Using our expert knowledge, we’ve scoured the web for the latest and greatest smart doorbell deals available right now for the likes of Ring, Nest, Netatmo and even a couple that you might not have heard of....
Samsung’s mid-range Galaxy A-series continues to evolve, with the 2025 lineup introducing the Galaxy A36 , a successor to last year’s Galaxy A35 . While they may seem similar on the surface, some key differences may well make one a better choice over the other for you. Let’s take a look at what sets them apart and which one offers the best value for money. Battery & Charging One of the most significant upgrades of the Galaxy A36 is its improved charging speed....
At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict BT’s Smart Baby Monitor with 5in screen has everything you need from a baby monitor and more. You’ll get a large, colour display to keep an eye on your little one from anywhere in the house, and can remotely adjust the angle and zoom of the camera at any time. There’s app connectivity and some smart features, but the latter is underwhelming and the app suffers from lag....
If your home is anything like mine, then it’s always a battle to get kids to turn off their screens and do something else. They can quickly become addicted to endlessly scrolling through social media feeds and watching videos with no sense that they’ve spent too long staring at a screen. The controls let you set an overall time limit, or limits for various types of activity, such as games & apps, reading, watching videos and more....
The Mavic 3 Pro is DJI’s follow-up to the Mavic 3, which arrived in November 2021. It’s aimed at pros and content creators looking for something high quality without spending crazy money. What makes it ‘Pro’ is that this latest drone has an upgraded camera with three lenses, something DJI is claiming as a world-first. In addition to the 20Mp four-thirds Hasselblad camera that’s shared with the Mavic 3, there are two telephoto lenses, a ‘medium tele’ with a focal length of 70mm (3x optical zoom, 12- or 48Mp) and a longer 166mm (7x) lens, which is 12Mp and has an f/3....
At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict We’re so impressed with the Osmo Active that we’re wondering why DJI hasn’t been making action cameras for years. This is a Hero 7 Black rival and a cheaper price with many of the same features and even some that GoPro doesn’t offer. Best Prices Today: DJI Osmo Action It’s been a long time coming but DJI has finally announced its own action camera to take on GoPro and other rivals....
Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse is the latest in a long line of movies taking on the webbed wallcrawler, but this one is a little different: it’s animated, there’s a new Spider-Man, and, uh, then there’s another five new Spider-People. The first film to bring the Miles Morales version of Spider-Man onto the big screen also surrounds him with a host of alternative takes on the character thanks to some inter-dimensional malarkey, resulting in a playful, witty film that’s unrelentingly inventive – read our review for more on why we loved it ....
Toshiba rebranded as Dynabook worldwide in 2019, but its classic product ranges aren’t going anywhere. That includes the business-focused Tecra range, with two new laptops announced today. The A40-K and A50-K are designed with flexible working in mind, but don’t sacrifice top-tier security and capable internals. Both are powered by Intel’s latest 12th-gen processors – a huge upgrade compared to the 8th-gen chips you’ll find in their predecessors. There’s a Core i7 CPU at the high-end, but it’s not clear what entry-level models offer....
Even before the pandemic, people spent 90% of their time indoors. A good chunk of it was in public buildings, like pubs, cinemas, offices and restaurants. But over the last year, much of that indoor time has been transferred chez vous. As we’re spending so much time at home, we have more time to worry about indoor air quality and to think about what we’re breathing in while we’re working from home, relaxing at home, eating at home, being bored at home....
At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict The Deebot 711 isn’t the smartest robot vacuum around, or the most powerful, or the quietest. But it is pretty good at all three of those things, with enough flexibility in different cleaning modes and options to suit most homes. The Smart Navi 2.0 system also lives up to its name, letting the vacuum navigate furniture and obstacles better than some substantially more expensive rivals....
At a Glance Expert’s Rating Our Verdict We’re very impressed with the Elephone P9000, which is a great all-round Android phone at an unbelievable sub-£200 price. It’s fast, battery life is good, it’s feature-packed and it even runs Marshmallow. Wireless- and quick-charging-, NFC-, USB-C-, dual-SIM- and microSD support are the icing on the cake. Recommended. Best Prices Today: Elephone P9000 Well, the Elephone P9000 has certainly been a pleasant surprise....
Frontier took to the stage at the first-ever Frontier Expo in London in late-2018 and announced the upcoming season of updates headed to Elite Dangerous, dubbed Beyond.

While 4K content has been out for a while, we’re only just now seeing a big shift to 4K as more and more consumers upgrade to TVs capable of supporting the format. If you haven’t already upgraded to 4K, now is a good time because it’s currently very affordable to do so. You will also notice a substantially better picture quality than viewing a High-Definition (HD) or Full High-Definition (FHD) TV....

There can be few regular internet users who haven’t heard of Facebook.com, the social-networking phenomenon launched in February 2004. The brainchild of Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook was originally intended for US college and university students – the term is derived from the book of faculty members’ mug shots that’s handed out to new students each year. Facebook has grown rapidly and now has more than 34 million registered users worldwide. The site depends on advertising revenue, which in 2006 amounted to $54m (about £27m)....
