From now on, we’re buying pocket-sized gadgets

In this tech-savvy world, we often turn to gadgets to make our everyday lives convenient and even fun. While a lightweight laptop is pretty common with many working people, our arsenal can also extend to cameras, speakers, external hard drives, and so on. Luckily, these items we mentioned also have mini versions so you can take them anywhere without feeling like you’re lugging around a huge weight.

So whether you’re prepping for a presentation or you just want to entertain yourself, you can check out our list below.

JBL Go Portable Bluetooth Speaker

No need to carry bulky speakers for presentations. You can use this pocket-sized one by connecting your phone or laptop via bluetooth and USB. This will also be useful for hands-free speaker calls while you drive. My dad has this and I promise you, the sound is almost high-definition. Available at Bonifacio High Street.

Fujifilm Instax Mini 90

The regular Instax Mini can take up a lot of space in your bag despite being a portable camera.
