500: maintenance mode

Greetings from the Engine Room!

Sorry, but there's really nothing to see here right now. Our server is in maintenance mode – and our little bot is trying to sort the error messages with its last bit of energy.

Whether it was a data leak, a power outage in the cluster, or just a grumpy bit – we don't know yet. But what we do know is:

The data drama escalated into a server meltdown. But don't worry: We're on it.

What now?

Everything is surely running smoothly over at our colleagues from inside digital – why not stop by!
Or you could pass the time by visiting our social media channels – for example Instagram, YouTube or TikTok. At least there are no server problems there – promised.

Thanks for your patience. Our bot is already rebooting at full speed. 🔧

OnePlus’ Watch 3 is a Standout Smartwatch, And It’s $55 Off Right Now

While there are many smartwatches to choose from, only a few are truly reliable. For Android users, one of the best options to consider is the OnePlus Watch 3. Right now, the 46 mm variant of the smartwatch is on sale at Amazon, dropping back to its record-low price of $294 from its usual $350. This slashes the price by $55 (16%).

Is the Watch GT 6 Pro Huawei’s Most Outdoor-Focused Watch Yet?

To improve on what was already a very capable smartwatch, Huawei added a set of practical upgrades to the Watch GT 6 Pro. This is a versatile wearable that combines a refined, angular design with a solid lineup of fitness and health tools. Huawei is clearly targeting amateur and beginner athletes, while still offering features useful to performance-focused users. Spoiler alert: I liked the GT 6 Pro overall, but it still falls short of delivering a complete smartwatch experience.

Apple Just Made My Old Watch Too Good to Replace

In 2023, I upgraded my Apple Watch from the Series 5 to the Series 9, mainly because the hardware leap between those generations finally made it worth it. Until then, I never really felt the need to upgrade. Like many people in the workforce, I’m not swapping devices every year. I’m very aware of planned obsolescence and appreciate companies that extend the value of existing hardware through software updates. And yesterday, Apple gave me the best reason to stick with my Series 9 for at least the next 12 months.

Everyone Has Been Waiting for this Function – New Smart Ring Revealed

Smart rings have now established themselves as serious competitors to classic wearables. They are compact, look stylish, and are particularly suitable for all those who want smart functions but prefer to wear an analog watch. The Imiki Ring 2 fulfills exactly this role – and also offers a feature that has hardly been found in smart rings to date.

Over a Month of Battery Life in a Smartwatch? That’s the Promise Here

Withings has just announced what it calls the new ScanWatch 2, but in truth, this is not an entirely new generation. The hardware is essentially the same as that of the ScanWatch 2 released in 2023. What has changed is the software. Withings is leaning on updated algorithms, new features like the Vitality Indicator, and deeper use of the existing temperature sensor to expand what the watch can do. The company is also adding a fresh blue/silver 42 mm design option, but the real story here is software, not mechanics.

What Makes Garmin’s New Flagship Watch Different From Every Other Smartwatch

Garmin just launched the Fenix 8 Pro series, and this time the adventure watch line is not just about rugged design and multi-sport tracking. The headline is twofold: a brand-new MicroLED display and, for the first time on a Garmin watch, built-in LTE and two-way satellite communication. That means the Fenix 8 Pro can keep you reachable on a trail run without your phone and still send an SOS when you are completely off-grid.
