The Gaming Laptop – ASUS RoG STRIX GL702 Review
The ASUS RoG STRIX GL702 Review is by Cameron, my 18yr old Head of Tech and Media (really, I have no business near this laptop, not knowing my League of Legends from my Battlefield Go; it seemed better I hand it over to Head Gamer). And this is what he thought… Readers warning; this will be a nerdy review. And I’m not even sorry. “Compact and Potent” is the leading selling point on the ASUS website, and frankly I’ve...
The lightest, thinnest, fastest (& prettiest) laptop – the ASUS ZenBook 3 Review
It’s a conversation I see a lot in my online social circles; “I’m looking for a new laptop. It needs to handle all my work, but also needs to be light to carry around. Any suggestions?”. Yes, yes I do. Just for you, here’s the ASUS ZenBook 3 Review. For bloggers and writers and photographers, it’s the same perennial issue (and yes, it’s no doubt the same for many others too) – we...
New Curriculum AQA A-level Economics Practice Test Papers from Letts

But if you walk into the exam room and know exactly what to expect – what your exam paper will look like, how the marking scheme works, how long to spend per question...
Asus ZenPad 3S 10 review
We’ve been working with ASUS, trying out some of their latest tech in a family setting, to see if we can work out from a baffling array of options which is best for which job in the house. This week my gaze turned to the Asus ZenPad 3S 10 review – which was snaffled swiftly away by the 14yr old, and borrowed heavily when his back is turned by the 10yr old. They’ve been so busy with it that I’d barely had a...
Honestly? I didn’t get it (or the Asus ZenBook Flip Review )
When Asus sent me the ZenBook Flip (the UX360CA model, for those to whom the extra letters matter) I’ll be honest. I didn’t really get it.Oh, don’t get me wrong, I know why I love my tablet. I also know why I need a laptop. But a hybrid laptop? Why do I need something that can’t make up its mind (*whispers* and probably therefore ends up doing neither properly)? On unpacking I was actually surprised...
