At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict We’re not blown away from the Dknight Big MagicBox – sure, it looks cool in terms of design but there isn’t much else to say. The bass is disappointing, there’s no top end and the mids sound a bit harsh. It’s good for volume, although slightly distorted at the high end, but there are better Bluetooth speakers available at a similar price.

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict There used to be several choices for anybody wanting to use speech recognition on a PC. Now, there’s pretty much only Dragon Naturally Speaking, but version 13 is still innovative.

But although the rumour’s source is a bit out there, the concept itself isn’t. An electric toothbrush would fit in with Dyson’s growing lineup of beauty tech products, the first of which was the game-changing Dyson Supersonic hair dryer . Chris Martin / Foundry Although that was a leap in terms of product categories (from vacuums and fans to hair styling), it wasn’t in terms of tech. It was just Dyson applying to a new market its expertise in moving air around....

At a glance Expert’s Rating Pros Well-made headphones Excellent audio quality Top-notch ANC performance Long battery life for audio Cons Bulky and heavy Some design flaws Very expensive Socially awkward Our Verdict While the Dyson Zone are remarkable in many ways, not all of them are positive and for the vast majority of people, they will be simply too big, costly, embarrassing and unnecessary.

There are signs that Dyson has a new robot vacuum cleaner launch on the horizon. There’s no official word out from the brand but some details have already emerged.

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict The EVGA GT 710 is an inexpensive way to add up to three display outputs to your PC, along with Nvidia’s driver support and enhanced features.

The iPhone 16 was officially unveiled today but I will be holding out for the iPhone 17. While the innovations in the Pro models are minor compared to their predecessors and are only likely to interest die-hard iPhone fans, the normal iPhone 16 at least has a small redesign of the camera on the back. They will also now have the action button that Apple gave the two Pro models in 2023....

A solid pair of wireless headphones are a must while working from home, and at this price the Beats Solo 3 are an excellent option. Currys are currently selling the Pop Violet variant for just £99 , shaving £70 off the RRP.

No, you’re not dreaming. Google really is making one of the iPhone’s most prized features available on Android, and it can’t come soon enough.

Android has its own equivalent in the form of Quick Share but historically, this has only worked with other devices running Google’s OS....

I thought I’d been doing a good job keeping my Roomba clean, carefully pulling clumps of hair off its brushes and wheels and emptying its bin after every cleaning. Little did I know that dust and gunk were building up in places where I wasn’t even looking. First, consider the metal charging contacts on the Roomba’s base station. When was the last time you gave them a close look—or looked at them at all, for that matter?...

The final frontier in the age of the smartphone is battery life. Phones have replaced many other electronic devices in our lives, but we still need to charge them every night because battery technology isn’t as advanced as the rest of the components and software stuffed into our pocket computers. We don’t seem to mind charging them once (or twice ) a day. So why is it that it’s so annoying to charge a smartwatch every day?...
