5 days ago | techadvisor.com | Alex Walker-Todd

For Nintendo fans (myself included), the last couple of weeks have been a real rollercoaster. On 2 April, the company finally pulled the wraps off the long-awaited Nintendo Switch 2, behind which followed a torrent of specs, features and best of all, games. Despite shedding light on a few of the forthcoming console’s fundamentals, by the end of the Switch 2’s Nintendo Direct, I – and seemingly the rest of the gaming community – was left with far more questions than answers.

Despite shedding light on a few of the forthcoming console’s fundamentals, however, by the end of the Switch 2’s Nintendo Direct, I – and seemingly the rest of the gaming community – was left with far more questions than answers.

The Nothing Phone (2a) was a compelling entry that married Nothing's distinct aesthetic to a feature set and price point that few others could match. And now, a year on, we have the follow-up to this record-breaking mid-ranger – the Phone (3a), which I've been living with for this review.

(Image credit: Future | Alex Walker-Todd)The Wear OS landscape is a lot more streamlined than it once was, especially since Fossil stepped away from the space. In order to make sure you chose the best timepiece for your lifestyle, we're comparing two of the most prevalent players in the arena right now: the new OnePlus Watch 3 and Google's established Pixel Watch 3 line. Both run on the latest build of Wear OS but approach the modern smartwatch experience from different angles.

Mobile World Congress might be known for showcasing the latest smartphones and tablets, but RayNeo’s new Air 3S XR glasses were one of the most compelling products I trialled on the show floor. Direct successor to the Air 2S, which the company launched last August, the 3S look to improve on its predecessor in practically every way, while also hitting the market at a significantly lower price point; a trait that should actually render it one of the best value XR glasses in its category.

Xiaomi's latest everything-but-the-kitchen-sink uber-flagship comes with an even more capable Leica-supported camera than before, a stunning display, top-tier performance, and some useful AI tools. Underwhelming battery longevity was a surprise weakness, while Xiaomi still needs to work on its user experience. Availability in more markets would have been nice, too.
