Top tech of the month: the best new gadgets we’ve tested for November 2026

• October 31, 2026

The past four weeks have been, frankly, a wild time for our product testers. Each month I put together a Reviews Recap of the gadgets that have impressed us most; the products that have endured our tough tests and come out with a score of 4.5 or 5 out of 5. And this month there’s a bumper crop, with dozens of great gadgets and gizmos to explore, across a variety of different product categories.

It won’t surprise you to see Apple amongst the standouts of the past month: the Duo won us over with its “exquisite engineering” and “vibrant, virtually crease-free screen”, but it was the Apple Watch Series 12 that earned perfect marks, with our tester dubbing it “the best mainline [Apple Watch] in years”.

We also reviewed several excellent laptops, some sublime speakers, and many a magnificent TV. If you’re not sure we’re branching out enough, we also gave the stamp of approval to an innovative, podless pod coffee machine and a microwave that moonlights as an air fryer.
