Hi all. I currently have an awful internet connection (c. 1.5mb dl speed) but OpenReach are upgrading my cabinet later this year, which I anticipate will increase speed significantly up to c.30-50mb dl speed. I have a couple of questions and wondering if anyone can help answer them: 1. Upon...

Hi all. Next year I'm going to get the new Xbox Scorpio and was planning to buy a new 4K TV alongside it. But, many people say gaming monitors are the way to go. But the main benefit of Scorpio is it's 4K capabilities - so only really worth it with a 4K display output. My questions are: - do...

I've just switched to a sim only contract with EE and currently have a 16bg iPhone 6, which is kind of OK except the screen is a bit messed up (not cracked but pixelated over part of the screen) If I sell it, is the iPhone SE worth considering or should I wait for the next iPhone? The iPhone 7...

Despite detailing for years, I've never found a product which quickly and effectivelly removes tree sap without having to use a paint cleanser, which then requires reapplication of a wax. If you get in quickly, a wash and some QD can work - but often in the sun, some gets baked on and won't...

I've just moved into a new house, and although the connection from the box to my house is good, from the exchange to the box is awful as the cables haven't been upgraded. As a result, the fastest connection I can get via BT is about 1mb! I've met my MP about this and hopefully BT upgrade in the...

I've been reading how to do this online and the settings people advise changing seem different to the ones I have available. I go into settings > Facebook . settings but under video the only option is 'Upload HD'. Can anyone help as the videos playing automatically is sucking up a lot of my...

Right, I am off to Iceland in February with my gf for a few nights away - a fantastic present which she just got me for my 30th birthday. However, she has tasked me with taking some good photos of the northern lights. I have a D5200 with an 18-105mm lens but not got a tripod as it stands -...

I've added my Gmail account and says if I go into Contacts all my contacts should start syncing...however, nothing seems to be happening. How do I get all of this transferred over? Always happens instantly on Android, I thought Apple was meant to make life easier?!

I just got a new iPhone but struggling to put the sim in. I've tried a paper clip to pop it open but no joy. Any other ideas, how have others done this??

Bit of a stab in the dark here but having issues as of today with my HTC. Specifically calls - it will ring if there's an incoming call but can't hear the caller. If I dial out it seems to dial but I don't hear any dial tone and then if it connects I can't hear the receiver. Internet seems to be...

I am considering making the great leap to iOS, simply because I've never had an iPhone and feels like I should at some point. For those who have moved from Android to iOS, what has the experience been like? Any major pros/cons? How hard was the process?

I've recently got myself a nice new Sony 55" TV - running some old but good Sony floorstanding speakers with it and a Sony STRDN 1070 amp (a beast!) which is 7.1 capable. I want to get a good center speaker and potentially a subwoofer too - ideally Sony but not sure if they even sell centers...

So currently with our BT broadband we're getting less than 1mb dl speeds - mainly due to the distance from the exchange. Sky recommended trying a new faceplate - but can I just buy one via Amazon or eBay and install one myself, or is it tricky? Also, any other things I could try to boost...

I just got my One setup, with Destiny. My new broadband is absymally slow, but think it's now installed. It then said it needed to update, but then the update doesn't appear in the queue. When I click on the game tile to start, it makes a noise but nothing happens (apart from like a black border...

Hi guys. Moving into my new pad with my mrs and looking for the best value 4K TV and sound system. I like this X series Sony model with the HTCT770 wireless soundbar and sub-woofer package, although I know probably paying a premium for it being a Sony. I have done loads of looking about and...

Anyone getting one of these? And does anyone know the confirmed release date - hoping it will be sometime in the next couple of weeks but nothing concrete so far. Looks like it will be a pretty tasty device.

So with the promise of shiny next gen consoles upon us, it is perhaps surprising that my favourite game of the year is an expansion to a 2012 turn based squad based strategy game? Well...it is! I already owned Enemy Unknown and this is basically a remix of that game, but with all the DLC and...

Just catching up on 5th Gear with the hot hatch shoot out and the new 200 did TERRIBLY! Very disappointing such a great line of cars has become this electronic, fussy mess of a car.

Do we still get a discount on Clean Your Car does anyone know, and if so what is the code? Not ordered from there in ages!

I've been getting a LOT of pop-up adverts (like literally every time I visit a new page) when going on the internet - which usually appear at the bottom of the screen. Not sure if it's a virus or some sort of ad program but my virus protection isn't picking it up. What would people recommend to...

As the embers for this generation slowly burn out, it seems amazing (or annoying, I can't decide which) that there are so many good games coming out still for the 360 and PS3. Top of the list for me are the new X-Com expansion, GTA 5 (I think, still don't know if I have the time to commit to...

This is an issue my gfs mum is having and trying to help her out - think it's a Mac issue rather than internet software (although I could be wrong). Essentially on her businesses' website there are JPEG images of the products she offers. All the files are (Im told) the same size and JPEG...

I've been reading and watching a lot about this game and it looks amazing so far - can't wait to have a go. It seems to have taken the best bits of COD and put it into a new setting and added a very cool couple of twists (giant robots and parkour style movements). Seems to be a One exclusive at...

I'm selling my old S2 and not sure the best way to remove all apps, passwords, personal details, accounts etc quickly and cleanly. What's the best way to do this?! ​Cheers.

Anyone played this game? Sounded quite cool - a mix between Dark Souls and Monster Hunter. Got some pretty good reviews and bit different to usual RPGs, with more focus on combat and open world exploration. Just wanted to see if anyone else has any experience with it and how they got on?

Anyone got it or played it? IT's basically Minecraft mixed with a SNES side scrolling RPG. Got some great reviews but not sue if it's for me... Any opinions?

Hi all My upgrade is due in the next 3 months so started thinking about what to go for - potentially willing to hold on for longer if something special is on the way. I've currently got a Samsung S2 and was going to go for an S4 which I believe is due out Q2 or Q3 this year? But otherwise what...

Does anywhere know where I can buy an Xbox live subscription from and will send me the code straight away? Just got back from holiday and want to play today! There used to be loads on eBay but can't find any today? Unless anyone has a 48 hour code they would be kind enough to give me and I'll...

Hi I've gone from having Sky broadband and phone (both worked great) to getting Sky TV installed TV. The TV works fine, but the engineer put an extra splitter on my phone line for my Sky+ box and now the wi fi connection to my PC isn't working. PLEASE HELP - as I need the internet to work from...

Great idea...although can't seem to get it to sync properly! It's done some docs buts not all my photos...although capacity wise it says I've used 4.5gb so must be full of something, I can't see them when I go onto the site. Anyone else had issues with it working properly?
