Surprisingly good-sounding speaker that displays lyrics artistically, but not worth 2,600 unless you see it as art.

His favourite find, and it sounds shockingly good.

A fascinating player that lets you remix tracks live, but needing to upload music to their site and no Spotify support is a major catch.

A $3 speaker that sounds better than expected and beats his phone.

A $3 ear hook with open sound that is not immersive, better as a puzzle than an earphone.

Not great sounding, but at $5 it makes sense as a way to boost your phone's volume in the shower.

Easy to recommend on value thanks to great sound, a full feature set and a low price, despite a questionable design and a hype-heavy launch.

Gave it 4 out of 10 as a superpower; an in-mouth mic that works in extreme weather.

Very thin sleep earbuds that fade music out and track sleep, and he was a big fan on first impression despite average sound.

A record-thin speaker, 1.1cm, with surprisingly full sound and an eight hour battery.

Turns any object into a speaker using vibration and delivers surprising bass.

Wallet-sized earphones that are impressively slim, though he wondered about battery life.

Eighty dbrand-customised pairs were giveaway prizes.

Giant speakers shaped like earphones that he named product of the year and the favourite of the video.

The normal-sized earphones feel high quality and reassuring, and are well regarded in Japan.

Metal speaker with surprisingly good bass for its size, though he doubts the audiophile claim.

Open-ear design that stays put, sounds nice and lasts 12 to 16 hours, but he is unsure about the looks and there is no noise cancelling.

Purple earbuds bundled with the Olympic phone that he says are just the normal buds.

Sounds the same from any angle with decent bass, but he isn't blown away and wouldn't recommend paying £500.

A heavy, wild-looking Wish speaker that looked as crazy as pictured and worked shockingly well.

Haptic vest with six transducers that lets you feel music and games.

His day-to-day earphones and the benchmark here, with similar noise cancelling and a better button, but slightly weaker sound than the Noth…

Only mentioned as a £280 price comparison.

Mentioned only as being well behind the Nothing Ear (1) for sound.
