Four cool work gadgets to get you back in the nine-to-five groove.
Pencil 53
 
Price: B2,990
 
Available at: Groov Store, Kanchanapisek Rd., 080-201-
 
Working with the Paper app (iPad only), this stylus allows you to accurately write and draw on your iPad. Connect to your iPad via Bluetooth to jot notes, or even create drawings or paintings. The stylus also has a pretty impressive battery, lasting up to a month on a single, 90-minute charge.
 
Cheero Powerbanks
 
Price: B2,190
 
Available at: .life, 3/F, Siam Paragon, Rama I Rd., 02-610-
9884-6. BTS Siam. www.dotlife.co
 
You’d be forgiven if you couldn’t tell that this little cardboard-looking curio is actually a powerbank. It’s not a shabby one either, packing over 10k milli-amp hours—that’s equivalent to four full charges for an iPhone and one full charge for an iPad. It’s probably not the easiest powerbank to carry around, but darn if it isn’t cute.

Microsoft Surface Pro 3
 
Price: B29,500-69,900 depending on specs
 
Available at: Banana IT, 4/F, Siam Discovery, Rama I Rd.,
02-658-0480-81. BTS National Stadium. www.bananait.com
 
Long gone are the halcyon days of laptops—except when you need to get actual work done. That’s where this product comes in, fusing the best of both tablets and laptops. Running on Windows 8 means this tablet can run all the programs you’d normally only see on laptops, such as Microsoft Office and Adobe Photoshop. The cheapest model, costing B29,900, comes with the lackluster Intel Core i3 processor and a measly 64GB of storage. We recommend picking one of the Core i5 models instead, starting at B35,500.
 
Transcend StreamJet Portable Wireless Drive
 
Price: B2,490
 
Available at: Seed Camera, 3/F, Gateway Ekamai, Sukhumvit
Rd., 02-108-2728. BTS Ekkamai. www.seedcamera.com
 
As anyone who owns an iPad or iPhone can testify, getting files off these devices and onto a computer can be a hassle. With this portable hard drive, you can instantly transfer data from your devices through a simple Bluetooth connection. The drive also works the other way around, allowing you to open files stored on the drive with your smart device.
