TWO INSTA360 ACE PRO
Foldables are more delicate than traditional phones, so it's smart to have a hardy action cam for when the going gets ruggedy. The Insta360 Ace Pro offers ace low-light performance, a flip-out screen for easy vlogging and a smart AI chip that levels up HDR video capture. While the OnePlus Open has a killer camera, the Ace Pro is a proper specialist.
£430/insta360.com
THREE BOSE ULTRA OPEN EARBUDS
Expensive, no ANC, and the case doesn't even pack wireless charging... so why are Bose's new Ultra Open Earbuds a great pairing for the OnePlus Open? Because they're so comfortable you may forget you're wearing them, and they should stay on your ears whether you're jogging or headbanging. Pity about the price...

Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess - It's really not what you expect from a major publisher these days, but Capcom's curious blend of action, real-time strategy and tower defence is one of the most original games you'll play all year
It's really not what you expect from a major publisher these days, but Capcom's curious blend of action, real-time strategy and tower defence is one of the most original games you'll play all year.From its colourful costumes to a pastoral message of healing nature, Kunitsu-Gami is proudly Japanese in its inspirations. Your masked warrior is on a mission to help a divine maiden purge a mountain of an evil 'defilement'... but this is no Link/Zelda dynamic: you'll also rely on villagers to help you beat back monsters.

Cygni: All Guns Blazing

Scott Contessa Voltage eRide 910
