NXT Magazine - May 2025

In this issue

Welcome to the May 2025 edition of NXT. In this issue’s standout feature, we take a deep dive into Smart(er) Travel. We explore how modern travellers harness a seamless blend of cutting-edge gear and intuitive apps to craft unforgettable journeys. From high-performance compact cameras and ergonomic travel pillows to smart backpacks, sleek luggage, and game-changing mobile apps, this Smart(er) Travel guide equips you to travel smarter, lighter, and more connected than ever.

In Test, we put three of this season’s hottest devices through their paces: the ultraportable Acer TravelMate P6 14, the AI-boosted ASUS Zenbook 14, and the flagship Xiaomi 15. Whether you’re working at 30,000 feet, editing poolside, or streaming on the go, these laptops and smartphones prove that power, battery life, and portability can coexist in perfect harmony.

Finally, in NXT Big Thing, we examine how AI is reshaping the future of travel planning.
