Verdict The Redmi Watch 4 is a cheap smartwatch that makes some nice design changes from its predecessor and is overall pretty likeable for something that behaves more like a fitness watch than smartwatch, though doesn’t quite outperform the similarly priced competition. Pros Smooth-running watch software Thoughtful fitness and workout features Good, big screen Cons […]
Verdict The OnePlus Watch 2 pushes the battery boundaries for Wear OS, which is a big win for OnePlus and for the Google platform as a whole. Pros Good battery life (with raise to wake) Slick WearOS skin Good sports and fitness tracking features Cons While it is well-made, it doesn’t stand out from the […]
Verdict The Vivo V30 Pro is an affordable midrange handset with cameras that punch well above their weight. Especially the selfie camera, which might just be the best snapper of them all. With limited availability though, getting your hands on one might prove challenging. Pros Triple 50MP camera system Slim stylish design Fast charging and […]
Verdict Content creators, podcasters and multimedia journalists in need of a portable and easy-to-use mic setup with excellent audio quality should give the DJI Mic 2 a close look. There are certainly cheaper options available (including, while stocks last, the original DJI Mic), but the Mic 2’s high-quality audio, user-friendliness and effective noise cancellation go […]

With accurate heart rate monitoring and GPS in tow, too, it becomes a superb option for beginners and intermediates – even if adding music support ensures some of that value is lost. Pros Superb AMOLED […]
Verdict The OnePlus 12R harks back to the brand’s former devices with both positive and negative consequences. There’s a focus on performance and the spec list certainly impresses for the price. However there’s some of the negative bits of OnePlus’ past included too, including a very mid-range camera array. Pros The screen is great Good […]
Verdict A Bluetooth card tracker to find a lost wallet can be a lifesaver in the right situation, but the Chipolo Card Spot goes a step further with that. As one of the only card trackers with Find My integration, for iOS users it becomes a no-brainer as a purchase. But for UWB support or […]
Verdict The RingConn Smart Ring is an elegant smart ring that manages to offer the level of tracking you’d expect to get from most wrist-worn fitness trackers. It’s got better battery life than the competition with an app that’s free to access with more features to come. If the app can be polished up a […]
Verdict The One Spot is a new key tracker from Chipolo with one killer feature: Find My integration. While this makes it arguably useless for Android users, for iOS users, the One Spot is capable of incredibly precise tracking. But for the inclusion of some other colour options or UWB support, it would be an […]
Verdict Though a card tracker is always a sensible purchase, the form factor ends up limiting its usefulness somewhat. Not so for the Chipolo Card, which combines a fully featured app, powerful tracking and a small, svelte design that means it can be used nearly anywhere. It has some drawbacks, like a non-user-replaceable battery, but […]
