Vacuum cleaners are so not an Indian thing. We dearly love our house helps and the good ol’ jhaadoo (broom). In any situation, we would be hard pressed to let them go. But that doesn't mean vacuum cleaners aren't making a case for themselves today. I got to test out the Realme Techlife Handheld Vacuum Cleaner recently, and I have to say, I am impressed. What was once a back-breaking chore was made quite enjoyable. Priced at Rs 7,999, this vacuum cleaner is affordable, compact and a low-risk investment with high returns. Over the weeks that I used it, there were multiple home renovations, furniture being moved and even a building that was pulled down in the vicinity. The presence of dust was constant, and this gadget couldn’t have come at a better time. Easy to assemble and super intuitive, I spent more time charging it than reading the user manual, and it still tends to run out of steam at the most ill-opportune time. But we’ll get to that later.

Hero MotoCorp’s electrification journey begins in 2022, with the world’s biggest two-wheeler player set to launch its first electric scooter by March. While the e-scooter space is witnessing spectacular growth, Hero MotoCorp’s core business still lies in the motorcycle segment, and given the dearth of e-motorcycles in the country at present, it’s a valid question to ask – will Hero also roll out an electric motorcycle of its own? The answer to that, at least for the foreseeable future, is no, as Hero sees present-day limitations making e-motorcycles unfeasible on several fronts. Motorcycles – which are heavily favoured by the Indian masses for their daily commutes – are more efficiency-oriented than scooters, and have the kind of power and high travel range to appeal to two-wheeler buyers, especially to those who live beyond urban settings. Additionally, there’s the cost factor – in Hero’s case, its most popular models, the Splendor and HF series, are also its most affordable models....

It's not every day that someone -- and this is OnePlus we're talking about, not just any someone -- offers up a glow-in-the-dark phone inspired by an arcade legend. The OnePlus Nord 2 x PAC-MAN Edition phone, and yes, that's quite a mouthful, promises to be fairly unique at launch. Specs are similar to the existing Nord 2 in that you're getting the same screen and cameras, and the 12/256 GB variant, but rather than just slap some Pac-Man branding on the back and in the UI, OnePlus says it's gone and gamified the entire experience. The phone is littered with subtle nods to the pizza-faced hero and inserting games, challenges, and various bits of exclusive content. Oh, and there's also that glow-in-the-dark back panel courtesy of a phosphorescent dual-layer design that shows off an isometric maze inspired by this arcade classic. Why’d they do it? Well, in OnePlus’ own words, “We wanted to deliver the same incredible specs and features you love from Nord 2 in a...

The all-new Suzuki S-Cross has made its global debut in Europe ahead of its launch in select markets overseas in the coming weeks. With the first-gen SX4 S-Cross having come out all the way back in 2013, the second-generation model makes its world premiere almost nine years later, and going by the pictures, this one doesn’t adopt its predecessor’s crossover philosophy.

While the outgoing S-Cross looked soft, rounded and more like a beefed-up large hatchback, the 2022 S-Cross bins that design philosophy and opts for a more upright, SUV-like front-end, with the large piano black grille, double-bar chrome band sporting the big ‘S’ logo and three LED position lamps in the headlights adding some attitude to the S-Cross’ face; something the original always lacked.
