GOOGLE NEST HUB MAX
The upgraded version of the Nest Hub smart display features a 10-inch display rather than the original 7-inch, and it comes with an ambient light sensor that adjusts the brightness depending on the time of day. It also doubles as a digital photo frame when not in use, so you can set a slideshow of recent snaps to brighten the room. Another change over the original is louder, better audio performance. This means it’s more suited to larger homes as well as making your music sound better. $229.

AMAZON KINDLE OASIS
E-readers have been around for a while, but Amazon keeps improving its Kindle range. The Oasis is the most paper- like e-reader around, and the battery lasts up to six weeks. A recent upgrade also adds a warmth scale, which changes the hue of the screen so it’s easier on your eyes at night. It proves a perfect product for those who want to read while keeping their luggage as light as possible. $249.99.

It offers a more discreet way to track daily steps, sleep and activity, plus you can use an accompanying app to analyze your data. $199.99.
