₹42,999, vivo.com TThe VIVO V60 is positioned as a premium mid-segment smartphone that dares to take on the heavyweights by offering a feature set that feels every bit flagship-like. It’s arguably the best smartphone in its segment if the camera is your top priority. The VIVO V60 immediately impresses with its slim body and refined aesthetics. Despite housing a massive 6,500mAh battery, the phone does not feel bulky in hand. The curved design gives it a sleek profile, and the quad-curved display adds to the immersive experience while also making it stand out in terms of looks. It’s a head-turner for sure, blending elegance with practicality. The phone boasts a 6.77-inch quad-curved AMOLED panel with a 120Hz refresh rate. This display is one of the highlights of the device. Colors…

₹3,999, mivi.in The Mivi AI buds tout AI features to stand out, but they fall short of expectations. Marketed as an Android-only audio solution, they aim for great sound, noise cancellation, and comfort but don’t fully deliver. The build quality feels cheap, with fingerprint-prone plastic stems that are bulky enough to double as paperweights. The buds are comfortable for about an hour, but the stem design becomes bothersome after that. On the brighter side, audio quality and ANC are solid, at 60% volume with ANC on, isolation is effective. Transparency mode is passable but not impressive. The AI assistant, the buds’ main selling point, shines when it understands prompts, handling English, Tamil, Hindi, and Kannada well, outperforming Siri. However, manually switching languages is a hassle, and the assistant can be…

Last month, I attended an event where the standout was a gaming laptop that enabled 3D gaming without any accessories—the Lenovo Legion 9i. The sheer joy and convenience of this experience were unmatched. Nearly all AAA games are compatible with its glasses-free 3D viewing, powered by PureSight display at 2K resolution and eye-tracking technology (front cameras track your eyes to create the magic). Imagine this technology integrated into future full-fold phones from Lenovo’s sister brand, Motorola. Another highlight was the smartphone launches from Samsung, Google, and Apple. The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 impressed us the most, followed by the iPhone Air. Google’s offerings felt underwhelming, lacking any breakthrough products or technology. With the iPhone Air setting the stage, Apple seems poised to launch a foldable phone next year, while…

MOTOROLA RAZR 60 ULTRA ₹99,999, motorola.com There’s an argument to be made that Motorola’s turtle is finally bearing down on Samsung’s snoozing hare. Where the Korean giant’s flippers and folders have gotten thinner and incrementally neater, the Chinese-owned challenger has been toiling away to the point where its own collapsible phones might actually be as good a choice, if not slightly better. Basically everything on the 60 Ultra has seen an upgrade from the previous edition – the chipset, the screen, the camera, the battery, even the charging speed – and while the price has also been upgraded, as it were, it’s pretty difficult to argue that this isn’t a stronger phone than the now year-old Z Flip 6. Timing-wise, though, the Razr 60 Ultra has only a couple of…

ERGATTA ROWER Peloton proved to the world that indoor training can be fun, but WaterRower’s tie-in with fitness gamification expert Ergatta takes rowing to the next level. Not only is the handmade American Cherry Wood rower an exquisite piece of office furniture (that stands upright against a wall for storage), but the 17.2-inch high-definition touchscreen provides a portal to Ergatta’s gaming tools. Row harder to collect rings, compete against others online and generally forget that you are sweating buckets in a variety of short, sharp workouts that are guaranteed to build muscle, improve health and boost moods. ₹2,60,000, waterrower.com SNACK HACKS Tasty nutrition tech to fuel your success OPTIMAL HEALTH HYDROGEN WATER GENERATOR This flashy filter rids tap water of impurities and infuses it with hydrogen, which is reported to…

₹69,990, djiindiashop.com DJI’s first true 360 camera, the Osmo 360, signals a serious play in a category long dominated by action cams and VR specialists, marrying high-end capture with unusually polished software and AI tools for a creator-first workflow. At its core, Osmo 360 is about elevating immersion, native 8K panoramic capture. Native 8K 360 video with dual 1-inch-class sensors and square HDR pixel architecture designed specifically for panoramic capture, improving sensor utilization and efficiency. It delivers 120MP 360 photos (up to 16K), enabling ultra-detailed stills for high-resolution VR galleries and immersive web embeds. It has long-record endurance, up to 100 minutes of continuous 8K/30 capture thanks to improved cooling and processing, a rare feat in 360 bodies this compact. Another heighlight is its low-light strength from 2.4µm pixels, f/1.9…

₹25,999, plaid.ai The Plaud Note isn’t just another pocket recorder, it’s a purpose-built, AI-powered note-taking system that fuses sleek hardware with a genuinely capable app for transcription, summarization, and organization across work and life scenarios. Plaud Note is impressively slim and lightweight, with a premium build that feels more pro than gadget-y. It uses a dual MEMS mic array for meetings and memos, plus a vibration-conduction sensor for phone calls when mounted on a phone, capturing both sides of conversations clearly in supported situations. Battery life is a highlight: up to 30 hours of continuous recording and up to 60 days of standby are quoted. What sets Plaud apart is the software pipeline: one-press record; fast cloud sync; accurate, multi-speaker transcription; and AI generated summaries and mind maps tailored by…

₹19,990, plaud.ai In a sea of multipurpose gadgets, the Plaud NotePin stands out as a compact, wearable AI-powered voice recorder built for one job — capturing spoken conversations and instantly transforming them into structured, shareable notes. It’s discreet, reliable, and impressively capable for journalists, students, professionals, and creative thinkers alike. At just 51×21×11 mm and 16.6 g, the Plaud NotePin is smaller than most USB drives, making it almost unnoticeable when worn. You can attach it using its magnetic pin, clip, lanyard, or wristband, depending on the situation, from boardrooms to lecture halls. Inside are dual MEMS microphones for clear directional capture and 64 GB of onboard storage. While not studio-quality, recordings are consistently crisp enough for accurate transcription, even with multiple speakers. The battery life is a major selling…

₹35,000 bang-olufsen.com What’s really great about the Beosound A1 is how portable it is. Its 13.3cm diameter is smaller than, say, a dinner side plate; it’s about the size of a CD (remember those?) – but thicker, of course, at 4.6cm. That scale makes it so easy to carry around. You can pop it into a backpack side pocket with ease, or you can tie the carry handle around a bag, as needed, and you won’t impact on your storage situation at all. Just as with earlier models, that pearl-blasted anodised aluminium exterior can scuff. It attracts marks from contact with other objects, which is a given for a portable, and there’s no case included in the box – so it might not look pristine after even just a little…

CANYON ENDURACE: ONFLY ₹4,05,910, canyon.com A groundbreaking e-road bike that seamlessly blends performance, design, and innovation. At the heart of the Endurace:ONfly is its lightweight carbon frame, weighing in at 9.86 kg for the flagship SUB-10 model, which utilizes advanced composite materials to reduce frame weight without compromising strength. The integration of the TQ HPR40 drive system further enhances the bike’s performance, offering a discreet and efficient power boost when needed. The TQ HPR40 motor delivers up to 200W of power and 40Nm of torque, providing a smooth and natural riding experience. Unlike traditional e-road bikes, the Endurace:ONfly’s motor adapts to the rider’s pedaling style, ensuring consistent and intuitive assistance. This results in a ride that feels more like an extension of the rider’s own effort, rather than the intervention…

Should all tech come labelled with a ‘circularity’ score – an easily understood rating that tells you how good the product is at living up to the principles of the circular economy? In case you’re not familiar with the term, this is an ideal model of production and consumption that minimises waste and maximises the efficient use of resources, including by sharing, leasing, reusing, repairing, refurbishing and recycling existing materials and products to make them useful for as long as possible. The thought occurred to me recently while spending a few days with the new electric Renault 5. I found it easy to understand why it’s been voted 2025 Car of the Year. I’ve seen much less attention paid to its environmental credentials however, which is a pity. Renault claims…

The day has finally come, the Nintendo Switch 2 has arrived after months of rumours and speculation, and having played with one ahead of launch, we’re pleased to confirm that it’s every bit the pro-powered console many hoped. We’ve driven our way through Mario Kart World in both multi- and single-player modes, platformed around Donkey Kong Bananza, and had a hoot in Super Mario Party Jamboree’s Nintendo Switch 2 Edition version with mouse-controlled levels. We played them all and came out the other end knowing exactly why Nintendo has taken its sweet, merry time with the follow-up. This is no mere Switch reissue with a tweaked processor, this is a new proposition that should serve the Japanese gaming giant and its fans for the next five years or so. And…

₹16999, asics.co.in In 2015, when ASICS set out to combine street style with serious comfort technology, the GEL-QUANTUM series was born. The latest evolution is the 10th Anniversary edition - the ASICS GEL-QUANTUM 360 I takes things up a notch with an unmistakably modern silhouette, a full-length GEL midsole and design cues that make it as versatile for the gym as it is for everyday wear. We tested the GEL-QUANTUM 360 I during long urban walks, short training runs, and everyday errands in warm, humid city conditions. The shoe felt instantly comfortable out of the box, requiring no real break-in period. The first thing you notice is the cushioning ASICS’ iconic 360-degree Gel runs through the entire midsole, offering plush impact absorption with every step. The latest 10th anniversary version…

₹59,999, insta360india.com Insta360’s X5 pushes 360-degree capture into pro-grade territory, pairing big-sensor image quality with an AI-first workflow that feels built for the way modern creators shoot, share, and repurpose content. Aimed at adventure filmmakers, travel vloggers, FPV pilots, action-sports athletes, and social-first producers who need speed without sacrificing quality, the X5 is equally compelling for video production teams seeking a compact, reframable camera for dynamic B-roll and spatial storytelling. The X5’s dual 1/1.28-inch sensors deliver crisp 8K 360° video and high-resolution stills with noticeably better low-light performance, cleaner shadows, and improved dynamic range over prior generations, benefits that translate directly to night cityscapes, indoor venues, and forest trails at dusk. A replaceable lens design adds real-world resilience for mountain biking, skiing, surf, and travel, swap a scratched element instead…

₹1799, oneplus.in In a relatively crowded budget TWS space, the OnePlus Nord 3r packs quite a punch. It has near-perfect sound quality and a strong bass response, which makes listening to music a genuinely enjoyable experience while handling vocals and instrumental clarity with ease. The clarity of dialogue and voice detail makes them equally suitable for movie watching. The battery life is exceptional. You don’t need to keep recharging the buds; one full charge and you’re good to go for a few days. Couple that with excellent comfort, lightweight form factor, and strong build quality, and these could quickly become your ideal companion for longterm use. But, while almost flawless, there are still two misses worth noting. The first being the lack of ANC, something that immediate competitors have started…

₹57,500 dwarflab.com Is this the most ambitious smart telescope yet? No bigger than a thick hardcover book, the DwarfLab Dwarf III is an instant must-have smart telescope that can shoot the sun and moon, distant galaxies and nebula, and shoot photos and videos during the day. At its heart is a tiny motorised refractor telescope that collects light on a Sony image sensor; it’s operated solely by an app and has no eyepiece. The Dwarf III offers stargazers real-time images of objects that are otherwise impossible to see with the naked eye, from distant galaxies to nebulae (clouds of gas and dust), which are getting more difficult to see due to creeping light pollution. A tiny telescope it may be, but the Dwarf III has a laundry list of features,…
