7 of the best budget products we saw at IFA 2024: compact projector, marathon earbuds and a turntable trio

Like the best hi-fi and tech showcases in the calendar, IFA is a chance for the biggest names in audio and home cinema to exhibit their latest products and technologies, from cutting-edge TV panels to new turntables or wireless speakers.

be they the hottest market releases or simply the products that eager punters are desperate to see in the flesh. With the likes of TCL, Samsung, Hisense, Technics and Panasonic in attendance, it's hard to resist the allure of the now-100-year-old showcase. 

This year's IFA, however, felt like one for the bargain hunters. That isn't to say that there weren't big-name brands or high-end launches on display to dazzle and impress us. Instead, many of the new products we witnessed came with real-world prices – from budget Bluetooth turntables, desktop speakers, numerous earbuds and a compact projector.
