At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict The Samsung Galaxy NotePro 12.2 is a seriously impressive tablet that blows away the vast majority of Android tablets and leaves them eating its dust in terms of power. If you’ve got £600 to blow and want a tablet that’s bigger than 10-inches then this powerhouse won’t disappoint in terms of performance and looks, and to be frank it’s your only option as it’s the only device out there like this....

Pricing for the forthcoming Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge smartphone has reportedly been locked in, and it’s not going to be cheap. We had previously heard it rumoured that Samsung’s super-skinny flagship, the Galaxy S25 Edge , would be priced between the S25+ and Ultra. In other words, we were expecting it to come in somewhere between £999 / $999.99 and £1,249 / $1,299.99. Now South Korean outlet FNNews is reporting that Samsung has set the domestic price of the Galaxy S25 Edge at 1....

At a Glance Our Verdict Where the Tab S5e is a cheaper option for those with a tighter budget, the S6 is a premium model that’s more expensive. They have many similarities, but a key difference is that the S5e doesn’t come with an S-Pen. Best Prices Today: Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 If you’re after a good-quality Android tablet, there isn’t a whole lot of choice. Not many companies make them and new models are relatively few and far between....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict The T5 isn’t cheap, but it delivers on the critical performance that a portable SSDs are bought to ensure. Using one with a laptop that has a hard drive is largely pointless, as the full speed advantages can only be achieved if used in combination with an internal SSD.

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Pros Great audio quality Improved battery life Touch controls Cons Expensive Average ANC performance Chunky carry case Our Verdict The Sennheiser Momentum True Wireless 2 earbuds sound great, look great and feature much-improved battery life compared to the originals, but the high price and average ANC performance mean it’s not a cut-and-dry recommendation.

SEO (Search Engine Optimisation) is all about growing the quality and quantity of website traffic. It is important that you take time to master the do’s and don’ts to have your website ranking highly. Although SEO techniques are always changing, there are still some basic things that will remain the same over time. SEO essentially has two main disciplines, technical SEO and content SEO – both equally valuable. And while some businesses will rely more heavily on search-led content, others like ecommerce sites are becoming more like content sites every day, offering not only a place to shop but somewhere to read reviews, get advice and keep up to date with industry news....

At a glance Expert’s Rating Pros Compact, waterproof design Decent battery life Strong bass levels Cons Audio not as strong as rivals Micro-USB charging rather than USB-C No aptX or AAC codecs Our Verdict The Sharp GX-BT60 offers punchy sound for a smaller speaker, but it is not without its flaws.

Sharp’s air purifiers come in three sizes, for small, medium and large rooms. They’ve been designed to be effective against a range of indoor pollutants, and maintain the room at an ideal humidity. Usually, people spend 90% of their time indoors: that’s including the office, the cinema, pubs, shops and the gym. Of course, since lockdown, that figure has been much closer to 100% (and much closer than we’d like) – and almost all of it has been spent at home....

At a glance Expert’s Rating Pros Well-built and easy-to-grip Good screen quality Versatile camera Great battery life Cons Limited performance 60Hz screen Mediocre speakers Slow charging Our Verdict The Xperia 10 V is close to the mark for a good mid-range phone, but it falls short thanks to a bunch of details that aren’t up to standard. What’s good, like the design, interface and battery life, is very good. If you can get it at a discounted price, which is not uncommon, it might be worth it....

At a Glance Our Verdict If you haven’t decided based on price or operating system, this is quite a tricky choice. While the Xperia XZ1 offers HDR and 960fps slo-mo video, the iPhone 8 has wireless charging and the option of dual camera. It’s too close to call really, but audiophiles will almost certainly want to choose the XZ1, though. Best Prices Today: Apple iPhone 8 New phones from Sony and Apple are on sale today, but which one should you buy?...

At a Glance Our Verdict As we said in our initial review of the XZ2, we have mixed feelings about the phone. The redesign doesn’t go far enough in our opinion, and aside from a couple of camera features there aren’t a whole lot of reasons to buy it over other Android flagships. With the iPhone 8, you’re getting a dated design but great performance and great cameras. We’ll update this review with more concrete buying advice once we’ve fully tested the Xperia XZ2, which is likely to be in early April....

Every single time Sony manages to confuse us with the name of its next new phone. History suggests this should be the Sony Xperia XZ1 Premium (except it doesn’t have a 4K screen), or the Sony Xperia XZ Pro as rumoured, but nope it’s the Sony Xperia XZ2, launched alongside a Compact version at MWC 2018 at the end of February. They’re available but Sony has gone and announced a new Premium version....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict Although not much has changed from the Xperia Z1, the Xperia Z2 is another solid effort from Sony. The smartphone is a good all-rounder with a great screen, camera, build quality and performance. We just wish it wasn’t quite so bulky. Best Prices Today: Sony Xperia Z2 Sony has updated its flagship smartphone to a new model very quickly to the Xperia Z2....

At a glance Expert’s Rating Pros Gum-protecting cleaning Long battery life and USB charging Waterproof and easy to keep clean Cons Large brushing head Only two intensity settings Accessories are expensive Our Verdict The Ultim8 is attractively designed, fairly reasonably priced and has the key features you need in an electric toothbrush (a two-minute timer and pressure sensor). Its soft-bristled toothbrush head could be a great option for people who need to take better care of their gums, but its large size means that it’s not for everyone....

At a Glance Our Verdict The 13.5in Surface Book 2 is aimed at people who need a powerful laptop as well as a tablet, and it’s one of the best 2-in-1s around. But it is also very expensive, especially if you need a Core i7 and an Nvidia graphics chip. The Surface Laptop 2 almost looks like a bargain in comparison, but remains a premium ultraportable laptop that’s probably out of the reach of most of the students it’s aimed at....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict A very decent laptop replacement, and an okay tablet, the Surface Pro 3 is undeniably impressive. If you need a single device to do everything we can’t think of any better device. And when you Consider the cost of buying a discrete laptop, tablet and desktop PC the Surface Pro 3 is priced to shift. The question remains as to whether people want a single device rather than multiple gadgets that are better at their individual tasks....
