FOR bezel-less design, premium build quality, Integrated soundbar

The good vibe

At first glance, the BenQ W4100i looks almost identical to the W4000i we reviewed back in 2023. Same compact chassis, same offset lens that keeps the profile neat, and the same chunky but reassuringly tactile zoom, focus and lens-shift controls that make installation refreshingly straightforward. But while the body hasn't really changed, what's inside absolutely has. BenQ has layered on smarter HDR handling, a new settings interface, and a feature set that makes this projector more refined, versatile, and frankly, more future-proof than its predecessor.

There's a silent revolution happening in the Indian television market, and VU is right at the heart of it. This isn't a battle for the most extravagant, eye-watering technology, but a more subtle skirmish for the hearts and wallets of the average Indian consumer. With the new Vibe DV QLED TV, VU aims to be the undisputed champion of the mid-range segment by offering a feature that most of us have had to buy separately: a proper soundbar. The company is marketing the Vibe as the world's first QLED TV with an integrated soundbar. But is this all-in-one approach a smart consolidation or a compromise? Let's find out.

Pro-Ject nails the affordable Bluetooth turntable recipe

There are some combinations that work beautifully, even if you wouldn't necessarily consider putting them together in the first place. Beans on toast is an odd combination when you think about it, as is surf and turf, while carrots in a cake has no right to be as good as it is. Mixing poached eggs with smoked salmon is essentially combining poultry and fish, but no one complains when a bougie brunch spot has Eggs Royale on the menu, do they?
