Engadget review recap: Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8, Meta Glasses and more
A roundup of recent reviews published by Engadget.
Engadget recently published a roundup of their latest reviews, including the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8, Meta smart glasses, DJI Osmo Pocket 4P, Canon EOS R6 V, and Alienware 15.
The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 features a shorter, wider design compared to previous models, which according to senior reviews editor Sam Rutherford, makes it a more attractive choice for users who enjoy gaming and watching videos. The company's approach to improving the foldable phone experience seems to have paid off.
Meta's first set of smart glasses, not a collaboration with a major eyewear brand, offer similar features to their previous models but lack the polish of their competitors. For prescription lenses, the Optics line is recommended despite its higher price, while the Oakley versions are suitable for athletic activities. However, Meta's own glasses are a great value.
DJI's dual-lens Osmo Pocket 4P camera represents a significant upgrade in the company's pocket-sized gimbal camera lineup. Despite its unavailability in the US, it is considered a solid evolution for DJI's Pocket series, albeit with a higher resale price or requiring purchase at the manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP).
Canon's EOS R6 V camera caters to vloggers, delivering stellar video performance. Nevertheless, its photo capabilities are considered subpar, making it a suitable choice for those prioritizing video over photography.
Finally, Alienware has introduced its budget gaming laptop, the Alienware 15, in response to the increasing laptop prices due to component costs. Although the screen and webcam could be better, the laptop remains a worthwhile option for those seeking a more affordable gaming experience.
