Fevzi Turkalp, the Gadget Detective, joins Eddie Nestor on BBC Radio London to discuss the latest tech. This week; a new use for AI, determining if an email is real or a scam and how to spot them yourself.

Gadget of the Week 1 is the Logitech MX Master 3S. Currently selling at a reduced price due to the new model's imminent release, this is a superb mouse offering 8000 dpi tracking, very quiet buttons, MagSpeed scroll wheel, can control up to three devices and switch between them on the fly, and more. The score is 4.5 out of 5, more info in the show.

Gadget of the Week 2 is the Twelve South PowerBug. This wall charger offers 35watt charging over USB-C but also contains a MagSafe and Qi2 compatible wireless charger built in so it works like a stand. Scoring 3.5 out of 5, more in the show.

Gadget of the Week 3 is the Acasis 405 Pro MI. This blisteringly fast Thunderbolt enabled enclosure allows you to slot in an M.2 NVMe SSD of up to 8TB to expand the storage of your compatible device, such as an Apple Mac, much more affordably. Scoring 4.5 out of 5, more in the show.

Gadget of the Week 4 is Serif Affinity Photo 2 Suite. These iPad based alternatives to Adobe's software offer Photo 2, Publisher 2, and Designer 2 all for free currently. Details on how to claim these in the show, the score 4.5 out of 5
