Eufy Make E1 Review UK – Is This UV Printer Worth It?

Last updated: 12 October 2026

By Stiv · Design, technology and personal finance

This Eufy Make E1 review is the result of a full month with one of the most talked-about creative gadgets to land in the UK. The eufyMake E1 is a compact UV printer that prints directly onto cups, wood, metal, fabric, glass and over 300 other materials, with 3D texture effects up to 5 mm deep. It raised over $46 million on Kickstarter and is now shipping to UK buyers. But is the hype justified? We put it through its paces to find out.

The Sonos app update saga has been one of the most dramatic stories in consumer tech over the past two years. What started as a routine redesign in May 2024 spiralled into a full-blown crisis: broken features, a tanking share price, layoffs, and ultimately the departure of CEO Patrick Spence. Fast forward to 2026 and there's a new boss, new hardware, and yet another app overhaul on the horizon. Here's the full story of what went wrong, what's been fixed, and where things stand right now.

This Sonos Ace review covers Sonos's first ever pair of over-ear headphones, a product that launched with sky-high expectations and a price tag to match. At £449 RRP, the Ace dropped into one of the most competitive categories in consumer tech, going head-to-head with the Sony WH-1000XM5, Bose QuietComfort Ultra, and Apple AirPods Max. After spending extended time with them, we can say with confidence that the Ace nails some things brilliantly and fumbles others. Here's where they land.
