It would be easy to fill this page with how monstrously fast the £116,000 Porsche Taycan Turbo is, digging deep into exactly how 0-60mph in 2.8 seconds – and 160mph on the Autobahn – feels. But there’s much more to Porsche’s first electric car than point-and-squirt performance. As Tesla repeatedly likes to prove, making an electric car astonishingly quick is child’s play. Instead, let’s focus on what makes the Taycan Turbo different. For starters, there’s the interior. Instead of a single huge touchscreen and not much else, Porsche’s EV cabin is sporty, luxurious and bristling with technology. Get greedy with the options list and there are five displays in here, with haptic controls that are as forceful as a MacBook’s trackpad. Next is the two-speed gearbox. Unique among today’s electric…

SWAROVSKI OPTIC CL COMPANION NOMAD The CL Companion Nomad binoculars are packed with carefully-considered features, whether it’s Swarobright coating for maximum colour fidelity across the whole light spectrum, or the titanium screw components, for unbeatable durability. £2,070, uk.swarovskioptik.com LIFEVENTURE TIV VACUUM BOTTLE This hi-tech bottle will keep chilled drinks cold during the day and hot drinks hot (surprise surprise) during those allimportant night safaris. A large neck makes it easy to add ice cubes, and it’s made entirely with recyclable materials. £17, lifeventure.com PETZL SWIFT RL A head torch is a safari essential, and Petzl’s hi-tech RL features an ultra-bright, 900-lumen beam. The best bit? Switch to reactive mode and the Swift RL monitors ambient light and responds accordingly. For example, it will activate full power mode when you stare…

How are you meant to get into shape if you keep getting injured? Nike is aiming to minimise this inconvenience with its new React Infinity Run trainers. Designed for moderate runs, they’re built on a wide platform and supportive foam, which work together to guide the foot in a smooth, straight line. And the results have been incredible – in a recent comparison test, athletes wearing the React Infinity Run were found to have a 52% lower injury rate than those wearing a similar running shoe. £TBC, nike.com…

I SHOULDN’T BE TELLING YOU THIS Jeff Goldblum’s jazz album, despite the wacky ivorytinkling star collaborating with Miley Cyrus at one point, is a truly wonderful thing. FOR ALL MANKIND The real star of the Apple TV+ launch capsule, this drama imagines a space race that the Soviets won – and America’s apoplectic determination to continue the fight. ENTER THE DRAGON How’s this for a classic? Now on Netflix, Guru’s favourite: the uncut 1973 Bruce Lee violence festival, unquestionably one of the greatest kung fu flicks of all time. Jim Kelly’s fab, too.…

1 LEGO IMPERIAL STAR DESTROYER A wonderfully challenging build, with almost 4,800 pieces to work through, an incredible amount of detail, and even a scale model of the Tantive IV starship to show just how gigantic it is, this is the ultimate Lego display piece. £650, lego.com 2 SQUARE OFF Every chess player’s dream come true: a smart board with pieces that move themselves.

GHOST OF TSUSHIMA The movement of Sucker Punch’s Sony-exclusive samurai ’em up to late 2020 doesn’t officially guarantee a PS5 release as well as PS4, but it’s quite the coincidence. As beautiful open worlds go, it’s hard to think of anything hungrier for ray tracing than feudal Japan HORIZON ZERO DAWN 2 It’s not been confirmed to exist yet, let alone be a PS5 launch title, but studio Guerrilla Games’ job listings heavily hint at a sequel to Aloy’s adventure. Vegetation Artist for the world of Horizon anyone? We’ll bet a robotic dinosaur on an announcement soon. ASSASSIN’S CREED 2020 Rumoured for a reveal at Sony’s PlayStation Event in February and apparently called Ragnarok, Ubisoft’s newest Creed will definitely sync with new-gen consoles. A Viking setting should still be taken…

It’s been a long time since visuals in games were the very first things we noticed. Every console generation has come with its own jump in quality, but in the years since PS4 and Xbox One were first released, we’ve become accustomed to a certain graphical standard, making every new leap forward seem somewhat small. Ray tracing is not small. It’s the future of how we see digital worlds, and probably the reason you’ll wear out your screenshot button Put simply, ray tracing simulates the physical behaviour of real light. Where previously developers had to create specific lighting effects to fool you into thinking something looked real, ray tracing delivers a real-time recreation of your favourite worlds in their glowy glory. It’s also what Hollywood has been using in its…

From £2,399 apple.com/uk This is kind of a banner occasion. There hasn’t been a new size of Apple pro laptop since 2009 – before the iPad even existed. And with 17-inch screens now more the preserve of unwieldy gaming devices than sleek pro machines, the idea of 16 inches of working space is a damn tempting one. The 16-inch MacBook Pro is actually only around two percent larger than the 15-inch MacBook Pro that it has replaced in Apple’s line-up – Apple has finally got with the times to slim down the bezels, affording an extra inch of screen space. The display is 3072x1920, and while it’s a bit of a shame not to get a full 4K panel for this price, that’s the only complaint we have about it.…

Thin and lightweight waterproofs are superb for keeping you dry during late spring to autumn downpours, but they won’t keep you warm in the depths of winter. Sideways rain and bitter winds can cut through a thin waterproof jacket like an icy knife – that’s why tweed was invented, after all. On the other hand, choosing a jacket that keeps you warm but can’t cope with a downpour is just as frustrating. That’s why we’ve rounded up six top-billed insulated waterproof jackets to keep you warm and dry. As you’ll discover below, some jackets carry out their duties better than others, and, depending on your budget, you may need to make some sacrifices in terms of warmth or weatherproofing. But luckily, there are a few that do it all, and…

1 MOTOROLA RAZR £1,360 (approx), motorola.co.uk The Motorola Razr is a cutting-edge, foldable phone that’s also a throwback to one of the most iconic handset designs of all time: the original Razr V3 that launched in 2004… it’s the future wrapped in the past. We got a chance to test it, to see whether this synthesis is novel enough to be worth flipping out over. We assumed that foldables would bridge the gap between phones and tablets by unfolding horizontally into a wider display. Motorola has other ideas, however, and its take flips open to reveal an elongated touchscreen that’s just a bit longer than the iPhone 11’s display. So, no, you don’t get much more screen real estate. The novelty lies in what you can do when the phone…

Winter sun hangs lower in the sky, which becomes a problem when driving or when exploring on foot. Well, at least that’s our tenuous excuse for splashing out on new shades at this time of year. Cartier has long been a celebrity favourite, and the brand’s new aviatorshaped sunglasses are created to fit pretty much every type of face shape, making them similar to Ray-Ban shades in the sense that they’re pretty universal. Cartier’s luxury sunglasses come in four different lens and frame colours, with a choice of silver and gold frames, plus lenses ranging from dark green to a light grey. As for us, we’re keen on the rather classic looking two-toned metal with a ruthenium and brushed champagne gold finish. Polarised lenses reduce reflective glare and boost clarity,…

SNOW BROOM AND ICE SCRAPER The telescopic design enables you to extend the reach of this brush and scraper so that you can clean all of your windscreen with ease without overreaching. At one end sits the squeegee and snow brush, and at the other an ice scraper. £8, halfords.com AUTOGLYM DE-ICER Clearing ice is vital for your on-road safety during winter, and AutoGlym’s de-icer makes quick work off it, melting ice efficiently and safely without causing damage to your windscreen. Brush off any large deposits of snow, then point and spray the de-icer. From £4.40, autoglym.com AA ESSENTIALS SNOW SHOVEL Every car boot needs a compact, folding snow shovel, and the AA’s is one of the highest-rated. It has a serrated blade to dig into compacted snow, with a…

If you’re looking for advice on how to get and stay fit: on your bike! No, we’re not being rude – cycling is one of the most effective forms of exercise you can do, offering a workout for the legs, lungs and heart. And indoor cycling is even better, as there are no traffic lights or big scary lorries. Most gyms have exercise bikes, but if you’d rather cycle at home, your two options are a dedicated training bike like the Wattbike Atom (from £1,599, wattbike.com) or a turbo trainer, which will convert your regular bicycle into a static machine – we’re fans of the Tacx Neo 2T Smart (£1,110 approx, tacx.com). And if you get bored while you pedal, you could always download a cycling app: Zwift (from Free,…

Q ROSS HORNBY, CAMBRIDGE How can I look better on webcam? A Tough one, this, as Guru’s cosmetic surgery licence has (quite rightly) been suspended, so he can’t exactly whip out a scalpel or a syringe full of questionably-sourced Botox to help you out. But he can, at least, diagnose some of the reasons a webcam makes you, an otherwise beautiful person, look like an only vaguely humanoid bag of butter. Positioning is one issue, and if you’re unlucky enough to have a last-gen Dell XPS 13 or any other laptop with the camera in its hinge, you’ll likely have noticed the big problem with a cam that points directly at the underside of your chin and up your nose: that ain’t flattering. Grab yourself a solid external webcam (Logitech’s…

I love cooking, not least because at the end of it, there is some yummy food for me to eat. Or at any rate, there’s some food. Then I shovel it into my gob, so I can later be told by my Japanese scales that I am ‘secretly obese’. I think they struggle with Western physiognomy, to be honest. Later, I might go and flail about on an elliptical machine, until my watch assures me I’ve burned off all the calories from the yummy food. The display on the smart scales still says, ‘Get off me you fat, Western bastard’ afterwards. Isn’t it great to live in the technological age? One part of that cycle of consumption and purging that’s never really involved tech till now is the actual cooking…

1 PANASONIC FZ802D Low price doesn’t mean low end; Panasonic’s cheapest OLED pulls down the HCX Pro processor from higher models which means it does some fantastic things. These include Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos and HDR10+ – and the picture is just amazing. From £1,300, panasonic.co.uk 2 BEATS POWERBEATS PRO Resistant to sweat and fitting super-snug on any ear, Beats’ fitness-focused earphones have everything you need to pump your way through a private workout – and that includes Apple’s H1 wireless chip, which stops signal dropouts. From £219, beatsbydre.com 3 LG C9 If you’re a gamer this is a top-line TV, with a 1ms grey-to-grey response time on its OLED pixels, a tiny 12.9ms input lag, and Nvidia G-Sync support via a firmware update. Even if you’re just kicking back,…

Despite looking almost traditional in the company of its rivals here, this is still a striking bit of design. The huge and tactile volume dial, the heat-sink fins on the back and the sheer girth of the thing make it instantly iconic. Naim has honed everything about the original Mu-so for this successor. The result is a brilliant-sounding slab of sound, with rock-solid streaming over Wi-Fi or ethernet and a good range of other connectivity options – Bluetooth, analogue and digital inputs, a USB audio port that also charges your phone, and HDMI Arc. The latter is quite apt, as the Mu-so does resemble a soundbar, at least when viewed from the front. Naim’s app is notably better than Linn’s, especially if you use Tidal, as the implementation of that…

PS5-Vs-Project Scarlett Processors 8-core AMD Ryzen Zen 2 Custom AMD Ryzen Zen 2 Graphics Custom AMD Navi Custom AMD Navi Storage Custom SSD Custom SSD RAM TBC GDDR6 Optical drive Yes (4K Blu-ray drive) Yes (4K Blu-ray drive) Maximum output resolution 8K 8K Maximum frame rate 120fps 120fps Backwards compatible? Yes (PS4) Yes (Xbox One, Xbox 360, Xbox) Here we are. After seven years and countless iterative consoles, it’s finally time for a new PlayStation and Xbox to take their rightful places under your television for a new generation. What better way to start a new decade than with a fresh set of consoles to gently argue over? But, now we know what’s coming during the sacred period known only as Holiday 2020 - that’s October to December for us…

While we’d probably all like to think ourselves above terms like ‘console wars’, the game industry is looking ahead to next year’s holiday season with interested, if not quite bloodthirsty, eyes. After a generation at least initially dominated by PS4, Microsoft has everything to play for with its nextgeneration console. And, because it likes code names, we’re stuck repeatedly saying Project Scarlett instead of just Xbox Two or whatever. The good news is that despite not knowing its official name, we have plenty of details on Microsoft’s future tech. Some of it might just be very familiar if you didn’t skip the last page. Project Scarlett will be making the most of a custom AMD processor with Zen 2 technology and a custom AMD Navi graphics chip. Yes, this is…

Let’s face it, 8K gaming in 2020 seems hopeful. While both Project Scarlett and PS5 claim to have maximum resolution outputs of 8K - yes, that’s 7680x4320 - there are a few technical reasons why we probably won’t be playing launch games with more pixels than we thought would fit in our eyes. This isn’t to say that 8K won’t eventually be possible with next-gen consoles, but there are definitely some limitations when it comes to what these new boxes will be able to achieve. Not to be too negative, but the good news is that you don’t have to upgrade your TV yet… It’s a little cheeky but, to say they are 8K ready, technically all PS5 and Xbox Project Scarlett have to do is use the new standard…

£1,499 (From £899) microsoft.com Microsoft has come out hitting hard with the new Surface range, releasing the Surface Pro 7, the Surface Pro X and the Surface Laptop 3. Two Pro tablets? That’s a bold move. Granted, they serve different markets; the Pro X is a higher-price, sleeker new professional tablet, while the Pro 7 is a potentially more affordable version that has a lot more in common with the older Surface Pro models – so much that it actually feels a little lazy. Yes, that is a bit uncharitable of us, but comparing it even back to the Surface Pro 4, you can barely tell the difference. Three generations of the Surface Pro have come and gone with only the slightest hint of design innovation. The bezel looks large…

THE READER Carl Jepson Carl is looking for a mobile worker setup centred around a powerful but lightweight laptop, complemented by everything he needs to work wherever he is. THE EXPERT Alex Cox Writer Alex never stops working. With a family under his feet, he often needs to escape to the local coffee shop, so knows what gear can help Carl work better on the fly. 1 ACER SWIFT 7 How light does a laptop need to be? At under 900g, the magnesium-alloy Swift 7 manages to crush an incredible amount of power into a thin (under 1cm) and compact shell that will barely make a dent on the overall weight you’re carrying. A 92% screen-to-body ratio means you actually get a generous 14-inch display, with a resolution of 1920x1080.…

Today’s safari camps are hi-tech yet sustainable retreats packed with innovations that make it easier than ever to admire the world’s most majestic wild creatures, whether you’re desperate to see the ‘big five’ or hoping to spot more elusive species, such as pangolins or wild dogs. Here are our favourite spots for those of you who are keen to channel your wild side in the new year… You’ll find Great Plains’ Mara Nyika (greatplainsconservation.com), which opened in August 2019 and stays open yearround, on the western side of the 50,000-acre Naboisho Conservancy, the second largest conservancy in Kenya’s greater Maasai Mara region. Green Safaris’ Chisa Busanga Camp (greensafaris.com) opens in June 2020 in Zambia’s wildlife-filled Kafue National Park (Zambia’s oldest). It’s another sustainable camp – electric jeeps are used for…

BEATS BY DRE POWERBEATS PRO A great pair of earphones will keep you in the zone while working out – and they don’t get much better than the Beats by Dre Powerbeats Pro.

And there’s more…

It has taken a long time, but GaGu finally convinced Mrs Guru that the festering 15-year-old mattress from the bedroom had to go: in its place, one of those fancy pants squashed-in-a-box mattresses. Guru opted for a Simba Hybrid Pro (£650 after hefty discounts), given that his colleagues at T3 rate it as the best mattress in the world, and let him tell you: it is definitely a mattress. It would, at this point, be too hasty for GaGu to give it his own gold-star rating, as your author’s contorted spine was quite happy with his flea-ridden old night nest and this new one has taken a lot of getting used to. But it is certainly agreeably soft, with a good bit of firm support in contrast. The months-long bedroom…

1 Y-BRUSH Brushing your teeth in 10 seconds may sound like a terrible idea, but the Y-Brush can reach all three visible faces of all 32 of your teeth at once. Coat it with toothpaste, activate its sonic vibrations, and you’re fresh in a flash. £97, y-brush.com 2 APPLE WATCH SERIES 5 Simply the best smartwatch you can buy. The design is nigh-on perfect, with two size options fitting a majority of wrists. The Apple Watch truly straddles the line between tech and fashion, especially variations like the Gold Stainless Steel Case with Milanese Loop.

1 HP ENVY 13 As adept at entertaining as it is at accompanying you through the work day, the Envy is a light, powerful and tightly designed laptop that impresses on every front. It’s secure, too: there’s a webcam kill-switch and a built-in fingerprint reader. £1,149, hp.com 2 ONE PLUS 7 Generous both in terms of RAM, with 6GB as the minimum, and in its high-end Snapdragon 855 processor, the OnePlus 7 is the perfect Android work companion. If you’re after a premium feel at an affordable price, you won’t find much better. From £499, oneplus.com 3 SATECHI ALUMINUM MULTI-PORT ADAPTER V2 The sleek design of modern laptops has meant death to ports – so if you’re going to push that laptop to its limit, a capable USB-C hub is…

1 TESLA MODEL 3 With a massive 15-inch touchscreen, the option of all-wheel drive that reacts to the road, up to 348 miles on a single charge and enough room for five adults and a whole stack of cargo, Tesla’s most practical EV ever is truly built for the driver. From £38,500, tesla.com 2 MOSHI SNAPTO CAR MOUNT Moshi’s cool SnapTo concept started in the home, but the car is where it really shines: install its magnetic mount points inside your phone’s case, snap it to the mount, and take advantage of convenient dashboard placement and its Qi charger. £60, moshi.com 3 LUME TRAVELER 360 NO.1 Hand-made furnishings, a luxurious double bed, a full kitchen and a 40-litre fridge: the Lume Traveler gets you a lot of touring comfort in…

Wireless speakers are now a massive part of the music world. For a long time, the most successful have been in the £50-£500 bracket, but there’s a growing range of high-end wireless, multi-room speakers appearing. They come from both established hi-fi brands and from newer manufacturers melding tech prowess with more old-fashioned audio virtues. We’d pick UK hi-fi brand Naim as being the progenitor of this new breed. Its original Mu-so wireless speaker was the first to cost around £1,000 and be a big success. It also redefined what a wireless speaker could be in terms of quality of sound and design, and it still looks as stunning now as it did in 2014 This issue, we’re taking a look and a listenat that speaker’s successor called, logicallyenough, Naim Mu-so…

DEVIALET PHANTOM REACTOR 900 If the Linn looks like an exotic air purifier and the Mu-so a soundbar on steroids, this wireless speaker is almost impossible to describe without reference to sci-fi movies. It’s reminiscent of something from David Lynch’s Dune, or the drones in the Tom Cruise film Oblivion. What, you haven’t seen Oblivion? Well, take our word for it. Those two disks on either side of the Reactor 900 are actually woofers that throb and pulsate quite violently when Devialet’s speaker starts getting down to business. The tweeter is on the front beneath that ornate grille. This unique arrangement, coupled with 900(!) watts of amplification, means that the Phantom can put out a quite astounding wall of sound for something so small. You also get a surprising feeling…

1 CAMBRIDGE AUDIO ALVA TT If you’re going to kit up with a great wireless system, a great wireless turntable is a natural expansion. It can be connected over Bluetooth aptX HD, which is made for hi-res, full-quality audio. The Linn Series 3 supports aptX HD, while the Mu-So supports aptX, which is still a huge step up over regular Bluetooth. Pair it with your speaker, then you can place them in separate parts of the room. £1,499, cambridgeaudio.com 2 NAIM MU-SO QB (2ND GENERATION) If you’ve got the big Mu-so and want to expand into multi-room with another wireless speaker, Naim’s smaller Mu-so Qb is great for offices, bedrooms and so on. It has all the same wireless connectivity as the big Mu-so, and sounds fantastic for the size.…

SMART THERMOSTAT NEST LEARNING THERMOSTAT As well as working well with other Nest gear – cameras, smart speakers, smoke alarms and the like – the Learning Thermostat does exactly that: adapting over time based on the settings you program into it, to heat your home as efficiently as possible. The thermostat can handle hot water as well as your heating, knows when you leave the house and when you’re in, and is incredibly easy to configure and use. £219, store.google.com STANDALONE HEATING DYSON PURE HOT+COOL PURIFYING FAN HEATER For those times when you need targeted, on-demand heating, the Dyson Pure Hot+Cool is hard to beat. It works via an included remote control or can be operated from your phone, evenly heating a whole room very quickly indeed thanks to its…

Sony really isn’t one for code names. Sure, it held out for a while, somehow resolutely staying mute on the name of its new console, but now we know that the follow up to the PS4 is, of course, the PlayStation 5. And whether you’ve had a PlayStation since the days of that surprisingly large grey rectangle or are a recent adopter, the box that lies ahead is a tantalising future machine. Even better is the fact that we know a surprising amount about what’s to come. Spoiler: it’s going to be fun. First off, let’s take a look at what lies under the (probably) plastic hood. Similar to Microsoft, Sony is touting a thirdgeneration AMD Ryzen processor. This has eight cores of AMD’s brand-new 7nm Zen 2 microarchitecture to…

HALO INFINITE One first party launch title is official: 343 Industries is once again responsible for the return of Master Chief but with all new tech. The Slipstream Engine promises to deliver even more bombastic performances with greater fidelity. It wouldn’t be an Xbox with Halo… EVERWILD Rare’s Xbox exclusive follow-up to Sea of Thieves is all about playing in a “natural and magical world”. It’s perhaps a little too much like wishful thinking to expect it for launch, but it’s good to know the legendary studio is busying away on something charming. WATCH DOGS LEGION Trigger-happy octogenarians forming a resistance force in a violent post-Brexit London? If any game deserves the trip to next gen, it’s Ubi’s latest open world dronefest.
