Trending 2017 speaker

Harman Kardon Invoke Smart Speaker
The Harman Kardon Invoke is currently the only smart speaker powered by Microsoft's virtual assistant Cortana. It can not only answer questions, set reminders, and control smart home appliances, but it can also make hands free Skype calls from a connected Microsoft account. Available in silver or dark gray, the speaker has an all metal body that's quite possibly the most elegant option on this list.


The Invoke smart speaker is also a contender for delivering the best sound quality of all speakers in this roundup. Its audio hardware setup includes a total of  eight components three woofers, three tweeters, and two passive radiators. Combined, they deliver a sonic experience that even discerning audiophiles will appreciate.

Amazon eco
The all new Amazon Echo has a sleek design and much better sound quality than its predecessor. The device's Dolby tuned pair of audio drivers delivers a more robust bass, while seven built in microphones ensure that Alexa will hear you better than ever. 

The available finishes for the speaker include great looking fabric and wood choices, which will enable it to seamlessly blend into the decor of any room. Amazon will offer you a $50 discount if you purchase a pack of three speakers. 

JBL Link 20 Wireless Smart Speaker
The JBL Link 20 is a great waterproof speaker, powered by the excellent Google Assistant. With a duo of powerful 50millimeter transducers on board, the Link 20 has excellent sound quality. 

The Link 20 also includes Chromecast and multiroom audio support, as well as Bluetooth 4.2 connectivity, in case you want to enjoy music wirelessly while away from home. The battery life of the speaker is up to 10 hours. 


Available in black or white, the JBL Link 20 speaker has a cool looking fabric covered body with an IPX7 rating for water and dust resistance. The speaker is part of a JBL smart speaker lineup, which consists of a smaller Link 10, as well as a larger, non-portable Link 300.

Home max
The Google Home Max is a Google Assistant powered smart speaker that packs a mind blowing audio punch, courtesy of a duo of 4.5 inch subwoofers and two 0.7 inch custom tweeters. In addition to Wi Fi connectivity with Chromecast and multiroom audio support, the Google Home Max also offers you the option to pair your favorite devices via Bluetooth.


With a $399 price tag, the Google Home Max is the most expensive option on this list.  However, its amazing audio quality and a bundled one year YouTube Music/YouTube Red subscription make it well worth the splurge. 

Blast Wireless Smart Speaker
The Ultimate Ears Blast speaker has cool design, Amazon Alexa support, and excellent Bluetooth wireless range. The sound quality of the Blast is excellent, thanks to a duo of active audio drivers and two passive radiators for thumping bass delivery. In case you need an even more powerful audio experience, consider the larger ue megablast instead.


The UE Blast can deliver up to 12 hours of Bluetooth audio on a battery charge. The UE Blast is IP67 waterproof, so you can fully submerge it underwater. Best of all, it comes with an industry leading two year warranty. There are four colors to choose from black, white, blue, and merlot.

Drone trend 2017

DJI Mavic Pro DJI’s Mavic Pro can be summed up in three words: portable and powerful. Capable of collapsing down to as small as a bottle of water, DJI Mavic Pro is a fantastic choice for quadcopter fans. A new OcuSync transmission system will offer up to 4.3 miles of range, 40 mph speed and a flight time around 27 minutes, thanks to a powerful battery. The lengthy range away from the base controller is aided by GPS and satellite to help maintain precise location control. Thanks to sensor redundancy, the inclusion of obstacle avoidance will help the Mavic Pro dodge anything that could knock it out of the sky. Visually, the 3.27 x 7.8 x 3.27 inch Mavic Pro looks and feels different from DJI’s wildly popular existing quadcopter line and has more contour and angular shapes.

Shorter legs give the Mavic Pro the appearance of landing on its belly, and the rear arms pivot downward to tuck i...

Nintendo Switch Attribute some of the Switch’s appeal to its namesake trick you can carry it around and play anywhere, or detach the controllers and play it on a big TV. That flexibility makes it appealing to frequent flyers. Among those spotted with Switches: musicians Ben Folds and Ariana Grande, wrestler John Cena, and rapper Danny Brown. For us, it comes down to the familiar names in the game library, which, thankfully, developers didn’t carelessly exploit. The latest Zelda, Mario Kart, and Sonic are all fantastic experiences that just happen to have nostalgia appeal.
