Sign UpThe 2025 OnePlus Watch 3 as ever offers a quality device at a fairly reasonable $330 price ($300 launch pricing). It’s a big stainless steel 46mm Wear OS 5 smartwatch that’s compatible with Android phones. It uses the Snapdragon W5 processor with the new BES2800 MCU efficiency coprocessor. Battery life is phenomenal, the OLED LTPO VRR display is brighter and bigger this year and the bezel is titanium. It has a sapphire crystal, myriad health monitoring sensors, sleep tracking, exercise tracking for 100 activities and more.
The 2025 middle model among Samsung’s flagship Galaxy S series is perhaps our favorite as a nice balance of price, thinness, big screen OLED goodness and solid cameras. The Samsung Galaxy S25+ has a 6.7” QHD+ AMOLED display, the new Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite processor (same as in the S25 Ultra) and a host of AI features including Google Gemini. For those who prefer a small phone, there’s the very similar 6.2” S25 as well.

The $899 OnePlus 13 is the company’s (relatively) affordable flagship 5G Android phone for 2025. We also look at the even more affordable $599 OnePlus 13R.

Acer offers several different processor platforms in their Swift 14 laptop lineup, and in this review we look at the Acer Swift 14 AI SF14-61/T with the AMD Ryzen AI 9 365 (Zen 5) CPU and Radeon 880M graphics. That makes this the most potent version. With a $1,200 list price you get an aluminum chassis, FHD+ touch screen, 32GB RAM, a fast 1TB SSD and WiFi 7. It has ample ports despite the fairly slim and light 14” design.

Apple’s 2024 MacBook Pro 14” and 16” with the new M4 line of processors are significantly faster yet more efficient. We review the 14” MacBook Pro with the M4 Pro processor and Nano-texture display in this review. We benchmark and compare it with previous gen M3 MacBook Pro models and benchmark it against competing current powerful Windows laptops with AMD and Intel processors.

The 2024 edition of the Asus Zenbook S 14 (5406) with an Intel Core Ultra 7 258V CPU takes an already stunning thin and light 14” Ultrabook and makes it ever more gorgeous. It has a Ceramic infused aluminum lid, a 3K OLED touch screen and is only 13mm thick. The laptop has 32GB RAM, a 1TB SSD and WiFi 7. This CoPilot+ laptop with AI and NPU has Intel’s second generation Core Ultra CPU.

Google’s 2024 folding Android phone has a new aspect ratio, an even larger 8” inner OLED Super Actua flexible display, the new Tensor G4 processor with support for Gemini AI features and improved cameras. The 6.3” outer display and thickness are very similar to the (non-folding) Pixel 9 Pro, and that’s a good thing. It’s not awkwardly narrow like the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6, nor overly wide like the first gen Pixel Fold. 5G, WiFi 7, 16GB RAM and biometrics are standard.
