The Best Tech I Missed In 2025: The Leftovers
MrMobile reviews six overlooked 2025 gadgets including the Boox Palma 2 Pro, Nothing Ear 3’s case microphone, and Apple Vision Pro M5, with a kids-device security teardown by Shannon Morse.
- Boox Palma 2 Pro adds color e-ink and 5G to its pocket Android e-reader format, but costs $400–$430 with accessories.
- Nothing Ear 3’s standout feature is a microphone built into the case, not the buds, for cleaner call audio outdoors.
- Honor Magic V Flip 2 is China-exclusive, limiting western usefulness despite strong battery, Qi charging, and a Jimmy Choo collab finish.
- Apple Vision Pro M5 adds better display rendering and a dual knit headband, but friction of putting it on means MrMobile reaches for it only 5% of the time.
- Sharge DiskPro portable SSD integrates a built-in USB-C cable and a 4-device hub into a transparent enclosure.
- Luoba kids device ($37 on Amazon) has no cellular, GPS, or Bluetooth installed on board, making remote hacking impossible without physical access.
- Luoba’s micro SD card has no encryption — local access allows silent file replacement or full card cloning, per Shannon Morse’s teardown.
