LG WATCH URBANE 2ND EDITION
The first smartwatch to have 4G connectivity just got an upgrade. It now boasts a bigger 570mAh battery capacity, better screen resolution at 480 x 480 pixels, and its classic timepiece look with its hairlineetched stainless steel body is actually resistant to sand and water (IP67 rating). If your friends also use the LG smartwatch and the same network carrier, the watches can act as a walkie-talkie with unlimited range, thanks to Push-To-Talk support. It takes a nano-SIM card for 4G networks, but you can use Wi-Fi as well.
COOLEST COOLER
This is a high-tech ice cooler with interior LED lights, combined with an outdoor Bluetooth speaker and a host of other gadget-friendly tools. The cooler runs on a 20V removable battery and you can use it to charge devices using its USB port, or to power an integrated juice blender. It comes with an accessory deck for keeping your loose belongings and an integrated space for storing picnic cutlery such as plates and wine/beer bottle openers. We personally think this is a cooler with a built-in beach party.
KYOCERA BRIGADIER
FUGOO SPORT
This Bluetooth speaker with six drivers comes with sand-proofing and IP67 rating. It’s also supported by an impressive 40-hour playback. Since the speakers are mounted on four sides of this gadget, you’ll be getting 360-degree sound, so you do not have to hunt for a sweet spot when you’re busy having fun by the beach. You can even purchase the optional strap mount if you’re always on the move, or if there’s a need to plant it onto a tree trunk for better positioning.
LIQUID IMAGE MODEL 305
If you want to be in the water at the beach, these Liquid Image Model 305 dive goggles allows you to enjoy the experience and take it home, as it comes equipped with a HD (720p) camera. It has a 120-degree wideangle lens and a microSD slot for more external storage. It’s compatible with its proprietary side torch accessory (sold separately). The goggles come in green or purple accents for the touch of personality against all that blue water.
