This week's picks
Our headline pick was the LG OLED M5, which pulls off the magic trick of a 4K OLED with genuinely no cables snaking to your wall. Pair it with the Razer Blade 16 (2025) and you have a setup that doesn't scream "gamer" in a client meeting. On the desk, the Logitech MX Master 4 is still the mouse to beat, and the Loupedeck Live S has quietly become our favorite streaming-and-editing control surface. The Lume Cube Studio Panel earned its spot by fitting cinema-grade output into a bag you'd actually carry. For your body and your pocket: the Oura Ring 4 finally tracks sleep accurately enough that we trust its advice, and the Nothing Phone (3) remains the Android flagship with the most personality per dollar.
What's coming up
Monitors first: the Samsung Odyssey OLED G9 lands this week, and we're specifically testing whether it solves the brightness problem that's dogged ultrawide OLEDs. Then audio — the Sonos Era 300 gets our spatial-audio stress test, and the Sony WH-1000XM6 shows up to defend the noise-cancelling crown. Fitness gets two heavy hitters. The Withings Body Scan is a bathroom scale running a six-lead ECG, which is either genius or absurd, and the Whoop 5.0 continues its quiet campaign to replace your coach. And for the handheld faithful, we're revisiting the Steam Deck OLED to see how it's aging now that the category has caught up — or tried to.
