Most EDC enthusiasts are familiar with the few common formats – knives, screwdrivers, multitools, wallets, sometimes even stationery. A folding fan, on the other hand, isn’t ‘conventional EDC’, but the folks at Titaner have a way of turning it into something cool anyone would love to own. Titaner’s Titanium DIY Folding Fan feels like something straight out of an action hero’s kit—think Kitana from Mortal Kombat, but with a practical, everyday twist. While Kitana may wield her metal fans with deadly precision, the Fan 4.0 is not here to slice and dice. Instead, it blends elegance, craftsmanship, and utility into a piece of EDC gear that’s as refined as it is functional. Redesigned using titanium instead of bamboo wood, the Titanium DIY Folding Fan is a modernized version of the original EDC from ancient Asia. Equal parts a fan and a self-defense tool (if you know how to use it), the Titanium DIY Folding Fan (or Fan 4.0 as its creators call it) makes for a unique addition to your EDC collection, and is the kind that works for both men and women – especially given the heat-wave we’ve been having!

An EDC titanium folding fan might be niche, but the folks at Titaner are no strangers to the EDC industry. They’ve worked on 9 other successful EDC campaigns, so as a 10th campaign it’s perfect that they’re stepping beyond the boring multitools and working on something that has a little more panache. Simply put, the Fan 4.0 is a tool to beat the heat as well as other scenarios that may require potential beating. We don’t condone violence, but hey, the idea of defending yourself using just a folding fan sounds incredibly cool. The fan’s titanium build gives it robustness, making it a baton when closed. Use it to defend yourself as a striking tool, and when you’re feeling safe, fan away the sweat with your folding titanium fan. I won’t lie, that sounds absolutely wicked.

The Fan 4.0 brings a fresh, modern spin to the ancient art of folding fans, offering a distinct combination of tradition and innovation, past and future, and culture and purpose. Crafted with a titanium frame (known for its high strength-to-weight ratio), the fan is built to endure, yet it doesn’t sacrifice elegance in its quest for durability. The ribs, slimmed down to reduce weight, are diamond-shaped and chamfered to offer a more ergonomic grip, ensuring comfort whether you’re fanning yourself in the heat or showing off its impressive craftsmanship. Adding a touch of luxury, the ribs are inlaid with strips of natural mother-of-pearl, bringing a shimmering, oceanic sheen to the otherwise industrial look. These inlays, painstakingly set into the fan’s surface, add a traditional artistry that contrasts beautifully with the rugged titanium structure. The fan’s waterproof silk fabric—another nod to both beauty and practicality—keeps it lightweight, flexible, and impervious to moisture, ensuring it remains in top condition even after prolonged use. The combination of these elements—titanium, mother-of-pearl, and silk—creates a fan that is as much a tool as it is an accessory, marrying functionality with undeniable style.

Optimized center of gravity for a more comfortable grip.

Hidden fan nails for a comfortable grip.

If you’ve ever wrestled with a folding fan that was too tight or flopped around uselessly, you’ll appreciate the engineering at play here. The Fan 4.0 boasts a tool-free tension adjustment system that works without screws or requiring you to dig your nail into grooves to tighten or loosen the fan’s rotating joint. A simple turn of the pop-out T-shaped knob adjusts the tension to your liking, whether you prefer a crisp snap when opening or a more leisurely glide. And thanks to a clever design tweak that limits how much the T-shaped knob juts out, you won’t have to worry about over-rotating and losing the tension nail. Once you’re done adjusting, the knob slides back into its housing, sitting flush against the fan’s grip.

Of course, none of this would matter if the fan didn’t feel good in your hand. Traditional folding fans can be cumbersome, but Titaner took a different approach. The fan ribs have been slimmed down, making them lighter without compromising strength. This seemingly minor change makes a world of difference in usability without compromising on the fan’s overall experience. It still looks and feels like your traditional folding fan made from thinly cut sheets of bamboo. It’s probably marginally heavier than traditional fans, but the flipside is that while bamboo can break or even rot under moisture, titanium won’t. The balance and weight distribution are also finely tuned so you can use it comfortably for extended periods without any hand fatigue. Whether you’re in a humid area or even in dry heat, the titanium fan folds open gracefully, letting you fan yourself for some heat relief. The compact design means it fits right in your pocket so you don’t have to potentially leave the fan lying around anywhere – exposing it to direct sunlight which could make the titanium metal hot to touch. I mean, you wouldn’t leave any EDC out in broad daylight anyway, right?!

The Fan 4.0’s practicality goes beyond being just your traditional folding fan. Sure, it also doubles as a pretty cool fidget toy and conversation starter – but it holds a fair bit of potential as a self-defense tool too. I don’t condone violence here at all, but in emergencies, the closed Fan 4.0 is more than powerful enough to be used as a striking tool. The titanium base (where the pivot lies) can break through most types of glass, and can even be used to fend off attacks. Don’t expect any Mortal Kombat-style warfare though – Kitana’s weaponized fans are a different breed entirely.

Fan 4.0 isn’t just for collectors or those with a flair for the dramatic – it has a little something for everyone. It’s available in three sizes—9.2 inches, 11.8 inches, and 13.4 inches and weighs anywhere between 120.5 grams (4.2 ounces) and 237 grams (8.3 ounces). As far as designs go, you have 3 to choose from, ranging from a Sumi-e horse graphic to an ancient Chinese proverb and even a fluid-art pattern inspired by Van Gogh’s Starry Night. Whether you want something compact enough to fit in a pocket or prefer a larger fan with more presence, there’s an option for you. Starting at $305 on Kickstarter, this fan might raise eyebrows with its price tag, but it’s not about luxury for luxury’s sake. You’re not just buying a fan—you’re buying a piece of expertly crafted gear that combines ancient design with modern innovation. The Titaner Titanium DIY Folding Fan is a perfect example of how even the simplest tools can be reimagined and perfected for today’s world.

Five years ago Dave Logan designed what we called the ‘only bag you’ll ever need’… now he’s back with an even better redesign.

Logan’s bags (designed under the moniker Onli Travel) had one uniting design detail that made them spectacular – they were like the Power Rangers, independently capable, but also had the ability to unite and become better than the sum of their parts. Onli Travel’s latest design, dubbed the Trilogy, builds on that concept. Made of three distinct parts – a spinner (or a trolley bag), a tote, and a daypack – the Trilogy can be used independently as regular pieces of luggage, paired with one another to create unique combinations based on your need, or all joined together like a club-sandwich that lets you practically carry your life with you in one single cohesive unit.

Ask anyone who travels a lot what their secret to effectively carrying stuff is, and they’ll answer – modularity. It’s simple – one size never fits all, and if your bag is a standard bag that’s rigid in its offerings, it won’t help you. Different people have different needs, and sometimes those needs also change based on mood, scenario, and time of the day. A modular carrying solution is the best way give people what they want, sort of like having a smartphone where people can install the apps they need and not be stuck with the apps you want them to have. Logan’s Trilogy series tries to do that. The three bags are vastly different, made for different scenarios – but they come together when you need them to. Strutting across an airport with your luggage, the bags attach together so you can wheel them as one unit. Scared your laptop bag might get stolen? Zip it off and carry it on your back. Want to unfold everything for the TSA during a security check? The bags are easy to disassemble and lay flat. Boarded your plane late and now don’t have enough space in the stowaway area for your bag? Split them apart so they can jigsaw-piece their way into the overhead storage space. Want to work or watch a movie while flying, one of the bags can literally strap to the back of the seat in front of you, turning into a work-table or entertainment center. All this happens while the Trilogy keeps all your belongings safe, secure, and segregated. Every part of the Onli Travel Trilogy has purpose, and is designed flawlessly to fulfill that purpose… I can’t say that about many other carrying solutions.

Each of the Trilogy’s individual parts is in itself, a complete bag. The spinner, or the trolley case, is perfectly cabin-bag sized, but is spacious enough to carry your luggage comfortably. It’s designed to be expandable, should you need to carry more, and has a mild wedge-shaped profile that allows it to easily tuck under seats of airplanes, just in case the overhead cabins are full. The spinner comes with a fabric construction, but boasts a reinforced top so you can rest a backpack on it while walking through the airport, as well as reinforced sides so the spinner holds its shape remarkably well. On the inside, you have ample space for your stuff, and Onli Travels even has a compatible modular cube packing system for seamless organizing. There are pouches/pockets on the outside too, for storing easy-access belongings like important documents, an umbrella, or a bottle of water. To make carrying the spinner easy, it comes with handles on three sides… and if the spinner’s storage isn’t enough, let’s not forget that it lets you snap two extra bags to it – the daypack, and the tote.

The Expandable Tote and the Weekender Daypack are similar in format – but are designed for different purposes. The Daypack, as its name suggests, is for day-trips, while the tote is the perfect bag to have on yourself for work, commutes, or even stepping out to hit a cafe. The tote is styled to be carried on one shoulder, but can be worn as a backpack too. It’s big enough to comfortably fit a 17” laptop, has pockets on the front and side for storing multiple belongings, and has an expandable design that accommodates more just in case the existing storage isn’t enough. While traveling, the tote can be attached to a seat in front of you using a set of straps, and a zip-down shelf on the top gives you a small yet convenient tabletop surface that fits an iPad or a small tiffin box perfectly. Overall, the tote’s designed with waterproof fabric, has lockable zippers, and even boasts RFID protection against digital theft.

The Weekender Daypack is just as efficient as the Tote, but think of it as your bag for out-of-city trips. It comes with shoulder as well as sternum straps, has ample storage, boasts an expandable design, and even has underpack storage for items like a rolled-up sleeping bag, yoga mat, etc. The bag’s clamshell zippers allow it to open absolutely flat (perfect for TSA inspection), revealing the inner storage compartment that is big enough to house a 17” laptop comfortably, along with an iPad or tablet. The daypack also comes with its fair share of pockets for storing all your belongings, making it just the right bag for a quick getaway or day trip.

The beauty of these bags, regardless of their shape/size/ability, is that they can either work independently, or unite to create ‘super’ bags. Each bag can be attached to the other – so your day-pack can be zipped to your tote for a large shoulder-worn backpack, or to your spinner for a bulky carry-on that can easily be wheeled around everywhere. The tote can fasten to the spinner too, and if you want to join all three together, it’s entirely possible. That particular arrangement is ideal for making sure all your bags are together at all times, but when the going gets tough, each of the bag can separate out, giving you individual compact pieces of luggage that are a little more convenient to manage and access.

The Trilogy set comes in a choice between 3 colors – Black, Blue-Wing Teal, and a Rust-like Zinfandel. The ballistic nylon fabric used on the bags is tough, water-resistant, and can easily endure regular commutes or even rough airport handling. Onli even makes a Trilogy 8-piece packing cube set as an add-on which pairs perfectly with your 3 bags. These packing cubes are perfect for clothes, toiletries, shoes, dirty laundry, precious items, and even your tech gear like chargers, cables, etc. And if you’ve bought Onli Travel’s Revolution bags from its previous campaign, the packing cubes AND the Trilogy bags are backward compatible, allowing you to mix and match to create your perfect piece of luggage. The Trilogy Modular System ships globally starting in late November, so if you grab yours now, you might just have your bags arrive just before you go on holiday!

Barely the size and thickness of a single hash brown, the Nanobag Daypack might just be the thinnest, ultra-compact folding backpack ever made. Small enough to carry around with you in your pocket, the Nanobag Daypack folds open to become your traditional shoulder-worn backpack, fitting as many as 16 liters worth of stuff inside its full-scale design. It does so thanks to a unique high-performance fabric thinner than a human hair, but capable of folding in on itself in seconds without leaving air pockets. This means your entire backpack can compress down to a pocket-friendly size in seconds, disappearing like a magic trick

This isn’t the Nanobag’s first rodeo. Originally designed in 2017, the designers behind the bag have worked tirelessly on 7 different iterations, going from a tote bag in 2017 to a proper backpack in 2024, capable of carrying 66 lbs or 30 kilos worth of weight effortlessly. The designer duo behind the Nanobag, Ursus and Rune, have created quite the masterpiece. The nylon ripstop fabric used by the bag is half the thickness of a human hair, but is capable of taking on your everyday use. Armed with YKK zippers and bartack reinforcements, the Nanobag Daypack is just as capable as your regular backpack… it’s just thinner, lighter, and small enough to fit into your pocket after use. Think of it as the MacBook Air of backpacks.

“Every year, we consume up to 5 trillion plastic bags, placing an immense and unnecessary burden on our planet,” says Ursus-Mortimer Negenborn, one of the Nanobag’s creators. That’s 160,000 bags per second if you do the math… and there are no points for guessing how many of them end up being thrown away after use. The reason plastic bags are still so popular is because they’re lightweight, get the job done, and are therefore ridiculously convenient. If you’re the eco-conscious kind, you’ll probably carry your own reusable bag around instead of choose single-use plastic bags. Most people choose not to, because reusable bags are bulkier than plastic bags… so Ursus and Rune just decided to make a backpack that’s just as small and light as your average plastic bag.

The fabric only measures 0.05mm thick or half the width of a human hair.

The Nanobag Daypack features a YKK zipper for reliable operation, and is reinforced with bartack stitching on stress points.

The Nanobag Daypack’s secret sauce lies entirely in its supersoft diamond ripstop fabric. The softness allows the fabric to fold on itself incredibly compactly, eliminating air pockets, giving you a backpack that can go from fitting 16 liters worth of stuff to being small enough to fit into your pocket. The fabric measures a staggering 0.05mm thick (that’s half as thin as a human hair) but is durable enough to withstand regular use. Combined with bartack stitching and YKK zippers, the Nanobag Daypack can take on the role of a backpack, allowing you to carry books, groceries, clothes, or anything you’d casually use a backpack, sling, or tote for. Given its ridiculously compact size, it obviously doesn’t come with padding or compartments the way traditional laptop bags do – but then again, a laptop bag doesn’t fold down to the size smaller than your average wallet or flip phone. The straps are non-adjustable too, but then again, the bag comes in one universal size with wide straps that anyone can carry/wear comfortably.

Wide, balanced straps, provides a comfortable and even distribution of weight.

Using the Nanobag Daypack is just as convenient as you’d think. The bag unfolds in seconds and can be slung around your shoulders, with a main zipper that holds all your belongings inside. When empty, the Nanobag Daypack doesn’t need meticulous folding either – just casually fold down the backpack and tuck it into the tiny pouch it comes with. The entire process takes mere seconds too.

You can grab your Nanobag Daypack in as many as 12 prints featuring different patterns ranging from geometric to floral to camouflage or even psychedelic. If you like your backpack plain, you can grab the Nanobag Daypack in solid colors too. Each Nanobag Daypack comes in a single universal size, and even ships with a keychain loop so you can carry your entire ultracompact backpack around your keychain when you don’t need it. The Nanobag costs just $21 which includes free global shipping and for each bag sold, TipTop Things will plant a tree on your behalf.

Lawn maintenance often feels like a daunting task, especially when dealing with uneven terrains, dense grass, or expansive yards. The Lymow One robot mower introduces a new era of yard care, focusing on reliability, precision, and efficiency. Built with groundbreaking technology and robust construction, it aims to simplify lawn upkeep for big and challenging terrain.

Designer: Lymow

Click Here to Buy Now: $1899 $2999 ($1100 off). Hurry, only 21/470 left! Raised over $1,120,000.

The LyCut Trimmer System: Efficient and Versatile Cutting

At the heart of the Lymow One lies its patented LyCut trimmer system. This innovative system features a generous cutting width of 16 inches and an adjustable cutting height ranging from 1.2 to 4 inches, catering to various grass types and lengths. Departing from traditional cutting discs, it now employs dual plate mulching blades with high-speed fans for efficient clipping discharge, ensuring consistent and uninterrupted performance.

Operating at a formidable 6,000 RPM, the mower slices through grass efficiently, leaving a clean and even finish. Powered by a 300-watt motor with a peak output of 1,200 watts, the Lymow One is engineered to tackle challenging terrains and tough grass without compromising on performance.

Mastering Terrain with Tracked Treads

Robotic mowers often struggle with uneven landscapes and obstacles, but the Lymow One addresses these challenges head-on with its tracked treads. Inspired by tank tracks, these treads provide exceptional stability and traction, enabling the mower to navigate slopes as steep as 100% (45 degrees) and overcome obstacles up to two inches high.

A front-mounted, articulated mowing deck features a terrain-adaptive floating design, which delivers an excellent mowing finish across varied surfaces. This floating deck allows the mower to adjust to changing terrains, ensuring consistent contact and quality cutting. Additionally, the deck’s design makes it easy to maintain, minimizing the need for frequent adjustments or repairs while protecting the blades from potential damage during operation.

Precision Navigation with LySee Multi-Fusion Technology

A big aspect of the Lymow One is its advanced navigation system. The mower achieves centimeter-level accuracy during operation by combining RTK-GNSS localization with binocular VSLAM. This high level of precision eliminates the need for traditional boundary wires, streamlining the setup process and ensuring the mower remains within designated areas.

The multi-fusion sensor technology incorporates semantic recognition and depth perception, allowing the mower to intelligently navigate around obstacles such as trees, outdoor furniture, and even pets. Enhanced with ultrasonic sensors and bumper sensors, the Lymow One adeptly avoids collisions, promoting safe operation in complex environments.

User-Friendly Control with Smart App Integration

Managing lawn care is made effortless with the Lymow One’s companion smart app. Users can schedule mowing sessions, define no-go zones, and monitor the mower’s real-time progress directly from their devices. The app provides a comprehensive work log detailing all mowing activities and offering updates on the machine’s status.

Should the mower’s battery deplete during operation, it automatically returns to its charging base and resumes mowing from the exact point it left off once recharged. The inclusion of rain detection technology ensures that the mower retreats to its base during inclement weather, safeguarding both the machine and the lawn from potential damage.

Security features are also integrated into the app. The geo-fence feature sends immediate alerts in case of unauthorized movement or tampering, while GPS tracking allows users to monitor the mower’s location at all times, providing peace of mind against theft.

Built for Durability and Safety

Constructed with a one-piece aluminum alloy shell that is die-cast for enhanced resilience, the Lymow One is designed to withstand various weather conditions, including rain, heat, and rough terrain. Its IPX6 water-resistant rating ensures reliable performance even in less-than-ideal weather.

Safety is paramount in the Lymow One’s design. It features a patented blade fender that exceeds international safety standards, minimizing the risk of accidental contact with the blades. An instant blade stop mechanism halts blade movement immediately when the mower is turned off or receives a shutdown command. Additional safeguards are in place to protect children and pets, making it a family-friendly option for lawn care.

Powering the mower is a LiFePO4 battery, chosen for its safety, durability, and long cycle life of up to 1,500 recharge cycles. This battery provides up to three hours of operation per charge, allowing the mower to cover approximately 0.57 acres (2300 m²) per charge. With an estimated three charges per day, the mower can cover about 2 acres (7000 m²) of mowing area per day.

Embracing a New Standard in Lawn Maintenance

The Lymow One robot mower offers a comprehensive solution to common lawn care challenges. Its combination of the efficient LyCut dual-plated mulching system, terrain-conquering tracked treads, and precise LySee navigation technology reduces the manual effort and time traditionally required for yard maintenance.

Designed to handle a variety of landscapes—from flat lawns to uneven terrains dotted with obstacles—the Lymow One delivers consistent performance and reliability. Its smart features and outstanding mowing capacity make it a forward-thinking choice for those seeking a hands-off approach to lawn care.

You fill a glass from the tap, the water looks clear enough, and you take a sip without thinking twice. But do you really know what’s in that water? Hidden beneath its transparency are impurities you can’t always see—chemicals, metals, microorganisms, etc. We assume the tap is fine because it’s what we’ve always done. But why settle for “good enough” when you could have water that’s visibly, undeniably clean? That’s the idea behind Waterdrop’s ED01 Electric Water Filter Pitcher. It’s not just about filtration; it’s about transparency—literally. The water-purifying pitcher itself is crystal clear, so you see exactly what you’re pouring into your glass. No more guessing, no more second thoughts. And the best part? Being able to carry your ED01 around from room to room instead of having to walk to the kitchen or your wall-mounted purifier every single time you need a glass of water. Whether you’re working at your desk, lounging on the couch, or prepping a meal, this sleek pitcher follows you, offering fresh, purified water wherever you need it. Clean water, on your terms.

The Waterdrop ED01 is a remarkably portable water filter pitcher, designed to give you clear water wherever you go. The pitcher itself holds 3.5 liters (or 15 glasses worth) of water in it at any given point in time, with a one-touch dispenser that automatically filters and dispenses water directly into your bottle or glass. At 10.2 inches in height, it’s compact enough to even slide right into your fridge, giving you the added advantage of crisp, chilled drinking water at the push of a button.

Even though its transparent design is arguably its most eye-catching feature, the real beauty of the Waterdrop ED01 is what you don’t see—the advanced filtration happening behind the scenes. Sure, we all want clean water, but most of us don’t give a second thought to what’s actually in that water. With a single-button dispensing system, this pitcher does the heavy lifting of purifying for you on demand, removing bacteria, heavy metals, chemicals, and other contaminants you don’t want in your body. And it does so instantly, meaning you’re not just getting water that’s filtered—you’re getting water that’s as fresh as it can possibly be. Compare that to traditional gravity-fed systems, where the water can sit around for hours, potentially growing germs or losing its crisp taste.

Waterdrop’s electric filter pitchers provide instant filtration too, at a stunning 0.8 liters a minute compared to gravity water filters that take nearly 4x as long. All you do is hit the water drop icon on top and the ED01 gets to work. Water passes through a 5-micrometer filter that traps and removes over 30 harmful contaminants like chlorine, PFOA/PFOS, lead, benzene, mercury, while even trapping molecules that give some types of water a bad odor or taste. It doesn’t reduce the water’s TDS count, which you may want to take care of if you’ve got high-TDS tap water in your neighborhood – that’s where RO filtration systems are required, although RO systems are traditionally a lot bigger and bulkier than the ED01’s sleek water filter design.

The cartridge-based filters are easy to install and even swap out. Sort of like installing a big battery, the cylindrical filter cartridges slide in and slide out, making replacement a breeze. Each cartridge is good for up to 200 gallons of water or 1600 bottles, lasting anywhere between 4-6 months based on your water consumption. The ED01’s built-in battery has a 30-day life too, so you only ever need to recharge the thing once a month.

The ED01’s portable design and built-in handle mean you can carry your water purifier around with you – reducing your dependency on single-use water bottles. Whether you’re at home, at work, or out in nature, the ED01 has your drinking water needs sorted. Going on a camping trip? No need to haul around a bunch of bottled water when you can just bring the ED01 along and get fresh, filtered water from any available source. Living in a small apartment? The compact size won’t take up much counter space, and the clean, minimalist design ensures it won’t clash with your décor. The minimal, all-clear design adapts to your decor, and the compact form factor to your lifestyle, offering you the flexibility and freedom to get clean water wherever you are. You don’t realize how much you rely on something as simple as good, clean water until you have a product that makes it this easy to access.

For any pet parent, bath time is often the beginning of chaos. Unless you have a pet who obediently sits through their bath, the real challenge kicks in when your dripping wet cat or small dog dashes through the house, leaving a trail of wet paw prints and soaked furniture in their wake. You might have a towel ready, but drying hyperactive pets can feel like a battle beyond the bathing activity. Now sure, you could bust out a hairdryer and groom your little furry one (unless the sound of the hairdryer terrifies them), but the folks at PetSnowy may have designed a better alternative – the SMILE Dryer Box. Instead of struggling to keep your home dry and your pet calm, this unique dryer box offers a solution that promises to make bath time smoother for everyone involved. Imagine your pet comfortably seated in a cozy, transparent box, drying off without the high heat or noise of a traditional blow dryer. No more chasing them around the house. Just a calm, controlled drying experience that leaves your pet fluffier than ever, and your living room, blissfully dry.

The PetSnowy SMILE is essentially a small, enclosed drying box designed specifically for pets. Created to be highly efficient, safe, and comfortable, the PetSnowy SMILE uses a sophisticated drying system along with outlets to dry your pet while keeping the entire box ventilated throughout the process. Once your pet is placed inside, the Dual Brushless Crossflow Drying System circulates air from the bottom, creating a steady, gentle airflow that dries their fur without the need for harsh, high heat. Unlike traditional drying methods that can stress pets out, the SMILE dryer uses controlled airflow to keep your pet comfortable, reducing drying time while also preventing tangles and discomfort. A transparent glass casing allows your pet to stay aware of their surroundings, reducing anxiety, and the entire process is closely monitored by built-in LCD screens that display drying progress, temperature, and wind speed. With its compact size and thoughtful design, it’s like having a personal drying station that’s safer and more efficient than conventional alternatives. The entire system is designed to be shock-proof, and without the upper hood, the PetSnowy SMILE’s base transforms into a cat’s nest, allowing them to get acclimatized to it and feel relaxed while sitting in it.

Visually, the PetSnowy SMILE dryer looks almost like a pet kennel, albeit with a transparent exterior. This might seem like a small detail, but if you’ve ever tried to put a cat in an enclosed space, you’ll know how much they hate not being able to see what’s happening around them. With the clear tempered glass design, your pet can see their surroundings, allowing them to feel more at ease. The choice of material here is also incredibly practical. The glass is durable and scratch-resistant, so even the feistiest pets won’t cause damage. On top of that, the outer housing is designed with ample airflow to ensure your pet stays safe and comfortable while they dry, with no suffocating, stuffy enclosure to worry about.

The device comes built with a robust design that’s practically pet-proof. The high-quality tempered glass is scratch-resistant and made to last, while being unbreakable and generally safe for pets and you. The design also emphasizes safety, with a non-electrified upper housing that removes the risk of electric shock, so your pet stays safe no matter what… And if you’re the kind of person who values easy maintenance, you’ll appreciate the modular design that makes cleaning and upkeep a breeze. It’s easy to disassemble and clean, ensuring a hygienic environment for your pet every time they step in for a dry-off.

Powering the dryer is the Dual Brushless Crossflow Drying System (located at the bottom of the dryer), ensuring your pet dries quickly without the need for high heat, which can be uncomfortable or even harmful. High-velocity airflow circulates around your pet, cutting down drying time dramatically, making it particularly helpful for long-haired breeds that take forever to dry. And because this system doesn’t rely on extreme heat, it’s gentle enough for all coat types, keeping your pet cozy rather than stressed. Plus, no more soggy towels piling up or fur-filled blow dryers overheating—this setup gets the job done without the usual hassle.

More than simply drying, the SMILE box dryer creates a spa-like experience for your pet. Advanced Negative Ion Technology fluffs their fur up while reducing shedding. If your pet sheds like crazy (and most do), the negative ions help to separate and smooth each strand of fur, making it softer, fluffier, and much less likely to end up all over your floors and furniture. So, not only will your pet look and feel their best, but you’ll also find yourself doing less vacuuming and lint-brushing. In a way, it’s almost like sending your pet to a groomer, but in the comfort of your own home, and without the hefty price tag.

The PetSnowy SMILE box dryer is packed with features designed to make life easier for you, the pet parent. The dual LCD screens give you real-time updates on temperature, wind speed, and the drying stage, so you’re never in the dark about how things are going. If that wasn’t enough, the dryer even offers app support, allowing you to control settings remotely from your smartphone. You could step away to attend a meeting or quickly grab a snack while keeping an eye on your pet’s drying progress from another room (while also avoiding your pet trying to steal your snack!) When the cycle is done, you’ll get a notification on your phone.

Your pet may seem reticent at first, but with enough use, they’ll come to love the pampering experience… while also letting go of their post-bath stress, so to speak! Your pet gets a first-class grooming session, while you on the other hand, don’t have to deal with dripping pets tearing through your living room, or even endless fur-shedding. It’s a win-win if you ask me!

We have become so dependent on our electronic appliances and devices that we start to panic when the grid suddenly goes down. While solar power generators now offer a more sustainable alternative to the gasoline-chugging relics of the past, it’s a different story when you’re out in the wild with the sun nowhere to be seen. Of course, we can’t control the weather, but we can be prepared for any situation, including when things don’t go according to our perfect plans. Just because the sun isn’t around doesn’t mean you have to stress over the lack of power. With this ultra-portable 50W power generator, you can have the confidence and peace of mind to stay outdoors longer, thanks to the power of the all-present wind.

Solar energy isn’t the only renewable energy source available. In fact, while solar panels are more popular for residential or personal uses, wind power is considered to be more reliable for wide-scale industrial use. Unfortunately, conventional wind turbines are neither small nor portable, making them inconvenient to use in more common, everyday scenarios. That is exactly what Shine 2.0 fixes, harnessing the power of the wind to power your outdoor adventures while enjoying the conveniences of modern technologies in a compact package that’s just the size of a large water bottle.

Shine 2.0 can generate up to 50W of power day or night, whether it’s sunny, cloudy, foggy, or even rainy. Its USB-C PD port outputs up to 75W to fast charge, smartphones, eReaders, tablets, and more. It can also power 12V devices, including laptops, and drones. Worried about a dry spell ruining your outdoor fun? The Shine 2.0 can generate as well as store power in its internal 12,000 mAh battery so you can use the oblong-shaped power generator as a power bank even after the wind has died down. And because of the wind’s cubic relationship with power, when the wind is twice as strong, the Shine 2.0 can generate eight times more power as well.

Shine 2.0 is designed for versatility. Are some low structures getting in the way of your wind? Shine 2.0’s 6-foot mount accessory raises it high above potential obstructions to capture more wind and maximize power generation. By using Shine 2.0’s custom adapter accessory, you can even charge power stations from EcoFlow, Bluetti, Jackery, and others. Sealed and weatherproof with an IP54 rating, Shine 2.0 is ready to face any condition to help you enjoy the great outdoors or even provide emergency backup power during an outage.

New to this second-gen wind turbine generator is a Bluetooth-connected app that lets you see all the critical stats like wind speed and power output without even having to get close. Weighing only 3 lbs and small enough to be stashed in a backpack water bottle compartment, Shine 2.0 offers unbeatable value in providing power on the go, wherever and whenever you need it. With this sleek, compact, and ultra-portable wind turbine, you no longer need to stress over surviving a few days away from power outlets, allowing you to enjoy the liberating experience of generating power from the wind.

No more purifying your water and then needing to put it in the fridge to chill, or the microwave to warm up. The TOKIT AkuaPure T1 Ultra literally dispenses purified hot/cold water with the press of a button. It’s the kind of multitasking we can appreciate, helping you cut the dependence on extra appliances for just adjusting water temperature.

There was a time when phones just allowed you to make phone calls. Then they became portable. Then they allowed text messaging. Eventually we’ve gotten to a point where a phone can practically do anything while being small enough to fit in your pocket. Without being hyperbolic, the TOKIT AkuaPure T1 Ultra is one step forward in that direction for purifiers. Most water purifiers just clean your water for drinking purposes. The AkuaPure T1 Ultra does so too, with a rigorous 6-stage purification process… but it also does more. With an instant cooling and heating feature, the purifier also lets you make coffee or iced tea in seconds. No waiting hours for your fridge to chill the water, or minutes for your microwave to heat water up. Now that’s what I call good problem-solving.

Designer: TOKIT

Arguably the most impressive bit about the AkuaPure T1 Ultra is the one feature no other tabletop water purifier has – the ability to offer refreshingly cold water at 41°F alongside instant hot water courtesy its 1600W thick-film heating element. Users can select from six preset temperatures, ranging from 41°F to 210°F, allowing quick preparation of beverages in as little as three seconds. Whether you need a cold glass of water or a hot cup of tea, this device is built for versatility. The entire process takes just 3 seconds, whether it’s heating or chilling your water. Separate pipes for hot and cold water ensure ‘taste and temperature integrity’, according to the TOKIT team.

The heating and cooling may be impressive (and they are), but ultimately it’s the purification that counts, right? To that end, the AkuaPure T1 Ultra’s 6-stage reverse osmosis (RO) filtration system is pretty much state-of-the-art. This system achieves a filtration accuracy of up to 0.0001μm, effectively removing 99.99% of contaminants, including antibiotics, heavy metals, bacteria, and organic matter. The addition of activated carbon from Sri Lankan coconut shells enhances water taste, further elevating the drinking experience. With NSF/ANSI 58 and 42 certification, the AkuaPure T1 Ultra meets stringent U.S. standards for reducing total dissolved solids (TDS), chlorine, and other impurities, ensuring a cleaner, healthier drinking experience. Moreover, the water gets UV sterilization treatment too. Equipped with two UV germicidal lamps, the device is engineered to inactivate bacteria and viruses by destroying their molecular structure.

All the features sit within a sleek tabletop design that’s portable (to a degree) and doesn’t need plumbing or being bolted into a wall. The AkuaPure T1 Ultra has the demeanor of a modern coffee maker, with its vertical design and a dispensing area for you to place your cup or glass. A display on front guides you through the heating and cooling presets, while a real-time TDS display lets users monitor water quality at a glance, informing you when it’s time to change the purifier’s replaceable filters. A child safety lock feature ensures that hot water dispensing cannot be accidentally activated, a nifty and practical solution for families with young children.

The AkuaPure T1 Ultra comes in a single space-grey metal finish with a touch-sensitive display on the front and a 4-liter water reservoir at the back that needs to be periodically refilled. You can use any kind of water with the AkuaPure T1 Ultra, as TOKIT vouches for the quality of its filtration system, following years of R&D in the space and having carved its name as an indispensable water purification expert. In fact, the purifier also has its own automatic self-cleaning function that kicks in periodically to flush out its filters, ensuring that you only drink the freshest water… hot or cold.

Every year, we behold innovative designs and technologies blow our minds. But once the novelty and awe have worn off, we’re left asking whether these made any meaningful impact in human lives. For 100 years now, the annual IFA show has been putting such products and inventions that promise groundbreaking improvements to the way we cook, the way we clean, the way we have fun, and the way we live. This year, the organization isn’t just reframing its brand but also putting a spotlight on the role these designs play in upgrading everyone’s lives. Among these, there are definitely a notable few that stand above the rest in how they make innovation available for all. Without further ado, here are Yanko Design’s top picks for IFA 2024.

Narwal Freo Z Ultra Robot Cleaner

So many products these days boast about their AI capabilities, but few actually answer the most important question: what can it do to improve people’s quality of life? The Narwal Freo Z Ultra gives a clear answer and delivers it in a design that seamlessly blends into your home instead of standing out like a sore thumb. It respects your space, adding aesthetic value you might not have come to expect from such an advanced showcase of AI technology.

Designer: Narwal

This sleek robot cleaner doesn’t just navigate your home, it also understands it. It can identify the kind of dirt it faces and apply the necessary cleaning strategy to get the job done. It sees your sleeping pet and respects its space, coming back later to check if it has moved away before starting to clean its area. And it does all these without you having to lift a finger. At the same time, you still have total control, from the privacy of your data to the automation made possible with its integration with smart home platforms and smart assistants.

It’s also smart about keeping you safe when it does come time for you to manually interact with it. It sanitizes not just the mop and water but also the dust bin, ensuring a hygienic environment at every turn. More than just the convenience of having clean floors all the time, the Narwal Freo Z Ultra offers homeowners stress-free living and more time to spend on the more important things in life.

Hisense CanvasTV

The Hisense CanvasTV 4K QLED brings art and entertainment together, transforming your living space into a captivating gallery. Its sleek, minimalist design, paired with the UltraSlim Wall Mount, allows it to hang flush against the wall, seamlessly blending with your decor. When not in use as a TV, it becomes a stunning display for artwork or personal photos through Art Mode, with a low-reflection Hi-Matte Display that ensures your visuals remain crisp and glare-free, regardless of lighting conditions.

Designer: Hisense

The vibrant 4K QLED display sets a new standard for visual quality, offering an expansive color range through Quantum Dot technology that produces over a billion shades. Every image, from digital art to your favorite shows, bursts with vivid detail and realism. The built-in RGB light sensor adapts the screen’s brightness and color temperature in real time, ensuring a seamless and natural viewing experience that adjusts to your environment, whether day or night.

For those seeking more than a TV, the CanvasTV enriches your experience with multi-channel surround sound, enveloping you in movies, music, or games. Gamers will appreciate the 144Hz Game Mode PRO, which delivers smooth, lag-free performance through features like AMD FreeSync Premium and Auto Low Latency Mode, ensuring responsive and immersive gameplay.

To add an extra layer of interaction, Hisense’s Motion Detector powers the screen only when you’re nearby, bringing art to life while conserving energy. This thoughtful design makes the CanvasTV not only a centerpiece for your home but also an eco-friendly, functional solution that enhances any living space.

ESR 3-in-1 MagSafe Charger with Qi2 and CryoBoost

With batteries remaining the bottleneck in smartphone innovation, it’s up to manufacturers of charging accessories to push the envelope and deliver a better user experience. Wireless charging technologies like Apple MagSafe and the new Qi2 offer freedom from tangling cables, but they also bring their own set of problems, particularly when it comes to heat. The hotter the charger and the phone get, the slower and longer the charging takes.

Designer: ESR

ESR fixes that problem with its CryoBoost technology, using a patented duct design and a specialized fan to keep the back of your phone cool and keep the charging speed stable and fast. Unlike other wireless chargers with fans that simply lower the charger’s temperature and rely on natural heat dissipation to keep the phone cool, the ESR 3-in-1 MagSafe Charger with Qi2 and CryBoost directs airflow directly to the back of the phone, preventing condensation that could damage the phone in the process.

The result isn’t just a literally cool charger and phone but a faster wireless charging experience as well. An iPhone 15 Pro Max can charge to full in just 2 hours, 30 minutes faster than other Qi2 chargers. Even the Apple-certified 5W fast-charging for the Apple Watch charger juices up an Apple Watch Ultra four times faster than typical 2.5W chargers, getting it to 100% in just 1 hour and 40 minutes. With the ESR 3-in-1 MagSafe Charger with Qi2 and CryoBoost, you can enjoy the flexibility of wireless charging at full speed, without having to worry about the safety and health of your phone.

Govee Star Light Projector Aurora

Smart lighting doesn’t always have to be flashy, blinding, or fast. Sometimes, you just want to have a more calming atmosphere in your home, and what better inspiration can there be than the enchanting Aurora that flows across night skies? Capturing this magical imagery, Govee utilized its LED expertise to create the Star Light Projector (Aurora) and bring the magic of the night sky to your room.

Designer: Govee

A unique dual lamp bead technology allows the projector to display a stunning and expansive 650-square-foot projection with a wide variety of colors and intricate patterns. These patterns include calming waves mimicking the play of light reflected off an ocean surface, twinkling lights that inspire awe, and even vibrant squiggly strips of color to kick off a party. With 16 million colors and over 50 preset scenes, as well as a built-in speaker with 16 preset white noises, this discreet projector can cover a wide range of occasions and moods, from relaxing night lights for dreamy slumber to dazzling kaleidoscopic displays for a jovial get-together.

Despite its more focused function, the Govee Star Light Projector (Aurora) has all the smarts that other Govee products offer, including Matter smart home compatibility and voice control through Google Home and Amazon Alexa. It also has a Smart Sleep Mode so that it will gradually dim its lights and play soothing sounds to lull you to sleep. It’s a great smart lighting companion, whether you’re aiming to paint the night sky in your kid’s room or create a different mesmerizing light show on your wall each night.

Beatbot iSkim Ultra Robot Pool Cleaner

The Beatbot iSkim Ultra has been named by Yanko Design as the best robotic pool skimmer at IFA 2024, praised for its forward-thinking approach to pool maintenance. Its solar-powered design combines sleek aesthetics with practical, energy-efficient operation. Weighing just 16.98 lbs, it adapts to a variety of pool shapes and sizes, offering a hassle-free solution for pool owners who want to keep their water surface clear without the constant need for charging or manual effort.

Designer: Beatbot

The iSkim Ultra’s advanced seven-motor system, featuring dual-side brushes, a large front roller brush, and a peristaltic pump motor, delivers precise skimming performance. Equipped with Beatbot’s AI-driven path optimization and 20 integrated sensors, including tri-ultrasonic technology, it efficiently handles surface debris, providing a thorough cleaning experience with minimal oversight.

With its ClearWater Clarification System, the iSkim Ultra reduces the need for chemical treatments. Using natural clarifiers made from recycled materials, it helps maintain crystal-clear water while promoting a healthier swimming environment. This design offers pool owners a more eco-friendly approach to pool care, requiring less time and fewer chemicals to manage.

In addition, features like the one-touch debris release and the 9L filter basket make maintenance easy. Built with durable, waterproof materials, the iSkim Ultra is designed for long-term reliability, making it a smart choice for pool owners seeking a sustainable, user-friendly solution for pool skimming.

EcoFlow Delta Pro 3 Solar Home Battery System

As AI becomes a bigger part of everyday life, so do our use and reliance on electronic devices and appliances at home. In addition to power consumption and the costs that come with it, this also means we become more beholden to sources of electricity, like power grids that are groaning under the weight of heavier consumption every year. Fortunately, there are also technologies that try to keep us from becoming paralyzed when the power goes out or when there isn’t one available in the first place, like the new EcoFlow Delta Pro 3 system that promises stable and green power you can rely on anytime, anywhere.

Designer: EcoFlow

Rather than limiting itself for the sake of being small and portable, the Delta Pro 3 embraces flexibility and power to deliver the power you need in the manner that best suits your situation. You can hook it up to solar panels to have 24/7 green energy enough to meet the needs of modern households. You can use it on its own in your outdoor adventures, powering your RV for a comfy outdoor life. And if you’re still living on the grid, it offers emergency backup power that kicks in just after 10ms. It’s an all-around power source that you can expand, whether you need 4kW, 8kW, or a whopping 12kW when used with other units.

Even with all that power, EcoFlow hasn’t forgotten the human factor in its design. Taking inspiration from high-performance sports cars, the Delta Pro 3 adopts a sleek and streamlined style with a Galactic Silver motif that adds visual sophistication to the power station. The EcoFlow Delta Pro 3 also puts safety and comfort in mind, with industry-leading battery management, advanced safety systems, and a quiet operation of less than 30dB that won’t keep you up at night.

Laifen Wave Titanium Toothbrush

The Laifen Wave Electric Toothbrush is designed for users who demand precision and performance in their oral care with up to 66,000 sonic vibrations per minute and a 60-degree oscillation range, adhering to the dentist-recommended Modified Bass brushing technique. Central to its effectiveness is the Proprietary Servo System, a feature that sets it apart from typical electric toothbrushes. This advanced system continuously monitors brushing resistance and adjusts motor performance in real-time, ensuring consistent cleaning power regardless of pressure.

Designer: Laifen

The toothbrush is available in four premium materials — Stainless Steel, Aluminum Alloy, ABS, and Titanium, making it the world’s first titanium electric toothbrush. Known for its strength and corrosion resistance, titanium ensures that the toothbrush is durable and long-lasting, making it a premium option for users looking for a product that will stand the test of time. The Stainless Steel and Aluminum Alloy options provide sleek, modern designs that balance weight and durability, while the ABS option offers a more lightweight alternative without sacrificing performance.

The Laifen Wave has three brush heads: Gum Care, Super-Clean, and Ultra-Whitening. Each head is specifically designed for different cleaning needs. Gum Care is gentler and designed to protect sensitive gums, while Super-Clean delivers intense cleaning for everyday plaque removal. The Ultra-Whitening head is designed for those looking to maintain a brighter smile. When paired with the Laifen Wave’s high-frequency vibrations and wide oscillation range, these brush heads deliver superior results tailored to individual needs.

Customization is another key feature of the Laifen Wave. The toothbrush comes with three preset brushing modes—gentle, regular, and intense—allowing users to adjust the brushing experience to their preferences. For even greater control, the Laifen app offers ten adjustable intensity levels, enabling users to fine-tune the vibration strength and oscillation range to suit their unique brushing style. Whether someone needs a gentler clean or prefers a more vigorous brushing experience, the app allows easy adjustments.

Eureka E20 Plus Robot Vacuum

There’s no shortage of robot vacuum cleaners boasting powerful suction capabilities, but that also means they’ll suck up anything and everything in their path, including things that can damage the robot as well. The Eureka E20 Plus makes short work of animal fur and human hair that can tangle and clog up vacuum brushes with its Newly Designed Anti Hair-Tangling Roller Design, achieving an anti-wrap effectiveness of 94%! Paired with its super-strong 8000 Pa suction, no dirt or hair is safe from this rolling machine.

Designer: Eureka

And it looks great to boot, offering burden-free operation that can save you up to $70 a year (estimated based on changing a $6 robot vacuum dust bag once per month). The transparent bag-free base station lets you see exactly what’s going on inside and offers stress-free emptying of that dust tank. Simply dump the contents directly into the garbage bin without having to worry about bursting or overflowing bags or having to replace those bags regularly. The clear view of the base station’s internals also gives it a sophisticated and futuristic look that perfectly fits the homes of tomorrow.

The Eureka E20 Plus Robot Vacuum is the perfect solution for pet owners as well as households where hair often ends up on the floor. Of course, it can also do what other flagship robot vacs can, including automatic Multi-Cyclonic Dust Collection, 10mm Mop Lifting, and DuoDetect AI 3D Obstacle Avoidance. With strong suction power, anti-tangling capabilities, a bag-free base station, and a stylish transparent design, the Eureka E20 Plus offers a stress-free and burden-free cleaning experience for all.

Govee COB Strip Light Pro

Smart lighting is one of the easiest ways to get started in upgrading your living space, and there is a wide variety of designs that go beyond a simple bulb. Govee, an industry leader in both indoor and outdoor smart lighting, offers plenty of interesting and useful options to not only brighten up your space but also create the mood that you want. One of its newest designs is also its first, a COB strip light that provides both illumination and ambiance with the ease of use and customizability that the brand is known for.

Designer: Govee

Utilizing “chip-on-board” or COB technology, the new Govee COB Strip Light Pro packs no less than 1,260 LED beads per meter, creating a continuous line of light without any visible gaps. It’s a beautiful display that can be used to light up a room as a secondary light source with pure white, as well as get a party going with dynamically changing hues. And thanks to its silicone sleeve, you don’t have to worry about installing it out in the open since it will look discreet and blend with the rest of its surroundings.

In addition to the bright and colorful illumination provided by Govee’s RGBIC+W technology, you have a handful of options available to control the dance of these LEDs, whether manually or through automation through smart assistants. Every meter has 12 segments you can customize, and every 8cm of the strip has a clearly labeled segment you can cut, allowing the user to truly create the lighting environment they want rather than bending over backward to conform to the limitations of the light strip. With the Govee COB Strip Light Pro, any kitchen island, furniture, or space becomes an opportunity to enhance the living experience.

DJI Neo FPV Drone

Weighing just under 5 ounces, the DJI Neo sets a new standard for everyday content creation with its ultra-compact, pocket-friendly design. As DJI’s lightest and most portable drone yet, it eliminates the need for a traditional remote control, offering one-button takeoff, landing, and shooting. It can still pair with traditional RC controllers, DJI Goggles, or the Fly app for more advanced control, offering flexibility to suit different user preferences, while voice commands enhance its ease of use, allowing for a hands-free experience.

Designer: DJI

With an 18-minute flight time and the ability to capture 12MP photos and 4K stabilized video, Neo brings professional-grade filming to anyone’s fingertips. Neo can record up to 40 minutes of 4K video or 55 minutes at 1080p/60fps that it then stores on its 22GB internal storage. The DJI Neo’s AI-powered subject tracking ensures users stay perfectly framed during cycling, hiking, or skateboarding activities. Its six QuickShots modes—such as “Dronie” and “Boomerang”—enable dynamic, cinematic angles with minimal effort.

Safety is paramount with Neo’s fully wrapped propellers, which protect the drone and its users. Neo’s single-axis mechanical gimbal and DJI’s RockSteady and HorizonBalancing stabilization technology ensure smooth, shake-free footage even in windy conditions. The drone’s infrared and monocular vision positioning systems maintain steady hovering, while the automatic Return to Home (RTH) feature adds peace of mind.

CANVAS HiFi TV Sound System

There is a lot of attention being given to the image quality produced by TVs, but what we see, while important, isn’t all that makes up a cinematic home theater experience. That said, the majority of home HiFi sound systems and even sound bars focus too much on technical qualities, forgetting the part that these audio systems have to sit inside the home. The result is a juxtaposition of a beautiful and stylish screen standing beside functional speakers that clash with the rest of your living space. Wouldn’t it be great if you could have a beautiful HiFi sound system that perfectly matches your beautiful TV? Fortunately, CANVAS agrees.

Designer: CANVAS HiFi

Going against the flow of typical speaker designs, the CANVAS HiFi TV Sound System embraces design as an important and co-equal priority to a quality home product. It integrates with your TV mechanically and visually, making the two seem like a whole rather than two separate parts. With premium materials like Milled-Ochre textile from Kvadrat or Mahogany from Danish designer Susanne Helberg, CANVAS creates an almost literal art canvas that adds beauty to any space it’s in.

Of course, it doesn’t hold back on delivering high-quality audio as well, introducing technologies that solve the biggest problems of wall-mounted speakers. Room correction turns bass gains into a big advantage even when placed so close to a wall, while BACCH 3D removes the need to place left and right speakers so far apart by preventing cross-talk and delivering real stereo imaging. The result is a stunning HiFi sound system that puts audio in its proper place, standing proudly with your equally striking TV.

TECNO MEGA MINI Gaming G1 Water-Cooled Mini PC

Even with handheld gaming PCs becoming trendy and gaming laptops becoming slimmer and sleeker, nothing still beats a desktop computer when it comes to sheer performance, configurability, and cooling. Nothing beats them in eating up desk or floor space either, which is why some gamers are willing to compromise power for the sake of size. TECNO, however, says it doesn’t have to be an either-or situation, and its mind-blowing MEGA MINI G1 mini PC proves you can have the best of both worlds.

Designer: TECNO

Significantly smaller than a standard desktop tower, this mini PC still packs quite a punch, including an Intel Core i9-13900H and, more importantly, an NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060. Gamers will be instantly familiar with such specs on a gaming-worthy computer, now crammed in a compact and cute box with transparent front and side panels. There’s plenty of RGB lighting that gamers crave, as well as a small built-in display at the top for CPU and GPU metrics at a glance without having to open up any app or overlay.

What really sets this mini PC apart, however, is its water-cooling system that you’d only see on larger desktops. A whisper-quiet pump moves the coolant through glowing tubes, offering the distraction-free performance that gives gamers the edge they need for an epic win. Whether it’s exploring the latest AAA title or even rendering graphics, the TECNO MEGA MINI Gaming G1 mini PC has plenty of muscle to show for such a small package.

DJI Avinox E-Bike Drive System

The DJI Avinox Drive System is designed to bring high performance and advanced technology to electric mountain bikes (eMTBs). Weighing only 2.52 kg, the drive system is compact but powerful, delivering an impressive 105 N·m of torque. This level of power allows riders to conquer steep climbs and navigate challenging terrain with ease, all while keeping the bike’s overall weight low.

At the core of the Avinox system is DJI’s Smart-Assist Algorithm, which automatically adjusts power output based on real-time riding conditions, adjusting assistance to match the rider’s needs without requiring constant manual input, whether the rider is tackling flat trails, climbing steep hills, or navigating rough terrain, the drive system . In addition to the automatic mode, riders can choose from three other assist modes—Eco, Trail, and Turbo—tailored to different riding scenarios. For particularly challenging climbs or rough sections, Boost mode delivers short bursts of extra torque, up to 120 N·m, giving riders the power to handle steep inclines or rugged terrain with ease.

Designer: DJI

Connectivity and control are central to the Avinox Drive System, which includes a 2-inch OLED touchscreen display integrated directly into the bike’s frame. This full-color display provides real-time information such as speed, range, and power output, allowing riders to monitor their performance at a glance. Additionally, the Avinox app offers advanced features like ride data tracking, anti-theft mode with password protection, the ability to customize riding parameters, and even remote bike location tracking, adding a layer of security for riders.

The first bike to integrate the Avinox Drive System is the Amflow PL, an electric mountain bike designed to fully take advantage of DJI’s advanced e-bike technology. Weighing only 19.2 kg, the Amflow PL packs serious power into a lightweight, ultra-responsive frame. The bike’s carbon fiber frame weighs just 2.27 kg, keeping the total weight low while offering strength and durability. The bike’s design incorporates cutting-edge geometry, giving it a balanced performance that handles rugged, technical trails with agility and stability. At the same time, it delivers 850W of peak power with the Avinox system, far surpassing the typical output of full-power eMTBs while maintaining the sleek, lightweight build of more traditional bikes.

The combination of DJI’s Avinox Drive System and the Amflow PL bike offers a remarkable blend of lightweight design, high power output, intelligent technology, and robust performance, making it an ideal choice for serious eMTB riders looking for a bike that handles the toughest trails with ease.

XGIMI Elfin Flip Portable Projector

Who says portable entertainment devices like speakers and projectors have to come in cylindrical shapes? They’re definitely handy and compact, but not always the most visually pleasing, especially when it comes time to use them at home. Embracing both home use and portability, the XGIMI Elfin Flip comes in a form that almost makes it look like a designer object, functioning as a decorative piece when it’s not in use.

Designer: XGIMI

The projector’s triangular form is already eye-catching, but the fact that you can swivel the main section down to reveal the projector will probably amaze your friends and family. Its flat, compact design also makes it easy to put inside a bag, ready to travel with you and set up an entertainment hub or meeting space anywhere.

And it’s not all just good looks either, with 400 ISO lumens brightness and two 3W speakers for a complete audio-visual treat. It also has a bundle of XGIMI’s intelligent features, from automatic keystone correction to screen alignment. Powered by WebOS, you have access to Netflix and a variety of apps, ensuring you have no shortage of sources to keep you and your friends entertained.

Lenovo Auto Twist AI PC Proof of Concept

AI is promised to deliver customized and personalized experiences, but that has mostly been true only for software and services so far. Hardware, particularly computer hardware, is still a matter of manual operations and control, but Lenovo envisions a future when that will no longer be the case. Its latest concept design leverages AI to change the laptop’s mode of operation, particularly its configuration and position, so that it can switch between laptop, tablet, or tent modes depending on what you’re doing. It can even close the lid when you leave the laptop unattended after a period of time.

Designer: Lenovo

Convertible laptops like the Lenovo Yoga offer flexibility in their different modes, but you have to manually fold or turn the screen to actually take advantage of those modes. That presents an opportunity to make computers more efficient mostly by automatically changing their form without having to touch the laptop itself. The Lenovo Auto Twist AI PC Proof of Concept can do exactly that thanks to a motorized hinge and, of course, some AI. The screen, for example, can turn on its own to make sure you’re always at the center, or you can give it explicit commands to flip the screen around and transform itself into a tablet. It’s a simple change but one that could offer significant quality-of-life improvements if it ever becomes a stable and staple part of future Lenovo laptops.

SHARGE Forged Carbon Fiber Power Banks

Power banks are a fact of modern mobile life, and while they come in all shapes, sizes, and designs, they follow a common rule: the larger the capacity, the larger and heavier the power bank is. You can’t escape the laws of physics, but you can use materials that can be thin and light while still remaining durable. That miracle material is forged carbon fiber, and it is at the heart of SHARGE’s new handsome power banks.

Designer: SHARGE

The SHARGE Forged Carbon Fiber Power Bank series offers high-capacity portable batteries that weigh less than their regular counterparts while actually delivering better ruggedness and survivability. Plus they look quite eye-catching with their camo-like designs, thanks to the natural aesthetic produced by using carbon fiber chips. Available in a regular 10,000mAh CarbonBlade design and two Qi2 and MagSafe-compatible packs, SHARGE’s Forged Carbon Fiber power banks push the envelope of how these portable batteries should be designed.

ASUS ZenBook S 14 Laptop with Ceraluminum Cover

Laptops have long outgrown their image of simply being machines that you carry around to get work done. They have now become more suave and stylish, with some even becoming lifestyle choices. Despite all that, much of the materials used for these sleek machines gravitate toward metal or plastic, either for their durability or their cost-effectiveness. With its Zenbooks S 14 and the new Ceraluminum material, ASUS is pushing the envelope of laptop design to offer an elegant and luxurious aesthetic without compromise.

Designer: ASUS

Combining the best of ceramic and aluminum without their restrictions, Ceraluminum offers durable protection that looks and feels premium. Add this to the Zenbook S 14’s slim profile and lightweight body and you have a formula for a portable computer that you’ll want to show off at every opportunity. It doesn’t skimp on the all-important specs either, combining Intel’s latest AI-powered silicon with top-of-the-line hardware to deliver power and pizzazz in a single stylish package.

Morphy Richards Ductless Portable Air Conditioner

Like it or not, our planet is getting hotter, and conventional cooling solutions can no longer keep up with this worsening situation and our changing lifestyles. Not everyone can afford to install a traditional air conditioning unit at home, and A/C’s that advertise mobility have long large hoses snaking from their bodies. Morphy Richards is presenting a revolutionary product that truly makes air conditioning mobile, introducing the industry’s first ductless portable aircon for homes, offices, and other small spaces.

Designer: Morphy Richards

This seemingly magical feat is made possible with water-cooling technology that keeps the emitted hot air actually closer to room temperature, so you don’t need to direct it away using a cumbersome hose. With a 50-degree angle going in each direction, this ductless portable air conditioner can actually cover a wider range than what its small body would suggest. Plus, it actually looks quite appealing, almost like a futuristic robot with its sleek, shiny silver finish and black coating. Delivering cooling, dehumidifying, and fanning functions, this Morphy Richards Ductless Portable Air Conditioner promises comfort, convenience, and even cost savings for the modern household.

Acer Project DualPlay Gaming Laptop Concept

With PC gaming experiencing a sort of renaissance, it’s not surprising to see new designs rising to meet the changing needs and tastes of gamers. From slimmer laptops to handheld PCs, gaming has taken on new trends and behaviors that require PCs to change with them. Acer is taking up the challenge with a new concept gaming laptop that manages to honor tradition and explore new horizons at the same time, thanks to some innovative designs.

Designer: Acer

The laptop’s extra-large touchpad pops out and becomes a wireless controller, allowing gamers to quickly switch between keyboard and controller without missing a beat and without having to worry about forgetting to bring the controller or having no space for it in the bag. That detachable controller can actually be separated into two joysticks, not unlike the concept of the Nintendo Switch Joy-con, allowing two people to compete or cooperate in the same game without having to fight over the controls. Plus, two high-fidelity 5W speakers slide out from the side, delivering not only unhindered sound but a futuristic and hi-tech vibe as well.

Satechi Vegan-Leather Passport Cover with Find My

For all the hi-tech gadgets we have at our disposal, we humans still lose important things quite often, from bags to keys to critical documents. That experience can be especially terrifying when it involves misplacing your passport in a foreign country. Fortunately, we do now have technology that will help us locate lost items, like Satechi’s elegant passport cover which integrates with Apple’s worldwide Find My network. You can ping the passport and get an audible response if it’s nearby, or even get an immediate warning if you’ve accidentally left it behind. With a five-month battery life, you rarely need to charge it, and when you do, you can simply put it down on any wireless charger.

Designer: Satechi

Best of all, the passport cover is made from premium materials that don’t make it look like you’re carrying a piece of tech. Using scratch-resistant vegan leather, the Satechi Vegan Leather Passport Cover with Find My offers not only a stylish and aesthetic design but also a more sustainable material that will last a very long time. Most importantly, it offers peace of mind that your passport and important cards are always with you or are at least easy to locate if you do lose them.
