Ready to upgrade your tech game? We’ve rounded up the latest gadgets that are not only sleek but also packed with features to keep you ahead of the curve. From immersive speakers and high-performance phones to foldable marvels and vibrant tablets, here’s a look at the coolest tech you should consider adding to your collection.

Pocket-friendly yet profound

This updated TWS from Beats gives you a snug fit and will last you up to 36 hours of listening time. It also has Active Noise Cancelling. A minus: the physical buttons instead of touch controls.

Studio Buds +, Beats, ₹19,900

Get ’em Caribbean vibe

Marshall and streetwear imprint Patta have paid homage to Caribbean Soundsystem culture and collaborated for a portable speaker that will guarantee an immersive experience.

Emberton II Multi, Marshall X Patta, ₹15,900 approx.

Made for an audiophile

Dyson’s out with their second set of headphones sans the air purifier. We bet this one is going to be an audiophile’s dream come true.

OnTrac™headphones, Dyson, ₹45,000 approx.

Just another coveted piece

For those of you who are looking for that perfect phone for your next vacay, Honor’s got just the one for you—the Honor 200 Pro...it has partnered with Parisian portrait studio, Studio Harcourt to design a picture-perfect piece, literally. Of course, it’s got other features too—good battery life, fast charging, AI features, etc.

200 Pro, Honor, ₹57,999 onwards.

Always on the beat

Imagine a tab with crisp visuals and (wait for it) eight JBL® speakers—who would have thought, right? This definitely is created for the music lover.

Tab Plus, Lenovo, ₹21,999 onwards. 

Future forward

We’re expecting a multi-rear camera set-up for this one, and a bunch of AI-camera features as well including AI Eraser and the AI Ultra Clarity. Now, looks like we’re all set for the AI takeover.

13 Pro Series, Realme, ₹26,990 onwards.

Flip it coz it's cool

Millennials had their share of ‘cool’ with one of the early editions of this phone. Now, it’s time for Gen Z to shine with this one.

Razr+, Motorola, ₹79,990

Ready to fold

Come Aug 13, and we’ll get a clear idea of the specs but the Pixel 9 Pro Fold is Google’s first foldable Android phone. Talk about tapping into nostalgia...this brand sure knows to do that right.

Colour me pretty

From 50-megapixel primary rear camera to 6.6-inch Super AMOLED display, Dolby Atmos speakers and other such commendable features... what’s not to like!? And yes, fashion girls will be overwhelmed by the stunning hues of summer—Daybreak Blue, Moonlight Blue and Thunder Grey.

Galaxy M35 5G, Samsung, ₹19,999 onwards

It's power packed

Another flip from another brand—this one’s a clamshell foldable with Leica-Backed 50-Megapixel Dual Rear Cameras. Looks like 2024 is going to be the year of ‘small size, big impact’ in tech.

Mix Flip, Xiaomi, ₹69,300 onwards

Fine-tuned for more 

The brand’s latest upgrade comes with a bunch of improvements—Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chipset, the company’s exclusive six-speaker Omnibearing Sound system for hi-resolution and spatial audio, among others. We’re rooting for this one given the price.

Pad 2, OnePlus, ₹39,999
