Welcome to the December 2025 edition of NXT. Our main feature is your no-nonsense roadmap to a smarter 2026—how phones, foldables, AI laptops, and wearables stack into one meaningful life upgrade. We cut past spec-chasing to show why Apple’s iPhone 17 Pro Max and Xiaomi/ vivo camera flagships make “shoot, share, done” a reality; how foldables like Magic V5 and tri-fold Mate XT finally feel daily-driver legit; and why AI ultrabooks turn cafés into full workstations.
We unpack gaming, too—Helios Neo 16s for value, Legion Go Gen 2 and Switch 2 for couch-to-commute freedom—and the sleeper hero: PRISM+ Roam Ultra 32, a 32-inch 4K screen you roll room-to-room. The theme: friction out, better living in.
Our Annual Gadget Awards Voting has closed! Stay tuned for the results in NXT’s January 2026 issue, and all voters who won the NXT subscription will be notified by email.
Under the Gear section, we have featured Bang & Olufsen Beosound Premiere, Canon EOS R6 Mark III with RF45mm F/1.2 STM lens, Lenovo ThinkStation PGX, Fujifilm X-T30 III, and Honor Magic8 pro.
Our NXT Han Yun has tested out the new iPhone 17. The Apple iPhone 17 is the new go-to companion for photography and everyday moments.
Under the Luxury section, we have featured the Ulysse Nardin Freak S Enamel, URWERK UR-10, Focal Diva Utopia, OMEGA Dark and Grey Speedmaster, Lecia M EV1, and Grado Signature S950.
Our Test section spotlights Apple’s iPad Pro (M5), OPPO’s Find X9 Pro, and the PRISM+ NanoBot Elite AI. We daily drove the M5 iPad Pro with Pencil Pro and an external 6K display to stress its tandem-OLED, M5 performance, and creator workflows.
Besides it, the Find X9 Pro faced low-light shoots, 200MP/3x telephoto trials, and weeklong battery checks. Rounding it out, the NanoBot Elite AI tackled a carpeted, pet-friendly flat—mapping speed, obstacle avoidance, hot-wash mop cycles, and real-world noise.
Lastly, in NXT Big Thing, we chart the quiet pivot: “metaverse” fades, the spatial internet hardens. Consumer worlds (Roblox, Fortnite, Meta’s ecosystem) become creator economies; enterprises double down on OpenUSD/glTF digital twins.
NXT is available at all major newsstands, bookstores, and the digital version is available to download at magzter.com
