The series' lowest point despite its attractive visuals? Currently, review platforms like Metacritic are being bombarded with negative comments about the new Call of Duty iteration. Aside from the game's scope (DLC content for the price of a full game) being criticized, people also aren't saying the best things about its campaign (missions, story, etc). We have primarily taken a closer look at this new release's tech.

Possibly reference-grade. The Ninebot KickScooter Max G2 is one of the latest e-scooters from Ninebot/Segway and has a starting price of around €800 (US$857). For that amount of money, you are getting a 551 Wh battery, which should provide a range of up to 70 km (44 mi), a powerful 450 W motor, hydraulic suspension at the front and back, and 10-inch wheels.

The brakes are off: The laptop with that special edge is back. In the new 18 mm thin Zenbook, Asus has installed extremely powerful hardware and finally lets it off the leash. The Nvidia GeForce RTX 4080 in our test unit has up to 140 watts at its disposal and is thus in no way inferior to its siblings in many gaming laptops.
