A cable organiser allows users to adjust cable length, and a clip holds the cable to clothing.

Essentially a miniature word processor, the Pomera on offer in our part of the world is just one of a line of such devices that has been available the land of the rising sun since 2008. It features a 6-inch eInk display hidden within a tri-fold keyboard complete with "generously sized" keys set in a Japanese layout.

Following months of rumours the latest OnePlus smartphone gets an official reveal-- the OnePlus 6, a handset with a 6.3-inch OLED display featuring, as many current flagship phones do, a notch at the top.

The OnePlus 6 shares other similarities with top-of-the-line smartphones apart from the notch. It also has an "all-glass" design with minimal bezels around the display, a OnePlus first. The display offers 2280 x 1080 resolution, while specs include a Snapdragon 845 processor, Adreno 630 graphics, up to 8GB RAM, and up to 256GB storage. Power comes through a 3300mAh battery with Dash Charge fast charging.

Connectivity includes a USB-C port, headphone jack, Bluetooth 5 and support for x2 nano-SIM cards. Inside the aforementioned notch is a 16MP camera with f/2.0 aperture, while the rear-facing dual-camera array has a primary 16MP sensor and optical image stabilisation, while the secondary camera has a 20MP sensor. Both cameras have an f/1.7 aperture, and can record 4K video at up to 60fps, as well as super slow-mo 240 and 480fps video at 720p.
