Creative’s Sound Blaster AE-X hides a gaming and audiophile DAC inside your PC — but why?
The Sound Blaster AE-X puts an audiophile-leaning gaming DAC inside a Windows PC. Its appeal is one less box plus less clutter, but Creative’s cheaper external G8 offers more controls and flexibility.
The Xiaomi 17T starts from SGD 799 and keeps the same 50MP Leica 5x telephoto camera as the Pro, making the regular model the surprise bargain of the series.
Razer’s 2026 Blade 18 is not just leaning on AI language — its stronger pitch is a polished 18-inch desktop replacement with RTX 5090 laptop power, 24GB VRAM and a dual-mode display.

Canon’s EOS R6 V brings 7K Open Gate recording, active cooling and a new RF20-50mm power zoom lens to Singapore, making the R6 formula more convincingly video-first — if you can live with the trade-off.
Samsung’s 2026 display launch is broad, but the useful story is simpler: AI TVs, premium display tech, lifestyle screens, modular audio and more specialised monitors.
