Avegant Glyph
How about a head-mounted personal home cinema when you’re pulling the next long-haul flight? Although it looks like a pair of headphones, pull the Glyph’s headband down across your eyes and you’ll see the equivalent of a 65-inch TV screen from a few metres away. It plays any video on your phone. Available at selfridges.com/HK (HK$4,750, US$608)
Seven luxe gadgets to take the strain out of business travel

Belkin Cinema Leather Folio Case
Here’s a quick tip if you want to watch movies on a tablet in your airline seat; angle it towards you by resting it on a jumper placed on your tray table. If that’s too lowbrow, this case for the iPad (H$519) creates multiple viewing angles. Available at 1outlets.hk

InkCase i7 Plus
Why travel with a Kindle e-reader and a large screen phone? This upcoming case for the iPhone 7 Plus (HK$1,242) has a 5.2-inch e-ink screen on the back, so you can read during a long-haul flight without draining your smartphone. It’s also waterproof. Available at oaxis.com
Seven mobile phone stands for watching TV and films on the go, both for iPhones and Android smartphones

Sennheiser PXC 550
With wired or wireless Bluetooth connection to a smartphone and a 30-hour battery life, these luxe noise-cancelling headphones (HK$3,099) create a deliciously addictive silence that makes them perfect for long-haul travel. They are also surprisingly small when collapsed into its carry case. Available at hmv.com.hk

Lockjaww
This media device holder is ideal for those who like to travel light and rely on their own smartphone for entertainment. Able to grip onto any latched tray table, the pocket-sized Lockjaww (HK$156) grips to the sides of your phone for easy eye-level viewing. Available at amazon.com

Knomo London Knomad Air
This may not directly help your in-flight viewing experience, but it certainly will help you carry everything you need to enhance that experience. When you’re travelling with a lot of tech, it makes sense to stay organised. So for ease of travel, this leather clutch (HK$1,280) has room for an iPad Air, a smartphone, pen, credit cards/passport and even a portable power bank. It also has microfibre-lined pockets for protection. Available at hktvmall.com
