They’re expensive, so choose your targets wisely – or just throw caution to the wind and let the Digital Life Labs choose gizmos for you.

Gadgets are getting expensive, and meanwhile power bills are going up, interest rates are going up, groceries are going up, and all of that is adding up to one thing: we’ve got less money than ever to spend on the fun stuff.

The Ultra is Apple’s first watch with a half-decent battery life. And we mean that literally. It can last three days without a recharge, which is still only half of what one might hope for, but nevertheless a big improvement on what Apple has been dishing up. Not only do the Sennheiser Momentum 4 Wireless headphones have double the battery life of many of their competitors , they’re sublimely comfortable, reasonably easy to control, sound great and support desirable Bluetooth standards like aptX Adaptive and multipoint, which lets you connect them to two devices at the same time.

Yes, they’re a little bland to look at, but like most things in life, that’s nothing that can’t be fixed by the judicious application of stickers, giving rise to this cunning plan: get the Sennheiser pair for someone you love, a sticker maker for yourself, and include a personalised sticker in the box.It’s not the prettiest gift, but Satechi’s USB-C 4-Port GaN Charger will grow on the recipient.
