A Tech Affair episode 163: Our epic Gamescom trade fair report
by Philipp Rüegg
This week offered a colourful bouquet of tests. Apart from that, it is all about video games - not least because we are on site at Gamescom.
Gamescom - the largest trade fair for computer and video games - is still taking place until Sunday. It goes without saying that our gaming editors Domagoj and Philipp won't be missing out on this spectacle and will be reporting on site. Our podcast gives you a good overview of what's happening in the big halls of Cologne.
In addition to future games, current games are also close to our hearts. For example, "Baldur's Gate 3", which it feels like half the editorial team is playing. Philipp wrote down why the game is so exciting before he left for Germany.
Aside from games, it's also indirectly about games. After all, we like to game on the big screen when we're not streaming series like "Ahsoka". Luca has therefore taken the best Samsung TV to date to task. The graphics tablet that our artist Michelle tested has a slightly smaller format. However, the smallest display was tested by Lorenz; that of the Huawei Watch 4 Pro, which triggered a rollercoaster of emotions in him.
Of course, we don't just test products that display images. We also include products for recording. Such as Samuel's test of the DJI Air 3, which turned out a bit fat.
It is also bold that there are now ready-made keyboards with custom keyboard features. However, our colleague Kevin assumes that these will remain an exception. He explains why in his background article.
This week's Windows tip is all about pressing keys - more precisely, "Windows+X" or the right mouse button. Are you already using the second, hidden Start menu?
Have you understood everything? Good, then it's best to press the combination of keys with which you can shut down Windows in seconds ... and enjoy the weekend.
Or take a look at the magazine overview to see all the articles we have published. There you will also find the real highlight of the week. And I'm not talking about my insider tip; the Guide to "digital inheritance" in the event of death from the pen of Florian. The biggest thing this week was the vivid joy of Indians at their nation landing on the moon in its second attempt.
Wow, congratulations!
