The Bromley 450 carries over its larger sibling's 360-degree audio trickery. Like equivalents from other companies, Marshall's "True Stereophonic 360-degree sound" fools your brain into perceiving more directionality than its form factor allows. Lighting effects ("inspired by '70s stage shows") also carry over from the larger model.

The Headphone (a) has the same controls as the Nothing Headphone (1) which launched last year - the Roller, Paddle, and Button "provide a precise and effortless way to adjust volume, navigate media, and switch ANC modes without the friction often associated with touch interfaces", Nothing says in its official press release.

It's got a 20,000-mAh battery -- yes, twenty thousand milliamp hours -- with an included USB-C port for charging other devices. It also powers a large audio speaker and LED lamp on the back, the latter of which can get so bright that a pop-up dialog warns you not to look directly at it to avoid eye damage.

According to Soundcore, the Space 2 debuts with improved low-frequency noise cancellation, improved diaphragms for audio quality, and AI-powered noise reduction algorithms for clearer voice and better noise-canceling performance.

The Xiaomi Watch 5 has a 930mAh power pack. That's massive. Compare that with the OnePlus Watch 3's perceptively huge 648mAh battery - the Xiaomi Watch 5 has a 43% bigger battery! Xiaomi recons you can get a total of 6 days of endurance - unheard of for a Wear OS watch!

The packaging immediately signals that RAK took this seriously. Everything is clean and thought-out, you open the box and you get the device, a charging cable, and a lanyard. That lanyard might seem like a small detail, but it comes included at the same price point as other EDC-style devices. In other words, this isn't a cost-cutting compromise or a cosmetic extra, it's a well-considered, user-focused design choice.

Well, the day has finally come. It's now down to $1,000 over at Best Buy as part of the store's Presidents' Day sale. That's an incredible price for this much laptop. The previously mentioned memory and storage still apply here, along with the 2880 x 1800 OLED display with a 120-Hz refresh rate. This laptop basically has every high-end feature you could imagine, but one of my favorite aspects is the ports.

The buds will allegedly use a new QN3e processor which is billed to be three times faster than the one in the WF-1000XM5. There will also be eight adaptive mics (four per earbud), up from six (three per earbud) in the previous generation. There are even new drivers, as well as support for LDAC, DSEE Extreme, a 10-band EQ, Auracast, Multipoint, Fast Pair, and Swift Pair.

Without question, the 10,001mAh battery is the highlight feature of the phone, so that's where we turn to next. It's not that we haven't seen phones with similar or even bigger batteries before - it's just that this one is the first one we have tested that doesn't feel like a brick. It measures 162.3 x 76.2 x 9.1mm and weighs 219g, which is pretty standard for a phone with a 6.8" display.

I've had an 11-inch iPad Air M2 for almost two years now, and as ZDNET's deals and shopping editor, I'm always scouting for the best accessories worth investing in (and catching on sale). I've also had the chance to review plenty of gear, ranging from mobile and MagSafe accessories, iPad cases and gadgets, smart home and kitchen appliances, and more.

The Soundcore by Anker Space A40 Earbuds can block background noise, up to 98 percent, with Adaptive Active Noise Cancelling, so engine noise, chatter, and traffic sounds become almost inaudible. They remain small and lightweight, and the case is small enough to carry in your pocket. The earbuds feature Double-Layer Drivers that deliver strong bass, clear vocals, and detailed highs. They also support Hi-Res Wireless Audio via LDAC on supported phones.

You can pick up the 15-inch Microsoft Surface Laptop from Best Buy for $1,110, a $400 break from the usual $1,500 price tag. It's our favorite Windows laptop for non-gamers, and it sports smooth performance and great battery life. There are big improvements to the screen for this generation, with thinner bezels that give you more real estate without expanding the footprint.

As an avid iPad user, I'm all too familiar with the internal struggles that course through me when the battery is about to die. I love using either the iPad 11 or iPad Air to write and work, but I also use it to stream content, play games, and browse the internet after work. This makes me appreciate the iPad's long battery life, yet my anxiety grows when I start getting 'low battery' alerts without a charger nearby.

With the release of the Switch 2 last year, Nintendo simultaneously refreshed it's Pro Controller to release alongside the new console. The aptly-named Nintendo Switch 2 Pro Controller comes with some big upgrades including a better HD Rumble system, the dedicated C-Button for GameChat, and rear GL/GR buttons that can be mapped to any button you choose. It's a handy controller to add to your rotation, but it doesn't come cheap. It's list price is a whopping $89.

The TCL Tab 10 Nxtpaper 5G's display smoothly transitions from regular mode to color paper or ink paper, whether you're reading, scrolling on social media, watching videos, or playing a game. TCL's Nxtpaper technology isn't the same as E Ink, which uses electrophoretic technology to create a monochromatic image. Also: How to install iPadOS 26 right now (and which iPad models support it) Instead, Nxtpaper is a paper-like display that helps reduce eye strain and improves readability over traditional screens.

If you are in the market for a new Apple laptop, it can be confusing to choose the one that suits your needs. After all, the company recently released an all-new 14-inch base MacBook Pro powered by its latest M5 processor. It is more powerful than the $999 (currently $750) but not as formidable as the more expensive M4 Pro and M4 Max-powered machines.

The OmniBook 5 series occupies the mid-range of HP's consumer laptops for everyday use and the office, punctuated by fantastic battery life. The fits that description perfectly, with a roomy keyboard, a diverse range of configurations, and a very attractive $649 starting price. I tested the OmniBook 5 16-inch with the Intel Core Ultra 7 255H processor, and found it to be a reliable, practical laptop with a very efficient battery, particularly for a 16-inch.
