SUPERTEST SSUPERPHONES

Samsung has shot

to the front of the

pack faster than

Boris Johnson in

a buffet queue: the Galaxy

S8 is a stunning slab of

smartphone excellence

that deserves a spot in

your pocket. It’s fast, takes

fantastic photos and has the

best screen out there, bar

none. Those supermodel

good looks, curved sides and

baby screen bezels mean

you won’t want to give it

back once you’ve got one

in your hand.

OnePlus might still have

the edge when it comes to

pure value, and Apple fans will

probably stick to what they

know rather than switching

to Android, but with VR

support, the ability to double

as a desktop PC and an AI

assistant with potential, the

S8 is a clear winner.

+^ Now add these

Aukey 5000mAh
Mini Power Bank
Small enough for a pocket,
but with enough juice to
recharge an S8 and still have some left
in the tank. It’s got a USB-C connection
and can handle 5V/3A quick charging.
£17 / amazon.co.uk

Ikea Riggad table lamp
No need to mess about with
cables – plonk your S8 on
one of these and let it charge
wirelessly. The A++ energy-rated lamp
is magnificently minimal, so no-one will
know about its tech trickery.
£49 / ikea.com

Withings Steel HR
The Steel HR has subtle
looks and analogue hands,
but prod the crown and a
secondary digital screen springs into
life. It’s got all the tracking tech you
need, including a heart-rate sensor.
