1) Solar beach umbrella

Anker’s solar beach umbrella is way more than just shade. This umbrella is part of Anker’s SOLIX lineup and does something pretty unique. It charges your devices while you’re chilling outdoors. What makes it special? Perovskite solar cells that are seriously impressive. These cells are about 30% more powerful than traditional solar cells in bright sunlight and perform twice as well in low light. The umbrella can pump out 80 watts of power through USB-C and even has an XT-60 connection to power things like Anker’s new EverFrost electric cooler. So you could literally keep your drinks cold and your phone charged at the same time. While they haven’t announced the price yet, you can expect to see this tech to hit stores sometime in spring or summer.

2) Wireless earbuds with a case that sticks to the back of your phone

Artronic just unveiled Komutr, a super-slim set of wireless earbuds with a genius magnetic charging case that attaches right to compatible phones, chargers and accessories. The charging case is just 0.47 inches thick and is designed to stick to the back of your MagSafe-compatible phone. No more digging through bags or forgetting your earbuds at home. The case even has a clever flip-up lid that works as a kickstand for watching videos. These earbuds pack some serious battery power, up to 10 hours of listening time per charge and a total of 30 hours when you include the charging case. For those without MagSafe phones, Artronic promises “adjustable options,” but let’s be real: The magnetic attachment is where the magic happens. Want to get your hands on these? Mark your calendar for January 15th when preorders open. The Komutr will start shipping in May and will set you back $129. It’s not bad for a pair of earbuds that basically become one with your phone.

3) Samsung’s new TV uses AI to serve up recipes

Have you ever binge-watched a cooking show and suddenly craved that exact dish? Well, Samsung’s got your back with Samsung Food, a mind-blowing TV feature that uses AI to recognize dishes on screen and instantly serve up their recipes faster than you can say “bon appétit.” The tech isn’t just about recipes. Samsung Food can track your grocery deliveries, build shopping lists from your fridge contents and even suggest meal plans. Samsung’s calling it the “ultimate AI sous chef,” and honestly, they might be onto something. Sure, the AI won’t actually cook for you (bummer, right?). But for wannabe home chefs who get inspired by every cooking show and movie, this could be a total game-changer. Just don’t blame Samsung if you end up spending more time watching cooking shows than actually cooking. Of course, you’ll need a 2025 Samsung TV to access this culinary magic. Samsung Food will be available on the QN90F, QN80F and QN70F model TVs.

4) Robot vacuum tidies more than just floors

The Roborock Saros Z70 is changing the game by doing what most robot vacuums can’t: intelligently handling stray items. When a sock or pair of underwear drops on the floor, this smart device doesn’t just push them around or get stuck. Instead, it extends a hidden mechanical arm, carefully moving the items to a designated area, keeping your space neat and preventing cleaning interruptions. Robot vacuums have evolved from simple floor cleaners to intelligent assistants that can navigate around obstacles, handle pet hair and now even manage misplaced clothing.

LeafyPod uses its AI smarts to figure out exactly how much water your plant needs and doles it out accordingly. No more drowning your poor succulents. LeafyPod’s water reservoir can keep your green buddies hydrated for up to four weeks. That’s right. You can finally take that monthlong vacation without coming home to a jungle of crispy leaves. It’s like having a tiny plant whisperer right in your living room.

6) The lawnmower that tackles any terrain

The Lymow One is a beast. With its “Savage Traverse System” of tank-like tracks, this robot mower isn’t playing around. It chews through leaves, pine cones and small branches like they’re nothing, using powerful mulching blades and a centrifugal fan to keep things tidy. Pet owners, relax. Its advanced obstacle recognition means Fluffy and Fido stay safe while this lawn-taming machine does its work. It’s basically a robotic landscaper that turns your yard into a perfectly manicured paradise. However, it doesn’t come cheap. It will set you back $3,000.
