ONE
LOGITECH K780 KEYBOARD
If you like a full-size keyboard when working at home, the Logitech K780 and Tab S7+ are a perfect match. Pairing with up to three devices, the K780 can switch between a tablet and computer, and it props up and angles the S7+ too. With Android, macOS and Windows layouts, it’s one keyboard to rule them all. R1 250 / raru.co.za

ANKER POWER EXPAND
SD cards, full-size USB ports, HDMI cables… with an Anker dongle, you can hook them all up to your Tab S7+. Fire up the DeX interface and you’ll feel like you’re using a desktop after connecting a monitor, USB mouse and keyboard, while pulling files from a camera’s card is infinitely faster than faffing with wireless transfer.

THREE
SAMSUNG TRAVEL ADAPTOR
With its 45W charging capabilities, you can fuel up the Tab S7+ in as little as 90 minutes, but there’s a catch: it ships with a puny 15W power brick. Really, Samsung? Taking over 4hrs to go from flat to full, that’s useless for anyone who’s short on time, making the 45W adaptor an annoyingly attractive add-on. R1 000 / samsung.com/za
1 GIMME A SECOND
The Samsung Galaxy Tab S7+ has a Second Screen feature for Windows computers. To find it, swipe your notifications menu from the top of the screen and swipe down again for quick toggles. Look for the option titled ‘Second screen’; tap it, and your device will become discoverable. On your computer, tap the speech bubble in the bottom right of the taskbar and select ‘Connect’. You’re in!

Garmin Epix Pro (Gen 2)
We’ve been wearing this Garmin for four months. It’s a huge, but hugely impressive, all-action premium smartwatch.
THE BEST IS SWEAT TO COME
Getting out and exercising in the opening months of the year can feel bleak, but you're not on your own: we've groaned and grunted on the latest training gear to help you achieve the fitness results you're looking for
SMART SPEAKER OF THE YEAR - SONOS MOVE 2
Sonos might not be the first name that springs to mind when you think of smart speakers, but with not one but two voice assistants on board - Amazon's Alexa and Sonos's own anonymous helper - there's no doubting the Move 2's built-in brain power.
ELECTRIC CAR OF THE YEAR - VOLVO C40 RECHARGE
The first Volvo in SA that was only available in an EV format, this crossover balances in-car features with its all-electric nature and delivers a pleasing meld of the power you'd expect from a car that costs over a million and range that makes filling a gas tank seem like the relic of a past left forgotten.
DRONE / ACTION CAM OF THE YEAR INSTA360 GO 3
If the goal of an action camera is to be as lightweight and portable as possible (all the better to be mounted on your bike, head, body, surfboard or big toe), then the tiny Insta360 Go 3 is the best one around.
CAMERA OF THE YEAR FUJIFILM X-T5
Smartphone cameras may be improving all the time, but they still have nothing on a tool built specifically for the job. And in a year of excellent camera releases, this all-rounder stood out for us.
IN-EAR HEADPHONES OF THE YEAR SONY WF-1000XM5
For several product generations now, Sony has hogged the top of the tree when it comes to active noise-cancelling true wireless headphones.
