The week in review: the GTA VI trailer takes the world by storm

GTA VI finally dropped its first trailer. The Apple Watch Series 9 doesn’t really convince Michelle. In turn, Luca is all the more enthusiastic about Wonka. All that and more kept the digital editorial team busy this week.

It’s been a great week for all GTA fans. After years of waiting, the first trailer for GTA VI is finally here. And earlier than expected. The one-and-a-half-minute clip was leaked, prompting Rockstar Games to officially post it in the middle of the night. In less than four days, it’s achieved over 120 million views on YouTube. My colleagues Domi and Phil took a closer look at the upcoming blockbuster this week. But you’ll have to wait until 2025 for the whole thing.

One thing that’s already out is the «perfect Christmas movie». The origin story of dreamer Willy Wonka (Timothée Chalamet) enchanted Luca. One of his highlights is Hugh Grant as an Oompa-Loompa.

While not enchanted, Lorenz was certainly illuminated by two screen bars from Elesense. The relatively inexpensive gadgets for better lighting in your home office only fail to convince him when it comes to the controls.

Michelle isn’t at all convinced by the battery life of the Apple Watch Series 9, which is why she barely even wears the smartwatch. Too bad, she thinks, the device is pretty good otherwise.

I was also only partially convinced by my two test devices this week. The Logitech G Pro X Superlight 2 is good, but doesn’t dare to try anything new. And the Samsung T5 Evo offers a lot of memory, but is slow as a snail.

Jan on the other hand, when testing the new Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, found that older system-on-a-chips already deliver sufficient performance in everyday use. Nevertheless, this progress is needed.

Last but not least, the Editorial Team also has some helpful Windows tips for you. Florian explains how to use your clipboard history, and I show you how to check your PC’s processor.
