Are traditional iPads a bit too cumbersome for your daily routine? The smaller, more approachable iPad mini may be right up your alley. At only 8.3 inches, it's compact enough to hold with just one hand.

Thanks to AirTags, I can track my bags from drop-off to the plane to the luggage carousel. And even when the worst happens, and my bags end up in Orlando when I'm in Michigan (true story), I know where they are and how to find them.

"First, we bought one Apple AirTag for my husband's wallet. Then we bought a second one for his car keys," said this repeat buyer. "Now, we have a four-pack, which is cheaper, for our golf bags and checked roller bags."

Do you prefer a more open-ear design without silicone earbuds but still want ANC? These AirPods 4 are for you. Personally, I find the open-ear design more comfortable, though you do sacrifice a bit in the noise-cancellation department compared to the AirPods Pro 2, which have silicone tips to fully isolate you from your surroundings. That said, the AirPods 4 allow you to remain aware of your surroundings during runs, walks or your commute.

Yahoo Senior Tech Writer Rick Broida describes the ANC as "surprisingly effective," saying it's "at least 80% as good as it is on the AirPods Pros." AirPods 4 with ANC also share the Pros' H2 chip, spatial audio, Personalized Volume, Conversation Awareness, Head Gestures and wireless charging case with speaker, to name just a few features.

If a sleek design is at the top of your tablet wishlist, the latest iPad Air is the perfect fit. Equipped with Apple's powerful M3 chip, it offers all-day battery life, a stunning 12-megapixel camera and a liquid retina display that makes movies and TV shows pop. 

"The screen resolution is really beautiful," wrote one impressed shopper. "It's lighter in weight than my old one and a little thinner. The camera takes gorgeous pictures."

There's something about editing photos on an iPad that feels closer to the darkroom than a desktop — the touchscreen turns it into a hands-on craft. If you plan on using your iPad for more than casual internet browsing, the iPad Pro may be worth the investment. This version has all-day battery life, a crystal-clear ultra Retina XDR display, and even Apple intelligence. If the 11-inch display is a bit too small for your needs, it also comes in a larger 13-inch display that's $200 off.

"This has gotta be one of the best tablets ever made in this world," one buyer proclaimed. "It feels so sleek and futuristic."

Looking for the best of the best? Speaking as someone who has used one every workday for the past 13 years, a MacBook Pro is likely exactly what you're looking for. This one was released just a few months ago and comes with some of the latest features, like Apple Intelligence and the advanced M4 chip. It also has a 14.2-inch Liquid Retina XDR display, one of the crispest of the entire MacBook lineup.

"This laptop will last a decade. The battery lasts forever. I do mild development work for my job, and this laptop is capable of handling all the Python code without issue," said this snake handler. "This is perfect for students, professionals and more."
