6 High-Tech Gadgets We're Loving Right Now

Minimal and modern shapes, streamlined and sleek designs, simple black and white palettes (and a touch of rose)€”these electronic objects fit within the most sophisticated spaces.

1. The Beat Goes On

The latest edition of the headphones created by Dr. Dre and Jimmy Iovine is here: noise-cancelling, over-the-ear Beats Solo 3 Wireless ($330). And this ear candy comes in the  sophisticated, millennial-friendly limited-edition colours of Shadow Grey and Porcelain Rose. indigo.ca

2. Picture Perfect

Samsung’s The Frame ($2,700) has high-tech heft with a slender picture-frame profile. And when not in use and set to art mode, this wall-mountable smart TV morphs into a canvas by displaying from a series of renowned artworks. bestbuy.ca

3. Off the Wall

The Bang and Olufsen Shape (from $6,000) appeals to more than one sense—sight and sound combine in this wall-mounted wireless speaker system. With up to 44 individual speakers, customizable groupings and integrated noise dampers, it’s nirvana for design-conscious music lovers. commercialelectronics.ca

4. Both Sides Now

Local all-things-aromatherapy company Saje has taken the alarm clock to a whole new level: an ultrasonic diffuser with dual tanks, dubbed East and West, for morning and night. Simply pre-set Aromatime ($190) to automatically diffuse both energizing rise-and-shine and rest-and-relax essential-oil blends. saje.com

5. Strike Back

The Propel Star Wars Speeder Bike Battling Quadcopter Drone ($230)—it’s a mouthful, and, yes, it combines two things any techie loves. With working battle cannons that engage with up to 12 other quadcopters and flying speeds that reach 35 mph, this is not your average out-of-the-box toy. bestbuy.ca
