Corsair K65 Plus Wireless Keyboard
This compact little keyboard packs a big punch. It’s absolutely lovely to type on, with soft sounding keys that have a great feel to them. It has a customisable RGB backing light and a cool little dial in the top right corner that can be used to adjust things like volume and zoom, as well as scrolling. There is an app that can help you customise shortcuts, colours and so forth, but you can do most things direct from the keyboard itself. For added awesome, there is a switch to toggle between Mac and PC use, and it also works on PlayStation!
Fujifilm X100 VI
This new camera from Fujifilm is really quite awesome. Don’t let its old school, retro feel fool you, as it has no shortage of modern trimmings. It has a 40.2MP sensor, 6 stops of in-body image stabilisation, can shoot video up to 6.2K at 30fps (4K at 60fps) and uses AI tracking to take photos of moving objects. The control layout allows you to manually adjust challenging things like white balance with ease, and it still remains quite compact. The only issue is that it has become so popular they can be hard to come by.
Hubbl
This intriguing new streaming TV box from the makers of Foxtel aims to seamlessly blend live and on-demand TV into one device. The little box plugs into the back of your TV and has 18 apps available on it, with more on the way. It also has a normal TV aerial port. The UI then mixes free-to-air TV channels (like ABC, 7, 9, 10 and SBS) with apps like Binge, Disney+, Netlfix, Amazon and more. It’s pretty cool to have every TV experience in one spot, and apparently cloud gaming is coming to the service in the future, too.
Lenovo Legion Go
This is the latest entry in the portable PC space, looking to Switch-erize a Windows gaming desktop into a handheld. It does a good job, too. The 8.8-inch screen is big enough, and sharp enough at 2560 x 1600 resolution and a 144Hz fresh rate, that it’s not just great for games, but also doubles as a mini-TV and Windows tablet. The control sticks and buttons work well, and you can detach them (like a Joy-con). One can even be turned into a mouse! The battery life and audio are a bit underdone, but we love the built-in kickstand. Very cool.
WD Black C50 Storage Expansion Card
One of the biggest issues we have with the Xbox Series X (and Xbox Series S) is the lack of hard drive space. You can increase the storage, however, through the use of a memory cards like this one from Western Digital. It comes in 512GB and 1TB capacities, and provides all the same features – like Quick Resume – that you get from the internal hard drive. We like it because of its sturdy design, which includes a protective casing. And for its excellent performance.
Nighthawk Tri-Band WiFi 7 Router
A new era of Wi-Fi speeds has arrived; if you can afford it. While expensive, this router – which looks awesome as a menacing black tower – can take your NBN speeds and pump them throughout your house without compromise. WiFi 7 is 2.4x faster than WiFi 6, with speeds up to 19GB per second. That’s gigabytes, not megabytes! You can get over 300 square-metres of coverage, connect to up to 200 devices at once, and it has superfast 10GBps ethernet ports as well. Impressive!
