Your Guide To The Season’s Hottest Tech Gadgets And Apps

The holidays are right around the corner and whether you’re buying gifts for others or shopping for yourself, there are likely at least a few techy items on your list. Before you start filling up your Amazon cart or trekking the aisles of your local Best Buy, do your homework.

Already here or coming soon

A recent article from The Verge provided a summary of several intriguing gadgets that have either already been released or will soon be available for purchase. From video games to e-readers, here are a few of the most highly anticipated items of the season:

• DJI Air 3S: If you’re in the market for a drone, this one has a lot to offer … from improved safety features to better image quality.
• Kindle Colorsoft Signature Edition: It might not be the best all-around e-reader, but if you enjoy comics this one might be right for you.
• New iPad Mini: Apple products tend to evolve over time, and with the latest iPad Mini, that means a device that is both modern and familiar.
• Analogue 3D Console: Nostalgic gamers will enjoy this Nintendo 64 reboot fitted with 4K resolution, available soon for preorder.

And there’s plenty of software buzz to complement the hardware hype.

Inform, educate, entertain

We turn to technology for assistance in almost every aspect of our lives these days, and there’s always something waiting to be added to the list. One of the most notable recent introductions is the Eater app for iOS, which can help iPhone users make informed dining selections. And those aforementioned Nintendo fans will likely get a kick out of the new Super Mario Party Jamboree game.

If you’re just looking for something to watch, consider the documentary “Fanatical: The Catfishing of Tegan and Sara” or the second season of “Shrinking.”
