As 2025 approaches, we’re reviewing all our… reviews. Yes, everything we poked, prodded, and critiqued this year. Alongside inevitable smartphone and laptop upgrades (it was a particularly strong year for Pixel phones, while Apple continues to offer a premium phone experience on its pro iPhones), it was also a year of impressive drones and cameras, keeping Steve Dent very busy.
Unfortunately, we can’t test everything, so we try to balance devices from companies with a track record for making things folks buy and the weird, fascinating, doing-something-different products and services. We’ve included the best gaming laptop of 2024 and Apple’s continued strong form with its Apple Silicone-powered MacBooks.
Oh, and we included the other side of the coin: two of the worst products we tested. Surprise! They heavily feature AI.

2023 was the hottest year on record. This past year is on track to beat it. We did it, guys. The World Weather Attribution (WWA) released its annual “Extreme Weather” report showing how the record-breaking 34.34 Fahrenheit increase in man-made warming from the past year caused “unrelenting heatwaves, drought, wildfire, storms and floods.” The report recorded 219 events from 2024 that met its “trigger criteria” for identifying impactful weather events.
