Sudhanshu Kumar Manglam is a tech journalist at Digital Trends, where he covers smartphones, gaming hardware, AI tools, science, and other consumer technology. His work ranges from breaking news and explainers to hands-on reviews of games, keyboards, peripherals, and other devices, with a focus on how products actually feel and perform in everyday use.

He started his editorial career at Gizmochina, covering product launches, industry news, and consumer hardware. Over more than four years in tech journalism, he has written over 7,000 articles across news, features, explainers, and reviews.

Sudhanshu spends a lot of time following new hardware, software, and AI developments, but he is especially interested in the parts of tech that people actually interact with every day. That includes everything from phones and PC hardware to gaming gear, keyboards, and the games themselves.

 

Outside of work, he is usually playing first-person shooters such as Rainbow Six Siege or working his way through another Souls-like. That interest also feeds into his reviews, especially when it comes to gameplay, performance, controls, and the hardware used to play them.
