Tech for X-Mas

What would your tech editors do, if they were crapping money?

Samsung KN55S9C OLED TV

If you’ve ever thought that HD pictures were not enough, fear no more, the Samsung OLED TV that uses organic self-emitting pixels would blow your mind away this Christmas giving you the best quality, surpassing even the best LCD TVs. This TV doesn’t come cheap, expect to be paying an average price of nine grand, however if you consider the price per pixel it almost makes it worth it!

Archipod

This little beauty beats your average shed, that’s for sure, if you fancy chilling in your garden this Christmas but want to keep warm in this cosy pod with its inbuilt fiberglass insulation you wont be disappointed.
