Google Home review Expert’s Rating Our Verdict The Google Home is the best all-round smart speaker you can get, offering a great balance of, price, design, sound quality and features. It answers all our questions, keeps us entertained and up to date, and even turns on and off our lights. It is quite literally one of the best and most exciting talking points our home has seen. Smart speakers are no longer a new product category, and most people are now familiar with the commands “Okay Google”, “Alexa” and “Hey Siri”....

Honor 8X review Expert’s Rating Pros Cons Our Verdict Though it costs £229.99 in the UK, the Honor 8X looks, feels and performs like a high-end smartphone in most respects. It features a gorgeous 6.5in FHD+ bezel-less display and an eye-catching glass and aluminium design that makes it stand out amongst the competition. It also offers high-end features like facial recognition, alongside the rear-facing fingerprint scanner, and although performance can be a little spotty in the most demanding 3D games, we’ve experienced very little in the way of lag in general use....

Huawei MediaPad M5 8.4 review Expert’s Rating Our Verdict As was our verdict on the MediaPad M3: the M5 is an above-average tablet which is a good alternative to Samsung’s Galaxy Tab range, and the iPad mini.

But if you’re after a cheaper tablet, the 2018 9....

iLife V8s review Expert’s Rating Our Verdict Chunky wheels and a large dust box make this one of the better robot vacuum cleaners we’ve seen. It’s best suited to hard floors with no roller bar to take care of long-pile carpet, but a simple mopping function adds to its appeal. It’s easy to control and set up cleaning schedules for each day of the week, but has no smart features in sight....

iPhone 7 review Expert’s Rating Our Verdict The iPhone 7 is an evolution of the 6S, so if you were expecting a revolution you’ll probably be slightly disappointed. However, aside from the underwhelming battery life, it is an excellent phone. It’s waterproof, has fantastic cameras and performance, and the new stereo speakers sound great. There’s now 32GB of storage as a minimum, which helps to mitigate the higher prices. If you have an iPhone 6s, it’s hard to justify upgrading (even for some people with a 6) but if you’re out of contract and want a small phone, it’s the best Apple has made yet....
