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. 🔧

Robust Class B e-dirtbike: Niu XQI3 Review

A crazy rate of acceleration thanks to the equivalent of 15 hp, an all-terrain suspension, and road approval as a scooter? Hardly any other review unit attracted as much attention as the Niu XQI3. The e-dirtbike actually excelled in the review with a lot of riding fun and proved to be a good electric way through heavy city traffic. Is this the perfect e-vehicle for all those who find scooters too boring?

Soundcore AeroClip Review: Wonderfully Weird

Finally, a pair of open-ear earbuds that feature some bass! Our first impression of the AeroClip was so impressive that we almost saw them as the salvation of open-ear earbuds for audiophiles. In the course of our nextpit review, however, it became clear to accept some disadvantages when it comes to audio quality. The review reveals what these are and whether the Soundcore AeroClip is worth buying!

Roborock Saros 10 Tested: High-End Features with a Hefty Price Tag

Roborock’s S series has been a reliable choice for those looking for a powerful and high-quality robot vacuum cleaner. Many models received top ratings in our reviews, and I have personally been using the S7 MaxV for around three years now. However, a new era is beginning for Roborock with the launch of the Saros series. The company presents a completely new product line of high-end robot vacuum cleaners. We took a closer look at the first model in this series to figure out whether it’s worth buying. The Roborock Saros 10 and Saros 70 models are the first in the series, with the Saros 70 being an experimental model with an integrated gripper arm, where its price remains unknown. The Saros 10, on the other hand, meets all the expectations of a high-end robot vacuum cleaner in 2025. I had the opportunity to review this smart home appliance over the course of three weeks before its official sales launch.

Why Atomfall Captivated Me: A Journey Through The Quarantine Zone

Over the weekend, I had the chance to really dive deep into the world of Atomfall. I had the opportunity to look at the game before receiving my key for the full version, so I didn’t expect too many surprises. And yet, somehow, this game still managed to capture my attention in a whole new way. The most interesting part about this? Something that I didn’t particularly like when I first played the game ended up being one of the best parts about it.

Samsung Galaxy A56, A36 & A26 Compared: S-light Flagship Vibes

In early March, Samsung refreshed its Galaxy A series with a trio of new smartphones: the Galaxy A56, Galaxy A36, and Galaxy A26. At first glance, they might look confusingly similar, but they span a wide range of price points, likely topping out at just over $500. As of today, two of these devices are available in the U.S. Beyond pricing, there are also major differences in what each phone offers under the hood. You can read all about those differences in detail here.
