We like: The advanced cameras
We don’t like: Battery life can vary
This is Google’s top phone from the end of 2022, and you can now pick it up for a steal. It has a big and bright screen and runs on a quick processor with 12GB of Ram. The camera system’s specifications are still impressive by 2024 standards with three lenses to adapt to any scene you want to shoot. You get sought-after editing software too.
We expect it to get security updates until October 2027, so you can keep it for a couple of years yet. It’s seeing a huge discount at Currys, so snap it up before they run out.

We like: The battery life
We don’t like: Disappointing speakers in our tests
This 2-in-1 laptop has a 13.3-inch touchscreen that can be flipped all the way around so the laptop can be used like a large tablet, or propped up on a desk.
Its Intel Core i5 processor, 8GB of Ram and a 256GB SSD mean it won’t falter if you have multiple web browser tabs and other programs open at the same time. It weighs just 1.14kg, which is very light for a 13-inch 2-in-1.

* Average price in the past six months: £219. Cheapest price in the past six months: £160
We like: It’s easy to use
We don’t like: The cameras are poor
This 11-inch tablet has a screen resolution of 1,200 x 1,920 pixels – so it’s around Full HD. The processor has eight cores and is supported by 4GB of Ram, which is about what we would expect from a tablet at this price.
The eight cores are designed for multitasking and to improve efficiency, as the tablet won’t use the more powerful, battery-intensive cores for simple processes.

* Average price in the past six months: £1,037. Cheapest price in the past six months: £867
We like: It’s easy to use
We don’t like: Lacks some accessibility settings
This high-end TV has plenty of gaming features and other nice-to-haves. There’s a microphone in the remote, so you can use Alexa, Google Assistant or LG’s own ThinQ voice assistant to control many aspects of the TV.
It has a 100/120Hz screen, plus you get a built-in twin-tuner PVR, so you can record from two channels at once and watch TV on another channel while recording. You need to connect a USB hard drive to take advantage of this feature, though.

* Average price in the past six months: £488. Cheapest price in the past six months: £299
We like: It’s versatile
We don’t like: It could be quieter during use
This cordless vac comes with a fully removable and washable dustbin, an LCD display that lets you adjust the five suction levels, check on battery status and receive maintenance alerts, a freestanding charging base and a telescopic wand, which can be extended between 455cm and 655cm.
Like most cordless vacs, it comes with a removable handheld helper for smaller jobs and tight corners around your home.
In the box you’ll find a pet tool, crevice tool, combination tool and flex tool for harder-to-reach areas; there’s also a spinning sweeper with disposable wet pads for mopping hard floors, and antibacterial reusable wet pads.

We like: It’s quiet
We don’t like: Don’t be swayed into buying it on account of the holiday mode: our tests of this feature on other models found it’s often not worth the hassle
This silver-coloured freestanding fridge freezer has five shelves in the fridge compartment, three of which can be adjusted to accommodate a few larger items. There are also three egg racks and four compartments in the fridge door. The freezer has three drawers and one ice-cube tray.
Settings include an economy setting and rapid cooling and freezing for when you’ve just introduced a large batch of food that needs to be chilled or frozen quickly.

We like: It’s particularly quiet
We don’t like: It’s fairly slow to heat up
This Morphy Richards basket-type air fryer has a 3-litre capacity that holds three to four portions, or 500g of chips. It can fry, bake, roast and grill using very little oil.
Manual dials allow you to set the temperature from 80°C to 200°C and the timer up to 30 minutes.
Although it doesn’t have built-in cord storage like many air fryers, the cord is detachable and can be packed into the appliance, which could save you vital cupboard space.

We like: It feels cold to lie on, it’s not too bouncy
We don’t like: Non-removable cover, no sleep trial
The Jay-Be 2000 Hybrid mattress includes an 18.5cm pocket spring core, with a 2.5cm mini pocket spring core above it and several layers of polyester webbing.
It’s 24cm deep, but the cover can’t be removed.
The term ‘hybrid’ is slightly confusing in the case of this mattress. Hybrid mattresses are usually a mix of pocket springs and foam layers, but there is no foam in this mattress.

It’s not on sale, but you can buy the double at John Lewis for £340, which is £25 cheaper than Argos and £20 cheaper than MattressOnline and MattressNextDay.

We like: The rinse program is decent
We don’t like: The programs are lengthy
This small-to-medium-sized 7kg-capacity washing machine has a fast 1,400rpm spin cycle.
There are 16 programs, such as cottons and synthetics, eco 40-60, delicates and faster washes – including a 30-minute wash, and one that takes on a full load in 45 minutes. There’s also a hygiene option, which blasts steam into the drum at the end of the cycle.

As well as telling you which products are best and which are lacking, we’ve also put together a list of the best and worst shops.
We’ve quizzed thousands of Which? members on their experiences of shopping in some of the country’s best-known stores and websites, as well as with lesser-known brands.
After crunching the numbers, we can reveal which retailers score highly for product quality, range and value for money. To see the retailers that impressed in our latest shopping survey, head to our extensive guide on the best and worst shops.
Some retailers use underhand tactics to pressure you into making a purchase.
These include anchor pricing (when products are on sale more often than they aren’t), pressure selling (‘30 people are viewing this right now!’) and dubious claims about the ‘before’ price of a product.
If you’re unsure how good a deal is, check our reviews for a selection of prices at different retailers or use a tool such as PriceRunner to compare prices across retailers.
It’s always a good idea to read reviews before you buy a product, but not all are trustworthy.
Some sellers incentivise people to post fake positive reviews to drown out genuine negative ones. If you’re in any doubt, check our expert guide on how to spot a fake review.
Whether you bought a product in-store or online, you still have rights under the Consumer Contract Regulations.
The regulations give you a 14-day window to return a non-faulty product, which begins on the day you receive your goods. Many retailers will give you longer than this, but it’s always best to check before you buy.
We’ve put together advice in our online returns guide on the additional rights you have when shopping online.
