Amazon Echo Show 5
The Echo Show 5 from Amazon offers an advanced
step up from the previous handsfree Amazon Echo
speaker. The updated version has all the features
of the classic Echo such as the abilities to research
information, make calls and play music but it now
has a 5.5-inch screen for an added effect. This new
technology means that users can now ask Alexa
anything and be shown answers; follow step-by-step
recipes, watch shows and tv or connect with family
and friends via video calling. Added features include
the ability to connect with and playback your home
security camera footage, control lights and thermostats
or simply display your favorite photos on the interface.
Alexa is back and better than ever.
Apple iPhone 11
Many might question why the iPhone
11 Pro and Pro Max aren’t featured
on this list and the answer is easy.
Although the pro versions of Apple’s
latest mobile phones are amazing in
their own right, the price point will put
a lot of people off. Apple’s iPhone 11
may look a lot like last year’s XR, but
the company made some big changes,
including a massive battery that lasts
way longer, a camera that’s one of best
on any smartphone, and an even more
accelerated processor. If you’re looking
to buy an iPhone this holiday season,
this is the one to get. Just remember to
insure it, you can’t be too careful when
a costly device is at stake.
Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-RX100
VII Digital Camera
For many, if not most people, the camera that comes
with your smartphone might be more than enough
for your Instagram updates and Facebook profile
pictures. But for those looking to pack a bit more
oomph in their compact photography, the Sony
Cyber-Shot will deliver everything you’ll ever need,
and more. It fits into a jacket pocket, yet it can shoot
4K video and capture images with a quality ratio
that rivals that of a pro-grade DSLR camera. The
camera’s impressive capabilities come courtesy of a
larger 1-inch sensor, a cutting-edge image processor,
and a versatile zoom lens. These features also earned
the camera a gold award from Digital Photography
Review. If you’re going to take some epic photos, you
might as well use an epic camera.
