  • Joker review: Joaquin Phoenix carries this supervillain’s dark origin story through its own dopey social commentary

    October 3, 2019

    On social media site Reddit there is a section called “Am I the asshole?”, where concerned users submit situations in which they feel they may have been in the wrong, to seek a kind of masturbatory catharsis from a jury of their peers.  There are arguments with strangers, disputes with family members, feuds in the [...]

  • Nintendo Switch Lite review: The quirky hybrid has become a conventional handheld

    October 2, 2019

    Nintendo has a reputation for updating its consoles mid-generation, not long after launching them, to the extent that it’s become a little risky to be an early adopter. Why spend a few hundred pounds on a device that will be refined into something neater in 12 months, as the Nintendo DS was with the DSi, [...]

  • Super Soco TC Max review: A stylish and speedy electric moped with classic 60s swagger

    October 2, 2019

    Electric motorcycles are about as close to real life Tron as you can get without tying an orange bed sheet to the back of your bike and only ever turning at 90 degree angles. Riding one is an experience akin to gliding around on a ghostly steed, the only sound the quiet rumble of rubber [...]

  • Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ review: The best stylus-driven phone you can shake a stick at

    October 2, 2019

    Samsung’s Note series has traditionally offered performance-obsessed customers the most powerful phones it’s possible to buy. If a flying saucer popped out from behind the moon tomorrow and challenged the human race to come up with the most advanced seven-inch slab of glass and metal we could manage, we’d be sending a box these things [...]

  • The Vintage Hotel & Spa, Lisbon review: A slice of mid-century modern luxury living in the heart of Portugal’s capital

    October 2, 2019

    The five star Vintage Hotel & Spa in Lisbon underwent a dramatic renovation earlier in the year, and has emerged as a monument to mid-century interior design, the kind of place you’d expect to spot Don Draper nursing a whisky. The striking vintage aesthetic was achieved by Quiet Studios and begins the moment you step [...]

  • From sunken sculptures to rusting Soviet planes, Grenada is an island brimming with mystery

    October 2, 2019

    There’s a human silhouette looming out of the depths. The waves above have churned up the sand below, and now the sediment coils above the seabed like a strange mist, like something out of a Stephen King novel.  I pop my head above the surface to fill my lungs with as much air as they [...]

  • FuroSystems Furo X review: A slick and stylish carbon fibre electric folding bike with buckets of power

    October 1, 2019

    It took a short while for them to find one another, but now that they’re together, electric bikes and folding bikes are a match made in heaven.  Either one is essential for those of us intending to commute partly by public transport and partly by bike, and without arriving at the office a sweating, stinking, [...]

  • Silversands Grenada review: The longest pool in the Caribbean, the most luxurious hotel in Grenada

    September 30, 2019

    The one hundred metre long infinity pool that joins Silversands Grenada’s atrium style lobby to the pristine sands of Grand Anse Beach is the longest in the Caribbean.  But that’s not the first clue that this modern hotel is a unique proposition on this historic island. That would be the moment you’re collected from the [...]

  • Purezza review: The UK’s first plant-based pizzeria is also its best

    September 11, 2019

    Though it sounds like it might be a hand soap, Purezza is in fact the UK’s first plant-based pizzeria, with a branch in Brighton and a new opening in Camden. To prove it’s not just for vegans, the restaurant handily won top prize at this year’s World Pizza Championship in Italy (it’s a thing), with [...]

  • Google Nest Hub Max review: The best smart home hub you can buy

    September 11, 2019

    Last year’s Nest Hub placed the Google Assistant at the centre of the connected home, integrating a voice-activated speaker and display into a single device. It brought together disparate smart home services from competing companies – lightbulbs, locks, cameras and thermostats – into one easy to use dashboard, so you could control your house from [...]
