NOKIA HEALTH THERMO
The Thermo gives you accurate
results on your fever so you
know just how ill you really are.
Just when you thought they couldn’t make
anything else connected, Nokia Health
(formerly Withings) goes and makes a
connected thermometer, allowing you to
keep track of that fever. And like the Body
Cardio scales, the digital thermometer links
to your Nokia Health account via the app
and keeps tabs on your temperature over
time. And with 16 infrared sensors taking
4,000 measurements, it’s accuracy is a game
changer for anyone who often falls ill.

TRIMMER
Philips' OneBlade trim-
mer and shaver can
be used anywhere on
the body and is super
portable

keeping yourself preened is
at the top of any health and
wellbeing program. One of the
best is the Philips OneBlade,
a hybrid shaver and trimmer
that can trim, edge, and shave
any length of hair anywhere
on your body and face. There's
easy click-on combs for a fast
trimming action in all the right
places, as well as a dual-sided
