A quick unboxing and look at the brand new @Apple Apple iPhone 18 Pro Max.
Unboxing the HUAWEI Pura 90s Pro in Cape Town. HUAWEI's newest Pro flagship has landed in South Africa, and Technobok took it straight out of the box and into the Mother City for a first look. Cape Town made the perfect testing ground. With Table Mountain standing tall behind us and the Atlantic glittering along the coast, we put the Pura 90s Pro to work in the kind of light and scenery that separates a good phone camera from a great one. And this camera is special. The 50MP main sensor has a variable aperture that shifts from f/1.4 to f/4.0, so it can soak up light at golden hour or keep every ridge of the mountain sharp at midday. It's joined by a 12.5MP ultrawide and a 50MP macro telephoto with 4x optical zoom, letting you frame everything from sweeping coastal views to close-ups of fynbos. Video tops out at 4K on both the front and rear cameras. A 6.6-inch LTPO OLED display adapts from 1 to 120Hz for smooth scrolling and efficient battery use. Inside is HUAWEI's Kirin 9030S chipset with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. A 6,000mAh battery keeps you going all day, with 66W wired and 50W wireless charging when you need a top up. It's IP68 and IP69 rated, so sea spray or a sudden Cape Town downpour is no concern, and it supports 5G, Wi-Fi 7 and Bluetooth 6.0. What really sets the Pura 90s Pro apart is the price. At R19,999, it delivers a pro-grade camera, flagship performance and a premium build for thousands less than many rival Pro flagships. Available in Mulberry Black, Coconut White and Orange Soda, the HUAWEI Pura 90s Pro is one of the smartest flagship buys of 2026.

Is this the ultimate flagship of 2026? 🏆 In today’s video, we’re diving deep into the Vivo X300 Pro. A device that isn’t just a smartphone, but a professional-grade camera in your pocket. From the mind-blowing 200MP Zeiss APO Telephoto lens to the raw power of the 3nm Dimensity 9500 chipset, Vivo has officially raised the bar for what a "Pro" phone should be! There are moments when technology ceases to be a tool and becomes a witness. High above the jagged crown of Table Mountain, suspended in the thrumming heart of a helicopter, the Vivo X300 Pro did not just take photos; it inhaled the horizon. 🔥 KEY SPECIFICATIONS: Processor: MediaTek Dimensity 9500 (Octa-core 4.21 GHz) Display: 6.78” 1.5K+ AMOLED (1-120Hz LTPO, 4500 nits peak brightness) Main Camera: 50MP Sony LYT-828 (OIS, f/1.57) Telephoto: 200MP Samsung HPB Zeiss APO (3.7x Optical Zoom, up to 100x Digital) Battery: 6510mAh with 90W FlashCharge & 40W Wireless OS: OriginOS 6 (based on Android 16) Durability: IP68 & IP69 Water/Dust Resistance The Ascent: Steel, Wind, and Zeiss As the Atlantic Seaboard blurred into a tapestry of turquoise and granite, the Zeiss APO Floating Telephoto lens extended like a silent predator. Through the open door of the chopper, the wind fought to steal the frame, but the X300 Pro remained defiant. Its stabilisation. A mechanical heartbeat—smoothed the chaos of the rotors, turning a violent aerial dance into a cinematic masterpiece. To look through this glass is to see the world stripped of its distance. The Twelve Apostles weren’t just mountains in a viewfinder; they were ancient textures of fynbos and stone, pulled so close you could almost feel the cold Atlantic mist clinging to the rock. This is the power of apochromatic correction, a world without blur, a reality without compromise. The Watcher: Life in the Lens On the ground, the narrative shifted from the infinite to the intimate. In the quiet thickets of the Cape, we turned the lens toward the vibration of life itself. Bird-watching is an exercise in patience, but with the X300 Pro, it became an act of discovery. The 1-inch sensor drank in the dappled sunlight of the forest floor, while the telephoto macro capability allowed us to invade the private world of a Sunbird without shattering the silence. We saw the impossible: the iridescent pulse of feathers, the microscopic glint in a wild eye, and a natural bokeh so creamy and deep it felt like looking through a dream. The V3 Soul: Silicon Magic Beneath the elegant chassis beats the V3 Imaging Chip, a silent conductor orchestrating billions of calculations per second. It is the ghost in the machine that ensures the "Zeiss Natural Colour" remains honest, never painting over the truth, but enhancing the soul of the scene. It handled the harsh South African sun and the deep shadows of the ravines with equal grace, proving that the crown of mobile photography has moved. The Verdict: Beyond the Frame The Vivo X300 Pro is a defiance of physics. It is the realisation that a device in your pocket can hold the majesty of a Cape Town sunset and the delicate frailty of a bird’s wing with equal reverence. It is more than a flagship. It is a portal. It is the new king of the light, and it has claimed its throne at the intersection of glass and gold. Technobok Finale: A Masterpiece in Every Photon.

The South African bakkie market is notoriously difficult to penetrate, dominated by legacy brands and fierce loyalty. However, following a successful brand re-launch by the Salvador Caetano Group, JMC South Africa is making a definitive statement with the arrival of the All-New JMC Vigus. Embodying the philosophy of being “Built for More,” this isn’t just a facelift—it’s a complete reimagining of what a value-driven workhorse can offer. A "Mecha" Presence on the Tarmac First impressions count, and the Vigus commands it. The design team has opted for a "mecha-inspired" front face that gives it a futuristic, aggressive stance. Measuring 5335mm in length and 1834mm in height, it has the "big-body" presence South Africans love. But it’s not all for show. JMC has prioritized loading efficiency: Cargo Capacity: It boasts one of the best-in-class cargo beds. Ergonomic Loading: A 750mm low bed height improves loading efficiency by 15%. Accessibility: Rear doors that open to 75° make loading large items surprisingly effortless. "Fortress-Level" Engineering Under the skin, the Vigus is built to take a beating. JMC engineers refer to the chassis as "fortress-level," and the specs back it up. Crafted from 420-grade steel with a bending stiffness of 1150 N/mm, the stability is palpable even before you hit the dirt. Crucially for our coastal and high-altitude regions, JMC has utilised 100% galvanised steel for all outer panels. Having survived a reinforced 60-day corrosion resistance test, this bakkie is clearly built to withstand the unique challenges of the South African climate. Interior: The "Lear" Luxury Surprise Step inside, and the "workhorse" label starts to fade. The cabin is an exercise in refinement. The highlight is undoubtedly the ergonomic seating from Lear, a world-renowned brand, providing long-distance support that rivals premium SUVs. The tech suite is equally impressive: The Hub: A massive 12.8” touchscreen featuring wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Instrumentation: A 9” floating digital cluster that provides crisp, modern data delivery. Passenger Comfort: Rear occupants get 822mm of row spacing and a nearly flat floor (17mm hump), making it a legitimate family-capable double cab. Power and Validation Performance is delivered via a 2.5L Turbo Diesel engine pushing out 123 kW and 430 Nm of torque (in the A/T models). The low-rpm, high-torque characteristic is exactly what you want for heavy-load climbing. Perhaps most impressive is the validation: JMC has put the Vigus through 4 million kilometres of intensive testing. That is the equivalent of circling the Earth 100 times, providing peace of mind that this bakkie won't quit when the going gets tough. The Value Play: Pricing and Lineup With a growing network aimed at 40 active dealers by 2026, JMC is backing their product with serious infrastructure. The pricing is where the Vigus becomes a true disruptor: SA Pricing & Warranty JMC Vigus 2.5TD DC 4×2 6MT R399 900 JMC Vigus 2.5TD DC 4×2 8AT R459 900 JMC Vigus 2.5TD DC 4×4 8AT R499 900 The prices above include a 5-year/200 000 km warranty and a 4-year/65 000 km service plan. To Conclude The All-New JMC Vigus proves that "rugged" and "refined" are no longer mutually exclusive terms for the budget-conscious buyer. By offering a 4x4 Automatic with a Rear Diff Lock and flagship-level tech for under R500,000, JMC isn't just joining the segment—they are challenging the status quo. If you are looking for a vehicle that is genuinely "Built for More" without the traditional premium price tag, the Vigus deserves a spot on your shortlist.
In the modern smartphone landscape, the "Zeiss" logo has typically been a gated luxury reserved for the expensive flagship elite. With the Vivo V70, that gate has officially been kicked open. By combining their legendary Zeiss partnership with a strategically priced mid-tier chassis, Vivo is offering a "pro-grade" imaging experience to a far wider audience. The Optical Core: Zeiss T* Coating in the Mid-Range The standout feature of the V70 is the Zeiss T coating* on the lens elements. In our technical testing, this proved to be more than just a branding exercise. The coating significantly reduces ghosting and lens flare issues that typically plague mid-range sensors when shooting against harsh South African sunlight or bright city streetlights at night. Key Camera Specs: Main Sensor: High-resolution module with OIS (Optical Image Stabilisation). Zeiss Portrait Styles: Includes the iconic Biotar, Distagon, Planar, and Sonnar swirly bokeh effects. Imaging Engine: Optimised for natural colour reproduction rather than over-processed saturation. Performance: The "Goldilocks" Balance To achieve its aggressive price point, the V70 doesn't try to be a gaming powerhouse; instead, it focuses on sustained, efficient performance. Chipset Efficiency, the internal hardware handles 4K video recording and heavy AI image processing without the thermal throttling we often see in "over-clocked" mid-rangers. Display: A vibrant AMOLED panel with a 120Hz refresh rate, ensuring that the high-fidelity photos you capture look as sharp on the screen as they do on a professional monitor. Battery & Charging: Equipped with Vivo’s FlashCharge technology, the V70 juices up fast enough to ensure you’re never tethered to a wall when the perfect golden hour shot presents itself. The Technobok Camera Test We took the V70 into the field to see if the Zeiss partnership holds up under pressure. Low Light: The "Super Night Mode" combined with Zeiss optics delivers remarkably clean shadows. The noise floor is impressively low for a non-flagship sensor. Portraits: This is where the V70 punches well above its weight. The edge detection is surgical, and the Zeiss-tuned background blur looks "organic" rather than "calculated." Video: The OIS (Optical Image Stabilisation) provides a level of "float" to handheld walking shots that usually requires a dedicated gimbal. The Value Proposition The Vivo V70 represents a shift in market strategy. It asks the question: Do you really need to pay double for a flagship if 90% of your usage is photography? For most users, the answer is a resounding "No." You are getting the "Blue Label" lens experience—the sharpness, the color science, and the prestige—without the flagship "tax." Our verdict The Vivo V70 is a specialised tool. It is designed for the aspiring content creator, the Instagram enthusiast, and the traveler who wants professional-looking memories without the professional-looking price tag. It is, quite simply, the best "optical value" on the market right now.
