Here at Men’s Health HQ, we trial a lot of tech. From the latest smartwatches and waterproof earbuds to next-gen sleep gadgets and recovery tools, if you’ve seen it, we’ve probably taken it for a lap of the block.
But we can be a sceptical bunch, too. After all, if there were half as many ‘game-changers’ as the marketing suggests, we’d all be elite athletes by now, right?
That said, some stuff does impress us. And over the past 12 months, we’ve been compiling a list of our favourite bits and pieces. Welcome to the 2025 instalment of the Men’s Health Tech Awards.
