Enough of watching YouTube videos about the top 10 gadgets people are buying on Amazon, because #1, it is extremely difficult to get these gadgets and #2, some of these gadgets aren’t actually that cool. So, we’ve done the tedious work for you and have filtered through these tech reviews.

Here are 15 insanely cool gadgets that are literally just at your fingertips (i.e. they’re on Shopee so click on the links to check them out) 😉

“ Got mine and…holy. Crap. TOTALLY in love with it. I honestly wasn’t expecting much, but this is one of those times where I was absolutely and pleasantly surprised to discover works like they said it would. ���” – Celina Knippling

“This product amazed me and exceeded my expectations. It works exceptionally and as described. The Rocketbook app is so simple and easy to use. The scanning is perfect, it captures the colors, exposes the page with the right lighting, and crops and adjusts the page properly. Each scan takes less than a second, and you can combine multiple pages into one scan and upload them as one document.” – Anonymous

Awesome little device….. Will definitely have a perm place in my work bag.” – bc20nn

This product was wonderful for providing multiple outlets for use from a single wall outlet. This enabled conversion from a non-US power source to charge multiple battery chargers as well as additional USB ports concurrently. It’s small size and weight were also a big bonus for travelers. This is an excellent product to provide photographers multiple outlets for battery charging while minimizing space and weight.” – Kevin P. Roe

4) Sleep Headsets

Ever wanted to listen to music through the night using a headset but was unable to do so because you woke up in middle of the night with your earpiece buried somewhere underneath your sheets? This will never be a problem again with these Sleep Headsets ($10.29). Tug them snugly around your head for a good night’s rest! Psstt, these headsets can double up as your workout earphones!

“Wife got this so she could sleep while listening to her meditations. Since she is a side sleeper, she can’t use the “bud” types. She likes this since it has thin speakers and they are free to move around where she can place them as she needs to. She has not complained about any ear pain, and she sleeps with this every night. Some people have said it hurts their ears, others say it doesn’t. In her case, they don’t. Everyone is different, but she is glad she has this.” – Greg

“Love these! I like to listen to music or podcasts when I go to sleeP. These headphones are incredibly comfortable… way better than ting to use in ear buds. I also use them when I want to listen to somessages, watch youtube, etc but want to stay in same room as family doing other things. Can listen to my stuff well without totally blocking out family” – Jane U

 

5) JBL Clip 3

Always wanted to sing in the showers or anywhere but your iPhone or Samsung isn’t doing justice to Cats track you’re belting out? Well, the JBL Clip 3 ($65) might just be the thing you need. It is not only ultra-light, making it super portable, but it is also waterproof. It also boasts up to 10 hour of battery life, not too bad at all for a mini device like this. Hang it in your shower and you’re all set for your bathroom-karaoke!

“I love everything about this speaker especially the waterproof feature I put this in my pool to test it and I had to put a rock over it because it floats in the water I left it there for 2 freakin days then I decided to pull it out then I pressed the power button and it still is functional best speaker ever” – Anonymous

 

6) Automatic Bottle Opener

Bid goodbye to over-straining your muscles and failed attempts at opening a simple can of campbell soup with this Automatic Bottle Opener ($7.84). Simply place the device on the can, press the button and it will automatically lift up the lid for you!

“I freakin’ love this thing! Now I know what Captain Kirk must have felt like in his captain’s chair asking the computer questions and to do things for him. Highly, highly recommend anyone to get one of these!” – Rick Roberts

 

8) Fabric Shaver

You have heard of a lint brush, but have you ever heard of fabric shaver? The fabric shaver works in a similar way as the lint brush, in that it helps to remove excess fuzz that makes your garments look dull and frayed. The difference? It is battery operated, and saves all the busy working people like us a lot of time doing the manual work.  Functioning like a mini vacuum cleaner, the fabric shaver sucks up and removes all the fabric pills from all types of garment with the click of a button, making it look brand new in no time at all. Life-saver really!

It is really so good. I recommended it to my friends and family” – helloicemilo


I’ve been using this for at least 6 months and am impressed how effective it is. It’s impressive how much lint it actually removed – visible in the collection container. I’ve own cheaper versions that were much less effective and broke.” – Zebra

 

9) Electric Arc Lighter

Tired of your gas lighters running out of fuel, and not a match stick in sight? You have got to try the electric arc lighter, which does not require fuel or an open flame, and is also environmentally friendly! With built-in powerful USB Rechargeable Li-ion battery, the lighter works by creating a small electrical arc between two electrodes that is much hotter than a flame and is windproof.  It also has a 360 degree rotation neck, which helps prevent your hands from being burned. No more nasty gas and burning smells~

“Worth it for the environment! Charges up fast and is able to light candles fast as well. Incense might take awhile. Note to remove lighter when it’s fully charged.” – projecktoverhaul

Item lights up with a flip of the bonnet and then just holding the button down. Very easy to use, and completely resistant to wind. We are already using this a lot in our family, and I’m very excited to get even more use out of it.” – Smylie

“Fast delivery.  Good product quality. FYI – bought it to light up Lego modular buildings. Not bad.” – resu321

“We used one under our 6yo son’s bed. He was having trouble sleeping at night in the dark, and the overhead light means he stays up late playing with his toys and reading. So we needed light that filled the room but also didn’t light up his bed or provide bright light that would keep him up.” – Jon

 

11 ) Aukey Mobile Phone Holder

Secure your phone to your car’s AC vent with the Aukey Mobile Phone Holder ($7). Its ultra-strong magnets will make sure you’ll never have to fumble for your phone (when it is on Google Maps) as it drops for the nth time after going over a hump.

“This is so simple and slick. The tapered teeth are rubbery, maybe silicone. Not sure. I was unsure how this would fit my car’s air vents because there are the horizontal fins on the outside and vertical fins behind. Turns out these tapered, flexible teeth just “figure it out.”” – David K.

“This mount is so much better than those big bulky suction cup mounts that stick to the windshield. This one is small and compact, and STRONG! I have a pretty slim phone case on my Samsung Galaxy S5, but the thin piece of metal that allows the magnet to stick to the phone is unnoticeable behind the case. Even with a heavier phone, it did not fall off at every bump in the road. This is a must have for anyone who uses their phone for music or gps. I drive a 2013 Hyundai Elantra and it sits right at the perfect height in my air vent to glance over without being too distracted.” – Rentotheny

 

12) Mug Warmer

Ever had the problem where you forgot about the warm cup of coffee you bought in the morning, and by the time you had the time to enjoy it, it’s all cold and simply unsatisfactory? Well, you will never have to throw away stale cold coffee with this Mug Warmer ($5.60). Simply plug it into your computer’s USB and you’re good to go!

I used this product to keep my coffee warm in the morning because I work at home so I can just put my coffee down and it would just keep it warm. It is very easy to clean up if you spill your drink on it. This is also easy to use, just have to click the button, it turns on, and it starts warming up. You can also gift this to other people if you would like because it is absolutely giftable. I give this a overall of 5 stars for it’s incredible help!” – Mykhailo

Simply place an Alexa beside the camera and give the command to toss treats whenever you think your little one has been a good boy. Say bye bye to separation anxiety~

I bought this item for my girlfriend who is deployed overseas in Bahrain. She loves her dog more than anything so I knew this would be a perfect gift for her. The first night I had the Furbo I was awaken several times in the middle of the night by high pitched squealing and giggling of glee from my gf not being able to contain herself. She was so excited to see him, talk to him and give him treats and OH BOY does she like giving him treats! By the time she gets back from her deployment I am sure he will be overweight and wont be able to run to her when she gets home. Thanks Furbo, your product is awesome and we all love it!” – Maria
