Even though I technically started playing my very first video games on PC back when my entire gaming world was whatever math games or movie tie-in games could run on the one computer we had in my parents' house, I came to be a real PC gamer much later in life.

MWC is in full swing, and a wave of new mobile devices is announced. Lenovo is no different, as it has turned up full force with a slew of gadgets for those who like to work on the go. This year, it's showing off new ThinkPads and ThinkBooks, both for people who want something flashy and someone who wants to keep things simple.

Adobe's All Apps subscription sounds like a dream for creatives — access to Photoshop, Premiere Pro, Illustrator, After Effects, and more in one bundle. But do you really need all of these programs?

The ThinkPad has been the gold standard for enterprise laptops since its days at IBM and has continued to set the bar for workplace machines since the brand's acquisition by Lenovo in 2005. Today, there are a lot of powerhouse models to choose from, including the latest X1 Carbon Gen 13, the T14s Gen 6, and the still fantastic T14 Gen 5. While the X1 Carbon is undoubtedly a sleek and powerful option, there are a few reasons you might still be better off with a T14 model.

Nvidia has had a real time trying to keep its RTX 50 release going smoothly. The issues began when people began reporting that updating the drivers caused a nasty black screen issue that sometimes didn't fix itself. This was then compounded with another issue where some GPUs were missing the correct amount of ROPs, albeit it was a rare occurrence. Nvidia pushed out a patch to help fix the former issue, but it seems that the update has only made the problem worse for some.

When your NAS is drowning in dust, both inside and out, it can lead to various problems, from overheating to component damage. In extreme cases, excessive heat can cause drive failures, resulting in data loss, while even moderate dust buildup may lead to slow performance as the NAS’s hardware struggles to keep up. You can easily avoid long-term hardware damage — and, in turn, protect your data — by cleaning your NAS regularly to ensure it runs at optimal performance levels.

A common trend across all types of art, video games included, is that creating something where you need to navigate strict limitations can often lead to more creative and better solutions. Often, those limitations don't come from something an artist or creator imposed on themselves. It usually comes down to not having the time, the money, or, in the case of video games, the technology, to truly bring someone's vision to life.

It just wouldn't be a tech show without some concepts from Lenovo. For MWC, there are three, and they're all pretty cool in their own right. Specifically, the company's got the Yoga Solar PC, ThinkBook Flip, and a new Dual Display attachment for ThinkBooks.

There are several ways to repurpose old hard drives in your computing setup, whether it’s using them to expand your game storage or leveraging them in a DIY NAS. But if you don’t want to go around opening up PCs or tinkering with NAS-tier operating systems, a makeshift external drive is a great way to get more use out of your spare drives.

Lenovo has a habit of bringing some of the coolest gadgets, concepts, and innovations to every tech event it attends. For instance, the company left many speechless with its ThinkBook Transparent Display Laptop concept at MWC 2024. Now, Lenovo is back at MWC 2025, taking the stage with its latest lineup of devices, including new Yoga and IdeaPad laptops.

File Explorer in Windows 11 has many issues, but the good thing is that Microsoft has improved it since its launch by adding useful features like tab support. Despite all the improvements, File Explorer is nowhere close to perfect, as it still lacks useful features that you'll find on its macOS equivalent, the Finder. And then, there are features in File Explorer that serve no purpose, and to many people, they do more harm than good.

Microsoft’s relentless push to utilize OneDrive feels less like convenience and more like a forced integration on Windows. Coupled with slow download and upload speeds, as well as privacy concerns, I knew it was time to break free from Microsoft’s cloud storage solution. While there is no shortage of OneDrive alternatives, Proton Drive caught my attention for several reasons.
