If you want your bathroom to be more bat cave than Stone Age, it’s time for you to upgrade your gadget game. But with tonnes of tools to choose from, how’s a guy to know what to go for? So here’s our roundup of the top five gadgets that will change your life – or at least make it easier…
Philips OneBlade
If you’re after something that can trim, shave and shape any length of hair, this little guy is gonna be your new best mate. With this gadget, you’re guaranteed a shave that’s faster (with a cutter that moves 200 times per second – jeez!) and safer, thanks to a dual-protection system. So say hello to the most comfortable shave you’re ever gonna get. It also includes three stubble combs that’ll help you trim your scruff down to the millimetre – 1mm, 3mm or 5mm, to be precise. And with the contour-follow feature, you’ll be able to reach all areas of your face and neck so easily. If you’re all about the edge, you can straighten up your style in seconds with the dual-sided blade, which allows you to shave in both directions and see every hair you’re cutting.

Oral B Genius 9000 Electric Toothbrush
We’re not exaggerating when we say this is one techy toothbrush. If you’re like the rest of us, zoning out when the dentist tries to teach you the proper way to brush, this dental doohickey will do 99% of the work for you. With a brush head that’s specially designed to surround each tooth, you’ll get a super-thorough clean and be able to kiss goodbye to plaque. The best bit? You can hook up the toothbrush to your phone, using an app that gives your personalised brushing feedback. Yes, we’re serious. You’ll know when you’re brushing too hard or even when you’ve missed a spot, with the help of innovative position-detection technology. Welcome to bionic brushing.

With grades 1 to 4 to choose from and a separate battery-powered trimmer (great for shaping up your style around your ears and neckline), you can easily achieve that custom cut you’re after without a trip to the barber’s.
