First Impressions The OnePlus Pad presents an interesting prospect against competitors like the entry-level iPad, but its cost will be the key factor as to whether or not it becomes a success. 7:5 screen ratio:The first tablet to carry the ratio 144Hz refresh rate:Designed for smoother scrolling Dolby Atmos and Dolby Vision compatible:Designed to boost […]
Verdict While it won’t be appreciated by everyone, the Remarkable 2’s simplicity and scaled back approach make it easily accessible and a joy to use for note-taking and brainstorming. Pros Distraction free writing experience Simple but elegant UI Large screen that’s easy to read in good conditions Cons Limited feature set compared to the competition […]
Verdict The hardware is solid, but a reliance on patchy Huawei software means the MatePad can’t realistically compete with Samsung or Apple alternatives. Pros Excellent screen Super-slim Huawei makes a quality keyboard accessory Good speakers Cons Plastic build may not cut it at this price No access to Google Play or Google apps App library […]
Verdict The Vivomove Trend fits in well with Garmin’s other hybrid smartwatches, offering a nice design and useful fitness, health and smartwatch features but it feels too close in price to the Vivomove Style, which offers more battery in watch mode and an AMOLED display. Pros Great look Well integrated digital display Impressive array of […]
Verdict The Asus ROG Phone 7 Ultimate is a beast of a gaming phone, with rapid performance, booming speakers and cutting-edge features.

Pros Premium look and feel Great main camera performance Decent everyday performance Cons MIUI can be frustrating to use Photos can appear […]
Verdict The Xiaomi 12 Lite is an affordable smartphone that combines a gorgeous iridescent design with a smooth display and equally slick 67W fast charging. The 108-megapixel camera delivers bright results with natural colours but images are over-sharpened and the phone misses out on some key features available on the Xiaomi 12.

The OnePlus Nord CE 3 Lite has a lot going for it, not only in terms of general design but key features like a 5,000mAh battery, a large 6.78-inch display and 67W fast charging […]
