LG S95QR
Another hugely impressive soundbar system
from LG, this time with a world first: an
up-firing centre speaker that promises more
immersive audio while also making dialogue
clearer and crisper (so no more rewinding
and leaning forward to hear what’s been
said). There’s 9.1.5 channels of output,
810W of power, and a ton of ace audio tech.

AUTO MA1
Android Auto is a fantastic platform for
using your phone with your car, but it often
means fiddling around with wires – only
the newest motors and their dashboards
support wireless operation. The Motorola
Android Auto MA1 overcomes this
limitation, enabling you to use any Android-
Auto-ready infotainment system wirelessly.
It’s a breeze to set up, too.

EASYREAD 24B1D5600
We’re always pleased to see manufacturers

spirit we present to you the EasyRead

ULTR A
The smart robot vacuums just keep on
getting smarter, as the Roborock S7 MaxV
Ultra proves. It picks up dust and dirt, it
mops floors, and it even empties itself and
refills its own reservoir, cutting down on the
amount of maintenance you need to worry
about. It’s also super-smart at finding its
way around your home.

Through its various refreshes, the Dell
XPS 13 always appears high on lists of the
best laptops – quite simply, it combines
beautiful looks, excellent performance
and impressive portability. The latest Plus
model aims to innovate in terms of its
design, with a touchpad that’s the width of
the keyboard and a touch-sensitive strip
under the 13-inch screen.

This adaptive weights system can give
you a customised, comprehensive weights
workout in the comfort of your home, and
without any bulky, space-hogging equipment
lying around either. You simply step on the
training platform and get started – although
the cost is on the expensive side, and for
the best results you’ll need to sign up for
a subscription too.
