Realme launched its first tablet in India back in September, and now the device is finally coming to Europe. The Realme Pad is a budget slate with basic specs, although it’s clear the company is focusing on entertainment rather than productivity. That’s reflected in the price – starting at €239, it’s one of the cheapest Android tablets you can buy. All models are powered by MediaTek’s Helio G80, a chipset designed with casual gaming in mind....

At a glance Expert’s Rating Pros Sleek design Decent screen Excellent quad speakers Solid battery life Cons Slow charging Basic cameras Software quirks Our Verdict If you’re looking for a nice-looking multimedia tablet with solid all-round performance at a very affordable price, then the Redmi Pad 2 is a great choice.

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict The SpyTrack Nano is a great GPS tracker which costs less than some of its rivals. You can keep tabs on a child or you could use it to monitor staff who work in the field. Just remember that unlike a Bluetooth tracker, there’s a SIM card for communication which means you’ll have to pay a monthly fee or or pay as you go in order for it to work....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict There’s not really much to complain about when it comes to RHA’s T20 Wireless in-ear headphones. They offer a blend of wireless and wired support alongside incredible-sounding audio, which is further enhanced by the inclusion of custom tuning filters that emphasise bass and treble. The 12-hour battery life isn’t the longest we’ve ever seen from a pair of neckbuds, and the lack of Bluetooth 5....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict Risk Of Rain might look a little rough’n’ready, but it’s got it where it counts. Smart, challenging and tactical, but with all the instant cheer of a 90s run’n’gun game. Best Prices Today: Risk of Rain A superficial glance at last year’s gaming headlines might suggest 2013 was the year of new consoles. Not a bit of it – the big gaming shift last year was a resurgence of roguelikes and their offspring – games based around the concept (and join terror/thrill) of permanent character death....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Pros Lightweight Excellent cleaning power Useful OLED display Cons Noisy Limited app use Odd acessories Our Verdict The Roidmi X30 is a powerful cordless with upmarket features, including an OLED screen and vacuum headlights, but it’s about half the price of top-flight cleaners like the Dyson V11 and Miele’s TriFlex. Best Prices Today: Roidmi X30 Pro The X30 Pro is an upgrade in every sense – power, suction, battery life – to the X20, which we reviewed and liked a lot....

At a glance Expert’s Rating Pros Top-notch performance Hardware encryption Heatsink an option Cons Not a bargain No 4TB option, yet TBW surpassed by other drives Our Verdict A dramatic improvement over the 980 Pro. The 990 Pro is a drive that can genuinely match the best that Seagate, WD and Kingston have to offer. However, you pay for this privilege, and the largest drive size is only 2TB. Those looking for a better TBW and lower cost per GB might Consider other options....

At a glance Expert’s Rating Pros Beautifully designed Clean Station, which automatically empties and charges the vacuum Cleaning tools for every surface Powerful suction Swappable battery Cons Expensive AI features aren’t life-changing Our Verdict There’s everything to like about this cordless vacuum, with its host of brilliant features. Most notably there’s the Clean Station, which means you’ll never have to empty your vacuum again. And there’s little to find fault with, except for the the fact that the AI features for which it’s named aren’t show-stopping enough to justify its high price....

A couple of years ago, Microsoft showed off its Continuum feature which enabled a Windows 10 phone to double as a PC . Now, Samsung is doing the same with the Galaxy S8 (reviewed here). The Samsung DeX Station is quite a lot like the Microsoft Display Dock, and is the gadget you’ll need in order to hook up your Galaxy S8 or Galaxy S8 Plus to a PC monitor....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict The all-new Samsung Galaxy A3 for 2016 is a great upgrade over the 2015 model with an excellent design and very good battery life. It’s priced higher than its faster rivals, but Samsung phones tend to rapidly drop in price – exactly how much the price goes down will decide this mid-range Android’s fate. Best Prices Today: Samsung Galaxy A3 2016 The Galaxy A3 is the entry model in Samsung’s mid-range A series, which comprises the Galaxy A3, A5 and A7....

At a glance Expert’s Rating Pros Thinner and lighter than before Good user experience with nice AI additions Improved fast-charging Longer software support than predecessors Cons Secondary cameras don’t add much Not great for gaming Lacklustre speakers Pricey given the features Our Verdict A respectable distillation of the company’s current flagship experience for half the price of a Galaxy S25+. The A56 builds on its predecessors’ strengths and comes with better software support than ever, but still lags behind on performance and features when compared to the wider mid-range market....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict The Galaxy S10 is a very good phone, sacrificing only screen size, dual front facing cameras and battery life compared to the S10 Plus. The regular S10 is a more comfortable size phone at a better price and has the same great triple rear cameras. Build quality is outstanding and it has every feature under the sun, with a headphone jack, wireless charging, full waterproofing and the best display on a smartphone to date....

At a glance Expert’s Rating Pros Outstandingly fast Very good cameras Excellent battery life Lovely premium object Cons Slow 45W charging Poor selfie camera Huge premium object Our Verdict The Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra is the most phone you can buy with every feature you could ask for, with the only downsides being its size, bad selfie camera, and slow charging. Best Prices Today: Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra When the Galaxy S23 Ultra was announced, I said it showed Samsung doesn’t have to try anymore because the phone is so similar to the Galaxy S22 Ultra from 2022....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict Android tablets are few and far between these days so it’s great to see Samsung continuing to offer an alternative to the iPad. Even if it is at a fairly steep price. This year, the tablet isn’t hugely different when it comes to design but does have a larger screen and even more of a focus on using it for productivity as a laptop replacement....

At a glance Expert’s Rating Pros Solid design Lovely main display Excellent main camera Good everyday performance Cons Underwhelming battery life Cover screen could be better Slow charging Our Verdict The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE is a great phone in many ways. It has a solid design, excellent camera and decent everyday performance. The displays are fantastic too, and Samsung’s software experience is one of the best in the business....

At a Glance Expert’s Rating Pros Improved design and durability Productivity powerhouse Beautiful displays Consistent cameras Cons Some apps require manual optimisation Terrible under-display camera Cumbersome Our Verdict An industry-defining foldable that offers improved hardware, optimised software and a few surprises (like S Pen stylus support and water resistance), on top of a lower price tag than its predecessor Best Prices Today: Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 It may not have been the first but Samsung has managed to position itself as the category-defining brand when it comes to foldables; with its latest Galaxy Z Fold 3 likely to serve as the standard that similarly-styled rivals will be measured against (at least until the Fold 4 arrives)....

Samsung’s Galaxy Z Flip 5 is finally here, and the phone has landed as a pretty direct riposte to the latest Motorola Razr: do your best, we’ll still do better. When Motorola’s Razr+ (or Razr 40 Ultra, the name varies annoyingly by market) launched last month its expansive outer screen was a genuine first, and a welcome surprise – after a few years as the underdog, the company finally seemed to be punching above its weight....

There’s another smartwatch in town. Samsung’s Galaxy Watch Active 2 joins the original just six months after launch by offering two display sizes and more casing, colour and strap options. Samsung will continue to sell both models alongside one another. The new Watch Active 2 comes in either a 40 or 44mm size, stainless or aluminium case and silicone or leather strap. It starts at $279 for the 40mm version and $299 for the 44mm....

Samsung got into a spot of PR bother this week after reports that its flagship Galaxy S10 and Note 10 phones have a bug that might allow any fingerprint to unlock them. It turns out that if you’d registered your print while the phone was in an all-over silicone case, the phone reads the inside of the case and not your print, therefore allowing any press to get into the device....
