HTC One M8

Beats is still charging top dollar for decent headphones, and CNET's Appliances reviewers are still finding the best large plug-in-able objects for your home. These are the products that earned top ratings this week...

Hoover Platinum Collection Linx Cordless Stick Vacuum

The Hoover Platinum Collection Linx Cordless Stick Vacuum isn't fancy, but it will clean your floors better than most of the other stick models we tested. Combine that with its reasonable price and you have one of our favorite vacuums to date.
