Samsung Portable SSD T5

The new Samsung Portable SSD T5 is incredibly compact, measuring only 74 x 57.3 x 10.5mm (smaller than the length and width of a name card) and weighing just 51g. It’s also incredibly fast, with transfer speeds reaching 540MB/s. The T5 uses Samsung’s 64-layer V-NAND flash memory and a USB 3.1 Gen 2 interface to reach its rapid transfer speeds, which Samsung says is up to 4.9x faster than external HDDs.

Xiaomi Mi 6

Who would've thought that next smartphone (besides the Samsung Galaxy S8 and Sony Xperia XZ Premium) to boast a Snapdragon 835 processor would be a Xiaomi? The Mi 6 also has splash-resistance and 12-megapixel dual rear cameras, all at the price of S$599.

The Xiaomi Mi 6 has just officially launched in Singapore, find out more about it here.

 

Twelve South ActionSleeve

Apple Watch lets you track your activity, but if you’re kickboxing you don’t want to knock someone out with it. Here’s where the ActionSleeve comes in, it straps your Watch to your upper arm or bicep, but still lets you tap and see it. Strap it tight, and it can still track your heart rate.

Audeze LCDi4

The Audeze LCDi4 is the company’s newest flagship in-ear planar magnetic headphones and it features trickle down technology from its widely acclaimed LCD-4 full-size over-ear headphones, such as Fluxor magnets and Uniforce voice coil. According to Audeze, these technologies give it a wide sound stage, excellent transient response, and a flat bass response from 900Hz all the way down to 5Hz. Impedance is 35 Ohms and sensitivity is 105dB/1mW, which means most mobile devices should be able to provide it with enough juice.
