I've tried a ton of great tech over the past two and a half years, but some gadgets stand out way more than others.
These are the 25 gadgets and accessories I rely on all the time, from cheap cables to Apple's latest iPad Pro.
All of this tech offers best-in-class performance, durability, and design.
I've been a technology journalist for more than three years, and in that time, I've gotten to try the latest and greatest gadgets from big-name companies to totally new startups. All the tech I've tried has had its merits, but some gadgets stand out from the rest.
Like Apple's latest iPad Pro, which is powerful enough to handle "real" computer tasks, like photo and audio editing. Or the single cable I use to charge my Lightning, Micro-USB, and USB-C accessories.
If you're looking for your next battery pack, car charger, soundbar, or game console, you'll find the ones that I keep coming back to over and over again below.
