Our favourite devices of 2025

2025 is nearly over (gasp!), so it is time to look again at the entire finest units we have seen to this point. On this episode, Engadget Deputy Editor Billy Steele joins Devindra to speak in regards to the highlights of the yr, which vary from the same old suspects (like Google’s Pixel and the iPhone 17 Professional), to surprises just like the Ninja Swirl. Additionally, we chat about one more super-thin telephone and the most recent sampler from Teenage Engineering.
