Tile Pro

If you want to ensure the safety of your belongings, it's a good idea to put a Tile Pro or Apple AirTag in your checked baggage. We recommend Tile because it is compatible with both Android and Apple devices. It is a powerful tracker that helps you keep track of your possessions. Its sleek design makes it easy to attach to keys, bags, or luggage, and with its free app, you can quickly locate them.

Beats Fit Pro

Released in 2021, the Beats Fit Pro is one of the most liked earbuds. It is great for active noise cancellation, transparency mode and has an adaptive equaliser. It also comes with voice command. The ear pods tend to be more sweat resistant than the Apple AirPod. With a 6-hour battery life on active listening time, the gadget can go up to 24 hours. It would be a decent investment, especially ever since they got released in new colourful variants.

Amazon Kindle Paperwhite

This year, unleash the reader in you with a bookish investment. It's been 15 years since Amazon first released the Kindle, and it remains the best e-reader on the market. The 2022 version is lighter than ever and features an improved Paperwhite screen, which is the optimal way to read books on an electronic device. With 16GB of storage, it can hold thousands of books and charges faster, lasting up to six weeks on a single charge. If you always carry books while travelling, now might be a good time to consider switching to a Kindle.

Anker 622 Magnetic Battery

If you own one of the latest iPhones and are looking for a portable battery pack that supports MagSafe technology, consider the Anker 622. With a capacity of 5,000mAh, it provides more power than Apple's MagSafe battery pack, rated at only 1,460mAh. The Anker 622 can wirelessly charge your phone at a maximum of 7.5 watts and comes with a travel-friendly built-in kickstand, making it easy to use on the go. If you need even more power, opt for Anker's 10,000mAh version.

GoPro Hero 12 Black Action Camera

When it comes to packing a camera for travel, there is one clear choice – the new GoPro Hero 12 Black. Building on the impressive performance of the Hero 11 Black, this camera is compact enough to fit in even the smallest of bags, yet it matches the capabilities of much larger cameras, thanks to 12 generations of innovation. The latest version of this iconic camera can shoot high-dynamic-range video for improved contrast and colour, features a wider field-of-view lens to capture more of any scene, and supports Bluetooth for headphone connectivity. Additionally, it boasts the best in-camera stabilization yet. It's designed to withstand bumps, drops, and splashes, and a great smartphone app lets you upload your footage to social media from anywhere you are.
