Smart Gadgets

The monsoons have arrived in India, and for most people, outdoor entertainment has been curtailed to some extent and restricted to watching movies, reading, listening to music, or focusing on indoor hobbies. We recommend four cutting-edge, smart and efficient products that will provide you seamless entertainment and joy right at home when it is pouring outside.

XGIMI HORIZON Pro Projector


Watching a movie in a theatre is not an easy experience during the monsoon with all the commuting hassles. But what if you could enjoy an immersive theatre experience in your own cosy space? With a resolution that is up to 3840x2160 p, a built-in AI optical sensor, an ultra-HD image and a DTS Studio Sound technology with two Harman Kardon 8W speakers, the HORIZON Pro offers an unbeatable home-theatre experience.

The plug-and-play projector can also be set up quickly and turned on in seconds. With the TÜV Rheinland certified for low blue light, you can enjoy a seamless watching experience even in dim light. Thanks to its MEMC frame interpolation technology, images, even in action sequences, do not flutter. It also has two HDMI and USB ports and LAN connections for added convenience.

There is also a port for plugging in your earphones. Integrating Google Play and Android TV allows you to access your favourite apps, and everything is easier with a Google Assistant button and a built-in Chromecast feature. The projector can customize your screen up to 45 degrees lateral projection, and its automatic keystone correction helps to position the image vertically and horizontally to a perfect aspect ratio.

The brightness of the environment does not affect the picture quality due to its upper bright projection technology. The built-in AI scales the images near your viewing area for uninterrupted entertainment. HORIZON Pro can also be used as a high-fidelity bluetooth speaker. With a lifespan of over ten years, this is one gizmo that provides lasting entertainment regardless of the weather.

But does the prospect of high cholesterol, fat, and calories in fried foods deter you from relishing them? Well, the Philips Airfryer is here with its twin-turbo star fat-removal technology that helps you fry, bake, grill, and roast healthily.
