Gadgets of the week: Redmi Note 17 Pro Max, EDT Luma Origin Orange and Oral-B iO2

Redmi Note 17 Pro Max

Redmi’s new Note 17 Max max comes with a 10000mAh battery with 100W HyperCharge, a Snapdragon 6 Gen 5 processor, a TrueColour AMOLED display and 50MP AI cameras onboard. I could get about 3 to 3.5 days of usage on a single charge. The phone also has an IP69 K dust and water-resistant rating, making it tremendously durable. Gorilla Glass Victus 2 offers flagship-grade protection for the screen. You also get up to 12+12 GB of RAM with DDR5X RAM + UFS 4.1 storage for seamless use. The 50 MP main camera is excellent and shoots top-level photos and video( OIS+EIS 4K/60fps). The display is a highlight here with 3500 nits brightness, 120Hz refresh rate and 12-Bit colour. Sound is stellar with dual stereo speakers and Dolby Atmos. To top it all, Xiaomi’s HyperOS 3 is fast, smooth and stable. The Note 17 Pro Max comes with 4 years of OS updates. A solid mid-range smartphone from Redmi! ₹49,999.

EDT Luma Origin Orange

EDT’s incredible air fryer is a Non-Toxic PureGlass Air fryer with dual bowls (4.5L +2.5L) and NutriRetain tech on board. Luma is easy to set up and offers safe and transparent cooking where you can view the dishes while they’re being cooked. There’s a nice LED panel that displays time and settings, and I found the modular dual bowl system easy to use for different batch sizes. Luma also offers recipes over WhatsApp (over 2000) as well as 5 easy presets which let you air fry, bake, roast, grill and reheat. Results were excellent across the board, where I managed to achieve some of the best roasts and grills I’ve ever concocted. Luma is also quieter compared to other air-fryers and easier to clean and store. EDT’s LUMA makes everyday cooking an easier task while maintaining safety. ₹11,999.

Oral-B iO2

Oral-B’s new iO2 brings flagship iO Magnetic tech to all households. iO2 is powered by a frictionless magnetic motor that delivers concentrated energy to the bristle tips for a more efficient, effective clean. Oral-B’s round brush head uses gentle micro-vibrations to remove 100% more plaque than manual toothbrushes. The brush also sports an automatic pressure sensor, three tailored modes and comes with a charging unit. I’ve been using the iO series of brushes for close to 5 years now and find them the best for oral hygiene at home; the iO2 offers a great price point to ensure that everyone can have the best possible brushing experience at home. ₹3,999.
