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. 🔧

Motorola Moto X4 review: X in name only

For quite some time now, the Moto X series has been neglected by Lenovo and Motorola, in fact for a while no new models have been seen. Motorola’s X factor returns to the limelight, however, and it does so with the Moto X4, which celebrated its debut at the IFA 2017. I have had the opportunity to thoroughly test the smartphone and here’s what I think.

Samsung Gear Fit2 Pro review: Smart and swim-proof

The Gear Fit2 Pro is Samsung’s latest smart fitness band. It made its debut at IFA 2017 and is the successor to the Gear Fit2. It’s an iterative improvement, which may be why Samsung opted to keep the same number for it. Though it doesn’t represent a major evolution of the first generation, there may be some new features which warrant a closer look, especially for swimmers.
