Premium tax

A heavy stainless steel $60 whistle that is only slightly louder than the $6 one.

Slim, light and polished foldable with a great stylus and tougher screen, though the Porsche branding is mostly cosmetic.

A polished but pointless wearable that does nothing a phone can't, costs as much as a high-end phone, and is slow.

A lovely kettle with silky pouring, but slow and very expensive; he gave it 7/10.

Pretty with a great picture, but the easel design has no real benefit and it is overpriced; scored 6/10.

Surprisingly big sound for its size, but harsh and not worth $1,000 for pure audio quality.

An invisible speaker that sounds merely okay and had buggy setup; only worth it if it must be hidden.

He thinks $50 for a bottle opener is absurd and wonders who would buy it.

Premium-feeling and realistic, but cabled, near $200 and overkill for Mario Kart.

Wooden spoon winner: old chip, weak camera, poor screen and battery at a full $429 price.

The fastest Android phone, with huge battery life, loud speakers and fast charging, but not enough to make an iPhone user switch.

Like the S23 with a bigger battery, but the nearly two-year-old Exynos 2200 chip makes $600 hard to justify.

A 65W charger where you pay for the design rather than anything futuristic, scored 5/10.

Annoyingly expensive for what it is, but the best balance board he has used for making standing more bearable.

It looks surprisingly good as it reflects light well, but at £25 he says you could just make your own.

Feels premium with silent buttons and instant triggers, but spending $400 won't make an average player any better.

Little more than a vinyl wrap on a normal Xbox, with the carry case the main extra, at a very high price.

A gold-plated crocodile leather case that is heavy, lacks MagSafe and protected the phone worse than the $1 case.

Thorough, outlandish packaging, but the phone itself is just plain black and hard to justify at $3,000.

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

Named the most timeless phone and a discounted sweet spot, better than the near-identical iPhone 14.

A fantastic phone he rotates with the Pixel 2 XL and iPhone 8 Plus, held back by fiddly portrait mode, a slow iris scanner and a weak speak…

Surprisingly tasteful and beautifully made, but it is just a normal iPhone at its core.

Hard to recommend on specs for the price, but premium and fantastic to use, and it fits in a shirt pocket.
