Men found an interest in boys toys ever since they started getting more disposable time, thanks to better technology ironically. Men tend to get up to mischief if they haven’t got something to keep them occupied, and gadgets do this job beautifully, although they can sometimes cause more mischief to occur. Here are 3 of the latest and greatest boys toys to hit the market, and any men reading will likely want to get their hands on them straight away.


Super Phone
. The mobile (cell) phones you get these days are far more advanced than the phones of old and have some amazing bits of tech built in. However, there is soon to be a phone released in Korea that does the job of an advanced pen knife as well. According to the makers it will include a knife, bottle opener, pen, compass, scissors and even an electric razor, making them ideal gifts for men.

Window Cleaning Bot. Men don’t like doing house work, its as simple as that. This gadget thorough makes part of it as easy as pie. This new small bot sticks itself to glass using suction pads and then moves about the whole surface area, cleaning as it goes with rotating moisture scrubbers. The unit itself is only the size of a match box and runs on batteries so can be carried around in the pocket. These gadgets also make great gifts for her, because let’s face it, women like to be lazy sometimes as well.

Double Video Shades. Sun glasses that have video screens on the inside have been on the market for a while and people have enjoyed a bit of up close entertainment. However the latest glasses invention has screens on both sides of the lens, meaning you can project images outwards as well.This comes in very handy when in a class room or a meeting when you want to watch a bit of TV without anyone knowing. You can happily enjoy an episode of Friends on your inward-pointing and show the rest of the word a video of your eyes, wide awake and listening intently on the outward-pointing ones. Genius!

Sound systems have come along way since they became publicly available. From the days of all crowding around the radio to catch the odd note, to blasting out tunes that can cause earthquakes. Getting a sound so loud that it deafens you is not the best idea though, and people are more interested in achieving a better quality of sound from systems that offer better usability. So what are the most important developments and gadgets in modern home sound provision?

Wireless Speakers.Whilst wireless speakers have been around for a while now, they have only quite recently been produced to a quality that matches those with wires. Having wireless speakers means that your music can be played in whichever location you desire, without the need to have miles of cable. They are perfect for parties where you can play music in every room without having lots of different tunes playing and the annoying disruption this causes.

Super Sub Woofers. These are basically add-ons to a sound system that provide large amounts of base. They are very popular in cars and the general rule is the bigger the sub woofer, the more powerful the base can be…even to the point of shattering windows.Super sub woofers however, cleverly provide equal amounts of base power, but are greatly reduced in size, meaning they fit nicely into the corner of any room…or car for that matter. If you are brave, you could even hook one up to your stereo and use it as a very effective alarm clock.

Surround Sound. No true music fan can go back to listening to mono sound once they have experienced surround sound.Surround sound was first brought to us by a company called ‘Polk Audio’ back in the 80’s and works by projected different elements of a sound from various speakers placed around a room. All of these sounds then combine in the centre of a room and give a ’surround sound’ experience.Although surround sound has been available to the mass-markets for almost two decades, so many people are yet to embrace the technology and get the most out of their sound.
