T-Force Cardea A440 Pro Special Series SSD
If you’ve had a PS5 for a while, chances are you long ago filled up the internal hard drive space. You can expand using a specific kind of ultra-fast internal SSD card. One of the best is the A440 Pro (1TB, 2TB or 4TB). It has a read speed up to 7400 MB/s and a write speed of 7000 MB/s, which is as good as it gets. Although it drops a little bit in the 1TB version. Either way, it’s much faster than the standard PS5 hard drive. It’s also got a thin graphene heatsink, which is a must. Installation is easy, and it will also work in a PC!


iPad 2022
Apple has released new versions of its iPad and iPad Pro models, and there’s been some great improvements. Especially with the base iPad, which has a few firsts. That includes a USB-C charging and data port, and a 12MP back camera that can shoot 4K video, as well as take ultrawide photos. The front camera is 12MP, too. The neural engine has been bumped up to 16-cores, which is particularly great for photo editing. It’s thinner and lighter, yet the screen is from 10.2” to 10.9”. It also uses the A14 Bionic chip, which is faster once again. Very impressive.


iPad Pro 2022
As for the iPad Pro, it also sees a performance bump, which will be most noticed by people who do a lot of multitasking and creative work. Namely, it has the brand new M2 chip driving it, which is a beast that helps this device do the kind of serious video and photo rendering we see from high-end desktops. The 12.9” screen offers double the brightness at 1000 nits, as well as a 120Hz refresh rates for great gaming. Other notable features include a Thunderbolt 4 USB-C port, and a fast WiFi 6e connection.


My Little Morphée
After a big day of gaming, it can be really hard to calm your brain down and get to sleep. Which is frustrating when you have a big day coming up at sport or school. This little device can really help. It’s been built by meditation and sleep experts, with 200 combinations of natural sounds, music and meditations that you can set to run for 8 or 16 minutes. As it approaches the end, the music fades off, but by that time you will be happily asleep. We really like the retro design, too.


Suunto Peak 9 Pro
The Suunto Peak 9 Pro sports watch stands out thanks to its ability to stand any environment. From freezing cold, to extreme heat and even deep down in the ocean. If you’re an extreme sport nut, this device will never let you down. The Pro model greatly improves touchscreen responsiveness over its predecessor. It also connects to twice as many satellites, so the GPS tracking is excellent. In fact, steps, heartrate, timing and more are all tracked and presented wonderfully. Add an excellent battery and comfortable design, and you have a winner.


Fire Cube TV
If you’re looking for a way to have all your favourite TV apps in one, small, portable device – something you can take easily with you on holidays – then check out the new Fire Cube TV from Amazon. It’s twice as fast as its predecessor, with the octa-core 2GHz processer helping apps to quickly turn on. It handles all the latest visual and audio boosts, including 4K Ultra HD, Dolby Vision, HDR, Dolby Atmos and super resolution upscaling. With an HDMI-in port, you can run a console through it, and it even has Alexa and WiFi 6e support!
