Best Electronic Devices for Men in 2022
Technology
evolves at a rapid pace, and if you don't take the time to look around every
once in a while, you might miss out on the chance to buy a drone with a 12
megapixel camera that hovers when it recognizes your face. So whether you're
looking for a simple tool to make your daily life easier or a more
extraordinary piece of technology, be sure to check back every week for our
pick of the best gadgets and tech currently available. The "something a
bit special" is, more specifically, a tennis kitbag that shoots tennis
balls.
Google's
newest and most affordable flagship smartphone, the Pixel 6A
The
Google Pixel has always been talked up for its camera, but it hasn't always
been able to pull off real miracles. The Pixel 6A is a new smartphone with
built-in features like "Magic Eraser" and "Camouflage" that
make it possible to hide or remove unwanted subjects from your photos. The 6A,
the less expensive sibling of the Pixel 6 and 6 Pro, still has many of the
brand's latest and greatest features, including customizable wallpapers and
longer battery life. Under £400, this is the best smartphone you can buy.
Camera
This camera is a Leica D-Lux 7 that has been dubbed the "A Bathing Ape
Stash."
SHOP
Since
the 1990s, New York graffiti legend Stash (real name: Josh Franklin) has
collaborated with streetwear label A Bathing Ape, most recently on a special
edition pair of Bape Sta sneakers to celebrate the company's 20th anniversary.
But their latest collaboration is something much more high-end: a Leica camera
with a camouflage pattern. The lightweight D-Lux 7 is a compact picture-taking
powerhouse, ideal for people who want to take photography to the next level,
whether they want to blend in at the Barbican Conservatory or stand out on the
street style circuit. There will only be 1,850 of these cameras made available
worldwide and each will feature logos from both A Bathing Ape and Stash
engraved on the body and embossed on the rope strap.

Style
your beard with the precision of the Prestige Beard Trimmer 9000 Series.
SHOP
In
your lifetime, how many low-quality beard trimmers have you gone through? Since
we use them so frequently, it's tempting to buy cheap models over and over
again, even though they never seem to work properly and always seem to die
right before we need them. If you really want to shave well, though, you should
buy a decent razor. You won't know what to do without it. The Philips Series
9000 is a high-end electric razor with an adjustable metal comb and a stainless
steel housing that makes it look and feel expensive. Its metal comb also
ensures a closer shave than one achieved with a plastic guard. Moreover, there
is no need to plug in the device, and a single use only necessitates a five-minute
charge.

Smart
Writing Set 2.0 by Moleskine
It's
a brilliant piece of technology that allows you to take notes in a traditional
Moleskine notebook using a (smart) pen and paper (with fine mesh embedded in
them) instead of a rubber-tipped stylus and a screen. As soon as you've charged
the pen and downloaded the free Moleskine app (for both iOS and Android),
you're ready to go. The device's screen will display a digital replica of your
drawing as the pen follows your every move (and transcribe them into text, for
good measure). Additionally, your scribbles and notes are synced with the cloud
instantly. It's a fantastic way to communicate with yourself outside of the
office without resorting to the use of a dictaphone à la Alan Partridge
(although the new version allows you to do that too). Your work can now be
exported as videos, and the battery life has also been significantly improved.

It
was only a matter of time before the tech industry caught up with the fashion
industry and embraced the early 2000s. Similar to the transparent casing
designs of third-party Nintendo 64 controllers and iMac G3s, tech company
Nothing's new mid-range smartphone plays up to its moniker by being a
see-through device made of strong Gorilla Glass. The phone's "Glyph
Interface" uses more than nine thousand LEDs to communicate information
like as battery life and incoming calls in a subtle manner. We're used to
multitasking smartphones that strive to keep us tapping and scrolling for as
long as possible, but the Nothing Phone (1) seeks to encourage a more
deliberate approach to both phone use and life in general. The battery charges
quickly, the dual cameras wow, and the display is bright, all while the Android
interface is as intuitively designed as you'd expect.

An
absolute master of the draft.
The
best man at the barbecue can be determined in one of two ways. You can either
spend the day manning the grills (a difficult and lonely experience, contrary
to what the lamestream media would have you believe) or you can bring the
Perfect Draft Pro and kick back and relax. Your guests may serve themselves
pints from the machine, and you can keep an eye on the temperature of the
six-liter keg from your phone. Easy. We recommend Tiny Rebel, Dark Arts, and
Mikkeller, just to name a few of the over 50 available options.

Litra
Glow, from Logitech.
You
can use this instead of spending the money on an Instagram influencer-style
ring light for your everyday Zoom chats. While Logitech's Litra Glow is really
intended for streamers—that is, Twitch players who haven't slept in two days
and could use some attractive lighting—it will more than do the job for regular
business meetings. Brightness and color temperature controls let you discover
the ideal illumination for your eyes and skin.
The
Logitech Litra Glow costs £59.

Sky's
latest entertainment bundle is a bit unconventional, with its simple,
minimalist 4K QLED TV that works without an aerial dish. Instead of purchasing
the screen altogether plus a Sky TV streaming subscription, you can choose from
a number of pricing plans spread out over 24 or 48 months. The screens come in
a variety of sizes and colors. Then you can go off and use the device's
excellent Dolby Vision HDR and Atmos sound systems, voice features, and myriad
of streaming options and apps. It's all pretty intuitive and operates without a
hitch. Streaming services don't allow you to record TV shows or movies, but
there are plenty of titles to choose from and you can always start watching a
movie from the beginning if you tune in midway through. The most cost-effective
entry point into the 4K world
