T3's retro-inspired Christmas gifts: perfect for those who cherish the past

Looking like a shrunk-down head unit of a classic Marshall tube amp, the Middleton carries all the charm of the company’s 60-year history into a portable speaker that yearns to be turned up to 11. Two tweeters, two woofers and twin radiators combine to make more than your average Bluetooth banger – this is made to sound heavy, whatever volume it’s at.

Pull out those old C90 mixtapes and cassingles, and prove to yourself that tapes weren’t quite as bad as you remember them. There’s something special about old-school analogue listening, but this doesn’t take away all mod cons: you can use Bluetooth ’phones, listen for 12 hours on its lithium battery and even make new mixes thanks to a line input.

If anyone tells you this isn’t retro, they’ve clearly not been paying attention: the modern flip phone only exists because of what went before, and there’s nothing more ’90s than theatrically snapping your handset shut at the end of a call. Flashy it may be but this is Razr in both name and spirit, and it might even make you feel young again. It also happens to be a superb phone.

An instant camera which doesn’t leave everything to chance, Leica’s hybrid design mixes basic digital photography with an internal printer that spits out pin-up memories which can be previewed on your phone before you commit them to paper. Simple to operate for that perfect retro feel, but decidedly skilled underneath, it’s what point-and-shoot is all about.
