Just because it’s cold outside, it doesn’t mean you shouldn’t open your windows
Here in the UK, we’re a bit like bears or, for people of a certain age, the Blue Peter Tortoise: as soon as it gets cold, we lock up our homes, whack the heating up and hibernate until we have to go out or it gets warm enough to do so. That would seem to…
I can’t believe Google has solved this long-standing iPhone issue
I’ve dabbled in the world of Android for years – 2012’s HTC One XL was one of the first Android phones I truly fell in love with, even as everyone around me was fawning over the iPhone 4S. That’s all well and good – competition drives innovation, after all – but there were a few…
Forget the iPhone 17, these are the 4 phones I’m looking at over Black Friday
The shopping bonanza that is Black Friday is a little over a week away, and it could be the perfect time to bag yourself a bargain smartphone upgrade. While you might be tempted by Apple’s recent iPhone 17 collection – and who’d blame you, they’re new, shiny and in the case of the Pro models,…
Heat the person, not the house, and save money on heating bills
It’s often the way that in the search for modernity, older ways are dispensed with, but not always for the good. The truth is, a combination of the old and new is often better, and I’m a big proponent of the principle of heating the person, not the house. It’s a concept that Victorians would…
Samsung’s MovingStyle could be a hit, but price is the issue
Part of the fun aspect about visiting Samsung’s offices in Suwon, South Korea (aside from seeing South Korea, that is); is that you get an early look at products Samsung has planned for the coming year or get to see products that haven’t reached places such as the UK yet. The MovingStyle is one such…
OnePlus and Oppo can’t keep giving us the same phone in a different font
There’s no debating that the OnePlus 15 and Oppo Find X9 Pro were cut from the same cloth. While previous Oppo and OnePlus phones have shared a few characteristics, this year’s flagships look nearly identical, despite being quite different phones under the hood – a decision that I’m really struggling to understand. The familiar design…
Could Focal’s volcanic Mu-so Hekla spell the end of the soundbar?
We try not to discriminate when it comes to products. Whether it’s a £50 pair of headphones or a £5000 soundbar, our tastes are, well, broad. So when news arrived of a new entry in the Mu-so speaker range, our eyebrows arched not unlike Brazil manager Carlo Ancelotti’s furry face caterpillars. For one, this new…
These are the viral dishwasher hacks I’d avoid using
Not a day passes without someone pushing forward some new dishwasher hack, whether it’s something new and wild or just an old idea being recycled again. As someone who spends a lot of time with dishwashers for reviews, the hacks I’ve seen vary from the obvious to the outright dangerous and stupid. Here are some…
Motorola’s new Edge 70 is the right way to do an ultrathin phone
Following the hype surrounding the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge and iPhone Air, Motorola has unveiled its ultrathin smartphone alternative, the Edge 70 – and I think Motorola could be onto a winner here. The Edge 70 ticks all the ultra-slim boxes – it’s under 6mm thick, weighs less than 160g, and offers a premium, stylish…
Read this before you think about buying a TV on Black Friday
Black Friday is upon us. You might have noticed a trickle of deals surfacing in October and early November, but that will turn in a flood; and if you want to sort the wheat from chaff and the nuggets of good advice amongst the noise, Trusted Reviews is here to help. We’re focusing on TVs…
