T3 Awards 2020

FULL TILT Not only is the sumptuous touchscreen ergonomically tilted for easy access but it also conceals a 28.5mm air intake that draws in cooler air and boosts the laptop’s already seriously impressive cooling Touchscreen laptops are ten a penny these days and even secondary displays aren’t the most unusual sight. But with the ROG Zephyrus Duo 15, Asus has taken this tech and shaped it specifically for gaming, making one of the most versatile gaming laptops we’ve ever seen. While the main screen can be your choice of 4K 60Hz or a 1920x1080 300Hz panel – aimed at content creation and twitch gameplay respectively – the second screen is a 60Hz 3840x1100 touchscreen that raises up by 13 degrees to be a handy panel for third-party apps or in-game overlays.

Elsewhere in the issue, we get hands on with the latest tech, including Apple’s reasonably priced but powerful iPhone SE and DJI’s eminently agile and able drone, the Mavic Air 2.

1 MICROSOFT SURFACE BOOK 3 From £1,599, microsoft.com Part tablet, part laptop, the third version of this dockable hybrid isn’t a case of Microsoft reinventing the wheel. In fact, the company has kept the minimalist outward design exactly the same. That’s fine. It got it pretty spot on in the first place; the segmented hinge is brilliant, the 13.5/15-inch screen is high in detail (while a little fat in the bezels) and the base and lid are a brushed aluminium delight. It’s a classy machine whether you’re using it for work or play, arguably just as iconic as a MacBook. Looks aside, those seeking a new laptop will find a host of convincers elsewhere in the package. You can configure the Surface Book 3 with up to 32GB RAM, it has Microsoft’s fastest-ever…

The wellness supplement of choice for male and female supermodels is making its way into the mainstream, and it’s a far cry from your bog standard Holland & Barrett range. Honestly, the price tag on this ‘ultimate supplement’, as Lyma founder Lucy Goff calls it, would dwarf even the more higher-end bespoke vitamins. Lyma’s all-in-one supplement contains eight patented ingredients, including the antioxidant Lycopene, Ashwagandha (an adaptogen), Vita-algae (for immune and muscle function), and Cognizin (a nootropic), all formulated to create synergy between your emotional, physical and mental state. While Lyma lists stronger hair and nails and smoother, more hydrated skin as its big beauty benefits, it also strives to enhance your sleep, reduce stress levels and boost your energy. If you have the budget and the time to try…
