description: The ever-growing Samsung Galaxy S range has produced another model.
encoded: The Samsung phone family is expanding once again with a new range of S devices: the S26, S26+ and S26 Ultra. Announced at Samsung's February Unpacked event, this latest roster promises to bring a whole new take on smartphone speed and display, with the introduction of specs like an upgraded AMOLED screen, a 31-hour battery life and new privacy features. As per usual with the Samsung S releases, the real treasure is the S26 Ultra, its top-of-the-range model which always pushes the boat out in terms of camera quality, speed and design. This year the S26 Ultra is slimmer and brighter than ever before, with four new colourways including Cobalt Violet, Black, White, and Sky Blue.

description: The iPhone 17e is the latest member of Apple's mid-range family.
encoded: Apple's work is never done as the tech giant has released yet another member of the popular iPhone 17 range. Last year we were up to our ears covering the release of the iPhone 17 Pro Max, iPhone 17 Air and standard iPhone 17. Now, the company has turned their attention to their smaller branch of mid-range phones with the release of the iPhone 17e. Following on from last year's iPhone 16e – which this author personally succumbed to in the Black Friday sales last year – the 17e is a lower-priced alternative for iPhone users. It offers a fast, smooth and high-definition display with a strong 48MP camera and plenty of battery life. The casing is also a sturdy aluminium and this year it comes in an exciting new Soft Pink Colourway. The only difference really is it lacks some of the premium features Apple likes to shout about, like 0.5x zoom and the Always-On Display. However, if that doesn't matter too much to you. Here's how and when you can buy the new iPhone 17e today. Buy iPhone 17e at John Lewis Buy iPhone 17e at Vodafone Jump to: Which UK retailers have the iPhone 17e in stock?

According to LEGO, the system uses three elements: the Smart Brick, Smart Minifigures and Smart Tags and includes more than 20 patented technologies, all designed to make the toys respond in real time.

encoded: Whatever you choose to watch on TV, and however you choose to watch it, it’s important that you have the right TV package for you. It’s worth thinking about what you want to watch on TV and what you can do without. Sky TV is the perfect example. Available in various bundles, such as Sky TV, Sky Stream, and Netflix bundle, there's so much to consider when you assemble your TV package. For one, you can customise it with additional channels. For sports fans, there's the option to add on Sky Sports for just £20 a month; Sky Kids which will set you back £8 a month for those of you with little ones, and Sky Cinema for movie buffs — an additional £10 a month, which will also get you a Paramount Plus subscription and two free Vue cinema tickets a month. All that, plus the original cost of £15 a month, you may notice the price in your basket going up quicker than you might like, so if you’re thinking about going elsewhere or changing providers, here are our best and cheaper alternatives to Sky. For more streaming service information, take a look at the Disney Plus price, as well as the best Sky Sports offers. You should also check out the Samsung S26 Ultra UK release date. Jump to: Best alternatives to Sky for live TV Best alternatives to Sky for entertainment Best alternatives to Sky for sports Best alternatives to Sky for the whole family Best alternatives to Sky for live TV Virgin Media Unlike some of the Sky TV alternatives, we’re about to show you, Virgin Media doesn’t offer a stand-alone TV-only package. The cheapest is the ‘M125 Broadband+ Flex’: M125 Fibre Broadband, Weekend Chatter and 100+ TV channels for £29.99 a month on an 24-month contract. For Wi-Fi, TV, and your home phone, £29.99 quid isn’t a bad deal, especially if you’re looking to move these three things over from Sky. However the price jumps up to £33.99 a month from April 2026. Sign up to Virgin Media from £29.99 a month Tip: Sky has an 18-month contract. If you're planning on switching, make sure you h…

Best budget printers 2026: Cheap home printers to buy for your office

description: If you’re after a decent home printer but you don’t have too much cash to spend, here are the best affordable printers available to buy in 2026.
encoded: Buying an affordable printer it can be confusing, so we've put together this round-up of the best budget printers and some tips on how to find an affordable printer which matches your needs. To start, it's helpful to determine what you consider to be affordable. This will depend on personal budget but it's also worth thinking about whether the printer you want to buy is cost-effective to run. Ink and toner cartridges are where printer companies make a large chunk of money, so consider how often you’ll hit that ‘Print’ button before opening your wallet. If you only print documents once every month or so, then picking up something with a low initial cost might be better, even if it’s not the most economical option out there – we're thinking about cost-per-page here. On the flip side, if you’re printing documents frequently, you’ll want a printer with the lowest possible cost-per-page that your budget can accommodate. Depending on your needs, you might also want to consider a laser printer instead of an inkjet. In our round-up below, we've picked printers which are around the £100 price mark. Some are cheaper and some are slightly more expensive, but the more expensive printers are cost-effective in the long run.

Spurred on by the advancements of AI, dozens of companies have spent this year breaking records across a range of gadgets, devices and consoles. Phone brands like Samsung and Apple have been on a mission to produce their thinnest model yet, while wearable tech is striving to be stronger and sturdier than ever. Even kids tech has got involved, with the new Toniebox audio player boasting an entirely new design and features. Having covered so much of the big tech moments this year – from the humble 16e to the ludicrously busy release of the Nintendo Switch 2 – I thought it was the right time to list them out and make a note of just how many upgrades we've seen in the last 12 months.

You can put the small pieces of tech in your handbag, suitcase, wallet or even pocket and then track the device as it moves in real-time.

Using Bluetooth and GPS, the tracking devices are able to relay their location back to your phone, laptop and tablet with almost pinpoint accuracy. One of the most popular of these trackers is the £35 Apple AirTag, now down to just £28. This tracker is favoured among travellers, but Apple AirTags only works with Apple products.

We like to blast house and hip-hop fast beat tracks when we’re working out, listen to jazz and blues on melancholic walks, and enjoy classical, chilled out music when we’re working from home. No matter where you are or what you’re listening to, you want the audio quality to be great, the tracks to transition seamlessly, and your favourite artists readily available to listen to. Other bonuses, which we now don’t think we could live without, include ad-free listening.
