About: Mark's first review for Stuff was the Nokia N-Gage in 2004. Luckily, his career lasted a little longer than the taco phone, and he's been trying to figure out how gadgets fit back into their boxes ever since. While his 'Extreme Mark Wilson' persona was retired following a Microsoft skydiving incident, this means he can often be spotted in the wilds of South West London testing action cams, drones and smartwatches, and occasionally cursing at them.
Areas of expertise: Smart home tech, cameras, wearables and obscure gadgets from the early 2000s.

Test 2 reviews

Introduction It wasn’t too far back into PC gaming history that “integrated graphics” was considered a curse word. An Asus ROG device without a dedicated GPU would’ve been unthinkable. Madness, even.
