At a Glance Our Verdict With a number of upgrades, the Surface Pro 4 is a decent upgrade. It’s thinner and lighter yet has a bigger screen, the same ports and the latest Intel processors. However, the 1TB model isn’t available in the UK and the price has gone up. The Surface Pro 3 is by no means suddenly rubbish and the fact you can get it cheaper and it supports the new Surface Pen and Type Cover make it a tempting buy....

Microsoft has revealed the ARM-powered Surface Pro X alongside the Surface Pro 7 at an event in New York City. It’s the first ARM-based Surface from the company since the Surface 2 way back in 2013, but this time around, Microsoft views it as a Pro-class machine. It certainly offers some interesting features compared to the standard Surface Pro 7, and it’s due out later this year. Here’s all you need to know about the Surface Pro X, from release date and pricing to key features and specs....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict The Misfit Vapor 2 is good-looking, smart and fast in use with decent fitness tracking tech on-board, but a sub-24 hour battery life lets it down – even with quick charging capabilities. Best Prices Today: Misfit Vapor 2 Despite being bought out by Fossil in 2015, the Misfit brand isn’t dead. In fact, the company has recently released an upgrade to the hugely popular Misfit Vapor....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict £130 for an iPhone case seems expensive but Consider what you’re getting with the Mophie Space Pack: it’s a proper full-charge battery case (usual cost £89), with the added benefit of an extra 16GB or 32GB of storage space. Buy direct from Mophie and you can get the price lower while the UK pound (£) is strong against the US dollar ($) – we could get the 16GB model for £95....

At a Glance Our Verdict The upgrades might appeal to some, but the big price hike won’t. The G5s is better built and battery capacity returns to what it was in the Moto G4, but the new unibody design means the battery is no longer removable. Processing power remains the same, so for many, the original G5 still represents the best value. Best Prices Today: Moto G5S Motorola has launched a new version of the G5 , just a few months after launching it earlier this year....

The next high-end Motorola flagship is the Moto Z2 Force Edition, the clunkily named follow up to last year’s Moto Z. It is similar to previous US-only versions of Moto Force phones, featuring a screen the company guarantees will never crack or shatter. The Lenovo-designed Moto has kept the look of last year’s Moto Z with only subtle changes to the rear of the phone and the front-mounted fingerprint sensor. It has a Snapdragon 835 processor but no headphone jack, and continues Moto’s push for you to buy into its modular ecosystem....

There probably won’t be a Motorola Edge 60 Ultra released this year, but this isn’t the end for the flagship smartphone series. The Motorola Edge 60 Pro , Motorola Edge 60, and Motorola Edge 60 Fusion are currently supplying a little class to the mid-range smartphone market – but what of the flagship category? In other words, where’s our follow-up to the Motorola Edge 50 Ultra ? Don’t expect one this year, but keep your eyes peeled for 2026, is what we’re hearing....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict Overall, the Moto X Play is a decent mid-range phone. But, it’s not the great upgrade which Moto X owners were looking for. The camera is good, as is the screen, but performance could be better – as could battery life. Had Motorola offered the dual-SIM version in the UK and made the phone waterproof, it would have had enough to be a decent alternative to the OnePlus 2....

At a glance Expert’s Rating Pros Extremely affordable Capable in mid-range games Slim, light chassis Satisfying keyboard Cons Rivals are routinely faster Single-channel memory Disappointing display and battery life Our Verdict The MSI GF63 Thin is cheap, it handles everyday eSports and mainstream games at mid-range settings, and it’s got a decent keyboard and a slim, light design. Rivals perform better in various ways but for office work followed by gaming time at the end of the day, it’s a good value buy....

The Nintendo Switch console is selling extremely well but the Japanese firm has another new device to tempt you with.

The rumour mill was going insane over the possibility of a new Nexus 7 tablet being announced at the Google I/O keynote event in May, and then again during the August Nougat release, and then again for Google’s October event, and of course it didn’t happen. Yet the new Nexus 7 is still the subject of much speculation, and it’s apparently on track for release before the end of the year....

At a Glance Our Verdict The Nexus 9 is undoubtedly better than the Nexus 7 with a more powerful 64-bit processor, better cameras and front facing stereo speakers. The screen is bigger too but there’s a drop in pixel density and an increase in price. Stand by for an update once we get our hands on the Nexus 9. Best Prices Today: Google Nexus 9 As expected, Google has announced the Nexus 9 with Android 5....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict Nokia’s app is a little basic, and this three-piece kit might be overkill for many small and medium size homes, but the strong performance of the Beacon 1 mesh routers will be great for larger homes that need a faster and more reliable wifi signal. Best Prices Today: Nokia Beacon 1 Nokia is best known for its glory days when it dominated the emerging smartphone market – and for its more recent comeback with newer models such as the Nokia 8....

At a Glance Our Verdict The Nokia X itself is relatively nice but it’s certainly a confusing proposition for Consumers – a Nokia smartphone with Android which looks like Windows Phone. Nokia will want to feed users up to Lumia devices as an upgrade but getting people to start with the Nokia X might be a hard task. Best Prices Today: Nokia X At MWC 2014, Nokia announced a range of smartphones running Android....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Pros Excellent battery life Magnetic wall mount & USB charger Well designed brush head Cons No pressure sensor App sometimes unpairs Mouth quadrant visual a bit off Our Verdict Slim and sleek with great battery life, the Oclean X Pro Elite is a terrific sonic toothbrush at a very reasonable price. However, the software isn’t as impressive as the hardware and the brush’s smart features can be hit and miss....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict It’s huge, it’s heavy, it’s incredibly expensive and it’s still available only via Indiegogo and not shipping until January. But the Omni Ultimate truly is the ultimate power bank for those with great needs, with some premium technology inside that offers the best efficiency, standby and protections. It’s also unique in this market for letting you swap in spare battery packs. Omni Ultimate can put its enormous 40,800mAh (147Wh) capacity to good use charging or powering literally any device you require, and it does so at a tremendous pace with a 120W AC outlet, 150W DC outlet, 60W USB-C PD and two 15W USB-As....

At a Glance Our Verdict Both the iPhone 7 and OnePlus 5 are great phones, but the latter has the edge on price as well as its bigger, higher-resolution screen. The base storage is also twice the iPhone’s, it has dual rear cameras and better battery life. It’s always hard to make a choice between Android and iOS, but as long as you’re not already tied in to one OS, the OnePlus 5 is the better-value phone in this comparison....

At a Glance Our Verdict If you want a clean version of Android and don’t want to spend much more than £500/$500 then the OnePlus 6T is the phone for you. But the Samsung Galaxy S9 can be found for less than its retail price now and is a smaller phone with more features than the 6T like waterproofing, wireless charging and a headphone jack. Best Prices Today: OnePlus 6T The latest phones from OnePlus and Samsung always cause a bit of a stir, and with good reason....

Last year, OnePlus staked its claim on the mid-range phone market with the excellent Nord, which we awarded top marks to when it passed through for review – so we have high hopes for the company’s new sequel, the Nord 2, which is finally official. After months of rumours OnePlus has revealed the Nord 2 in full, so we finally know its design, specs, and price – along with when you’ll actually be able to get your hands on one....
