Marshall Emberton III Bluetooth speaker review: a small speaker with stacks of personality

Nevertheless, it’s a good all-rounder with great battery life. The main selling point here is a feature we weren’t able to test: Auracast via Bluetooth LE.

Nvidia’s DLSS is an obvious choice over AMD’s FSR, but this shouldn’t dictate your GPU buying decisions

When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission.Heres how it works. It goes without saying thatNvidiais the dominant force within the GPU market. However, this should by no means be the only factor when deciding which GPU you should buy. The RTX 4090 is an absolute beast of a GPU, but it’s not the one I’d personally pick (yes, because it’s insanely expensive).

These cost $19.99 / 23.99 / AU$49.99 each. It’s also not clear how to hardwire the doorbell if you do not have an existing doorbell circuit.

Since this is the same material, I have my concerns about this model’s durability as well....
