15 LUXURY TECH Products Actually Worth The Money
Not all tech is worth the precious metal its chip is made up, so it's a good idea to cut through the hype and get to the facts on whether your new luxury tech is actually worth a big spend. We've done some souping into some of the hottest luxury tech and come up with a list of 15 luxury tech products actually worth the money. They range from media to home, from bikes to barbecues, catering to all our Luxor's tastes and preferences. Welcome to a Luxe.com, the place where future billionaires come to get inspired! If you're not subscribed yet, you're missing out. But now, let's get dialed into our list of 15 luxury tech products actually worth the money.
Number one, Goal Zero Yeti 1400 Wi-Fi Lithium Power Station. With a world teetering on an apocalyptic scenario, there's never been a better time to shore up your own power supply. The Goal Zero Yeti is just the device for the job. This totally silent and completely fume-free device is a far more stable source than a noisy fuel-chugging generator. It's designed to link into regular power for charging and works with clean energy sources like solar. Once charged, it'll keep your home appliances or electronics running for hours. It also has a Wi-Fi function, so you can monitor and control your power station from your home. They'll set you back about two thousand dollars, but can you really put a price on the convenience of never running out of phone battery life during a blackout?
Number two, Dyson Pure Hot and Cool Cryptomic Air Purifier. The next tech convenience might be considered a luxury, but the benefits are far more than just a status symbol. Many structures contain a number of toxic building materials that have been linked to cancer and other health problems. While it's not always possible to do a complete overhaul and remove every piece of offending brick and ceiling board, Dyson has produced a solution to reduce the amount of chemicals we inhale. Their Hot and Cool Cryptomic Air Purifier purifies the air while it cools or heats your home or office. It even converts the chemicals in the air to harmless water and carbon dioxide so you don't have to handle the stuff when you empty it later. The device gives you a live reading of the air quality on an LCD screen. At $750, we feel it's a luxury worth every breath.
Number three, Vintage Electric Roadster eBike. eBikes are having a heyday, and we get it because being able to switch between pedal power and electric cruising certainly has its perks. Of course, these aren't often linked to luxury, but the Vintage Electric Roadster has changed the game. Gone are the awkward electronics that look like a retrofitted home job, and enter into a muscle bike with early 20th-century elegance. It's not only a good looker; under its sleek design, it's a setup that will take you 75 miles before its next charge. It boasts a top speed of 36 miles per hour, leaving most eBikes in its dust. It fetches a price of $7,000, but the freedom of hitting the open road in this type of style is worth every penny.
Number four, iRobot Roomba i7 Plus. Not all vacuums are designed equal, and the Roomba i7 Plus is certainly leading the pack. This robot vacuum makes light work of lint balls and pet hair, and best of all, it empties itself. Don't ask us how this wizardry works, but it does! It has a proven track record as one of the few robot cleaners that truly gets the job done, so although it's a steep $800, it's worth it for the luxury of never having to hoover again. And if you think this home robot is cool, keep watching because the next helpful robot will blow your mind.
Number five, Leica Q2 camera. With mobile cameras being pretty optimal these days, buying a dedicated camera might seem like the ultimate splurge item. But you'll see that the Leica Q2 is worth the outlay if you're looking for a good travel companion that will more than one-off your mobile camera. The Leica Q2 is all that in a bag of chips. Firstly, it's travel-friendly so you don't have to feel like you're weighed down by the extra weight. It's also weatherproof, so it can survive drizzly conditions or some splashing on a river cruise. The tech specs are what really impress the pros, though. It's a full-frame sensor, offers 4K video quality, and it can take twenty snaps per second on burst mode, meaning you can capture picture-perfect backflips frame by frame. At a price point of $5,000, it's worth snapping up.
Number six, Ultimaker S5 3D printer. The luxury of being able to print the exact thingamajig your DIY project needs or just play around with 3D model building is enough to make most technophiles salivate. But the reality is that consumer 3D printers just don't live up to the fuss until now. The Ultimaker S5 is the ultimate in tech luxury. Sure, you don't need it, but when you realize how great 3D printing is, you will want it. This model can print two colors at once, you can dial in the assistance of water-soluble plastic if you're tackling a heavier print, and the touchscreen makes controlling printing functions a breeze. The best part? It handles large volume prints better than some of the professional versions. With a $6,000 price tag, it won't be able to print money, but what it can print, money can't buy. 3D printing is here to stay!
Number seven, LG Z9 8K 88-inch OLED TV. Looming somewhere in our not-too-distant future is 8K, and the LG Z9 is ready to usher in the era. This OLED TV has specs better than the top cinema screens. It's basically a gamer's wet dream with a lag speed of just seventeen point nine milliseconds. Naturally, it comes loaded with mainstream virtual assistants like Alexa and Google. The screen measures 7 feet across, or 88 inches diagonal to be exact, with 7680 by 4320 pixels, also known as 8K resolution. It's not just a pretty screen; the Z9 processes 4K and upgrades it for 8K at a breeze, with those four pretentious perfect picture quality. It's the screen to have in front of you. Steady your heart for the price tag, though. The LG Z9 will set you back $30,000. In case you didn't catch that in your non-8K quality screen, that was $30,000.
Number eight, Sennheiser MBO Sound Bar. Now that we have the most luxurious screen option wrapped up, it's time to talk about sound. Sennheiser has come out with a sound bar that has experts making a lot of noise for the power and clarity it delivers. The Sennheiser MBO Sound Bar offers the best quality Atmos sound performance out there. It delivers the best overhead sound you can get with true sound effects that are so realistic it's kind of disturbing. Surprisingly, though, all this sound magnificence is achieved with a single sound bar and no subwoofer. It doesn't go for a song, though; expect to pay in the region of $2,500.
Number nine, Sennheiser HE1 Orpheus. In 1991, Sennheiser set out to produce the best sound quality possible. They had no limit of funds, and the result was the Orpheus 1990 headphones. Less than 300 of these musical marvels were ever created, but the result was something of an urban legend, and a few remaining models are guarded under lock and key. In 2015, they regained an appetite to tackle the task of creating the ultimate headphones once again and attempted to make further improvements. Their team of the best audio engineers was given a blank check, and they produced the Orpheus HE1, the best most expensive headphone ever created. These are not the type of headphones you wear on a commute downtown; they are far from portable. The HE1s are housed in a Carrara marble case with a treasure trove of precious metals that make it all work to perfection. These aren't added for cosmetic purposes; they all lend unique acoustic properties to the HE1's design. It's constructed with platinum vaporized diaphragms and gold vaporized ceramics coming together to create an unsurpassed listening experience. There is a waiting list for these coveted headphones, and the line is backed up around the proverbial block, as the entire team of Sennheiser's best audio craftsmen takes a full day to produce just one set. This means they only produce about 280 headphones in a year. And what's the price tag for such a listening experience? Well, you can expect to pay in the region of $55,000 for a listen.
Number ten, Traeger Ironwood 650. Luxury isn't limited to the inside; head into the sunshine for a fully automated barbecue experience with the Traeger Ironwood 650. This wood pellet grill can be controlled over Wi-Fi from a mobile app. Everything can be controlled remotely; all that's left for you is to drink a beer and turn the meat from time to time. You can roast, smoke, and barbecue with the touch of a button, and the results are pro-quality. You'll have to invest about $1,200 in this luxury, but the backyard barbecue never tasted so good.
Number eleven, Worx Landroid M20V Cordless Robotic Lawnmower. If you think a robotic Roomba is cool, then this robotic lawnmower will blow your mind. This little Landroid can mow up to half an acre of your prime estate on just one charge, and it's all app-driven controls. The best part is the Landroid won't give away your secret because its quiet engine won't let on to the neighbors how you managed to keep your lawn looking so good. Forget a bulky ride-on mower; who has the time for that? Instead, invest $1,400 into this little guy, and if you like the sound of outsourcing some responsibilities to robots, check out some more robots in our video here.
Number twelve, Apple iPhone 11 Pro Max. It doesn't get higher-end on the iPhone Pro Max. It has every upgraded feature you can imagine in a smartphone, all enclosed in a beautiful steel case—the machine is made from one block of stainless steel, no corner-cutting here. It's water-resistant up to 4 meters for 30 minutes, which is particularly handy because with its three-camera capture system, you'll be the one snapping pics at the pool party. The Super Retina XDR display is winning the hearts of critics everywhere, paired with all-day battery life and super-fast charging. It's a dream come true for anyone on the move, and this is all thanks to the A13 Bionic chip, delivering power efficiency at the smoothest operating system experience at lightning speed. It might set you back $1,000, but during its lifespan, it'll put you forward about three years in time-saving.
Number thirteen, Thorens TD 907 Record Player. Nothing spells style like a turntable, and this classic mack daddy is all that and more. This hunk of music prowess offers perfect stability with its spring-buffered frame, so your priceless record collection is safe under its needle. Expect nothing less than perfect sound quality, so be sure your sound system picks up what it's putting down. Terra, we recommend a certain pair of headphones to complete the experience, but you'll need to dish out the dosh for this one: around thirteen thousand dollars for the honor of owning one. But all the critics agree it is completely worth it.
Number fourteen, DJI Mavic 2 Pro. To capture all your future travels, you're probably considering a drone. With the hype around drones, there are many cheap knockoffs and consumer products out there that just don't make the cut when it comes to quality. But the DJI Mavic 2 Pro is a cut above the rest. When it was launched—and for some time after—it has remained the best small drone on the market. You don't need to be an incredible drone flier to get the results because this model comes with an obstacle-avoidance function pre-programmed. The battery life is brilliant, and the cameras are Hasselblad uncompromising in image quality. The more than double sensor image size has increased to one inch of CMOS sensors, which is able to record over 1 billion colors. The price is relatively high at $1,800, but the sky is the limit with this drone.
Number fifteen, Sony LSPX-A1 Projector. This projector is a complete home entertainment system and sits just 9.6 inches from the wall. It casts a screen size of up to 120 inches in crisp 4K image resolution. Included in its gorgeous design are two organic glass tweeters on the front legs of the device, three mid-range speakers, and a separate subwoofer, all covering 360-degree audio. It looks nothing like a projector and everything like a piece of premium mid-century meets modern furniture. Bringing this cinematic experience home will cost you thirty thousand dollars, but the bragging rights will be priceless.
And with that, Luxors, we're at the end. What luxury technology do you think is most worth the spend, and which luxury technology items have you seen that are just a step too far? Let us know in the comments. And for sticking with us until the end, here's your bonus.
Not all luxury tech products are worth their weight in gold, and luxury cabling is certainly an example of this. There's no end to the embellishments brands will add on to audio-visual cables to try and give them a new spin and a massive price tag, but there is little to no benefit to the consumer. The AudioQuest Diamond 1 meter braided HDMI cable, retailing for $1,000, is no exception. According to a Forbes article, the claim by AudioQuest that their miraculous HDMI prevents something called jitter is completely baseless. Instead of this nonsense, keep your hard-earned cash and spend it on some luxury tech that's actually worth the money.
