one of my favorite items is computer vs one of my favorite items are computer

The correct phrase is 'one of my favorite items is computer.' In this case, 'one' is the subject of the sentence, so it should be followed by a singular verb 'is.' 'Items' is the object of the preposition 'of,' so it does not affect the verb form.
