Marcus Mears III, now the Computing Reviews and Buying Guides Editor at TechRadar, has been covering tech news, reviews, and how-tos for over five years. He started his publishing journey at MakeUseOf, teaching you how to make the most of your devices and software. Quickly discovering a passion for sharing his opinions on the latest gadgets in the tech world, Marcus took over as Reviews Editor for How-To Geek and Review Geek, allowing him to go hands-on with all sorts of new toys like iPhones, mice, laptops, and more.
If a piece of tech is customizable, you’ll find him tinkering with it. Whether it’s replacing switches and keycaps on a mechanical keyboard or kitting his PC with a new GPU, Marcus loves getting under the hood of the tech we use each and every day. He’s an avid Steam Deck fanatic, meaning you’ll catch him either in a panicked frenzy or triumphant hurrah at the hands of a Soulsborne title.
When it comes to the age-old debate, he prefers Windows PCs but reaches for a MacBook Pro as his daily driver laptop. Marcus is also almost as excited to cook new recipes as he is about technology.
