Latest edition of dictionary needed

This seems like a simple enough task but I’m finding it actually tricky!

What is the latest/most recent copy of the Oxford or Collins dictionary available to buy (prefer paperback but hardback is fine)? And where can I buy it from?
On Amazon it appears people are getting the 7th Edition that was published in 2012. I’m looking for something as recent as possible - just out of sheer, silly preference, and imagining it might include the slang or terminology that’s emerged in the last 5yrs or so.

I would really like a tangible copy for the house. DS has a junior dictionary, but we’ve often found it didn’t have the word he was looking up. I have looked at using the app but I’d rather less time on the phone if possible.

Thanks in advance!

@clary
2019 - that’s much better!
