WHAT: eufy Security Video Smart Lock WHY: If you’re still squinting through the curtains to see who’s at the door without betraying the fact you’re at home, you need to start thinking about a video doorbell – and why not go the whole hog with eufy’s super

smart lock device? Its AI Intelligent Detection will alert you as to whether it’s a human, pet or vehicle outside (with 99 per cent accuracy) via a powerful 2K camera, with Wide Dynamic Range for clear video on super-bright days and four infrared lights for superior night vision. Meanwhile, you’ll never be scrounging around the bottom of your bag for keys again: its fingerprint unlocking feature gets you inside in under 1.5 seconds. And if you forget to lock the door behind you when you leave, a geomagnetism sensor and gyroscope clocks the door’s position within a teeny tiny 0.75mm, and acts in seconds to secure your home. WHO: For the security-conscious homeowner who’s into ease of use, eufy’s Video Smart Lock will be a life-changer.

JB Hi-Fi.

WHAT: Motorola Razr 2022 5G 256GB (Satin Black) WHY: The pioneering device in fashion-tech of the ‘00s – and as culturally iconic of the era as Britney and Justin in matching denim – is back! However, the Motorola Razr has had quite a bit of work done, and is about to redefine a new generation. Flip open its compact design to reveal a beautifully smooth, full-sized OLED display – and with Flex View, you can prop it open on multiple angles so that it sits still while you take video calls

or capture footage. It also boasts the most advanced camera in a flip-phone (in parameters of sensor size, pixel size, aperture width, resolution, OIS and instant focus), and can do a whole bunch of things while it’s closed: take selfies, send messages, control your music playback, get directions, and a jeans-load more. WHO: Fanging to hear that satisfying clap when you hang up a call – or just into A+ quality and innovative tech within slick design? The 2022 Razr is for you!

WHAT: DJI Osmo Action 3 Standard Combo

WHAT: Daxys Lynx Step Through Electric Bike WHY: Cruise with total ease and style on the Daxys Lynx, the freshest electric bike out! Be it your gammy hip or your wide-leg pants that impede your ability to gymnastically mount a regular bike, the Lynx’s step-through frame will get you going in no time, while its super-simple single gear system means you just have to select your preferred level of pedal assistance before you’re off and racing. It’ll get you up to 25km/h, can handle 100kgs of rider, and gives you a two-to-three hour experience on a single charge (with an easily removeable battery for recharging), and its removeable mudguards and rear rack mean you have extra control over the aesthetics of your new wheels. WHO: Anyone who’s after the convenience of an electric bike without feeling like they have to master a jet’s cockpit will appreciate the accessibility and comfort of the sleek Lynx.

WHY: The DJI Osmo’s gobsmacking RockSteady 3.0 and HorizonSteady features mean you could be filming yourself biking down a rocky slope to perform a wobbly dirt jump, and your resulting video will be immersively perfect – footage can remain horizontally level, even through heavy bumps and 360° rotations. Drop resistant and hydrophobic via its screen and lens protection (they’re all made with Gorilla Glass, which is exactly as brawny as it sounds), it’s also the industry leader in fast-charge tech (it can be powered to 80 per cent in just 18 minutes!). Its full colour touchscreens intelligently adjust white balance and AE for super-accurate colours – even in usually

knotty lighting situations like underwater. Yes, she’ll go underwater alright – up to 16 metres! As for above sea level situations, you could take the Osmo to the top of Mt Everest, because it’ll record in temperatures as low as - 20°C. WHO: For the adventurer who wants top tech at a lower price point than the Osmo Adventure Combo, you’ll get everything you need to produce fabulous-quality footage without a couple of the extra gadgets.
