Unboxing the Xiaomi Watch S1 Pro with a two-week review of the battery life, features and general performance. Is the Xiaomi Watch S1 Pro one of the best premium smartwatches of 2023, vs the Samsung Galaxy Wear and Pixel rivals?

This wearable was launched alongside the Xiaomi 13 Series here in the UK, and overall seems familiar. You have a very similar design to the regular version, with many of the same features packed in too. That said, the Xiaomi Watch S1 Pro does boast upgraded battery life and a couple of new tricks.

The Alexa assistant is again on board and again a bit hit-and-miss. I certainly prefer the Google Assistant on the Pixel and Galaxy Wear smartwatches. Contactless payments were also a no-go for me, with limited UK support anyway. Still, the Xiaomi Watch S1 Pro serves up plenty of other great tools, including lots of fitness tracking features.

Check out my round up of the best smartwatches to see the big rivals for this wrist rocket!

When it comes to gaming, special peripherals give PC gamers a competitive edge over their rivals. Keyboards and mice are the weapons of choice for those who play on their computers, as opposed to gamepads for those who play on consoles.

Gaming keyboards are specially equipped to cater to specific gaming needs. They are used by hard core gamers to enhance the gaming experience and fun.

When Is It Time to Buy a Kindle?

The Amazon Kindle Versus the Sony PRS Series

The electronic book readers have come to stay, with manufacturers punching out tons of different models each and every year, and the popularity of these devices forever increasing. While the Kindle by Amazon has been dominating the market for quite some time now, the Sony PRS series is pretty hot on its trail.

What Is Most Loveable About the Kindle?

With the Amazon one-click ordering service, it’s possible for you to download eBooks to your device within 60 seconds, all I do is find a book that I like, click on a few icons, and within a matter of seconds I’m reading my new eBook. It’s not free however, I likely would have paid anywhere from $5 to $15, for it.
