Netgear M1 mobile router

Working on the go is a lot easier with reliable wifi, and sending sensitive files over café connections is not advisable. This portable router delivers download speeds of up to 1 gigabit, depending on the Sim you put in, and can support up to 20 gadgets. It can charge your phone too.

Evoluent VerticalMouse D

I’m a big advocate of vertical mice to help reduce wrist strain and arm pain, and this wireless one from ergonomics specialists BakkerElkhuizen looks and feels like a premium piece of kit. You hold it in a “handshake” position, but sadly, it’s only suitable for right-handers.

Besides being a really stylish desk addition, this LED table lamp cuts down on blue light to improve sleep and reduce eye strain. The touch controls include three colour modes: cool white for the morning, neutral for the afternoon, and warm for winding down in the evening.
