Enjoy the karaoke experience in the comfort of your home with the AC Ryan Moment.

This karaoke soundbar comes with a built-in mixer, subwoofer, and a microphone that connects wirelessly to the soundbar.

Instead of a song library that may eventually become outdated, the Moment syncs with apps or websites, such as Spotify and YouTube, on your mobile devices, giving it an unlimited song library.

Setting up the device is a breeze with its plug-and-play design.

You can adjust the treble, bass and volume levels easily with the companion Moment app (iOS and Android).

The Epson EH-TW5350 packs several high-end features despite its affordable entry-level price.

Its frame interpolation feature can make action-packed videos look smoother by inserting new frames to reduce blurring.

This projector is able to convert 2-D content to 3-D. It comes with active 3D glasses that connect to the projector via Bluetooth instead of infrared, reducing possible interference from objects in the room.

Using Intel WiDi and Miracast, you can use the Epson to project the contents of compatible mobile devices or laptops on the screen.

Epson is giving IT Show buyers $50 in FairPrice vouchers, two pairs of 3-D glasses and a trolley.

You can monitor your home while you are away with the new Arlo Q security camera from Netgear. The Arlo Q can record audio and video in crystal-clear 1080p resolution. A built-in speaker and microphone lets you listen in and talk to those at home via the Internet.

Movement and sound will alert the Arlo Q to take a short video or a photo, which will then be uploaded to Netgear's cloud servers. You will also be sent an e-mail and a notification on your mobile device from the companion Arlo app (iOS and Android).

The Arlo Q includes free seven -day cloud storage of up to 1GB, though you can pay a monthly fee for continuous recording.

Not only is it more convenient, this smart digital lock can send a notification to your smartphone when registered users, such as your family members, arrive at home.

The Samsung door lock works with Bluetooth-enabled smartphones, including flagship models from Apple, LG and Samsung.


Samsung 65" UHD TV (65JU6400K)

Samsung's latest UHD TV boasts a wider range of colours than previous models and produces images that look closer to real life.

With its UHD or 4K screen resolution, this Samsung TV has a resolution four times higher than a standard Full-HD display, leading to even greater clarity. To address the lack of 4K content, the Samsung TV can enhance lower-resolution videos to look almost like native 4K content.

Using Samsung Easy Sharing, you can share content wirelessly between the TV and a compatible mobile device.
