APPLE AIRPODS MAX: 59,900

Though it has christened them as 'Pro' models, Apple has long championed its top-end line of iPads as portable home entertainment devices that are ideal for discerning movie fans as well as creative professionals.

It even went so far as to describe its latest Apple iPad Pro 13-inch (M4) as a "home cinema in your hand" when it first unveiled the device.

While we have heard claims like this 100 times before from other brands, Apple is unique in that its hardware delivers the goods in the real world, with the iPad offering the best picture quality we have seen on a screen this size.

The only downside is that, while good enough for catching up on the latest episode of The Great Pottery Throwdown or Ru Paul's Drag Race All Stars, the tiny inbuilt speakers can't do justice to a decent movie - especially one with Dolby Atmos surround sound. Which is why we suggest this pairing of Apple's best premium iPad with its five-star wireless over-ears, the AirPods Max, to create a truly great portable home cinema system.

Why the AirPods specifically, rather than any other top headphones, such as our Product of the Year Award-winning Sony WH-1000XM5, you ask? It comes down to Apple's famous Walled Garden approach to designing systems; this helps the iPad Pro and AirPods Max perfectly complement one another - especially when they are used as a portable home cinema set-up.
