Our sibling publication, the Daily Express, also put NordVPN to the test - and it ranks as one of the top VPNs they've evaluated. Expert reviewer Aaron noted: "NordVPN is astonishingly good. For VPN novices, NordVPN's attractive apps offer a non-intimidating way to familiarise oneself with a Virtual Private Network, while experts will be able to unlock the true potential of excellent features like Double VPN, VPN Kill Switch, and MeshNet.

"Connections with NordVPN are rock-solid, with no dropouts or timeouts during the months that we've relied on this exceptional VPN to keep our personal data hidden from prying eyes, hackers, and advertisers."
However, he did note that Nord had an effect on download speeds but nothing drastically noticeable. He continued: "Sure, NordVPN has a more significant impact on download speeds than ExpressVPN, which we'd still recommend as the best VPN for streaming. But in normal usage, NordVPN still offers a good internet speed - even when connected to a server location on the other side of the planet."

Exclusive: SK Hynix expects AI memory market to grow 30% a year to 2030
SEOUL/SAN FRANCISCO, Aug 11 (Reuters) - South Korea's SK Hynix ( opens new tab forecasts that the market for a specialized form of memory chip designed for artificial intelligence will grow 30% a year until 2030, a senior executive said in an interview with Reuters. The upbeat projection for global growth in high-bandwidth memory (HBM) for use in AI brushes off concern over rising price pressures in a sector that for decades has been treated like commodities such as oil or coal. "AI demand from the end user is pretty much, very firm and strong," said SK Hynix's Choi Joon-yong, the head of HBM business planning at SK Hynix. The billions of dollars in AI capital spending that cloud computing companies such as Amazon (AMZN.O), opens new tab, Microsoft (MSFT.O), opens new tab and Alphabet's (GOOGL.O), opens new tab Google are projecting will likely be revised upwards in the future, which would be "positive" for the HBM market, Choi said. The relationship between AI build-outs and HBM purchases is "very straightforward" and there is a correlation between the two, Choi said. SK Hynix's projections are conservative and include constraints such as available energy, he said. But the memory business is undergoing a significant strategic change during this period as well. HBM - a type of dynamic random access memory or DRAM standard first produced in 2013 - involves stacking chips vertically to save space and reduce power consumption, helping to process the large volumes of data generated by complex AI applications. SK Hynix expects this market for custom HBM to grow to tens of billions of dollars by 2030, Choi said. Due to technological changes in the way SK Hynix and rivals such as Micron Technology (MU.O), opens new tab and Samsung Electronics ( opens new tab build next-generation HBM4, their products include a customer-specific logic die, or "base die", that helps manage the memory. That means it is no longer possible to easily replace a rival's memory product with a nearly identical chip or product. Part of SK Hynix's optimism for future HBM market growth includes the likelihood that customers will want even further customisation than what SK Hynix already does, Choi said. At the moment it is mostly larger customers such as Nvidia (NVDA.O), opens new tab that receive individual customisation, while smaller clients get a traditional one-size-fits-all approach. "Each customer has different taste," Choi said, adding that some want specific performance or power characteristics. SK Hynix is currently the main HBM supplier to Nvidia, although Samsung and Micron (MU.O), opens new tab supply it with smaller volumes. Last week, Samsung cautioned during its earnings conference call that current generation HBM3E supply would likely outpace demand growth in the near term, a shift that could weigh on prices. "We are confident to provide, to make the right competitive product to the customers," Choi said. U.S. President Donald Trump on Wednesday said the United States would impose a tariff of about 100% on semiconductor chips imported from countries not producing in America or planning to do so. Choi declined to comment on the tariffs. Trump told reporters in the Oval Office the new tariff rate would apply to "all chips and semiconductors coming into the United States," but would not apply to companies that were already manufacturing in the United States or had made a commitment to do so. Trump's comments were not a formal tariff announcement, and the president offered no further specifics. South Korea's top trade envoy Yeo Han-koo said on Thursday that Samsung Electronics and SK Hynix would not be subject to the 100% tariffs on chips if they were implemented. Samsung has invested in two chip fabrication plants in Austin and Taylor, Texas, and SK Hynix has announced plans to build an advanced chip packaging plant and an artificial intelligence research and development facility in Indiana. South Korea's chip exports to the United States were valued at $10.7 billion last year, accounting for 7.5% of its total chip exports. Some HBM chips are exported to Taiwan for packaging, accounting for 18% of South Korea's chip exports in 2024, a 127% increase from the previous year.

Small boat migrants given taxpayer-funded days out including dinghy trips & £1 Prem tickets as farcical perks exposed
Other perks given to migrants include half-price discounts on e-bikes — when Army veterans only get a fifth off TAKEN FOR A RIDE Small boat migrants given taxpayer-funded days out including dinghy trips & £1 Prem tickets as farcical perks exposed Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A HOST of generous perks are being offered to small-boat arrivals — including discounts on martial arts classes and dinghy days out plus £1 Aston Villa match tickets for kids. They are among dozens of farcical asylum deals uncovered in a Sun investigation. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 4 Motorised dinghies can be hired at Rother Valley country park in South Yorkshire Credit: Alamy 4 A host of generous perks are being offered to small-boat arrivals Credit: PA Others include half-price on e-bikes — when Army veterans and pensioners only get a fifth off. Among those dishing out deals is Labour-run Rotherham Council — which gives asylum seekers access to the Rothercard, aimed at helping low-earning families with bills. Around 500 in asylum accommodation in the South Yorkshire town are believed to be eligible. At Rother Valley Country Park's three lakes they get a 30 per cent discount, slashing the cost of a 90-minute double-handed dinghy or sailing boat rental from £20.70 to £14.80. A single-handed dinghy is £12.70, a third down from £16.40. The park also offers discounted watersports including windsurfing. The authority, where one in six live in poverty, raised council tax by three per cent this year. Shadow Home Secretary Chris Philp said: 'It's shocking that yet another Labour Council has been offering illegal immigrants freebies – this time offering discounts for water sports and boat hires. 'You could not make it up. Hard-working Brits are subsidising perks for illegal immigrants crossing the Channel, while at the same time seeing local services cut. 'This has got to stop. The British people have had enough. Loophole in PM's swap plan means the more bogus an asylum seeker is, the less chance we have of kicking them out 'Families are struggling to make ends meet and being slapped by huge Labour tax rises, all to pay for handouts to illegal immigrants who have flouted our border laws and never paid a penny in tax.' Meanwhile Birmingham City Council offers £1 kids' tickets to Aston Villa with a paying adult. It subsidises swimming, martial arts plus courses on trampolining, golf, gymnastics and football. And in Calderdale, West Yorks, migrants are offered £15 off a massage and discounted tickets at Bradford's IMAX cinema. Those living in publicly-funded accommodation can also use the Passport to Leisure card to get weekend yoga sessions and £1 off theatre tickets. Also available is physiotherapy in Halifax, with the card scheme's page saying migrants get £15 off an initial assessment, then a 'further £5 saving for each treatment and one-hour massage'. 4 Chris Philp said: 'It's shocking that yet another Labour Council has been offering illegal immigrants freebies' Credit: PA Ex-Tory minister Sir Alec Shelbrooke said: 'I'm shocked and appalled at the blatant waste of hard-pushed taxpayers' money when councils are declaring poverty. 'This blatant waste will appal families who, quite frankly, cannot afford to take these perks even with a discount. 'While everyone else has their benefits cut, asylum seekers are being pampered with perks at taxpayers' expense.' Nationwide, we can reveal an e-scooter firm offers boat migrants a 50 per cent discount — while only giving Army veterans, NHS nurses and firefighters a fifth off. Voi scooters, which operates in cities including London and Bristol, gave migrants half-price access to passes under an 'equitable access' scheme. Users can apply online and if accepted pay as little as £7 a week. At least one asylum hotel resident this year has been charged with dangerously driving an e-scooter. Tory MP Sir John Hayes said: 'If they are going to offer a discount scheme, surely UK veterans and pensioners should come first? 'I know what my priority would be — people who served this country and worked hard for this country all their lives.' Swedish firm Voi has had over 21million rides on its 1,400 scooters since launching here in 2020. The company claims to have replaced nine million car journeys with eco-friendly electric options. Yet Voi does not offer the same 50 per cent deal to asylum seekers in France and Belgium, where thousands wait to cross to soft-touch Britain. 4 Perks include discounts on martial arts classes and dinghy days out plus £1 Aston Villa match tickets for kids Credit: Getty In the capital, Richmond council gives asylum seekers free swimming and cheaper Spanish or French lessons via a discount card. Nearby Kingston Council has 50 per cent off leisure activities. And Wandsworth Council, South London, has 50 per cent off e-bikes plus half-price weddings and civil partnership ceremonies at its town hall. Our probe comes a month after French President Emmanuel Macron slammed PM Sir Keir Starmer for the migrant crisis. He warned the UK must address 'pull factors' including freebies, luxury accommodation and easy access to black market work on Just Eat or Deliveroo. The Home Office operates around 210 migrant hotels at a cost of more than £3billion a year. The Government has pledged to close them all by 2029 — but has opened new hotels this year. Rotherham Borough Council said: 'The Rothercard scheme offers support to all residents on low incomes. We would not generally expect asylum seekers to be accessing sports facilities like Rother Valley Country Park. 'Rothercard also helps with the costs of services like pest control and waste disposal, which we would want to ensure were available to everyone who lives here.' Danielle Durrans, at Calderdale Council, said: 'The Passport to Leisure scheme offers discounted access to sport, cultural and leisure facilities.' She said some discounts were offered by private firms. Voi was invited to comment.

Ninja Crispi 'transformed my meals' and now the cheapest ever price - only with this code
Ninja Crispi 'transformed my meals' and now the cheapest ever price - only with this code The Ninja CRISPi 4-in-1 Portable Glass air aryer has a large 1.8L capacity, making it ideal for cooking multiple items at once Ninja has cut the price of all its products (Image: Amazon) They're the staple kitchen gadget, airfryers, plenty of households across the UK will rely on these simple worktop gadgets to cook their meals, all be it for a big family or diner for one. Popular for cutting time and money, one of Ninja's newest models is now the cheapest ever price. Worlds away from the brand's dual airfryer basket appliances, the Ninja Crispi is portable, compact, and everything is cooked in a glass container - which can then be used to store food in afterwards. Usually £179.99 there's now a much cheaper price being offered for shoppers. As part of Ninja's 20% off everything sale, the nifty air fryer has dropped to £149.99, one of the cheapest prices since it launched earlier this year. Only if shoppers use the code Ninja20 at the checkout. But is it worth buying? Writer Eve Rowlands has previously tried it out and says the appliance has left her 'enjoying cooking more'. Ditching her Philips Airfryer for the latest Ninja model, Eve swapped to the Crispi model which she says is more 'user-friendly and compact'. As she explains in her review below. Not only was it more powerful than my previous model, but it also looked sleeker. The Ninja CRISPi 4-in-1 Portable Glass Air Fryer, launched earlier this year, and is incredibly user-friendly. Comprising CleanCrisp thermal-shock resistant glass containers (in which the food is cooked - there are two sizes) and a heating lid, it also includes Non-Stick Crisper Plates, 2 Storage Lids and a PowerPod Adaptor. But that's not all that's impressive about it. The Ninja CRISPi, as its full name suggests, has four different functions, all of which can be performed in the glass base: airfrying, roasting, recrisping and keeping food warm (once cooked). Naturally, the function I've used most is air frying. Ninja 20% off everything sale £179.99 £ 149.99 Ninja Kitchen UK Buy Here Product Description The Ninja CRISPi 4-in-1 Portable Glass Air Fryer Cooking is significantly quicker than with my previous air fryer, which is a definite plus. Although I'm still experimenting with recipes, it has a larger capacity than our old model and has made cooking more enjoyable (mainly because it doesn't take forever). I can place vegetables at the bottom and fish on top (on the crisper tray), and they'll cook perfectly in about 15-20 minutes. This is ideal when you're short on time... or if, like me, you're not particularly fond of spending ages in the kitchen. As there are only two of us in my household, I haven't used it to cook for larger groups. However, the device claims to accommodate a 1.2KG chicken and vegetables for up to six people, which could come in handy. That said, some users have reported less success when trying to prepare full meals for 4-6 people using the gadget, so bear that in mind. One person commented: " The only thing that could have been better for us as a family of 4, is making the capacity slightly larger to cook a larger batch." The roasting mode is also incredibly useful, as it uses far less energy than turning on the oven. I've mainly used it to cook one of my favourite complex carbs, sweet potato fries, and am always amazed at how much quicker it is - around 20-25 minutes, depending on the quantity. Cleaning is also a breeze, which is a welcome change from my previous air fryer. The old model had the typical detachable sieve-like tray and base, both requiring cleaning, which was a time-consuming chore - especially as it wasn't dishwasher safe. The Ninja Crispi is sleek, elegant and perfectly compact for small kitchens (Image: Eve Rowlands) However, the Ninja CRISPi has a single glass base, reducing the cleaning task. Plus, it's dishwasher-friendly, which is a significant advantage. I do believe that this machine excels at preparing more substantial meals rather than quick snacks, such as omelettes - something I'd seen people making on social media. After trying it for lunch one day, while the top was wonderfully crispy and delicious, it took over 15 minutes to cook (compared to about seven with my frying pan) and was slightly soggy on the bottom. That's been the only downside of the machine in my opinion. Another potential drawback, according to some, is the price tag of £179.99, which they consider 'quite expensive'. The Ninja CRISPi 4-in-1 Portable Glass Air Fryer is available in three different colours: blue, stone, and sage green. Article continues below Ninja Kitchen's air fryer appears to be the only fully glass air fryer available on the market, as far as I can tell. However, if you're not particularly keen on that aesthetic and would prefer something with an oven-door-style design, the Lakeland Slimline Air Fryer Black is currently priced at £89.99. It boasts seven pre-set cooking programmes and includes a clear-view cooking window for monitoring your food. Similarly, the Instant Vortex is available at Argos for £80.
