I’d take the DJI Osmo Pocket 3 over a vlogging camera any day

DJI’s miniature gimbal camera makes a triumphant return in 2023, this time packing a 1-inch sensor and a much larger display. I’m a big fan of the DJI Pocket series cameras, I purchased the original at launch, and it still gets plenty of use to this day. The DJI Pocket 2 then followed in 2021,… Read more

Bowers & Wilkins Px7 S2e review: Detail oriented

It turns out that the B&W Px7 S2e aren’t, as I thought when the news of their arrival dropped into my inbox a few weeks ago, an entry-level version of the brand’s superb 2022 wireless headphones. And thank goodness for that. The very foundation of Bowers & Wilkins is built on quality – the day… Read more

Bose QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds review: The best ANC you can buy

Bose took us by surprise recently when, alongside the launch of the new QuietComfort Ultra flagship over-ears, it also announced the QuietComfort Ultra Earbuds – replacing the fantastic QuietComfort Earbuds II after barely a year on the shelves. That’s not very Bose-like behaviour – it usually leaves at least two years between launches, and in… Read more

HP Victus 16 (AMD, 2023) review: Strong performance at a competitive price

Positioned as HP’s ‘mainstream’ gaming laptop, the Victus 16 brings a lot to the table for a reasonable cost. We liked the recent update to HP’s high-end Omen 16 gaming laptop, but the company also updated its entry-level Victus 16 at the same time. Designed to provide a less expensive gateway into gaming, the 16-inch… Read more

OnePlus Open review: A no-compromise foldable phone

OnePlus’s smartphone journey has been an interesting one, to say the least. To the point where if you told anyone right when the super-affordable ‘flagship killer’ OnePlus One was announced that in a few years, the company would have a $1500 folding smartphone, they’d have laughed in your face. Now officially a sub-brand of Oppo,… Read more

Best Halloween tech 2023

Halloween comes but once a year and with all the options for celebrations and decorations, you can do better than the standard pumpkins and cobwebs. While there’s nothing wrong with going with the Halloween classics, with a little extra money and set-up you can create something truly spectacular for your next party, haunted house, or… Read more

Bang & Olufsen Beosound A5 review: Sounds expensive

How much is too much to spend on a portable speaker? It’s fair to say that Bang & Olufsen has never been too concerned about making the speakers it produces in any way “reasonably priced”. In fact, I’d be surprised if cost even made the list of considerations when the idea of the Beosound A5… Read more

VW ID. Buzz review: The most practical EV on the road

Capturing the spirit of VW’s long history with buses, think of the ID. Buzz as the platform for your next adventure. The ID. Buzz is arguably the most exciting model from VW’s ID line that has launched so far. Sure, as a car it doesn’t have mass market appeal like the ID. 3 might, but… Read more

JBL Charge 5 Wi-Fi review

It’s not exactly the most unknown of adages – if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. JBL disagrees, though. It’s ignored that advice and gone one better with its refresh of the already great Charge 5 speaker, and has actually improved it. The Charge 5 Wi-Fi might not have an inventive name, but that’s fine…. Read more

Hyundai Ioniq 6 review: Clean lines and clever tech make it a hit

I first got to drive the Hyundai Ioniq 6 at the tail end of 2022 and was left feeling hugely impressed with it. Since then, I’ve had a few more encounters with the car, including an interesting experiment in the US where Hyundai pitched it against the fab new Hyundai Santa Cruz pickup for a… Read more

Best personal safety devices 2023

As a young woman who stands at a ferocious five feet tall, I am no stranger to the struggles of personal safety. Looking back on my life so far I definitely wish I took karate as a kid, so I can unexpectedly fight any potential attackers but since I didn’t I now rely on a… Read more

Best computer speakers 2023

The best computer speakers are larger than the built-in ones on your computer and often include midrange drivers and a subwoofer for a fuller sound with more bass and less distortion at high volumes. All-in-one computers, gaming PCs, and laptops aren’t known for their stellar sound quality, and it’s worth getting computer speakers to enjoy… Read more

Sony A7C II review: Don’t call it a compact

Sony’s been here for years; in fact, it recently celebrated the 10th anniversary of its first Alpha series full-frame mirrorless camera. A lot has changed since then, but it would be very easy to argue that – of all the camera makers – Sony has been driving innovation harder than most. A big part of… Read more

Super Mario Bros. Wonder review: Fizzing with ideas

It’s been a while coming, but Super Mario Bros. Wonder is finally here to give the 2D side of Mario’s lineage a long-awaited update and inject it with some new ideas. The immediate good news is that it’s a total success. Wonder is a seriously delightful entry that brings some great new approaches and impressive… Read more

Best MagSafe battery packs 2023: Expert tested and reviewed

Since the introduction of Apple’s MagSafe technology with the iPhone 12, the ring of magnets that ensure the handset’s wireless charging puck is lined up with the charging coil in the phone has lead way to a sprawling accessory industry, with products ranging from MagSafe compatible cases and chargers, to MagSafe wallets and battery packs….
