Looking for a hot new gadget to play with, or something high-tech to spruce up your home and impress your friends? We’ve picked some of the most innovative pieces in luxury tech this year…
Aster by Vertu
Handmade in London, Vertu isn’t shy of price tags… or superfluous features. The Aster runs on Android and will set you back at least £3,400 but does come with Dolby Digital Plus virtual surround sound (for better atmospheric effects), “a world of exclusive lifestyle experiences” and a specialist concierge who should be able to help you with any buyer’s remorse.
