England earned their ninth straight win after scoring four second-half tries to see off Fiji 38-18 at Twickenham.
Steve Borthwick's side had opened the scoring through Luke Cowan-Dickie before Fiji flipped the script when Tevita Ikanivere and Caleb Muntz crossed.
Ellis Genge and Ikanivere then traded scores, but England were in control during an entertaining second half, with their bench delivering.
Jamie George and Henry Arundell finished off tries on either side of a spill from Simi Kuruvoli, and captain Maro Itoje came on to cap the win himself.
Next up for England is New Zealand, who brushed aside Scotland 25-17 at Murrayfield.

Scotland, who had come into the match on the back of a confidence-boosting 85-0 win over the United States, trailed 17-0 to the All Blacks at the break.
They drew level early in the second half through Ewan Ashman and Kyle Steyn, but Damian McKenzie struck late to deny the hosts a historic win.
Elsewhere, Australia suffered a second consecutive loss as they were beaten 26-19 by an Italy comeback in Udine as Louis Lynagh, son of Wallaby legend Michael, inspired a dramatic win.
France could not pull off a similar upset, however, as world champions South Africa overcame a first-half permanent red card for Lood de Jager to earn a 32-17 victory in the sides' first meeting since the infamous 2023 Rugby World Cup quarter-final.
And in Saturday's early game, Ireland bounced back from their defeat to the All Blacks by brushing aside Japan 41-10, scoring six tries, but losing Jamie Osborne to injury.
Data Debrief: England keep on winning
England have lost just once in 2025 – their Six Nations opener against Ireland – but have been largely unstoppable since then.
Their streak of nine wins in a row is their best run in men's Test rugby since an 18-game streak from 2015 to 2017.
And in France's game, history was made. Damian Penaud (39) is now the all-time leading try scorer for Les Bleus in men's Test rugby, overtaking Serge Blanco (38) – Penaud has reached that tally in his 57th Test, compared to Blanco's 93 caps.
