Find out how tech can upgrade every part of your life, from art appreciation and top tellies to the best shave ever
THE BEST TECH FOR…
audiovisual supremacy
1 Sonos Beam
Sonos’ new soundbar packs a stunning amount of audio into your bedroom or living room, lifting the flat sound you get from most TVs. but it’s also a great addition to a smart home setup, thanks to built-in Alexa voice control, and it’s part of a Sonos or Apple AirPlay 2 multi-room music system. And that Sonos support means you could add a couple of Sonos satellite speakers or its subwoofer to extend it into a more comprehensive surround system. there’s really no better-value way to boost your home’s sound and smarts. £399, sonos.com
2 Sony AF8
Our favourite telly on the market right now (the AF9 may change that when it lands – see p12) starts with a gorgeous OLED 4K panel that produces perfect HDr visuals, and then continues with best-in-class image processing for making HD content look great at Ultra HD, and making motion perfectly smooth in sports. It also comes with ‘Acoustic Surface’ speaker tech: the whole screen itself is a speaker (with a woofer at the back for added oomph), creating a more engrossing soundstage than other TVs. From £2,199, sony.co.uk
3 Sony WH-1000XM2
