Small in size but big on function, Canon proves to be a notch above the rest with its latest line of ultra-compact network cameras. Namely the VB-S30D, VB-S31D, VB-S800D and VB-S900F, all four cameras are equipped with a myriad of functions, such as detecting camera tampering and motion, which ensures maximum security and makes them super flexible in all sorts of recording situations.
simple touches
Bang & Olufsen has launched some very hotlyanticipated products; sound systems that will change the way music are played. Accessing your digital music collection in your cloud-based devices or computer, the BeoSound Essence allows you to play your tunes with a simple touch. Place its remote on the wall, on your coffee table or your study desk, or wherever’s convenient. Skip between playlist tracks or internet radio stations or mute and adjust the volume. The one-touch navigation simplifies your music enjoyment.
Lauded as the world’s smallest full HD pan-tilt-zoom surveillance camera, the versatile VB-S30D fits just about anywhere and yet, keeps the home safely monitored. Retailing from S$799 to S$1,199 at Canon authorised dealers
Another product highlight is its iconic and the longestliving headphones in the market, the timeless 30-year-old Form 2. It has now been updated with a microphone, three-button remote and offers better comfort. Renamed as Form2i, one thing that hasn’t changed is its authentic and clean sound performance.

classy contenders
Rolling out twin smartphone technologies Xperia E1 and Xperia T2 Ultra and T2 Ultra dual, Sony delivers bang for the buck value while excelling in specs. A music machine at heart, Xperia E1 offers surprisingly loud and clear audio that is immune to even a blaring motorcycle zooming past. The solid interface offers a vibrant display combined with lightning speeds for the ultimate entertainment experience. Speaking of entertainment, it’s hard to beat Xperia T2 Ultra and Xperia T2 Ultra dual in this aspect. As the world’s most portable large-screen smartphone, you can now bring your favourite movies and songs along with you while you’re out and about. Despite the wide screens, you’ll get the assurance of long-lasting battery life as it shuts down functions to save power when not in use. Available from Q1 2014 at all Sony stores and authorised outlets
