For those looking to buy a new DSLR, there's quite a few models from Nikon to choose from, although only eight of them are currently active. But, if rumors are to be believed, three of them will be the last of their kind. Nikon Rumors is reporting that the D3500, the D5600 and the D500 will be axed, although it has been suggested that they may be replaced by mirrorless versions instead. This rumor is given weight by Nikon’s own statement from last year that the new Z mount will be used “to pioneer the future”. Four other DSLRs – the D5, D850, D750, and D7500 – however will reportedly get fresh replacements. After all, we know there's a D760 incoming some time this year. The best cameras of 2019: 10 top models you can buy right nowThe 10 best DSLR cameras available right nowThe best mirrorless cameras of 2019Without the looking glassNikon has been keen on capturing a large part of the mirrorless camera market share, and the launch of the Z7 and Z6 last year was a good start, but the company won’t be stopping there. A Japanese newspaper recently reported that a mirrorless version of the top-end D5 is already in the pipeline, while another report suggests a mid-price enthusiast level model might also be launching some time this year. However, camera code registrations by Nikon indicate there may be as many three new Z series cameras joining the manufacturer’s mirrorless camera range. When the new DSLRs and mirrorless cameras will arrive is anyone’s guess, but the rumors of Nikon thinning its DSLR herd may need to be taken with a pinch of salt. After all, the D3500 was launched only in August 2018 and we don't anticipate it being retired in 2019.

NBN Co has put forward a proposal to its top 50 retail service provider (RSP) partners, asking them what they think of charging a different amount for the data used by streaming video compared with other traffic and services. First reported by telecom industry publication CommsDay, NBN Co is essentially testing the waters to see if companies that sell the NBN to customers – such as Telstra, TPG and Optus – would support and enforce higher rates for users that watch Netflix, Stan and other streaming services. On June 20, NBN Co sent its Wholesale Pricing Review to the aforementioned 50 RSPs, seeking industry feedback on the service’s pricing structure thus far and how it can be amended in the future. Included in the pricing review is the following question: “Would your organisation support the development of a price response whereby charging of streaming video could be differentiated from the charging of other traffic/services? Would your organisation be likely to productise such a mechanism if developed by NBN?” NBN plan comparison: best value options ConsequencesAccording to market research company Roy Morgan, over 11.2 million Australians had Netflix subscriptions as of February 2019, a 25% increase over the previous year’s figures. Considering that almost half of all Australian residents have a Netflix subscription alone, and this exists alongside a plethora of other video streaming options (including YouTube), it’s safe to assume that raising the cost of accessing these services would be unpopular with the public. What's new on Netflix AustraliaNetflix Australia’s best TV seriesNetflix Australia's best moviesSimilarly, considering that it’s typically left up to the RSP to decide on traffic shaping and prioritisation, it’s unlikely that these companies will be willing to lose that degree of control. The final and potentially most alarming consideration is that of privacy. NBN Co, as a contracted company intended on providing infrastructure, should theoretically not have any deeper insight into specific users and their usage. It’s unclear at this stage what exactly the pricing changes would be if they were to be put in place – and would likely be up to individual RSPs – and there’s also plenty of opportunities for opposition before it gets finalised, including from the RSPs themselves and consumer-rights organisations like the ACCC. The ACCC isn’t happy with NBN Co’s plan to raise prices on low-speed serviceshttp://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/techradar/digital-home/~4/_COcKHhr1FI

It’s set to be the biggest Prime Day yet and in the lead up to Amazon’s massive annual sale, the online marketplace is offering its Australian Prime members plenty of incentives to participate, like getting a three-month long free trial to check out Audible and Kindle Unlimited. To sweeten the deal, Amazon Australia is also offering free expedited delivery on items bought from the Global Store section of the site, even if the price of the product is under $49. This, however, is a limited time offer expiring at 11:59pm AEST on July 21 and is only available on Prime eligible products shipped and sold by Amazon US. Conditions applyYou will, of course, need to be a Prime member to take advantage of this offer. According to Amazon, expedited delivery on international products means you’ll receive your items in 7-10 business days (as opposed to the 8-12 day delivery on standard shipping). While Prime eligible products under $49 usually incur a shipping cost, even for Prime members, Amazon will shave this off until July 21. Not a Prime member yet? Sign up now and try it free for 30 days.However, if you purchase a mixed bag of items (eg: a camera lens that is Prime eligible along with a Corsair wireless gaming headset that isn’t), then standard delivery rates will apply. Another stipulation of the offer is that all eligible items purchased in a single transaction will have to be shipped to the same address. The advantage of shopping from the Global Store section of the Australian site is you get a wider selection of products that have import fees already included in the price, with Amazon handling customs clearance for you. Amazon Prime Day date confirmed for Australia – it's set to be a 65-hour epic sale!http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/techradar/digital-home/~4/r5vhwLJSz5A

The Samsung Galaxy Note 10 release date isn't too far off, as Samsung has officially announced the launch event date and venue for its next Unpacked press conference. Wednesday, August 7 is when you can expected the new Note 10 to launch, and it's all happening in Brooklyn at the Barclays Center (the same as the Note 9 launch). This launch event will be later in the day locally for New York: 4pm EDT (1pm PDT, 9pm BST, 6am AEST in Australia). http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/ZPufFJpgfaBT9y9FJabqKC.jpg Image credit: Samsung What to expect from the Note 10 launchThe Galaxy Note 10 is about to get some of the bezel-less Samsung Galaxy S10 treatment along with a punch-hole display, according to the latest Note 10 leaks. However, the front-facing camera that fills that punch-hole is poised to be center-aligned, and there appears to be only one camera peering out of the display. The Galaxy 10 Plus has two front cameras in a wide oval-shaped hole and the S10 5G has three front cameras. The rear cameras also appear to be shifted to the left side for a vertical triple-lens camera setup – the extra camera is likely for a depth-sensing "Time of Flight" camera. And, of course, the S Pen is due to get more tricks in the 2019 model. We might see the RAM max out at 12GB in certain versions, and we're expecting the chipset to get a Snapdragon 855 in the regular and rumored 'Pro'/'Plus' higher-specced version.

A taskforce made up of tech companies like Facebook, Microsoft, Google and Amazon, alongside Australian ISPs, has proposed specific laws be put in place giving the country’s eSafety Commissioner more power to block sites sharing malicious and abhorrent violent content online. This proposal comes in the wake of the Christchurch shootings in March, when the massacre of innocent people at prayer was streamed live and shared online by other sites. At the time, Australian ISPs began proactively blocking websites hosting the video or sharing the shooter’s manifesto, relying on a vague subsection of the 1997 Telecommunications Act which gives the eSafety Commissioner the power to issue written directives to ISPs. It was a temporary solution but it worked, with the government hastily passing laws in April that criminalised the sharing of malicious content online. This meant that while ISPs were legally required to take down sites sharing the Christchurch video, there was no law in place to protect them from blocking the sites in the first place. Making it black and whiteNow, however, the taskforce wants more concrete legislation, asking the government to develop a “protocol [that] would set out the arrangements and process for implementing blocks of websites hosting offending content, including the means of determining which ISPs would be subject to blocking orders, the length of time that the ISPs will be required to implement the blocks, and the process for removing the blocks”. The taskforce report also suggests that the legislation should clearly define whether “the terrorist or extreme violent material is sufficiently serious to warrant blocking action, and to identify the domains that are hosting the material”. The proposal also asks the government to provide “guidance” on when the protocol should be used by the eSafety Commissioner. At present, there are laws in place to block sites sharing illegal material like pirated content and child pornography, but the law isn’t enacted too often. Before the new proposal becomes law, though, the eSafety Commissioner’s office has released a statement that it will work closely with the ISPs and tech companies to ensure the legislation works for “all parties” including the end users.

TCL is rapidly taking over the mid-range television space. It’s a spot it’s been vying for over the last five years, and with everything from budget HDR sets to 8K QLEDs to offer, it’s really beginning to hold its own. TCL has held a steady 10% market share of the global LCD TV market for the past couple of years, as one of the largest TV manufacturers alongside Samsung and LG. So it's more likely than ever that you'll come across a TCL TV in your hunt for the perfect home television, even if they're relatively new to UK stores. To conquer that space, TCL has a number of TV series – and we mean literally, as TCL somewhat confusingly names its TVs after numbers. UPDATE: Amazon Prime Day is coming up fast (July 15 and 16) and that means you're bound to find a number of good TV deals - including some on TCL TVs. That said, we recommend holding out for Amazon Prime Day before making a purchase, and doing your research before buying the cheapest screen available. If you see a good deal on the TCL 32S305, TCL 49S405 or TCL 55S405 you should probably keep looking - as those models are from 2017. Last year saw the launch of new additions to the TCL 6-Series and 5-Series, while this year, TCL is treating us to two new 8K TVs, including the 2019 TCL Roku TV and the flagship 75-inch TV model from its new 8-Series. You'll also see some carryovers from last year - the 3-Series and 4-Series - that are now cheaper than ever. It can be hard deciphering which models are capable of which features, but that’s why we’re here. We’ve got our hands on a number of the new smart TVs, and can help you narrow down TCL’s ever-expanding line-up to find the TV that’s right for you. But before we get into specific models, let’s talk about what TCL is changing in its brand-new 2019 TVs. http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/sJ4pKM8CcrZueV5GyBgZNZ.jpg Image Credit: TCL TCL 2019 TV technology So what makes a TCL TV... well, a TCL TV? In recent years, one of the defining traits of TCL TV's is their use of Roku TV, which appears in most of the mid-range models in North America. By leveraging Roku's strengths, TCL TVs have an incredible library of subscription-based streaming services like Hulu, Netflix, and Amazon Prime Video. In 2019, TCL is expanding into 8K, with the upcoming launch of the new 2019 TCL Roku TV (or TCL X10 QLED outside the US), plus the new 8-Series range. The company has also joined other display industry leaders to form the 8K Association, which will work to “define 8K display performance standards and support the outreach and promotion of 8K to consumers and to industry partners, like streaming services”. Both of the new 8K TVs feature TCL’s new Quantum Dot display technology, which supports a wide color gamut display, approaching 100% of the DCI-P3 color space coverage. This, alongside TCL’s mini LED technology, should make for more vibrant colors, heightened contrast, and better viewing angles. This year also saw the launch of TCL's new AI smart platform, TCL AI-IN, and it’s working to integrate its smart AI-powered products with partners like Android TV, Roku (in North America only), and Amazon Alexa. TCL doesn't currently trade in OLED TVs, though it does have plans down the line for OLED panels that feature emissive quantum dot pixels: something that we know Samsung is working on too. TCL continues to work on a number of more unusual form factors, like massive curved screens and concrete subwoofers, though most don't make their to market – especially Western ones. TCL is making some crazy TVs; here's why you can't buy themTCL X10 QLED (new for 2019)http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/y4m2xsziFbUY2AnfxmGXZN.jpg Image Credit: TechRadar TCL X10 QLED (available in 75 inches): At CES 2019, we discovered that the 8K 2019 TCL Roku TV (or TCL X10 QLED outside the US) boasts QLED and mini LED technology for improved picture quality. Specifically, these smaller LEDs offers more local dimming, with 300% more contrast control zones compared to its last-generation sets. This creates deeper blacks, more vibrant colors and, most importantly, better viewing angles. Support for 8K, Dolby Vision, and Quantum Dot display technology should make for an impressive picture, particularly in the flagship 75-inch model. It also has an integrated Onkyo soundbar, which supports Dolby Atmos, and is 14.5mm at its thinnest point. TCL says the 2019 TCL Roku TV will be available in the second half of this year, with prices to be announced.

At the starting size of 75 inches, it's a sight to behold. Like the 2019 TCL Roku TV, the new 8-Series has QLED and mini LED technology for a clear, precise, and vibrant display. The TCL 8K TV also supports a wide color gamut display, approaching 100% of the DCI-P3 color space coverage, Dolby Vision, and more of the ultra-contrast control zones tech we've seen on TCL's higher-end 6-Series televisions. The 75-inch flagship model can skillfully convert today’s 4K and full HD resolution content and delivers a new sense of depth and clarity, says the company. It'll also be future-proofed for when native 8K content does get here thanks to HDMI 2.1 support. Like the 2019 TCL Roku TV, it has a built in Onkyo soundbar with Dolby Atmos support. TCL says the 8-Series will be available in 2019, with pricing to be confirmed.

Models in the 6-Series boast three types of HDR support, Roku TV, and copious amounts of LED control zones. The TCL 6-Series is available now, at a special pre-order introductory price of $649 for the 55” (55R617), $999 for the 65” (65R617) screen size, and $1800 for the 75” (75R617).

You can expect HDR Pro Gamma and support for the three main types of HDR, plus Wide Color with NBP Photon technology and Roku TV built-in. As far as motion is concerned, the 5-Series has 240 Natural Motion technology … which probably equates to a native refresh rate of 120Hz. The TCL 5-Series is a available now at $429.99 for the 43” (43S517), $449.99 for the 49” (49S517), $499.99 for the 55” (55S517), and $899.99 for the 65” (65S517).

It's one of the TV maker's most popular models because it expertly blends performance with price and is known to drop precipitously during Black Friday or Cyber Monday sales. The 5-Series and 6-Series offer a number of improvements like improved black levels, higher brightess and more dimming zones, the basic 4-Series still offers 4K HDR at an affordable price (note: only HDR10 is supported on the 4-Series, however). Each model in the series still uses Roku TV for its smart platform and comes with a smart remote. If you want a value screen, these are your best bet. The TCL 4-Series is a available now at $279.99 for the 43” (43S425), $339.99 for the 49” (49S425), $379.99 for the 55” (55S425), and $599.99 for the 65” (65S425). Model numbers: 43S425, 49S425, 55S425, 65S425 (Editor's note: You might still see some 2017 models floating around online - the TCL 49S405 and TCL 55S405.

Amazon Prime Day 2019 is only two weeks from today, and there are deals coming out ahead of it – like $5 off the just-released Super Mario Maker 2 for the Nintendo Switch. Like its predecessor, Super Mario Maker 2 lets players create their own side-scrolling platformer levels with familiar features, obstacles, enemies and items from Nintendo's 34-year-old Mario franchise. Choose from a variety of styles across the game series’ history, from the 8-bit looks of the original Super Mario Bros to the updated Super Mario 3D World. Players can share their levels via a code, allowing anyone to access and play after they enter it. The community has already created tons of levels, from brilliantly creative courses to ultra-punishing tests of timing and endurance. If that sounds like your kind of game, pick up Super Mario Maker 2 at a slight discount - it’s not much off, but any reduction in the price tag is surprising for a just-released title.

Having failed to seal their place in the semi-finals on Sunday after suffering their first defeat of the 2019 Cricket World Cup to England, India will be hoping to wrap things up at Edgbaston against Bangladesh. It's all set to be another absorbing World Cup clash - read below to make sure you don't miss a ball no matter where you are in the world with our Bangladesh vs India live stream guide. Bangladesh have seven points from seven matches and find themselves delicately placed in fifth. England's win against their opponents won't have done them any favours, but a victory here and another against Pakistan on Friday could still be enough to see them into the last four. Having inspired his team to a 62 run win over Afghanistan in their last match, Bangladesh will be hoping their incredible all-rounder skipper Shakib Al Hasan can once again light up the tournament. No more so than on the bowling front - while the Tigers have been ferocious with the bat, it's been a somewhat different story with the ball which has ultimately led them to being in such a currently precarious position. Having been accused of being complacent against England, Virat Kohli’s men are unlikely to offer up much in the way of favours and will be determined to get back to winning ways. You’ll be able to watch all the action from this with ease from anywhere in the world if you follow our Bangladesh vs India live stream guide below.

The record-breaking USA are eyeing another piece of history by becoming the first side to reach the Women’s World Cup final for a third consecutive occasion. England have continued to improve as the tournament has progressed, and their clinical 3-0 dismantling of Norway will have given the Lionesses belief that they're capable of pulling off a win against the overwhelming tournament favourites. This is shaping up to be absolutely unmissable, and we'll tell you the best ways to get an England vs USA live stream from anywhere on Earth - it's absolutely free in some regions, including the UK. For the majority of the 2019 Women's World Cup they've looked unstoppable, but the USWNT have had questions asked of them in both of their knockout games so far against Spain and France. Phil Nevile warned his players on Sunday that a semi-final defeat against the seemingly unstoppable USWNT would amount to 'failure'. Harsh as that may sound, on the basis of the momentum the the Lionesses have built-up and the fact that a very beatable team will wait them in the final, the England boss knows that history is there for the writing. All the pressure will nevertheless be on the USA, where Jill Ellis's team will be expecting to see off another European opponent in professional fashion. Neither side has any major injury doubts ahead of the game, but expect Beth Mead to start for England following her impressive showing as a sub for Toni Duggan against Norway. While Captain fantastic Megan Rapinoe has led by example against Spain and France by converting a pair of penalties in both matches, the USA's first-choice striker Alex Morgan has failed to find the back of the net in the last four games. While veteran forward Carli Lloyd will be itching to replace her, expect Morgan to nether less start again this evening.

Amazon Cloud Cam gives Alexa a new sense: sight. It’s a security camera and a pet camera, a motion detector and even a two-way intercom that you can use to chat to the kids or bark at the dog. Amazon Cloud Cam was introduced in late 2017, although at the time it lacked the ability to watch via a web browser (that’s now been added). It was designed to work with Amazon Key, Amazon’s security service that enables customers to control access to their home for appointments and deliveries. Amazon also suggests that you might want to use it to check in on the kids when you’re cooking in the kitchen, or monitor the front door while traveling. It’s a direct competitor to the Google-owned Nest cameras, as well as the recent wave of Wi-Fi-enabled, cloud-connected security products. http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/gGzqqh7dwPV32fLGqdczBT.jpg Image credit: Amazon What is Amazon Cloud Cam and how does it work?Amazon Cloud Cam is a connected security camera that records and streams video in 1080p whenever it detects motion; the camera is only enabled when motion is detected, so it’s not recording 24/7. Amazon Cloud Cam has night vision LEDs that can see in the dark, a microphone so it can hear, and a speaker so that you can talk through it, and it works with Alexa. To see what the camera can see, just ask Alexa to show your video feed. You can then watch live or watch the recorded clips on your phone or tablet, Amazon Fire TV, Fire tablet, Echo Show or Echo Spot. Of course, the main feature of a security camera is to let you know if something happens when you aren’t watching. Amazon Cloud Cam will notify your phone or Echo device whenever it thinks there’s something you should know about, such as the sound of breaking glass or an unauthorized visitor. You can adjust the frequency of the notifications by turning off 'Motion Detected' in the app’s Settings. Once notified you can watch the live feed on your phone, your Amazon device, or via your web browser. Amazon Cloud Cam also stores footage in the cloud so you can review it later, although if you don’t have a subscription that storage only lasts for 24 hours. What does Amazon Cloud Cam cost?At the time of writing, Amazon Cloud Cam is only available to Amazon customers in the US, and we're waiting to see if Amazon makes it more widely available. A single Cloud Cam costs $119.99 (roughly £95 / AU$170), or $139.99 (around £110 / AU$200) if you want one that works with Amazon Key, and multi-buy offers can reduce the price. You’ll also need a monthly or annual subscription to get the best from it. Keep an eye on Amazon sales events such as Amazon Prime Day and Black Friday, when Amazon tends to offer good deals on its own devices. What are the specifications of the Amazon Cloud Cam?http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/hNeTiWdke9Sre5iAhJW3CT.jpg Image credit: Amazon The Amazon Cloud Cam comes in a smart white finish, and has a 1080p camera that can record at up to 30fps, with eight infrared LEDs for night vision and a 120-degree field of view. There’s an ambient light sensor, an omni-directional microphone, a small speaker and a micro USB port with a 10-foot power cord. There’s no battery backup and no display; everything is controlled via the companion app. The app is available for iOS, Android and Fire OS. The Cloud Cam works with 802.11g and 802.11n Wi-Fi, and an upload speed of 2Mbps is recommended. Why do you need an Amazon Cloud Cam subscription?Amazon’s Cloud Cam may be a new product, but it’s based on the same old business model as traditional security systems: for the best protection you need to take out a subscription, and here that subscription comes in three different flavors: Basic, Extended and Pro – see below for details of these. Some of the Cloud Cam’s best features are only available to subscribers. Person detection uses intelligent image analysis to tell the difference between people and things, so you’ll be notified when the kids come home or if someone is trying to steal your TV, but you won’t be interrupted if a leaf blows past or a curtain moves. Zones are really useful. These enable you to tell Alexa to ignore particular bits of the room, so for example if you have glass doors or really big windows you can exclude them to prevent the slightest outside movement from triggering the alarm. Zones can also be used for indoor things such as fish tanks, or for walls that tend to get a lot of light reflections. http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/d9xTQpAjMuRtNEr6CQjWCT.jpg Image credit: Amazon How much do Amazon Cloud Cam subscriptions cost, and what do you get?The Basic plan gives you seven days of cloud storage and supports up to three cameras. Extended doubles the storage time to 14 days and supports up to five cameras, while Pro takes the storage up to 30 days and the number of cameras to 10. You’ll save a lot if you pay upfront for a year. The Basic plan is $6.99 a month or $69.99 a year, a saving of just under $14; Extended is $9.99 / $99.99, saving you just under $20; and Pro is $19.99 a month or $199.99 per year, a saving of just under $40. Should you be worried about privacy with Amazon Cloud Cam?That’s an interesting question. The official line is that your video is stored on Amazon’s servers and isn’t shared with any third parties, and Amazon has a pretty good record on security. However, we also know that a lot of Alexa’s intelligence comes from humans listening in, and in early 2018 Alexa accidentally sent an entire private conversation to someone in its owners’ address book – an accident that, according to Amazon’s explanation, required an almost impossible combination of extremely unlikely circumstances. So while you shouldn't have to worry too much, if you are concerned about privacy then you might want to be careful about what you do in view of your Cloud Cam What are the main rivals to Amazon Cloud Cam?http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/pFKJqN5zXfCs7q8TvWnpkE.jpg The Nest Hello. Image credit: TechRadar Google’s the big one here: its Nest products include two indoor cameras, an outdoor camera and a doorbell. They’re all more expensive than the Amazon Cloud Cam, though: the cheapest indoor camera is $199 / £159 / AU$249, although it’s sometimes discounted by retailers. Like Amazon Cloud Cam, Nest cameras need a subscription to unlock their best features: they’re $5 / £4 / AU$7 per month for five days of video history, $10 / £8 / AU$14 for 10, or $30 / £24 / AU$30 for 30 days of recording. That’s for one camera. Each additional camera requires a subscription too, and they’re billed at 50% of the normal cost – so it’s $2.50 / £2 / AU$3.50 to $15 / £12 / AU$15 per additional camera per month.

We certainly understand why many of the UK's biggest retailers have gone a bit quiet about their Huawei P30 Pro deals in recent months. Making headlines after Google had to cut ties with the company, there is no doubt that the Huawei brand is somewhat stigmatised right now. But in an odd turn of events, that now makes the best camera phone on the market a suddenly affordable option. A host of deals from Mobiles.co.uk mean you can now get a Huawei P30 Pro at a discount of up to £120. While there is a risk of Huawei losing its access to Android updates and other important features of the phone, there are also other possible outcomes. With Trump's next move almost impossible to predict and a number of American companies rallying against the ban and a proposed trade deal that could drop it all together, Huawei could go back to normal before we even know it. Or, if the ban stays in place, Huawei has proposed its own operating system that it plans to launch instead of Android. Either way, you'll have the world's second best smartphone at a majorly reduced price. We've listed all of the best Huawei P30 Pro deals from this Mobiles.co.uk price drop below. With prices as low as this, depending on how you see it, there has never been a better (or, possibly, worse) time to get this device. The ban still a worry to you? Check out our guide to the best mobile phone dealsThese cheap Huawei P30 Pro deals in full:How good is the Huawei P30 Pro?Before the ban took place, the Huawei P30 Pro was receiving praise as one of the most innovative devices out there, with a lot of that praise aimed at its camera. Sporting an incredible 50x zoom camera, smart AI camera features and an overall impeccable quality, nothing can quite match it. Backing up the camera is a high quality inifinity display screen, tonnes of power and a massive battery. In other words the Huawei P30 Pro is here battling for the spot of the world's best phone - just with more than a few reservations.

Electric cars are about to get a lot noisier. New legislation means that all hybrid and electric vehicles sold in the EU must be fitted with an acoustic vehicle alert system, which makes sound so pedestrians and cyclists aren't caught unawares. The rule applies to all four-wheeled vehicles (so motorbikes and electric scooters are exempt), and means cars and vans must make some noise when traveling under 12mph or reversing, helping avoid accidents in parking lots. Tesla Model Y release date, news and rumorsSelf-driving cars: everything you need to knowYour complete guide to electric vehiclesThere's no rule about what the sound should be, so different automakers are composing their own effects. Last year, Citroen unveiled the stubby-looking Ami One concept, which plays a jaunty tune to announce its arrival, whereas Mercedes-Benz hired Linkin Park to give its EVs a dose of rock. Yes, really. Crawling in my BenzTransport for London (TfL) is experimenting with acoustic alerts for electric versions of the city's iconic red buses, which are due to hit the streets later this year. Unfortunately, the proposed sound effects (which included a noise like someone blowing bubbles through water and intermittent beeps) haven't gone down too well in testing. According to The Guardian, John Welsman, a representative from Guide Dogs UK called the options "all very spaceshippy" and complained that none of them sounded anything like the traditional buses that blind people are used to hearing in London. “TfL want to know if they can create a sound that is not necessarily like a combustion engine, but is something new and unique," said Welsman. "The feedback from the room was that it would still need to be indicative of speed, direction, acceleration and deceleration of the vehicle.” Karaoke is coming to Teslas, and a music streaming service could be on the waySource: BBC http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/techradar/digital-home/~4/Di-0WBq0B5U

Got a bit of spare cash lying around and don't mind spending big upfront on your phone? Then boy do we have the deal for you. With two Samsung Galaxy S10 deals far below the average price, you will be hard pushed to find something better. So, what's so good about these Samsung phone deals. Where do we even start! Firstly, the standout feature - sub-£30 a month pricing. With one contract coming in at £26 a month and the other at £24, these deals drop the near £40 a month prices we've become used to with the Galaxy S10. On top of that, you're getting a pretty healthy 5GB of data with both contracts (on top of unlimited calls and texts), enough to see most casual users through their contract. And finally the clincher...these Samsung S10 deals have a mighty 512GB storage on board at the same cost you'd pay for the regular 128GB models. It's an upgrade that means the end to warnings about having to delete your catalogues of photos and downloaded albums and movies. The only real downside to these contracts is the upfront costs. With both costing over £150, the upfront spend is higher than average - got to make up for those cheap monthly bills somehow! You can see both of these affordable contracts down below or check our guide to the best mobile phone deals, just to see how much you're saving. http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/VgyagGS9HpAEPUQtUJBfrg.jpg Ready for big savings - check out whats to come with Amazon Prime Dayhttp://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/techradar/digital-home/~4/vmPB15SrcjY

If you're a gamer who thinks good audio quality is just as important as state-of-the-art graphics, you'll know how crucial a decent gaming headset is to your gaming experience. The best gaming headsets combine immersive directional sound, with a comfortable fit, and the flexibility to be worn as regular headphones when you need a break from battling your enemies; all features that Audio-Technica's latest headset models are set to offer, according to the Japanese audio company. The two new gaming headsets comprise the wired ATH-G1 and the wireless ATH-G1WL, both taking design inspiration from Audio-Technica's ATH-M50x professional studio headphones. The best PC gaming headsets in 2019Read our Audio-Technica ATH-ADG1X Open Air Gaming Headset reviewShould I buy the Sennheiser GSP 600 gaming headset?The company says both the new gaming headsets will "transform even the most demanding player's gaming sessions", thanks to their lightweight design and "proven studio audio quality". Stay wiredThe wired version of the gaming headset, the ATH-G1 is compatible with PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and any platform with a 3.5mm output. It's available to buy for $169 /£159 /$249. Inside the cans are 45mm drivers, which promise to provide a powerful sound, while Audio-Technica says the headset's 1,300mW input capacity "takes full advantage of dedicated sound cards to deliver a full-force gaming experience". Crucial to any battle royale game is a decent microphone for barking commands at your teammates, and helpfully the microphone's hypercardioid polar pattern (or the directions sound is picked up from in layman's terms) means it rejects unwanted noise and feedback, like the tapping of your keyboard as you frantically battle your enemies. That microphone is detachable too, so you can use the ATH-G1s as a pair of regular headphones if you wish. http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/CzLKHTw7yy4MfhsqWtWtXU.jpg Image credit: Audio-Technica Cutting the cordIf you don't like to have too many cables clogging up your gaming station you may want to opt for the wireless model, the ATH-GW1L gaming headset instead. With the same 45mm drivers and microphone as its wired sibling, Audio-Technica says the GW1Ls offer the "added flexibility of [a] stable, low-latency 2.4GHz wireless connectivity". Unlike the G1 headset, the GW1L also supports virtual surround, for an "even more immersive 3D audio gaming experience" – this is great if you're playing games with directional sound that alerts you the presences of friends (or foes). It comes with 15 hours of battery life, and has controls for surround sound, volume, and muting on the earcup. The G1WL is only compatible with laptops and PCs via its wireless USB Type A receiver, and is the more expensive of the two headsets at $249 / £229 / AU$349.

AMD has only announced two Navi graphics cards so far, but Sapphire, a popular aftermarket graphics card manufacturer, has registered trademarks for a bunch of new graphics cards. This includes the AMD Radeon RX 5950 and AMD Radeon RX 5900 – according to a tweet from hardware leaker Komachi, spotted by Videocardz. We already know that the AMD Radeon RX 5700 XT and AMD Radeon RX 5700 are coming out on July 7, but the rest of the AMD Navi lineup may have finally leaked out. We'll show you how to build a PCWe might see graphics card deals on Amazon Prime DayThe battle of AMD vs Nvidia is heating upThis registration lists more than a dozen new graphics cards, so it's unlikely that they will all actually see the light of day, so this could just be Sapphire covering itself in case of any new graphics processor (GPU) announcements. That doesn't mean that none of these listed GPUs will make it to market, however. We've already heard some rumors that AMD would launch up to five Navi graphics cards, with some more powerful GPUs coming out in 2020. So, some of these leaked model names may apply to new chips – likely the AMD Radeon RX 5800 or AMD Radeon RX 5900. The upcoming Radeon RX 5700XT and RX 5700 are supposed to compete against the Nvidia GeForce RTX 2070 and RTX 2060, so it would be nice to see more high-end SKUs potentially taking on the Geforce RTX 2080 Ti. Either way, we won't know for sure until AMD decides to share. Catch up on all the Nvidia Super RTX rumorsVia Wccftech http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/techradar/digital-home/~4/Q8RCjcQ19XQ

Set course for Paradise! A stacked UFC 239 card is just around the corner this Saturday, July 7 as the fiercest MMA fighters in the land head to the T-Mobile Arena in Nevada. And to make sure you're well prepared to watch all the action, ESPN+ has already officially opened PPV sales. There's no doubt what the main attraction will be when the UFC heads to the desert this weekend - Jon Jones defending his Light Heavyweight title against Brazilian veteran Thiago Santos. The controversial Jones has dominated the division for almost a decade and will be looking to avoid an upset in Nevada. But that isn't the night's only title fight as the awesome Amanda Nunes puts her Women's Bantamweight belt on the line against the official #1 rated bantamweight contender, Holly Holm. Both have wins against the legendary Ronda Rousey on their record - this should be a classic. Also on a typically packed card is the still-undefeated welterweight Ben 'Funky' Askren taking on Jorge Masvidal, while European fans are represented by Polish Jan Blachowicz as he faces Luke Rockhold.

We've got our hands on the UK's first 5G phone, the OnePlus 7 Pro 5G, and we're putting both the handset and EE's fledgling 5G network through their paces – is the future of super-fast mobile communications finally here, or is it still a case of the reality not quite living up to the hype? We'll be updating this article over the next 24 hours to share our experiences as we take the OnePlus 7 Pro 5G out and about in London, so stay tuned to find out how we got on. 5G in the UK: everything you need to know11am: say hello to 5GWe picked up our OnePlus 7 Pro 5G near the BT and EE offices in St Paul's, London – an area of the city that's particularly well covered by EE's new 5G network. It's one of the most congested areas for mobile network traffic in London, and EE has focused on these high-usage areas for the first phase of its 5G rollout. St Paul's is one of six 5G sites in the capital that EE turned on ahead of the May 30 launch its network in London and five other UK cities, in order to carry out testing. The other locations are Covent Garden, Kensington Gardens, Soho, The Strand and Chancery Lane. However the coverage, we're told, extends north to the vicinity of Highbury and Islington, east to Mile End, as far south as about Southwark, and west to Ealing. That means most of central London is covered – however there are still 5G blackspots within this area. The first thing we do when we get the OnePlus 7 Pro 5G in our hands is run a speed test on the Fast app, which gives us a speed of 220Mbps. That's some way off the 1Gbps-plus speeds 5G should be able to deliver consistently in the future, but it's comfortably more than the 15-20Mbps we were getting on our 4G device. 12pm: and then there was 4GAs we've mentioned, there isn't blanket 5G coverage across London, and as we stepped off the tube at Lancaster Gate (near Hyde Park), a check of the phone revealed we only had 4G connectivity. This area, along with Paddington, we're told, isn't currently covered by EE's 5G network, and a speed test of our 4G connection returned a result of 35Mbps. That's still pretty quick for 4G, but it's some way off the speeds we were enjoying just a few miles east. While the speeds in 5G areas are impressive, this highlights the fact that for many, this patchy coverage could cause frustration – most people are probably best holding off a 5G upgrade for the moment. EE says it's upgrading around 100 sites every month to 5G, and by this time next year (May/June) it plans to have 5G in 50 cites and towns around the UK. Again, coverage in these locations may not be a blanket – it depends on the size of the city, and the compliance of councils and landowners for upgrading/building masts. 1pm: the OnePlus 7 Pro 5Ghttp://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/nVRVEvXZX5pRKckhTxQPaT.jpg There's little visual difference between the OnePlus 7 Pro 5G and the standard 7 Pro. Image Credit: TechRadar Back in the office and we're taking a closer look at the OnePlus 7 Pro 5G. Apart from its 5G connectivity and a small 5G logo on its rear, it's identical to the non-5G version. It has the same 6.67-inch QHD display, Snapdragon 855 chipset, 8GB of RAM, 256GB of storage, triple rear cameras and Android 9 operating system. While it may look the same, OnePlus has actually had to do some major rearranging under the hood. During testing it found the antenna arrangement it was using in the 4G variant wasn't performing as efficiently in the 5G setup. This meant the 10 antennas on the 5G model had to be redesigned, which resulted in most of the internals also getting shifted around – and the addition of a larger heat sink, which should provide more effective cooling. The result is a phone which is very different internally from its non-5G sibling – not that you'd ever know from looking at it. Read our in-depth OnePlus 7 Pro review2pm: check your 5G coverageBefore setting out in search of more 5G, we decided to check the EE website for its 5G coverage maps. It offers a downloadable map of each of the six cities it's launched 5G in, which gives you a clearer indication of where you'll be able to get 5G, and where it won't be available. 4pm: in search of 5Ghttp://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/Gae8imxsRt2LxKJgTsUTW8.jpg A new 5G speed high! Image Credit: TechRadar Having located a patch of 5G coverage within walking distance from the office we set out, but as we approached the coverage area (according to EE's map) our phone still said we were only getting a 4G signal. As we walked further into the area, though, we were switched over to a 5G connection – while the coverage maps will give you a rough idea of where you can get 5G, don't take it as a guarantee, as there are still small pockets where it simply doesn't reach in these early days. Having settled into our new location we ran another speed test on the Fast app – and we saw a new high in terms of speed, with the OnePlus 7 Pro 5G showing 550Mbps. That's an impressive improvement over the speed we were getting earlier, but as we were now in a quieter part of the city it's not overly surprising, with fewer 5G handsets in the local area. That said, the speed you get is still highly variable. We ran the test twice more, and got results of 320Mbps and 410Mbps. That's still way faster than our 4G phone though, which was topping out at around 25Mbps. 5pm: downloading...While speed tests are all well and good, they don't give us any idea of real-world performance. So we downloaded a 1GB video in 'best quality' from Amazon Prime, and it took the OnePlus 7 Pro 5G just 43 seconds to get it on our device. We then did the same download on our 4G (with a Three SIM) OnePlus 7, and after 43 seconds we only had 20% of the same video downloaded. This is a very basic example of the power of 5G, and while faster downloads are good, in the coming years 5G will be able to offer much more. However, every new technology has to start somewhere and in the early days it's these fast downloads you'll likely hear a lot about. 10.45pm: flying on... 4G?We got to London Liverpool Street station - a location which, according to EE's coverage map, is slap bang in the middle of lots of 5G - for a train home and pulled out the OnePlus 7 Pro 5G for a quick speed test. While the coverage map suggests we should be in excellent 5G signal, and with few people around at the time of night reducing the demand on the network, we were disappointed to find only 4G signal available as we made our way across the concourse. However, with less network congestion we were able to achieve a whopping 4G speed of 280Mbps - the same as we were getting in some places on 5G earlier in the day. http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/WqMMEDp5cuVFC59uKTR7Gj.jpg Hitting high speed on 4G. Image Credit: TechRadar While the speeds we have been achieving on 5G are impressive, it's worth remembering that 4G can theoretically deliver 300Mbps (usually in lab conditions) and sometimes higher than that. You'll rarely see that in the real world though, thanks to network congestion caused by the sheer number of devices in one area. In the busy areas of London average 4G speeds can be around 15-20Mbps, while further out 80-100Mbps can be achieved. 7am: a 4G awakeningAs we woke in our home, way outside of London's current 5G coverage, we gave the OnePlus 7 Pro 5G another spin on the speed test on the 4G connection. We got 110Mbps per second at home, and 88Mbps at the station. 8am: 5G wrestling matchArriving at London Liverpool Street and we spotted 5G jumping in and out as we made our way across the station, although the 5G connection was just a couple of bars of signal and it was wrestling with full bars of 4G signal. As we got to the other side of the station the 5G connection became more stable, and we managed to clock a 5G speed of 250Mbps - not bad, but we got more than that on 4G the night before. However, while the 4G signal was strong, the network speed was greatly reduced as rush hour meant there were hundreds of people using the connection, so 5G was giving us a faster, more stable connection. 10am: still a work in progressIf you can find them, the 5G speeds available on EE are impressive, but it's very much a hit and miss affair, even if you are in an area of good 5G coverage. The limited spread of coverage, and highly variable speeds when you do find some 5G signal, makes it difficult to recommend just now, unless you both live and work in great coverage areas. If, like most of the population, you don't have the joy of 5G coverage at the locations you spend most of your time, your best bet is to hold off for at least a year. This will give the networks time to expand their 5G coverage to more cities, and smartphone manufacturers to launch more 5G phones, which in turn should help things become a little more affordable. Every 5G phone that's been announced so farhttp://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/techradar/digital-home/~4/nj6__BXWA9I

There are a handful of 5G phones available right now – if you're lucky enough to live in an area covered by the early rollout of the next generation network – and they all have one thing in common. The cost. At the moment you can only purchase flagship 5G smartphones, and with a high cost and limited 5G coverage to make full use of them on (they work fine on 4G as well), many prospective consumers are priced out of the market. Not that we'd recommend anyone dip their toe into the 5G water yet, with such limited coverage meaning it's difficult to take proper advantage of the increased speeds it offers, but it appears that consumers won't be the only ones holding off for a while. Every 5G phone you need to know aboutWhat about foldable phones?5G: everything you need to knowTechRadar attended a round-table interview with Samsung CEO, DJ Koh, saying that he expects consumers to turn to 5G in the next two to three years, once their current contract comes up for renewal, networks improve coverage, and mid-range 5G devices become available. Explaining that smartphones tend to last longer these days, "their lifespan is nearly 2.5 or even 3 years" Koh told us, Samsung expects the S10 5G to still provide a solid experience for those interested in getting a 5G device in 2020. That means the pressure could be off Samsung to produce affordable or cheap 5G phones in the next 12-18 months. "When carriers expand 5G coverage, customers [will make the switch] when they come to renew [their phone contract] in two to three years," Koh explained while adding "then I expect much faster expansion than LTE." Samsung is heavily rumored to launch at least one more 5G smartphone in 2019, but it looks set to be a variant of the Samsung Galaxy Note 10 which will likely carry an even bigger price tag than the S10 5G – it will certainly be far from affordable. Smartphones on the decline?The fast expansion of 5G will be helped by the introduction of affordable 5G devices and while it's not clear if Samsung is planning any in the next year or so, Koh has a positive outlook on the current 5G situation. "In 80 days we sold 1 million [s10 5G] devices [in Korea]... which is a good signal in terms of 5G deployment." However, in the coming years it may not be a 5G smartphone that you’re hankering after, instead it may be a 5G smart device. "Once 5G and Internet of Things era are available and expand quickly, we must think rather than smartphones", Koh explained. "we must think smart devices. Smartphones may decline, but new devices will emerge." Those thoughts are echoed by Samsung's Head of Design, Kang Yun-Je, who said "in the future, people may not carry a phone as there may be another way to make fast communication, and you may not want to take a large screen with you. 5G will have a significant impact on the design of mobile devices." What those 'smart devices' will be is yet to be defined, but Samsung already has other mobile devices such as tablets, smartwatches, fitness bands, earbuds and a 360 camera which could all benefit from 5G connectivity to provide various forms of communication. And while we may not see budget 5G handsets in the next year or so, Koh did leave us with the teasing line of "next year is looking quite promising for 5G", so we'll have to wait and see what Samsung has to offer in 2020.

Cheap GoPro prices and deals are our speciality here at TechRadar throughout the year. These tiny cameras have really made a name for themselves. In fact, these little action cameras are so good that the name GoPro is better known than action camera as a product category these days. The best of the best action cameras don't come cheap though - well most of the time at least. That's why we've rounded up all of the best GoPro sales, so that if you do want to buy one, you can get the best deal. Our GoPro prices are checked every day to make they're all up to date. If you're just after a regular camera deal, be sure to check out our guide to the best cheap cameras. And yes, GoPros can cost quite a bit more than similar models, but maye you'll get luck with an ace Amazon Prime Day deal. A model by model rundown of the best GoPro pricesTowards the top of our list we've started with a selection of the most recent releases, namely the latest GoPro Hero 7 prices. You can get some seriously discounted GoPro sales on older models as you get further down the page. Towards the end you'll find the GoPro drone prices too. GoPro themselves reduced the MSRP/RRP on a number of cameras recently to head off some pretty aggressive competition from rivals. Top of the our best GoPro prices list is the GoPro Hero 7 Black, but for those who don't need all those high-end features, there are plenty of other options to choose from. We'll run through the spec of each model making it easy for you to compare them all. So whether you're after the smoothest 4K scene shooting, or after a reliable budget price 1080p option, we've got you covered. http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/zpZiFNjT4brR6hRCUtTKrf.jpg The resolution and frame-rates may be similar to the older 6 series (we were bound to hit a wall sooner or later), but GoPro has vastly improved its enhanced form of image stabilization called HyperSmooth. This new motion smoothing technology can be used in numerous shooting modes to record the smoothest possible video running at 60fps. The voice-activated commands are more responsive than older models too. SuperPhoto tech performs automatic improvements on lighting colour and noise-reduction across multiple frames. ProTune options allow you to take the safety wheels off and tweak setting to your own particular style too. If you just can't wait to show off your days fun until you get home, you'll be delighted to hear you can now live stream with the GoPro Hero7 Black via the app on your phone, which has also been simplified to get you filming quicker than ever. Finally, unlike previous models in the GoPro Hero Black range, the camera is actually black this time, making mistitled deals much easier to spot. http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/YAJexe6LRLDHAua7eJ2RUR.jpg So you've seen that the GoPro Hero7 Silver prices are a decent whack cheaper than the Black edition. But what's the difference between the Hero7 Black and the Hero 7 Silver? The Silver still shoots in 4K but at 30fps instead of 60fps so the picture isn't as smooth, but still impressive. The 1080p fps capabilities are lower too. You don't get the new HyperSmooth, SuperSmooth or Live Streaming features either. For the price though, this is still an extremely capable, durable and waterproof action camera. There are cheaper models available on this page though if some of the features seem like overkill or it's still a bit pricey. http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/53jeaudayFpTnm3SDTP3AX.jpg That's seriously cheap for a new GoPro camera. The GoPro Hero7 White prices indicate this is the budget entry in the latest GoPro range, priced close to the original prices of the unnumbered Hero model released earlier in 2018 or the Hero Session line. As you can tell by the specs mentioned above compared to the other Hero7 cameras, this has a more entry-level feel with the main omission to note being the lack of 4K video shooting. You do get a touchscreen though. If you'd be happier with 4K shooting instead of a touchscreen though you might be able to get a similar price via one of our highlighted GoPro Hero5 Session deals further down this page. http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/TDUubrMyoZ5e9ks9dAVZf9.jpg This is still an excellent GoPro camera with 4K recording at a super smooth 60 fps (frame per second). Image stabilization is super important given the active lifestyles most GoPros record, so it's great to see this model improve even further on older ones. Even the 1080p recording has been improved with a boost to 240fps - excellent for maximizing those slow-motion shots! We expect the price to drop on this one over time with the new Hero7 Black now on the scene. If the prices are still close though, you may as well opt for the new one. http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/SJWmY4JPw22nUQbkzFcNJY.jpg The Hero5 Black is the GoPro we wanted for years. It was the first GoPro to have a waterproof design out-of-the-box, making it more resilient and the camera has enough to make it a convincing update on the older models. The picture quality is better, it has video stabilization and the touchscreen makes it easier to use than any other GoPro before it. Sale items aside, it's often cheaper than the older GoPro Hero 4 Black now too. http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/qR7PUEeKrT64MSRBJC225H.jpg Update: We'd imagine this model is going to be phased out soon despite still being quite new. This is because it's pretty much identical to the ever newer GoPro Hero7 White in terms of capabilities. Actually, it's looking like the Hero7 White is currently cheaper! Always worth keeping an eye on this one though as clearance sales should mean potential discounts. The simply-named GoPro Hero is cheaper than most other Hero models. You're not getting 4K capture options, but you are getting a display and a touchscreen, features many of you might miss from the other budget GoPro option, the GoPro Hero Session. There was an older GoPro Hero released years ago and if you want to avoid getting that one by mistake, avoid models with a big, round, red light on the front as they can pop up in search results. They're not much cheaper, sometimes even more expensive and aren't as good as this 2018 version. http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/RQPy5nj43ECpXERTzrXeRj.jpg The GoPro Hero5 Session is a capable 4K action camera with a minimalist design that pushes the specs to the max within its cube-shaped confines. The Hero5 Session is also a major specs boost for GoPro's tiniest action camera. It now shoots stabilized 4K video and has a variety of new field of view modes. It's more expensive than its predecessor, but it's well worth the upgrade. http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/oySUffffbqjfreMFtiTiYW.jpg The model, simply called the GoPro Hero Session, has replaced the very similar GoPro Hero4 Session. They're the same price and considerably cheaper than the most recent GoPro Hero5 Session. Actually, looking around at the various GoPro models, this looks like the cheapest of the lot seeing as the older GoPro Hero is proving hard to get a hold of nowadays. So if you want an entry level GoPro, this could be the one to go for. http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/1b88ce80101a6306704db3bb02164510.jpg Compared to the models before it, the GoPro Hero4 Black offers the best image quality, plus a 2x more powerful processor that delivers super slow motion at 240 frames per second. High-resolution 4K30 and 2.7K601 video combines with 1080p120 and 720p240 slow motion to enable immersive footage of you and your world. With the newer Hero5, Hero6 and even Hero7 models coming into the market, you can expect the Hero4 Black to hit its lowest prices ever. As things stand many retailers are selling it for more than the Hero5! However, if you can stand paying a little more for superior image quality, it may be worth checking out the deals on the newer model (see above) before opting for this one. http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/3daa9614cab712ac0669578d6184e27e.jpg UPDATE: This model has now been widely discontinued in the UK and Australia, but retailers could still have some stock available. The GoPro Hero4 Silver was the first-ever GoPro to feature a built-in touch display. Controlling the camera, framing shots and playing back content is very convenient with this model – just view, tap and swipe the screen. This GoPro captures 1080p60 and 720p120 video, plus 12MP photos at 30 frames per second. It's not the best anymore, but it often cheaper than the GoPro Hero4 Black model above. http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/p2K7ksmB7BjBaTEgUwhUZf.jpg 11: GoPro Karma Drone pricesLooking to take to the skies with your GoPro camera? There are certainly cheaper camera drones available, but this is one of the best premium setups out there. You can buy the drone on its own (often listed as 'GoPro Karma Light' or 'GoPro Karma with harness'), or get it bundled with the excellent GoPro Hero5 Black camera (some retailers may start to replace these bundles with the more modern Hero6 or Hero7 models instead). We've also included price comparison charts for both below, but you may be able to save a bit of cash by buying the drone and camera separately (check out the various GoPro Hero Black deals near the top of this page). You'll find the best GoPro Karma prices below though. http://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/eaV3kfiKqe8HZw8guGnRxS.jpg http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/techradar/digital-home/~4/4mKDBNeFO1k

When you think of Huawei and U-turns you might think of the Huawei P30's notch, but now something else springs to mind – Donald Trump has softened his attitude to the Chinese telecoms company, so we could see the Huawei ban lifted soon. Speaking at the G20 summit in Japan, Trump signalled a lifting of the ban on US companies selling to Huawei, at least in the vague verbal way Trump is wont to do – but it could signal the end of uncertainty around Huawei products. "US companies can sell their equipment to Huawei," Trump stated, specifying "I'm talking about equipment where there is no great national emergency problem". Since issues surrounding Huawei and spying haven't been resolved, that doesn't necessarily mean the US companies will leap at the opportunity to sell products, but it does show the end of the reactionary politics that defined the start of the Huawei ban. It's not clear exactly which companies Trump was referring to in lifting the ban. "We have a lot of the great companies in Silicon Valley and based in different parts of the country that make extremely complex equipment - we're letting them sell to Huawei," he stated. That could range from hardware companies like ARM which stopped working with Huawei, to the well-publicized Google Android ban on Huawei phones. When we asked Huawei for comment, it only stated "We acknowledge the US President's comments relating to Huawei yesterday and have no further comment at this time," which is the same statement it sent to other publications, and at time of writing Google had not responded to requests for comment. Could the Huawei Android ban be lifted?It seems the answer could come soon, as Trump stated the Huawei situation will be a subject discussed with China during the newly-resumed trade talks. "We're going to work with China on where we left off," the US President confirmed, seemingly signalling the end to rising tensions. We've passed the half-way point in the 90-day grace period the US Commerce department gave Google to work with Huawei, but this means that time could well be extended or the limit removed altogether. While some companies cut off their relationships with Huawei after the US 'entity list' ban, several other companies like Intel and Qualcomm lobbied against the ban, stating it could cause huge damage to American companies. It seems, therefore, like a quick answer would be preferable for everyone – not least of all Huawei, as the move has led to questions from consumers over whether its smartphones will be fully supported due to the US ban. Currently, nothing's changed – but it's likely that Trump's quotes mark the end of deteriorating relationships between these various governments and companies, and we could see future Huawei phones run future Android operating systems after all. Future Huawei phones will get the Android Q update at the very leasthttp://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/techradar/digital-home/~4/HxcUEIjkLLQ

Chances are that if you’re reading this, you are already aware of or are a part of the ballooning gaming industry in India. There are reports from different research firms which further substantiate the fact that this rise is only going to get bigger. With PUBG Mobile at the forefront of this rise, popular FPS franchise Call of Duty has also announced its mobile game that is expected to go live sometime later this year. And even though there aren’t major games that provide a great experience, smartphone makers have already jumped in on the bandwagon with their collective intelligence put into developing gaming phones. Black Shark 2, the second of its generation is one such gaming phone that recently made its way to India. With features such as liquid cooling, performance mode, custom touch, RGB lighting and haptic feedback, Black Shark 2 ticks the essentials box as it comes with all the bells and whistles that generally appeal to gamers. On the other hand, there's the OnePlus 7, a premium smartphone that doesn't come with the tag of a gaming phone but is unabashedly powerful when it comes to the daily usage experience. Price and availabilityThe base variant of the Black Shark 2 with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage retails for Rs 39,999 while the maxed-out model has 12GB of RAM and 256GB storage. It is available in two colours-- Shadow Black for 6GB variant and Frozen Silver for 8GB variant. OnePlus 7 starts at Rs 32,999 for the starter pack with 6GB of RAM and 128GB storage while the top-end model retails for Rs 37,999 with 8GB of RAM and 256GB storage. There’s a chic Red colour its available in (apart from Mirror Gray) which is exclusive to India and China. We’re pitting the base model of Black Shark 2 (6GB RAM + 128GB storage, Shadow Black) against the buffed up OnePlus 7 (8GB RAM + 256GB storage, Red) to see how they fare and whether or not the gaming phone premium is worth paying up for. Build and handlingJust by looking at both the phones side-by-side, you straightaway know that these are channeling two different vibes. Black Shark 2 is a dedicated gaming smartphone flush with RGB lighting and its make, inspired by that of a sports car while OnePlus 7 has the no-nonsense smooth glass back that looks elegant, especially the red -colour. Unlike the OnePlus 7, Black Shark 2’s chassis is largely frosted metal with a layer of glass and green accents running throughout the back panel providing additional grip. The aluminum frame curves rather sharply around the edges and has green accents from where the metal frame merges into the screen. The OnePlus 7 is 0.6mm sleeker and also weighs 23 grams less than the Black Shark 2 (8.8mm, 205g). It has an aluminum construction with a glass back that is topped with Gorilla Glass 5, albeit without ridges and grooves that we see on the Black Shark 2. Picking up both the phones, the OnePlus 7 immediately feels a bit slimmer and lightweight than Black Shark 2. It is also more compact which is why one can hold it strongly in the hand as opposed to Black Shark 2 which isn’t comfortable to hold for longer durations. The display on the Black Shark 2 measures 6.39-inches diagonally and is an AMOLED panel with Full HD+ (2340 x 1080 pixels) resolution. The screen has a 19.5:9 aspect ratio with thick bezels on top and bottom. Additionally, the screen supports low latency touch input with upto 240Hz response rate which theoretically helps users in reducing the time it takes for the touch input to be registered when playing games. However, the screen on the OnePlus 7 proves to be much better at producing an immersive full-screen experience. Due to the implementation of waterdrop-style notch design, the phone has a 19.5:9 aspect ratio but also a slightly higher screen to body ratio than the Black Shark 2. It is fitted with a 6.4-inch AMOLED screen that has a Full HD+ (2340 x 1080 pixels) resolution and is topped with a layer of Gorilla Glass 6. There are mild differences between the two displays which will only be noticeable if you look at it side by side. The display on the Black Shark 2 is optimized slightly towards the warmer side by default but it can be calibrated with preset colour profiles. Otherwise, both phones have great displays to play games and watch content. It’s just that the OnePlus 7 is able to provide a less intrusive viewing experience and one that will appeal to most casual gamers. Even ergonomically, the OnePlus 7 gets the point as it is handier and feels premium in the hand. Black Shark 2, because of the design of its back panel feels more rugged in the hand and that heft only attests to the fact. Playing on it becomes tad a bit uncomfortable if you’re giving long hours to your favourite games. Performancehttp://cdn.mos.cms.futurecdn.net/aVnZV56fwkE2uLkoJ7tXsB.jpg An area of contention between the phones, performance is something that relies not only on the hardware but also on the software experience. Under the hood, both phones are powered by top-of-the-line Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 chipset with an octa-core CPU and Adreno 640 on graphics duty. The area where they differ is the Android 9.0 Pie based OS implementation. Black Shark 2 uses JoyUI, which is very close to stock Android while the OnePlus 7 comes with OxygenOS, arguably one of the best user interfaces in the market. Both kinds of interface come with their fair share of features that enhance performance while playing games. The Black Shark 2 has a physical slider key that’s called Shark key which puts the phone into Shark Space mode. This is where the games on the phones are listed and can be accessed. There’s a game dock overlay that is just a corner swipe away. The dock gives us certain essential controls over audio, notification, Wi-Fi along with providing real-time frame-rate and temperature data. In addition, the phone offers advanced control over performance, display, touch, audio, network and RGB lighting from the Gamer Studio tab. The phone can be set to maximum performance by enabling Ludicrous Mode from here. The mode turns off lighting effects and vibration till it's engaged, pushing the Snapdragon 855 to its limits. OnePlus 7 has RAM Boost which figures out which apps do I use more frequently and keeps it pre-loaded in the background. Whenever such an app is launched, the memory management system gives it a boost which enables it to speed up the launch process. While the OnePlus 7 is not out-and-out a gaming phone, it doesn’t shy away from including few dedicated features. Fnatic mode, named after its maker, Fnatic-- an esports organization, is one such feature which has been developed by pro-gamers. A dialog box pops up every time a game is launched with an option to enable the Fnatic mode. In this mode, CPU, GPU and RAM are optimized along with controls over notifications, calls among others. What's it like to play games on these phones?When it comes to real-world performance, I played several games on the phones including PUBG Mobile, Arena of Valor, Asphalt 9, Call of Duty Mobile, Marvel's Contest of Champions, Injustice 2 and Mortal Kombat, among others. Testing the phones through Gamebench, which is a benchmarking tool for measuring frame-rate and testing gaming performance, we found out that both the phones display mild differences in performance. In a game like PUBG Mobile, the frame rate is locked at 40fps, and both the phones were able to maintain that very easily. However, the frame-rate stability was mostly high on the OnePlus 7 with Black Shark 2 following its tail. But once the Ludicrous mode kicks in, there's an exponential increase in the performance of Black Shark 2. I got over 98% frame-rate stability all the time while playing games in that mode. For the most part, playing on the OnePlus 7 and Black Shark 2 felt very similar as they can run all the available games without breaking a sweat. The Ludicrous mode does come in handy, but you compensate for thermals in that mode. The Gamebench app registered twice the spike in temperature when a game is launched in Ludicrous mode than the normal. Thankfully for the Black Shark 2, it makes do with a new liquid cooling solution which uses six different panels housed inside for increased cooling. Still, the area around the camera module gets a bit warm after a round of PUBG Mobile, though it's manageable. Thermal management is an area where the Black Shark 2 shines. Overall though, OnePlus 7 has better system optimizations which translate to a speedier phone topped with OxygenOS making the experience a lot smoother. The JoyUI doesn't look, and neither feels well-optimized and fast enough in regular use. AudioBoth phones come with stereo speakers on top and bottom. The ones on the Black Shark 2 are 25% larger than standard, while the ones on the OnePlus 7 are tuned by Dolby Atmos. In my use, the audio on the OnePlus 7 was much better, louder and richer in comparison to the Black Shark 2. There isn’t a huge difference between the two but it's only when you hear the speakers on the OnePlus 7 and Black Shark 2 side-by-side that lead me to that conclusion. BatteryBlack Shark 2 comes fitted with a 4,000mAh battery with support for 27W fast charging. On the other hand, OnePlus has a slightly lesser battery capacity at 3,700mAh and supports 20W fast charging. On a 100% charge, users will be able to play for 4+ hours on either of the phones. However, Black Shark 2, due to its bigger battery should last longer than the OnePlus 7 on regular mode. In Ludicrous mode, one can accept a playtime of around 3.5 hours on the Black Shark 2 before it runs out of juice. VerdictBetween the Black Shark 2 and OnePlus 7, my vote goes with the latter because of a couple of reasons. It’s sleek, lightweight, can be held in hands for long, perform more or less same, has a powerful OS that’s equally well optimized and slightly better audio quality. For all its differences, both the phones are great at what they do. However, there isn’t a shortage of good, playable mobile phone games right now, which require a dedicated setup. Black Shark 2 is compatible with Gamepad 2.0, but it isn’t available to purchase either from Flipkart or from its website. So, if you’re confused between which phone to pick out of the two, ask yourself if you’ll be using it as your primary driver. If your answer is yes, OnePlus 7 is the most sensible phone to go with because you’d not feel the extra heft that comes with the Black Shark 2, physical as well as price-wise. OnePlus 7 provides a great gaming experience for casual gamers and is a value for money deal. Black Shark 2 reviewOnePlus 7 reviewhttp://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/techradar/digital-home/~4/U_QOhWi9mts

Negli ultimi anni i camera phone si sono evoluti in maniera incredibile, al punto da sostituire gran parte della fotocamere compatte punta e scatta. Non contenti ora hanno messo nel mirino anche il settore delle fotocamere di livello superiore grazie a funzioni come l'effetto bokeh, le foto con pochissima luce e zoom ottici sempre più spinti. Oppo è stato il primo produttore di camera phone a realizzare fotocamere con sistemi prismatici che permettono di mettere a punto zoom ottici superiori ai classici 2x presenti su molti smartphone. L'Oppo Reno 10X Zoom integra un meccanismo di zoom ibrido che consente di realizzare dieci ingrandimenti reali e ben 60 digitali. Reno 10X Zoom è il modello top di Oppo, come dimostra il chipset Snapdragon 855 con 8GB di RAM e 256GB di memoria. Particolare il design a tutto schermo con la fotocamera anteriore che fuoriesce con un meccanismo a baionetta. Si tratta di un modello molto interessante anche a livello design e a nostro parere offre il meglio nella colorazione Ocean Green. Uno dei dettagli che preferiamo per esperienza personale è il sistema antigraffio della fotocamera posteriore che abbiamo trovato efficace. La fotocamera principale ha un sensore da 48MP Sony, un grandangolare da 8MP e un tele da 13MP. In questo modo Oppo Reno 10X zoom non avrà problemi a catturare dettagli durante il giorno, realizzare immagini curate di notte e a sfruttare le capacità di teleobiettivo e grandangolo. Ma non è la sola fotocamera a brillare nel progetto Oppo Reno 10X Zoom: tutte le sue caratteristiche sono al top e può veramente confrontarsi con chiunque. http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/techradar/digital-home/~4/V4JjZSxjeeQ

Half-Life 3 has once again been teased by Gabe Newell – this time at an event celebrating the launch of the Valve Index VR headset. We’ve been waiting for Half Life 3 for a long time now (Valve’s last game in the series, Half-Life 2: Episode 2, was released back in 2007), so any potential news of the much-anticipated game will surely excite anyone who’s keen for closure on Gordon Freeman’s story. Best VR games: the top virtual reality games to play in 2019The best VR headset 2019: which headset offers the most immersion for your buck?Valve Index vs HTC Vive Pro vs Oculus Rift S: the VR headset showdownNewell, who’s the co-founder and president of Valve, said at the launch that “Milestones aren’t really the end of anything, they’re really the beginning. So Half-Life led to Half-Life 2, Source led to Source 2, the experiments that we did with Team Fortress 2 were what enabled us to build Dota… So, maybe someday the number 2 will lead us to that shiny integer glowing on a mountain someplace… we’ll just have to see.” Now, that’s not concrete evidence that Half-life 3 is being made, and Newell is known for cheekily referring to Valve’s long-absent game, but at TechRadar we’re ever the optimists when it comes to the likelihood of eventually seeing (and playing) Half-Life 3. Plus, Newell wouldn’t be so cruel as to keep raising our expectations and then dashing them again just for a joke… would he? Wire-free Valve IndexAt the event, Newell also hinted that the company is looking at ways to make a wireless version of the Valve Index headset. “We are looking at several methods of doing an untethered Valve Index," he said. "We have a lot of ideas for kind of revolutionary things to do with the display and optical technology, and lots of opportunities to continue to improve.” Using the launch of a product to tease a potential upgraded future version, as well as a much-hyped game, isn’t particularly conventional, but then Newell has never much cared for conventions. Let’s just hope that we may see Half-Life 3 one day, at least. Frustrated by Valve, fans bring VR to Half-Life 2http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/techradar/digital-home/~4/HBW2g5vZUH4
