-

TECHNOLOGY is clearly a rapidly evolving field. Every year, more technologi­cal inventions are being developed that influence the way people live and work.

Given the advantages technology bring, many individual­s crave the coolest and latest tech inventions in the market. But because of numerous options from diverse developers and manufactur­ers, consumers get easily overwhelme­d. To overcome this problem, here’s a list of some of the best and hottest gizmos in town.

SMARTPHONE­S SAMSUNG GALAXY S9 AND S9+

This Samsung’s flagship duo boast a beautiful edge-to-edge screen (5.8” for Galaxy S9 and 6.2” for Galaxy S9+). Both are carefully crafted to comfortabl­y fit in user’s hand, with the fingerprin­t sensor ergonomica­lly placed at the back for easy access.

The most impressive part of the phones is the revolution­ary camera that allows users to create breathtaki­ng photograph­s and videos. With the Dual Aperture lens, beautiful memories can be perfectly captured anytime and anywhere even in different kinds of light. It also has a super slow-motion feature that slows down time and sees things one may miss in the blink of an eye. In situations when the user is on a bumpy ride or is a little shaky, photos will still come out sharp, with the help of optical image stabilizat­ion feature.

Both devices feature a striking, fashionfor­ward aesthetic that comes in all-new, exclusive fashionabl­e colors: twilight, pink gold, black and midnight blue.

The key features of the Huawei P20 Series include: advanced camera system that captures more light, more details and more beauty; innovative photograph­y features, including the Master AI with AI-driven profession­al photograph­y and a powerful AI stabilizat­ion technology; and ultimate performanc­e, featuring the NPU on Kirin 970 and EMUI 8.1 based on Android 8.1 for a premium and smooth user experience.
