10 Unique Tech Items You Should Own
The Jetsons couldn't have even imagined the future of tech like this.
Taking politics out of the equation, at some point in the last 10 years, we arrived in the future. Touch screens became the standard. Everything is wireless and rechargable. These days, you can cook and adjust your thermostat with just the push of a button in an app—from anywhere in the world. You can check in on your pets with some conveniently-placed cameras. Clapping isn’t even the coolest way to turn lights on anymore.
With these 10 unique tech items, you can upgrade your look and step into the future the Jetsons imagined—all of which are under $100. These are items you didn’t know you needed—possibly items you didn’t even know existed—but they were invented to make your life easier, more streamlined and less cluttered. Ranging from wireless beanies to beautifully designed charging docks, electric fryers that don’t even require oil and more, any item on this list would make a perfect gift to a close friend or coworker, but you shouldn’t ever rule out treating yourself.
The Beanie With Speakers and A Microphone
Why We Picked It: Available in grey and black, this stylish beanie stands well on its own, but gets even better when you consider the luxury of built in speakers and headphones. It’s so much more convenient to remember your hat than it is to remember where you put your AirPods or spend the entire length of your commute trying to untangle your wired headphones. The built-in battery is rechargable and lasts for 4 hours of continuous play or 30 hours of standby time.
The Handwarmers You Don’t Have To Repurchase Every Time You Want To Use Them
Why We Picked It: Spring may be on its way but it’s not here yet. So many of us jump the gun at the slightest bit of sunshine and end up underdressed for the weather. Each device creates double sided heat that you can stick in any pocket or safely hold. There are 3 pre-set temperatures to choose from for your comfort and the device will turn off automatically after an hour. Use them the all-too-cold spring baseball games and take them back out next winter, so you never have to buy disposable handwarmers again.
