    35 Intriguing Gadgets And Tech Products You'll Want To Try

    If you are particular about your coffee, this new temperature-detecting thermos is about to warm your caffeinated heart.

    1. A flexible power strip complete with three outlets, two USB ports, and a five-foot extension cable designed so you can fit it into weird nooks and crannies around or under your desk while still being able to plug in bulky chargers.

    Promising review: "I rarely write a review (this is the second in the past few years). One of the best purchases in a long time. Nice design and very practical. It solves all of my problems as it can go any direction. It's worth every penny. I turned around and bought two more. I am about to buy my fourth one. Love this!" —Pond P. 

    Get it from Amazon for $19.99 (available in four colors). 

    2. A temperature-detecting coffee thermos for anyone who likes to get particular about their morning cuppa — not only does this keep drinks hot or cold for 24 hours, but it will report exactly *how* hot or cold the entire time with a digital display. It also functions as a water bottle, and is 100% leakproof!

    View of top of lid showing the digital temperature display

    Promising review: "I ordered one based on reviews and it did not disappoint. I like my coffee HOT and my water COLD, and this lets me know exactly what to expect. It keeps ice for HOURS, as in well over 24 if the lid is on and over 12 even if the lid is off. Best feature ... I've managed to drop it TWICE in as many days and although the top is a little scratched (I had a sleeve from a different bottle that almost comes up to the lid), thermometer still works. Still leakproof. Couldn't ask for a better thermos." —Kelly H. 

    Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in six colors). 

    3. A set of affordable, highly popular wireless Bluetooth earbuds that make *excellent* AirPod dupes, except arguably better — these are completely waterproof (like, you can fully take them in the shower) and come with several silicone earbuds to get the best fit possible.

    These come with a wireless charging case that provides up to 14 hours of charge (with the earbuds able to play for four-plus hours with each full charge). 

    Promising review: "Best decision! These are the greatest headphones ever! I saw them on TikTok months ago and added them to my wishlist. I got a new phone that doesn't have the headphone port so I decided it was time to finally buy them. They are amazing and I probably won't ever take them out of my ears! 😂" —Katlyn D Arnold

    Get it from Amazon $19.99+ (get this price by clipping the 15% off coupon on the product page; available in five colors).

    4. An adorable wireless portable charger so you can text in the group chat with reckless abandon during all your adventures without worrying about your phone croaking right before it's time to summon an Uber.

    Promising review: "The holy grail of portable chargers!!! I was traveling to Disney for vacation and knowing me, I would drain my battery with just taking pictures alone. I wanted a portable battery but didn’t want a carry a cord either, so I was excited when I found this little baby! It does exactly as described, pretty pink color, and I get one full charge of battery for my iPhone 11. Get it, you will not be disappointed!" —Meghan Doble

    Get it from Amazon for $29.75+ (clip the 15% off coupon on the product page for this price; available in six colors). 

    5. A rechargeable magnetic phone charger/hand warmer set — like, honestly I'm a little in love with how clever and CUTE this is? The two pieces magnetize together to warm your hands or separate to put one in each pocket, and you can *also* use those same two pieces to charge two phones at once. Basically a must-have for anyone going on couple adventures.

    It has four warmth settings, so you can pick one that's perfect for the conditions too! 

    Promising review: "I was skeptical, but this product amazed me. I plan to buy a bunch for Christmas presents. Quality materials and function beautifully. I purchased for a winter trip but started using immediately during a cold snap. I walked around a lake in freezing conditions. Turned these on in my pockets and couldn’t believe how well they work. Things I love: You can adjust the heat settings easily with a rubbery push button that isn’t easily triggered. You can see which setting it’s on with 1–4 red lights. I did not wear gloves and tried out each setting. They warm up quickly. Lowest setting was not lukewarm but warm enough for cold pockets. The highest setting gets really hot. Almost too hot to hold directly without a glove but not so hot you’ll get burned. I love that you can take your hands out of your pockets and hold them easily because they have a grippy side. I walked around for a bit with my hands out of pockets, and they didn’t get cold." —Angela Gil

    6. A "Winning Fingers" flashing cube game beloved by kids and adults alike — it lights up on all sides for four different types of quick-coordination games involving speed and memory that are super easy to learn, but will give you hours of game play trying to beat your top scores. Psst — parents highly recommend these for road trips, especially because it's not super loud!

    Promising review: "Great game. It takes the best of Simon, the Rubiks Cube, Bop It, and anything else and throws it into one beautiful little brick. My girls fight over it, and that's only after I'm done using it. Great great game, might as well get one for each kid. This is the kind of stuff that kids should be tinkering with over screen time. Nice job on this product." —CharlesF11

    7. A portable Chill-O-Matic Instant Beverage Cooler, aka every finicky cold bevvie drinker's DREAM. This gadget can take a 12-ounce can of seltzer, soda, or beer at room temperature and make it ice cold in just one minute. A lot of people who complain that their fridge doesn't make drinks "cold enough" also swear by this for an extra icy kick.

    Promising review: "I was so afraid of wasting money. But I didn’t. I love my sodas cold. But sometimes there’s not a cold one available, and waiting 30-40 min for one to get cold in the freezer is not always ideal. This will get your room temp can to fridge cold in 90 seconds. I let it run double that to get almost freezer cold. I wish it had a power cord. But I do appreciate the portability that the batteries provide. I can’t wait to try it out on vacationing, as access to cold sodas isn’t always available. All you need is a literally a little bit of ice." —G. Massey

    Get it from Amazon for $29.99

    8. A SwitchBot Smart Switch Button Pusher to turn virtually *any* device with a press-able "on/off" switch into smart tech in an instant. Once you adjust the device over the button — be it a light switch, a switch to turn on your kettle, or a switch to turn on a fan — you can ask Alexa or Google Home to turn it off or on, or control it via an app on your phone.

    Reviewers love this because it doesn't require you to "smart enable" other parts of your home. It's also a great way to turn on your kettle or coffee brewer from the other room so it's ready for you when you get out of bed! 

    Promising review: "This is exactly what I was looking for and had no idea it existed until I saw someone mention it on TikTok! Our front walkway gets pretty dark at night, and I was frustrated with trying to remember to turn on the light every evening and off every morning. I looked into those light sensors you can plug in, but our front porch light is under an awning with enough shade that it would have kept the light on 24/7. This little Switchbot solved the problem. I applied it to the indoor light switch and set the time on my phone. It has worked perfectly ever since." —Alecia McLochlin

    Get it from Amazon for $29 (available in white and black). 

    9. An undetectable mouse jiggler for folks working at home who need to stay "active" on Gchat, Teams, or Slack and sometimes want to dash out to use the bathroom or walk the dog without doing the whole "BRB, BACK IN A BIT!!" song and dance every time they dare to get up from their desk.

    Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in four styles). 

    10. A reviewer-beloved electric painless hair remover designed to quickly deal with small, fine hairs in sensitive areas like the upper lip, between your brows, or your hairline. It works in a snap and doesn't even require any shaving cream!

    Promising review: "I have actually had mine for years. My cousin asked me about my clean face the other day, giving me the opportunity to tell her about it. I bought this one for her. It is easy to use, can be used anywhere, fits easily in small purses, is quiet and the battery life is good, besides being easy to clean. A must have!" —Candy Osias

    Get it from Amazon for $13.98+ (available in six colors). 

    11. A pair of handy dandy flashlight gloves reviewers use for everything from at-home plumbing, working outside, camping, running, or any other activities you need visibility for when you're in dark or cramped spaces. Low key also a fun way to pretend you have super powers and can beam light out of your fingers, but you do you.

    Promising review: "My son often does things in the dark like change lures and ties on for fishing tournament, and this provides a creative option rather than awkwardly holding a flashlight to phone in his mouth!" —Jessica blanton

    Get it from Amazon for $17.99 (available in 10 styles). 

    12. A rose gold rechargeable electric lighter you can use to replace all your old gas ones. This one is not only chic as heck, but completely flameless, and made with a long stem so you can use it to light gas burners and larger candles without dealing with an open flame.

    This also comes in other pretty colors, but I am especially partial to this one because I bought it for my parents (their kitchen is entirely pink and one of my favorite places on Earth), and this was SO EASY to use — not to mention super safe! I'm a big weenie about fire (LOL, self-preservation) so I've always stuck to extended-arm gas lighters, but this is much better for the environment (plus cuter), so I feel a lot better about using it. You can read my full review of the Leejie electric lighter for more deets!

    Promising review: "Works like a charm. I saw this on a TikTok. Knew immediately that I needed it. I love candles and this is so much better than a match or lighter. It’s kept a charge for months. I use it several times a month." —dwhite3012

    Get it from Amazon for $11.99 (available in five colors).

    13. bagless, touchless stationary vacuum that'll suck the gunk on your floors right up instead of wrangling with a dustpan full of hair clumps that keep falling out or a heavy vacuum cleaner. Why lug a vacuum around when you can get the job done with a lightweight broom instead?

    GIF of reviewer sweeping dust into bagless vacuum

    Promising review: "Saw it on TikTok and knew I had to have one. I hate cleaning but get annoyed with the clumps of dog hair and bits of things on my kitchen floor. I usually just vacuum my tile with the vacuum which is a pain. This thing is so easy to just sweet things into and it sucks them right up. Sure, it's more expensive than my actual vacuum, but I've only had it three days and have used it two times." —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $128 (available in five colors).

    14. A heated eye massager with so many bells and whistles, it's worth the investment and *then* some — not only does it come with five different massage modes and a 15-minute timer, but it has Bluetooth music so you can vibe with your eyes *and* your ears. Reviewers swear by this to help combat eye strain, headaches, puffy under-eye circles, and dry eyes, and insomnia. 

    Promising review: "I saw this product on one of Amazon’s must-have TikTok videos and I knew I had to get it. It was so worth it — even though price may seem higher compared to other sellers, this is for sure a good investment piece. The quality is top notch, the strap that goes around your head is comfortable, and most importantly, the duration of each mode is long enough that it doesn’t interrupt your rest. I work a 12-hour night shift as a nurse and this technology has helped me get through the night easily.👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽" —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $59.49 (get this price by clipping the 10% off coupon on the product page; available in two colors). 

    15. A rechargeable mini USB fridge deodorizer perfect for banishing that ~off~ smell that lingers in your fridge even after you deep clean it. Reviewers also swear by it for deodorizing other small spots in their homes, like shoe closets, laundry rooms, and even their cars. 

    Check out a TikTok of the deodorizer in action. 

    Promising review: "I love how little space this deodorizer takes up. I’ve had a few different brands and types, but all were fairly bulky. This charged fast, and I love I only need to recharge monthly. My fridge hasn’t smelled once since I’ve started using." —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $22.99

    16. A heated jacket with a battery pack for anyone who loves the outdoors but is truly ready to sing, "Hit the road, Jack Frost." This rechargeable battery gives 10 hours of warmth on three heat settings to keep you cozy without all the bulk of layers. Bonus: It's machine washable and comes with a detachable hood.

    Promising review: "I was honestly kind of skeptical about this at first because it took a bit of time to heat up all the way, but once it did I was absolutely in love. It gets so warm and is absolutely perfect. It’s very very well made and luxurious feeling. 10/10." —Ezra Adair 

    Get it from Amazon in two styles: $156.99 (available in women's sizes S–XXL and four colors) and $149 (available in men's sizes S–3XL and three colors). 

    17. A Renpho percussion massager you don't even know how badly you need until you're using it — this gizmo is great for releasing knots, aches, and muscle tension, whether you got it from working at a desk too long or an intense workout.

    Check out a TikTok of the massager in action. 

    Promising review: "My husband bought me a massage gun for Christmas. I opened it, and it had been used (yuck) so I said, let's return it. My daughter in law got one for Christmas as well. We put an end on each one, and we compared them. Mine was from Sharper Image/Costco, hers was this model Renpho. Mine in comparison was not powerful, did not go as fast, and just didn't do much for me. They look similar but they were NOT. So I returned mine, and I ordered this Renpho. Due to the holidays, there were delays with the shipment. I was soooo disappointed because I was looking forward to trying it on my aching feet with plantar fasciitis. I have tried EVERYTHING for my feet, nothing works and I am always in pain. It came, and I opened the box to find an UNUSED, BRAND NEW massage gun with all the attachments. I tried it out and I thought wow, that feels AWESOME. But the true test is how do you feel the next day right? You cannot always walk around with a massage gun in your hand. The next day, I felt AMAZING. AMAZING. I used it on my hubby's back too, and he said he felt so much better today as well! In addition, this one is way QUIETER than my original massage gun. It's just really a quality piece. You won't be disappointed in this one. It really is what it says. I know it is hard to choose from all the models on the internet, but this one is the real deal. It's worth the money if you have pain." —L Johnson

    18. A discreet rechargeable neck warmer for when the infamous "Hot Girl Walks" become "Freezing Cold Winter Gremlin Walks" — this holds a charge for over three hours and helps regulate your body temperature with multiple heat settings.

    Promising review: "I am really happy with this portable neck warmer. I have other heated massage devices to help alleviate pain and other heated devices that work just for warming up the body. This device does both. It works like hand warmers, but it is designed to wear around your neck. Since I tend to carry tension in my neck, this provides relief. It is easy to charge and easy to use on the go. Good choice." —Jen C. 

    Get it from Amazon for $39.59 (available in three colors). 

    19. A retro-style pixel art game Bluetooth speaker so beloved by reviewers that a ton of them are gifting it to loved ones. It serves not just a speaker, but as a tiny canvas to make your own pixel art, a retro game console, an alarm clock, and even a white noise machine. Oh — and any designs you make on the pixel art screen can dance along to the music you play!

    Check out a TikTok of the retro Bluetooth speaker in action. 

    Promising review: "Sound quality and durability is very good! I like the ability to change the artwork on the cover, the ability to change the brightness of the image, the ability to change the volume of the startup/connect/disconnect, the auto-shutoff and auto-sleep mode toggles, and the ability to set multiple alarms (available on the app only, sadly, not out of the box). There's surprisingly a lot you can do with such a seemingly simple device, and it's made more than a great replacement alarm clock for me, which is initially what I bought it for. Highly recommend if you've got the extra coin to spend on something cute, fun, and practical!" —Soul Breaker

    Get it from Amazon for $84.99 (get this price by clipping the 15% off coupon on the product page; available in six colors). 

    20. A portable Bluetooth retro-style keyboard to instantly fashion your tablet into a chic mini laptop when you're on the move. You're about to make a *lot* of friends at Starbucks asking you where you got this little gem.

    Promising review: "I've been seeing retro-style typewriter keyboards on TikTok for a while now. I aways thought, 'That looks pretty cool!' Decided to look on here and found this one. I just got it today and so far has been working great! I had no problems connecting the keyboard via Bluetooth, and the clicking of the keys is really nice, one of the reasons why I wanted to get this." —dee

    Get it from Amazon for $35.99 (available in 11 colors). 

    21. A sleek Beast Blender + Hydration System that's truly out here doing the most — not only can it blend smoothies and shakes, but you can use it to infuse water and blend dips and soups. It's also designed with vibration reduction to keep the noise down, *plus* you can pop off the top as a to-go cup, making your morning smoothie experience seamless as heck.

    Here's what BuzzFeeder Brittany Ross has to say about this gizmo: "I got this blender over the summer, and wow, as someone who had firmly decided I was an "I don't need a blender" person, I quickly changed my mind after the first use. For starters, it's not as large as those super industrial-strength blenders, and it's so aesthetically pleasing that I have it out on my counter at all times. Plus, it couldn't be easier to use — just fill the bowl with your ingredients, pulse, and in a matter of ~moments~ you'll have a perfectly uniform blend of whatever you're trying to blitz. I first tried it out on a smoothie made with frozen bananas and peaches (see it in action on TikTok here!), and it pulverized the icy fruit like a champ. Best of all? It's a total breeze to clean, which, if I'm being honest, was probably the biggest factor in my having waited so long to add a blender to my kitchen arsenal. I can't recommend it enough, 15/10, no notes. 

    Get it from Amazon for $195+ (available in three colors).

    22. A sleek makeup brush UV sanitizer for anyone who's prone to breakouts — this gizmo has a UV-C light to kill 99.9% of all viruses and bacteria, preventing skin irritants and keeping your beloved brushes in tip-top shape.

    Brushean is a small business that specializes in UV-C light personal care technology. 

    Promising review: "This first caught my eyes when I saw how chic and cute it is. Then I found out it actually help sanitize makeup brushes! I wear makeup regularly, but to be honest, I don't clean my brushes frequently enough. I found it kind of frustrating to clean my brushes. Not sure why but it always takes a REALLY LONG TIME for my brushes to dry. This is such a lifesaver as I know I can sanitize my brushes every time I use them with just one click! I don't have to worry about skin issues caused by dirty brushes anymore! It also makes a really good/cute gift. Very happy with this purchase." —CMC

    Get it from Amazon for $89.

    23. A hybrid digital alarm clock and wireless charger so sleek your whole bedside table will gleam with the instant ~glow up~.

    Promising review: "I LOVE THIS! It exceeded all of my expectations. I’m recovering from major surgery so spending a lot of time in bed. I ordered this and use it as a reading light, night-light, and a light in the middle of the night for taking pain pills. It’s so nice to not have to fiddle with a light switch and just tap this quickly on and off. I love the wireless charger for my phone too. It’s so easy to set my phone there and grab it versus fumbling with a charging cord that I can’t easily pick up while recovering from surgery. This has truly exceeded all of my expectations and I’ve been raving to my friends and family about it. I love it! It’s perfect for my needs." —Tara

    Promising review: "This item is one of those things I didn't think I needed (but bought anyway) but now won't ever be without! The light just sits in my purse and turns on when it's bounced or bumped. The slight is soft but effective at the same time. It is really a lifesaver if you're always feeling like you need to dump out your purse to find what you are looking for! Great gift too." —D. Leander

    26. A USB-rechargeable, slim-profile rotating LED desk light you can easily attach to desks and other small spaces in need of more light. Not only does it rotate, but it comes with brightness and warmth settings to get the light *just* right, and also has a built-in magnet to attach itself to metal surfaces.

The compartments are great for tucking away piles of paperwork, the multiple charging outlets are convenient and the LED lights are helpful on Zoom calls when lighting in the room are not ideal. Everything in one place, simple and convenient. Just the way I like it." —Amy

    28. A 3-in-1 foldable magnetic wireless charger you'll honestly be mad you didn't know about before now??

Prior to this 3-in-1 compact purchase, I have purchased three different kinds of 3-in-1 chargers — I frequently travel between school and home with carry-on bags on airlines and all of the previous stand version chargers doesn't fit well in my bags or I am always worried I would break. This is compact and folds so well that I can fit in my carry-on or in any zipper pockets without having to worry about breaking anything. Charger works really well and it is the best compact one you can find in market. Love it and been using it for two months now and no issues!!" —SBREDDY

    29. A dual loud alarm clock and bed shaker for anyone whose alarm just isn't quite cutting it in the morning. This little gizmo will kick up a fight with adjustable volume, shaking, and brightness so you can get the precise level of "!!!!!!!!!" your brain needs to wake you up. 

    A lot of reviewers who don't rely on sound to wake them up also swear by the "shaking" alarm, which you can set on its own without volume! 

    Promising review: "This was bought for a young friend who had taken a new job with very early hours. She was getting in trouble at her new job because she had difficulty waking up to her alarm so very early in the morning. She has stated this alarm clock would 'wake the dead!' The clincher though is the earthquake that occurs under her pillow when the very loud alarm goes off! This alarm clock has fixed her problem and trained her to wake up very early each morning. She hasn't been late (from oversleeping anyway) since she received this clock. Another plus is the terrific retro look and turquoise color of the clock. I recommend this for anyone who has difficulty waking to a regular alarm clock. It is an outstanding product! Thank you!" —Lisa Engle

    Promising review: "I'm a huge fan of coffee and I need it in daily life. Absolutely loving this new cup! Easy and quick to mix your coffee and milk, pretty handy! Cleaning the cup couldn't be easier with the self stirring function, just put a little dab of soap, fill the mug half way with water, turn it on and let it do its own thing." —Lina

    31. A set of light-up magnetic charging cables compatible with Apple products, Samsung phones, Kindles, and more that let you install the magnetized bit into the charger, so then the magnetized cord will automatically start charging when it snaps into place. It's a perfect way to prevent cords from breaking or fraying and safely charge devices in the car, plus it's super user-friendly for people with limited hand mobility or vision impairment who might not be able to connect chargers as easily.

    Each pack comes with a 1-foot cord, a 3-foot cord, and two 6-foot cords. They even come with some magnetic tips designed to hit at a 90-degree angle, making it easier to charge phones being held horizontally and game controllers. 

    Promising review: "Where have these been all my tech life? My kids and husband break Lightning (iPhone) chargers constantly! Heard about these via a TikTok and had to buy. Great price for how many you get. We use them to charge iPhones, iPads, Kindles, and other Micro USB products. No more worrying about the cord breaking at the plug portion! The cord port glows a bright blue when it has power to it, so you might not want it in a bedroom at night." —Cindy H.

    32. A cleverly designed mug warmer to put competing mug warmers to shame — this one *only* warms up when you trigger the sensor by setting your mug down on it, so you don't have to worry about the heat of the pad if you forget to unplug it and leave it unattended. This is every office worker and slow coffee-guzzler's DREAM. 

    Promising reviews: "Saw it on TikTok: worth the hype. Bought this for my boyfriend. Plan to buy one for my coworker, and I need one too! Great gift for teachers on your nice list this Christmas." —Gabriela Eldredge

    "I drink coffee pretty much all day especially during the fall and winter. It was a hassle to go back and forth to the kitchen at work to warm my coffee. I saw this product and thought I’d try it and I absolutely LOVE it. It has a weight sensor so it turns on when you place your cup on the top plate and turns off when cup is lifted. I use it at work daily. I also think you could place a candle in a glass container on the warmer and it would work as well. My coffee is never too hot. It’s perfect. The only CON is that I wish it had a longer cord so I could move to a diff spot on my desk." —Kim bur lee

    33. A Barsys "smart coaster" designed to turn you into a pro bartender armed with nothing but your phone, some booze, and a dream. The app comes programmed with hundreds of cocktail recipes from bartenders, mixologists, and influencers, and the coaster's sensitive scale lights up to let you know when you've poured enough of each ingredient so you'll have *gin's kiss* perfect ratios in all your drinks without a bunch of measuring tools to clean later.

    Promising review: "I thought I was pretty good at making drinks but after receiving my coaster I got to experience so many other cocktails and the right way they should taste! It was so easy to follow the lights and add the perfect amount of each ingredient. Only negative is I want to go out and buy so many more ingredients to try them all out." —Heather

    34. A sleek as heck wireless handheld vacuum reviewers *love* using for computers and desks, their car interiors, and little messes in the home. It has adjustable nozzles depending on what kind of surface you're working with, and also has the added benefit of looking like a chic accessory that TikTok Barbie would own. (Does she exist yet??? Because it's only a matter of time.)

    35. The TikTok-famous, investmentworthy Balmuda toaster for anyone who doesn't just view toast as a meal but a lifestyle. This sleek gizmo uses steam technology to perfectly crisp the outside of the toast while keeping the inside moist and fluffy, creating a perfect canvas for butter undeserving of our mortal mouths.

    Promising review: "Holy moly! Best toast I have ever made. I did a comparison taste test with the Balmuda toaster versus my cheapie $60 toaster oven. You can really taste the difference in the toast with the texture and the moisture of the inside of the toast. Hands down, Balmuda blew my other toaster out the water. So happy with purchase." —JL
