The WIRED 101

The 101 best consumer products in the world right now, as selected by WIRED's writers and editors.

Here at WIRED, we have a team of more than a dozen writers and editors whose job it is to help you make smarter decisions about what to buy. We review hundreds of products a year, judging each on its design, features, sustainability, and value. If you're shopping for a baby stroller, a smartwatch, a phone charger, a pickleball paddle, or an electric bike, we've got an expert who has tested all of them and can tell you, definitively, which one is right for you.

The WIRED 101 is our list of the absolute best products you can buy across every category we cover, sorted by activity. Everything here has been tested by our staff and judged to be exemplary. This list is always fresh; whenever something even better lands on our desks, we swap it in. We also make bigger updates for each season, so you're always able to shop for things you can start enjoying right now.

All products featured on WIRED are independently selected by our editors. However, we may receive compensation from retailers and/or from purchases of products through these links.
