In This Article
OnePlus has officially announced theOnePlus Pad Go, a budget Android tablet that could be a great option for bargain seekers.
The cheaper version of theOnePlus Pad, which will cost £299 when it goes on sale, is £150 cheaper than the RRP of the original (although it can be nabbed for much cheaper). It is headlined by an 11.3-inch LCD display with a 90Hz refresh rate.
This Steam Deck-beater is available at a great price
The Asus ROG Ally PC gaming handheld is a power alternative to the Steam Deck with a better design. You can now grab it for £494.10 at Very with the code VTQBK.
The resolution is 2408 x 1720 pixels, while the display can manage an advertised brightness of 400 nits. The media experience is boosted by the inclusion ofDolby Atmossupport, which is notable at this price point.
There’s a large 8,000mAh battery backing (with 33W charging), the relatively powerful Helio G99 chipset and 8GB of RAM, while the operating system, is still based on Android 13. You’ll get 128GB of storage in the base model. There’s also a microSD card slot to enable you to easily boost storage down the line.
There will be two operating system updates to bring you up to this year’s forthcoming Android 15 at some point. There are a pair of 8-megapixel cameras, one on the front and one on the back. There’s only Wi-Fi 5 here, while Bluetooth 5.2 will handle the connectivity to audio accessories.
