A GOTY Contender
As I embarked on my initial venture into Prince of Persia:
TRULY SUPER 1440P
When I reviewed the GeForce RTX 4070 last year, I was impressed by its 1440p capabilities and to a certain extent, certain 4K situations too.
TIKTOK STARTER KIT
In the ever-expanding world of midrange smartphones, the Vivo V29 stands out as a device designed to cater specifically to the needs of live streamers and TikTok.
ERGONOMIC GAMING GOODNESS
The Razer Fujin Pro, despite what you might think or reason, is not quite the usual gaming chair.
AFFORDABLY SOLID
Announced earlier in 2023 with the Samsung Galaxy S23 FE, Samsung's Galaxy Buds FE are the most affordable entry in the company's true wireless earbuds lineup.
THAT'S NO MOON
The use of dedicated microphones on one's desktop has become more prevalent in recent years, as internet activities such as Zoom calls and live casting turn into norms rather than exceptions.
Redmi Note 12 Pro + 5G
Redmi is the true budget alternative to its parent brand's Xiaomi premium offerings, but it knows its buyers well.
Samsung Galaxy S23 FE
Samsung pares down the flagship Galaxy S series to bring us the Fan Edition variant, with the current model being the Samsung Galaxy S23 FE.
Tesla Model 3 (2023)
I didn't think Tesla could make the interiors of its cars anymore bare, but they've done it. When you enter the new upgraded Model 3, the first thing you notice is that the column stalks for the indicators, wipers, and gear shifter are all gone.
Samsung Galaxy S23 FE: Good Enough?
After a brief hiatus, Samsung is back in the budget-flagship arena with the Galaxy S23 FE.

If you want a clamshell foldable phone but don't want to shell out more than a thousand Singaporean dollars for one, there is one option available near us: Phantom V Flip 5G.
POCO F5 PRO
Poco is an interesting sub-brand by Xiaomi, where it took its low-price reputation from its parent brand but amped it up to 11 with a combination of high-end components and only putting things in that cater to 99% of phone users.
GOOGLE PIXEL 7A
Unlike its flagship-grade Pixels, the Google Pixel 7a distils Google's artificial intelligence powers into a midrange body. It's the ideal option for users who don't want to lose out on powerful software perks but don't see the need to have expensive or high-end hardware components.
RETURN OF THE DRAGON
The Honor Magic5 Pro stands as a technological marvel, boasting an impressive array of standout features.
Intel Core i9-14900K: BETTER WAIT FOR ARROW LAKE
As it stands, Intel's 14th Gen 'Raptor Lake Refresh' Core i914900K is a powerful but puzzling addition to the chip maker's line-up. Its capabilities are beyond question, but its practical application and appeal are significantly less clear-cut.
Sonic Dream Team - Another Fresh Spin
Apple Arcade's new exclusive, Sonic Dream Team, with just a dozen levels and a simple control scheme - a D-pad and two buttons - might initially seem modest.
Dyson 360 Vis Nav: POWERFUL SUCTION, WITH CAVEATS

Super Mario Bros. Wonder: Classic Reimagined
It is a rare occurrence to stumble upon a game that not only redefines the boundaries of its genre but also reinvigorates our love for video games.
Playstation 5 'Slim' & Digital Edition: STILL A GREAT CONSOLE BUT NOT THE PS5 UPGRADE YOU'RE LOOKING FOR

It's the gift-giving season, and we at HWM are often asked what the best gadget or device is to get for themselves or someone else. I get asked a lot about phones.
PRO-BABLY OVERKILL
2023 has proven to be a remarkable year for Apple, as they have not only refreshed their 14- and 16-inch MacBook Pros once, but twice.
FANTASTIC SOUND FOR EVERY ROOM
The older Sonos Move was launched some years ago, so it was an exercise in curiosity when the offer to test the newly updated Sonos Move 2 came around.
Not Quite A Yakuza
In the ever-changing landscape of Sega's Yakuza game series, the narrative thread has taken some unexpected turns, particularly with the transition from the beloved protagonist Kazuma Kiryu to the vibrant new lead, Ichiban Kasuga.
AI ROBOT EVOLUTION
Ecovacs Deebot X2 Omni
APPLE WATCH ULTRA 2 & SERIES 9
Apple's mastery in the smartwatch category has led to incremental updates, and this year's releases, the Apple Watch Ultra 2 and Series 9, continue this trend. While not revolutionary, there are subtle yet compelling features.
ALMOST A WET MOPPING DREAM
Dyson's first cordless mopping vacuum cleaner is finally here, in the form of the V12s Detect Slim Submarine. If you're feeling a sense of deja vu, I don't blame you because it is essentially an upgrade to the 2021 Dyson V12 Detect Slim.

The Watch6 series introduces two variants: the standard Watch6 with just a touch display and the Watch6 Classic with its signature rotating bezel.
