The AirPods Pro 2 are a fantastic upgrade and easily some of the best wireless earbuds I have ever tested – even when the high price is taken into account. Pros Excellent ANC Rich, warm sound Charging case gets some neat features Cons Many of the best features are iPhone and Mac only Availability UK RRP: £249 USA RRP: $249 Europe RRP: €199 Canada RRP: CA$329 Australia RRP: AU$399 Key Features Top-tier ANC The noise cancelling tech cuts out background noise fantastically well Multi device switching Pair with one Apple device and these buds will be available to use on all your others Clever Case The charging case has a new lanyard loop and a speaker for alerts Introduction After what seems like a lot of waiting, Apple has finally released the AirPods Pro 2 – an update to its incredibly popular pair of noise cancelling wireless earbuds .

An E Ink tablet that is a more open, and pretty compelling, alternative to the Kindle Scribe and ReMarkable tablets. That openness comes with compromises in battery life and ease of use, though, and it’s important not to expect too much from the colour screen. Pros Has a sharp colour E-Ink screen Good subscription-free note-taking skills Supports Android apps from Google Play Cons Low display saturation and contrast Pricey Poor battery life by e-reader standards Key Features Colour E Ink screen The lead lure for long-term e-reader fans is a colour E Ink screen seen as a holy grail for some. Google Play support This tablet has its own core software, but it can be augmented with downloads from Google Play. Up to 11-hour battery life Don’t comes expecting weeks of battery life as our testing suggests if you read roughly a page a minute around 11 hours is the maximum. Introduction The Onyx Boox Air 3 C is a big colour-screen e-reader and note-taking table...

And though the P60BT’s sound quality is enjoyable, it’s complicated by its ANC tuning and lack of bass depth. Pros Good comfort Excellent wireless performance Good audio (for the most part) Long battery life Cons ANC struggles with loud noises Lack of bass depth ANC tuning sharpens overall sound Key Features Battery life Up to 50 hours on a single charge Bluetooth Stream in SBC, AAC, aptX Low Latency, and aptX HD ANC Block out sounds with hybrid noise-cancelling system Introduction There hasn’t been much news from SoundMagic recently, but the last product I reviewed from the brand was an excellent pair of on-ears . So I’m hoping its first pair of ANC over-ears – the P60BT – reap similar results. Recently the budget headphone market has been inundated with noise-cancelling over...
