In this Reviews Recap , I've pulled together just our very favorites; the products that impressed us enough to score 4.5 or 5 stars in our tests.

This month, we called the formidably tough new GoPro Mission 1 Pro a "fantastic all-round vacation camera", fell in love with the Marshall
Stanmore IV speaker's "rumbling bass and amp-inspired aesthetic", and
declared the Samsung S95H "one of the best OLED TVs [we'd] ever tested"... despite its rather controversial design. We were also won over by
smartwatches from both ends of the price spectrum. The flashy Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 impressed our reviewer with its slimmed-down design, slick
apps, and intuitive UI we called it "a great option for hardcore
exercisers". The Amazfit Active 3 Premium comes in at a fraction of the
price, yet still manages to look great and offer a strong range of features. According to our tester, it's good enough to "hang with entries from the
major names in the industry".
