And there are some big ticket items here, including the new Razer Blade gaming laptop, which has some big boots to fill given the brand's stellar predecessors, while Huawei has hit it out the park with its first foray into the open-ear headphone market, as the FreeArc have the best sound around. Also, Shark's TurboBlade fan has been something of a revelation to us, thanks to an ingenious design – read on to find out more.
1. TCL QM6K TV review
If you're looking for that sweet spot between affordability and picture quality, the QM6K mostly fits the bill and could be a contender as one the best TVs in this regard. Aside from the vibrant colors and impressive contrast, it also has quite a few clever features, including Dolby Vision IQ support, IMAX Enhanced, and Google voice assistant.
The QM6K is also a boon for gamers, given its high 144Hz refresh rate and support for both Nvidia G Sync and AMD FreeSync to eliminate screen tear. However, we didn't find the brightness levels or sound quality of the QM6K particularly impressive, but at this price, it's still worthy of inclusion on your shortlist.
For
- Great value
- Good color and contrast
- Straightforward UI
Against
The sound isn’t that greatJust average brightness
2. Huawei FreeArc review
Huawei is perhaps best known for its smartphones and tablets, but now its entered the open-ear headphone game, and what a debut it's made. We found the FreeArc offered superb sound - equal to the best open ear headphones, in fact - while fitting comfortably in our ears.
There were a few drawbacks we found, though, including its laborious app installation process on Android devices (owing to the various sanctions imposed on the brand here in the West), while the battery life wasn't great. It also misses out on ANC, but given its competitive price, the FreeArc are still impressive.
For
- Top-tier sound
- Competitive price
- Comfortable fit
Against
App download painsMiddling battery lifeWould benefit from ANC
3. HP OmniStudio X 31.5 review
We found the HP OmniStudio X 31.5 to be a versatile All-In-One (AIO) desktop PC with an impressive 4K display, rendering content with verve which, combined with its powerful GPU, makes it a great choice for creatives. The internal speakers and integrated webcam are pleasant additions, too.
However, it might not be the best all-in-one computer when it comes to powerhouse gaming performance, and the included mouse and keyboard aren't exactly awe-inspiring, but the HP OmniStudio X 31.5 is still a competent workhorse when it comes to using creative apps and executing everyday tasks.
For
- Awesome creative performance
- Lovely 4K display
- Fantastic design
- Great speakers, webcam and microphone
Against
Keyboard and mouse not greatLackluster gaming performance
4. Shark TurboBlade review
Summer is just around the corner, so now's a good time to think about how to keep cool. We tested Shark's new TurboBlade fan, which looks more than up to the task, featuring arms that pivot to blow blades of air anywhere you like.
We found the airflow powerful enough to cool rooms rapidly, while the vents offered plenty of adjustment. We were also impressed with the number of settings available, which include 10 different speeds, an oscillation control, and a timer. However, we thought it was a shame that no app exists for controlling the TurboBlade, and the price is quite steep, but it performs as well as the best fans around.
For
- Powerful airflow, fast cooling
- Innovative design
- Natural Breeze mode is great
- Oscillation and timer capabilities
- Vents highly adjustable
Against
No app controlBy-hand angle / vent adjustmentsA little largeCord a bit shortInvestment pricing
5. Razer Blade 16 (2025)
Razer's new gaming laptop, the Razer Blade 16 (2025), made quite an impression on us when we reviewed it. Its gaming performance is class-leading, thanks to the range of Nvidia RTX 5000 cards it can be configured with, while a few improvements over previous models bring it level with the best gaming laptops around right now.
The keyboard is one such upgrade, as the keys have more travel and operate more smoothly than before. There are no 4K display options for this year's model, though, but the QHD+ OLED screen was enough to blow us away. It commands an eye-watering price tag, but the Razer Blade 16 is the embodiment of portable gaming par excellence.
For
- Staggeringly good performance
- Stunning OLED QHD+ display
- Fantastic build quality
- New and improved keyboard
Against
Just ludicrously expensiveNo 4K display option
