Review: The world's first Full HD tri-fold portable projector
Though Aurzen has been in the projected home entertainment game for a wee while now, I think it's fair to say that the brand didn't really become a global sensation (as such) until last year's launch of the Zip. This (still available) little marvel completely reworked the portable pico projector formula, shaping up as a double-hinge, three-part-folding magic box with built-in power and onboard sound.

Wall-hugging 4K tri-laser projector is super bright and snappy
Let's face it, even the prettiest lifestyle projectors can rub the living-room vibe the wrong way. UST designs minimize that jarring effect by snuggling up close to the wall, and specialist AWOL Vision has a bright new bundle of joy that's almost ready for action. For a wee while now, folks who cable smart projectors to their games consoles for big-screen action may have felt a little frustrated by the results.
Fast-refresh tri-laser projector brings motion clarity to global screens
As we mentioned in our recent coverage of the XGIMI and AWOL Vision ultra-short-throw projectors recently, the race is on to get a 4K/120-Hz model out into the wild. JMGO has already had a non-wall-hugger available in China for a while, now it's up for global pre-order. Console gamers cabled up to either of the two IRIS Series smart projectors currently waiting in the wings for general release will probably benefit most from the zippy frame rates here.
RGB Laser TV throws super bright, super snappy big-screen visuals
From the high-end aesthetic and high-tech internals of its lifestyle projectors, it's easy to imagine that AWOL Vision has been in the home entertainment space for a long while. But the crowdfunding favorite is still a relative baby. We've featured many of its own ultra-short-throw models on our pages, along with longer-throw units from sister Valerion range. And I've even been fortunate to put some of them through their paces on my review bench.

Eye-popping turntable flips vinyl into a vertical spin
Though streaming rules the listening roost, physical formats like vinyl are growing in popularity. If you want to wow your friends while spinning your latest album acquisition, vertical turntables are sure to fit the bill – such as the Ruka TD-1. I stream when I'm just in the mood for background music – such as while working. But if I want to get down to serious listening, I power up the turntable and plonk myself in the sonic sweet spot between my floorstanders.
Triple-battery adventure commuter puts motor power at the crank
The excellent triple-battery trekking ebike I took for quite a few test rides last year is being joined by a similar-but-different new model. The Nomads Pro is still aimed at riders who want to go beyond city limits but swaps rear-hub pedal-assist for a tasty mid-drive motor. The regular Nomads rolls with a 250-W motor offering three levels of pedal-assist out of the box (though two more can be unlocked through a companion app), and puts 45 Nm 33 lb.ft) of torque on tap.
Review: Gorgeous triple-laser projector takes home cinema to the Max
A beautiful box of smart-entertainment goodness turned up at my door last year from Valerion, following a successful Kickstarter and subsequent consumer launch. That was the VisionMaster Pro 2 4K triple-laser lifestyle projector, and now I've been sent the series flagship to play with. But first, a brief catchup. Valerion is the sister brand to AWOL Vision – which manufactures ultra-short-throw smart projectors, such as the excellent Aetherion Max.
