At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict Entry level users are unlikely to get the most out of the Automat, and might find it pretty overwhelming at first. But if you’re looking for an instant camera that gives you more complex features to play around with – and think you know how to make the most of them – the Automat offers an awful lot for the price. Best Prices Today: Lomo’Instant Automat Glass Lomography offers a selection of different instant cameras to fit each of Instax’s print sizes, along with an almost overwhelming set of different colour and design options....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict The Lumsing Prophet is a very basic Bluetooth speaker that’s available at a great price. Audiophiles may not look twice, but for the rest of us who like a bargain that’s exactly what you’ll get. So it can’t charge your phone, it doesn’t support Wi-Fi, it uses an old Bluetooth standard and you never really know where you are in terms of remaining power or volume, but it’s loud, it’s easy to use, it supports handsfree solo- or conference calls and it keeps going for hours on end....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Premium sits beside your traditional IS suite, filling in any gaps in its defences. It’s small and efficient, quick to scan and appears to offer extra protection against sneakier security threats. It represents an inexpensive addition to the arsenal of software needed to keep your computing safe. Best Prices Today: Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Premium It has rescued machines in this reviewer’s care on more than one occasion, detecting and removing threats either not flagged up by conventional AV software, or cleaning out those ‘hard to shift’ attacks....

Currently, there are more than 2 million people in the UK who are blind or have severe sight loss. They have very limited options when buying home appliances because few are designed with their needs in mind. As more companies are moving towards digital displays, options can be even more sparse as these products can be difficult for blind people to use. That’s not to say that advancing technology isn’t solving problems in other areas....

One of the longest running action franchises around is back, as Tom Cruise returns as Ethan Hunt for the sixth time in Mission: Impossible – Fallout. That means more ludicrous stuntwork, silly gadgets, and face-changing masks, all in the name of saving the world from something or other and throwing Tom Cruise off something very tall. Here’s everything you need to know about Mission: Impossible 6. We’ve already seen the film, so read our Mission: Impossible – Fallout review to find out how it shapes up (spoiler: it’s very, very, very good) or find out whether or not the film has a post-credit scene ....

At a Glance Our Verdict If you’ve already got a G4, there’s not really enough here to warrant an upgrade, although the fingerprint scanner and Google Assistant could prove tempting. But for those choosing between the two, it’s an easy one: buy the G5 Best Prices Today: Moto G5 Another year, another Moto G. But far from being dull, the 2017 upgrade to this budget Android phone is one of the most exciting yet....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict With a big battery and simple specs, the Moto G8 Power will last for days without breaking a sweat. On the downside it’s not much of a looker, it can get a little sluggish, and while the main camera lens is fine the additional shooters don’t add much. This price point is all about priorities though, so if battery is yours then look no further....

Motorola, well Lenovo since it now owns the brand, didn’t launch a Moto X in 2016, instead introducing the Moto Z range. So far this year we’ve seen new models in the E, G and Z ranges, and now there’s a new Moto X for 2017. Apparently, there’s also an Android One version of the Moto X4 coming, according to this tweet by prolific leakster Evan Blass: Well isn’t this interesting… pic....

At a glance Expert’s Rating Pros Dependably fast charging Nice size and shape Great display Cons Feels cheap in the hand Poor camera quality in low light Extra branding on the rear Our Verdict The Motorola Edge 30 Neo is a likeable handset that gets a lot right. Nicely sized, with a great display and decent cameras it makes a good impression and makes a case for more sensibly-sized phones. If it wasn’t for the cheap design and poor low-light camera performance, it would be an easy recommendation....

Motorola is bringing its latest foldable Razr flip phone to the UK at a price that undercuts Samsung’s Galaxy Z Flip 4. The Motorola Razr 2022 – that’s its official name – will cost £949.99/€1,199 compared to the £999/€1,109 Samsung sells the Z Flip for. So, although the Razr costs more than the Z Flip 4 in mainland Europe, in the UK Motorola is undercutting Samsung by £50. The phone will be available soon, though the company frustratingly has not set official release dates....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict The NEC MultiSync P242W is well equipped to be a robust and dependable 24-inch PC monitor of very high quality to meet professionals’ expectations. Image and build quality were superb, excepting a maddening whistle which could annoy any nearby user enough to welcome its switch off. A final rating is difficult, but assuming you can find a functioning silent sample – and our scores are based on that hope – it would earn a recommendation....

Back in March 2021, Royal Mail warned people about fake emails and text messages which claimed parcels couldn’t be delivered. The scam revolved around arranging a new delivery date, which meant entering details such as your name, address and paying a small fee for the service. Because the messages and fake website that they linked to were quite convincing, they tricked a lot of people into handing over their credit or debit card details....

This is a true next-gen Console with only minor faults, and will likely be a bestseller for years to come....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Pros Extremely resilient design Extended warranty Battery life & wireless charging 5G support Cons Limited performance 60Hz refresh rate No charging brick Our Verdict The Nokia XR20 gets the balance just about right for an affordable rugged phone. It might be more expensive than the Motorola Defy, but it’s a far less compromised phone to use day-to-day overall. Best Prices Today: Nokia XR20 Nokia might just have hit the ‘affordable rugged phone’ sweet spot with the Nokia XR20....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Pros Stellar performance Excellent mobile gaming experience Much-improved cameras Affordable price Cons Heavy and bulky Small battery Hit-and-miss software Our Verdict The Red Magic 7 is a real contender for the best gaming phone right now with some great performance and features, but it could soon be overshadowed by the 7 Pro. With only minor upgrades here, it might be worth waiting until that phone arrives....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict It’s cheaper than the best UK budget phones, yet blows them out the water on performance. For the money the good-looking Nubia Z17 Mini’s hardware is more than adequate, it’s just a shame it’s not running the latest Android software. Best Prices Today: Nubia Z17 Mini A subsidiary of the better-known ZTE, Nubia isn’t a Chinese brand we’ve come across in the past. But its Z17 Mini – a budget phone with a mid-range spec – makes us want to see more....

OnePlus is no stranger to special edition phones, or gaming tie-ins. That said, I can’t imagine anyone predicted the announcement of the Nord 2 Pac-Man Edition. Pac-Man isn’t exactly cutting-edge tech, nor does it tie-in to OnePlus’s frequent branding around speed – is a Sonic phone next? What Pac-Man does offer is a strong aesthetic and instant brand recognition. For many people this is – or at least was for a long time – the default association with videogames....

OnePlus has quickly proven itself to be one of the best smartwatch makers in the business, despite an awful start, and it’s now fixed our biggest complaint about the most recent model, the Watch 3. To date, and it’s a common issue we have with other smartwatch brands as well, the OnePlus Watch has always been available in just one size. We didn’t think the firm would address this until the Watch 4, but a new, smaller model of the Watch 3 has been confirmed to launch on 8 July ....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict They come remarkably close to the sound of our beloved Stax electrostatics in some ways, with a little less extreme HF reach although the OPPO PM-1 planar-magnetic headphones stride ahead in respect of their mastery of bass instruments. The build quality and meticulous attention to their engineering make these a high-end design in material science as much as in their palpable sonic brilliance. They are a benchmark design and easy to recommend....
