We analyse the complete Apple range just in time for Christmas. Which computers, smartphones or headphones are the best deals at the moment? When are updates due?

Apple's range is getting wider and wider. Phones, watches, tablets, computers, laptops, all-in-ones - and the line-up is renewed every year. We take just under an hour to make our way through the entire jungle.

Which iPhone should you buy now? Is it worth picking up an iPad Pro? Where will there be an update next? And why are Apple's accessories so expensive? We'll tell you which devices you can put under the Christmas tree without hesitation and which you'd better keep your hands off.

Samuel Buchmann

Snapping and climbing. This aptly describes Samuel. His heart beats for photography, whether analogue or with an overpriced Hasselblad, at the price of which others buy a car. The cameras are used when travelling or on rock faces at dizzying heights. Naturally, he edits the images on a Mac. Because whether it's his headphones, smartphone or laptop, Samuel is deeply rooted in the garden of the nibbled apple.

Florian Bodoky

Data protection and audio issues are two of Florian's favourite topics. Whether cyberattacks, phishing emails or browser malware - Flo knows every recipe. His favourite way to prepare his meals is on his trusty MacBook. He doesn't get lost in the Windows jungle that often any more. Except when he wants to game "Counter-Strike". But even then, thanks to the Parallels software, he remains loyal to the bitten apple world. He also sometimes has a gripe about the performance of his football club. Because despite his adopted home of Winterthur, his heart still beats red and blue.

I've been tinkering with digital networks ever since I found out how to activate both telephone channels on the ISDN card for greater bandwidth.
