Morphology

latest + tech

The noun phrase combines 'latest' (newest/up-to-date) with 'tech' (technology), so the meaning 'the most advanced or modern technology' is directly and compositionally derived from its parts. This adjective + noun pattern is transparent and cross-linguistically common, so a B1 learner who knows both words would readily understand the expression.

Etymology

Latest tech comes from a simple image: latest means the newest and tech means tools or machines, like the newest gadget in a shop window. So, latest tech is used to talk about the 'most advanced' technology available now.
