DAY 7: DRONES/GADGETS
DJI MINI PRO 4 – $1,119
DJI has released the Mini 4 Pro – a 249g drone that manages to pack in a premium camera and omni-directional obstacle sensing in a chassis that fits in the palm of your hand.
Weighing less than 250g means the DJI Mini 4 Pro is exempt from drone regulations in most parts of the world and doesn’t require registration.
And, according to CASA (Civil Aviation Safety Authority), being under 250g allows users to fly safely within the 5.5km range of a controlled airspace.
EMBER MUG – From $130
Ember is a designer temperature-controlled mugs in Australia so customers can keep their hot beverages at the right temperature from the first sip to the last.
Ember has a range of smart drinkware which come in three different sizes and use patented technology to control the temperature of your coffee or tea and keep it between 50-degrees and 62.5-degrees Celsius.
Under the hood, the Ember mugs utilise the latest battery technology and can maintain temperatures for up to one and a half hours with the Ember Mug 2 (10oz – 295ml) and Ember Cup and 80 minutes with the larger Ember mug 2 (14oz – 414ml).
GRID STUDIO – from $211
Grid Studio has earned a reputation for quality after offering old iPhones as works of art. This would be an ideal gift for someone who would appreciate and enjoy the nostalgic and artistic presentation of a Grid Studio product.
Their most popular products are framed iPhones going back to the original 2007 model and it has now expanded to the original iPad and the original iPod as well.
There is also a range of portable gaming devices that have been immortalised in the same way.

DJI AIR 3 – From $1,699
Drones are going down the same path as smartphones when it comes to cameras – having just one is no longer enough. The new DJI Air 3 has two dual primary cameras.

Onboard is a wide-angle camera and a medium telephoto with up to 3x zoom that can produce stunning 48-megapixel images and 4K HDR videos at 60 frames per second.
The DJI Air 3 has a foldable design so when you’re done the props tuck away to make the drone a compact size – its about the size of a 1L water bottle.

Cricut has unveiled its latest smart cutting machine – the Joy Xtra – which gives users the power to start creating stickers, labels, customised t-shirts and much more straight out of the box.
