101 GADGETS YOU CAN'T LIVE WITHOUT

Top tech that'll make you glad to get up every morning

- Alex Cox

#1 SAMSUNG GALAXY Z FOLD6

Samsung’s most interesting phone has gotten far better. It’s faster, the screen tech has been boosted, and the Fold’s frame – which has stayed pretty static through the previous iterations – has been trimmed down, squared off, and now makes this feel like a normal phone when folded in the hand. Read our verdict on p74. From £1,799, samsung.​com

#2 iPAD PRO (2024)

It’s always a treat when Apple readies a ‘tick’ release, and the iPad Pro happens to be the company’s thinnest-ever product. For a firm as visually obsessive as Apple, that might be enough. But the Ultra Retina display, super-powered M4 chip, connectivity upgrades and more make this a tablet like no other. From £999, apple.​com

#3 TCL P755K

Spend less and you won’t necessarily get less. TCL’s cut-price TV looks absolutely magnificent, with a bright and bold LED panel, a strong processor powering plenty of highend features like Dolby Vision and HDR10+, and a wide range of sizes – even the largest, a 75-inch beast, comes in at less than £700, which is just silly. From £250, tcl.​com

#4 ONEPLUS PAD 2

If you’re happy giving up a millimetre of thickness over the iPad Pro, you’ll probably also be happy at spending a fraction of its asking price on the second-gen OnePlus Pad. As far as Android tablets go, this is rather premium, perfect for multi-tasking through your work with your phone as a second screen and, of course, gaming after-hours. £449, oneplus.​com

#5 SONY BRAVIA 8
