

I've taken apart and tested quite a few small computers and tablets, and I can say with confidence that overheating is the bane of the vast majority of these devices. But not long ago, I got my hands on a device that doesn't overheat, and I was pleasantly surprised. But is everything else just as good? Let's take a look, test it, and take it apart—as usual.

I got my hands on a small TV box, but this one isn't based on the usual Amlogic chip. Instead, it uses a Rockchip, which has become less common lately. I came across it by chance and hadn't originally planned to review it, but since I have it, I decided to give you a quick rundown. A look around, tests, teardown, conclusions—same as always.

These scales won't weigh a person or a stick of sausage, but they can (or at least should be able to) weigh things their “big brothers” can't. So today we're taking a look at and testing a miniature scale for weighing very light objects.
