Anker PowerCore Charger

If you’re looking for pretty much anything for charging or audio purposes, Anker tends to be at the top or near it in every category. When it comes to chargers, they make them for numerous needs. They tend to call most of their portable chargers “PowerCores.” As a result, you’ll see several of the same names with different prices and power abilities. The difference comes in when you look at the Essential, Slim, and levels of PowerCore.

Perhaps the best deal you can get from Anker and its chargers would be their great bundle deal involving the PowerCore III Elite and PowerCore Pod. The Elite comes with a power level of 25,600 mAh or 60W. Meanwhile, the Pod comes with an extra 65W of power. You can charge up to three devices at a time AND it comes with fast charging capabilities for the Apple iPhone as well as Samsung Galaxy. It can even offer a full charge for any laptop and only needs 3 hours of charging itself to be fully powered.

Poly Studio P15 Personal Video Bar

We really love this device from the good developers at Poly Studio. They have made what they call the P15 Personal Video Bar, which would be used for things like conference calls or Zoom meetings. With most of the world still working at home as well as those on the road needing to report things, something like this was heavily needed. What separates Poly Studio’s device from other video/microphones on the market? It has the ability to mute out sound beyond a specific distance.

While it does offer clear, superb video quality, the real magic is in the sound. You set the distance for which you believe sound will need to be involved in the video. Anything beyond that distance is blocked with Poly’s NoiseBlockAI. They use Poly’s Acoustic Fence to keep out sound, effectively canceling it completely. Therefore, your kids could be just in the next room playing and making noise and no one on the Zoom call would even know. How cool is that?!?

Philips Hue White and Color Lighting

When people think about the Philips brand, they often think about other equipment such as televisions and even audio equipment. Yet as of a few years ago, they went through a rebrand to focus completely on medical equipment and lighting. Of course, if you know this brand you know they come with quality. Their Hue Light Bulbs are absolutely tremendous. Of course, they come in different colors from white to random colors like pink.

They are part of the “smart bulb” territory, allowing you to completely control them via Bluetooth or through their mobile application. To be fair, there are numerous lights you can choose from but the best might be the E26 bulb model. It comes with literally millions of white and color light shades. The cost is around $45 for one bulb, but the fact that you can set them to pretty much anything you need makes them one of the best home office gadgets you could own.

COLOP E-Mark Mobile Printer

We won’t lie, when we first saw this, we were not sure about it. But the more we looked into it, the more we wanted it. This is a mobile printer, which for those of you that need to always print something, can be a lifesaver. The product has won numerous awards for how easy and useful it is. While the world has gone mostly digital, there is still a need to print things. Even if it is not convenient for most of us. That is why the COLOP E-Mark Mobile Printer is so great. It makes printing things off easy.

It can print pretty much anything you set it to print out on just about any surface you might need. Perhaps you’re trying to make business cards, birthday cards, even wedding invitations. The E-Mark Printer can do that. Maybe you’re creating a banner or flyer and need larger wording on it, this printer has your back there too! There’s a reason this device has won so many awards, and we feel it is perfect for any home office.

Vitamix Foodcycler FC-50

This might not seem like one of the big home office gadgets everyone wants, but it’s perfect for the world. Vitamix wanted to create something that would make use of our excess food and the animals/plants they came from. That led them to the Foodcycler FC-50! We often recycle many materials these days, but no one thought to recycle food itself. This is a trash can compactor, but it is not for all trash. Just food products only, which is important to remember.

Once you throw things like fruit cores, vegetable peels, dairy products, even chicken bones in there, the Foodcycler transforms it all. The result will be nutrient-rich soil that can be used in your family garden. It not only reduces food waste, but it continues to help supply more food in a literal circle of life concept. Having this in your home office would be perfect as you finish up lunch. The odor-free can and carbon filtration make it perfect for indoor usage.

Apple AirTag Tracker

Similar to the Tile Tracker, the Apple AirTag Tracker is made specifically for Apple users. Well, at least those with an iPhone that are wanting to use the Apple version of things. Just like with the Tile model, you’re going to need a tracker to put on your stuff. Therefore, you’ll have to buy multiple if you’re wanting to keep track of things. Although, the price is slightly different for the Apple version.

One tracker is about $30. While Tile’s version was durable, the Apple AirTag is stainless steel, IP67 water and dust resistant. Plus, they have a built-in speaker that plays sound to help you locate it. Best of all, you can remove and add new batteries when the originals die. On top of this, the Apple AirTag app will let you label things to keep track of which tracker is being used for a specific device. However, the average distance it works is within 15 to 30 feet.

Google Titan Security Key

Security is important, and Google knows a lot about that. They wanted to make a product that could offer users maximum protection against hacks, especially if they are surfing the web on a local WiFi that isn’t private. Each Titan Security Key is built using a hardware chip that includes firmware engineered by the geniuses at Google. This was done to put integrity within the key to enhance its secure nature. This also ensures nothing has been tampered with from the moment you open the box.

The Titan Security Key uses a two-factor authorization device that is useful and phishing-resistant for users. This can be perfect for those that might be carrying sensitive information. It’ll work on most devices, and even can easily fit into any USB port on a computer or laptop. All of this supports FIDO standards, ensuring protection for the user. Best of all, these keys start at just $30. What’s not to like?

Royole RoWrite 2 Smart Writing Notebook

This has to be one of the coolest things we’ve seen. For the longest time, artists used a version of this to draw like normal then still digitally encode it into the computer. But we never thought of it as something to use for writing, but Royole did. Yet they knew that they also needed something artists could have fun with too. A lot of the drawing devices forced you to plug things into another computer and try to do everything there.

But the RoWrite 2 gives a person the chance to draw anything spontaneously anywhere they want. All of it is then saved and can be shared using the RoWrite App. They use a real, specially-made ballpoint pen that simply has a built-in pressure sensor to capture 2048 pressure points. This pinpoint accuracy gives the user the feeling they are using a real notebook. Drawing or writing something out, the RoWrite 2 gives you the freedom to do whatever you’d like when the moment strikes.

Netgear Nighthawk WiFi 6E System

Netgear is known to be the leader in the world of WiFi routers. It is rare they make a bad one, making them the most trusted name in the field. Therefore, when they introduced the Nighthawk WiFi System, we were instantly interested. There are now a few versions of the Nighthawk. However, the Tri-Band version is likely the best of them all and it comes in different formats depending on your needs.

Using the new WiFi 6E technology, users can take advantage of the incredible speed it provides. This allows for smoother streams, removing any loading issues or drop-offs when you’re on Netflix. Yet it also offers a lower latency on 4K and even 8K streaming, AR/VR Gaming, and obviously video conferencing. This is what makes it one of the best home office gadgets in our book. There’s so much you can get out of it and its powerful 1.8HHz quad-core processor and speeds of up to 10.8Gbps.

TCL NXTWEAR G

TCL is one of the newer brands Americans are seeing these days. You might have seen their televisions at very competitive prices at your local Wal-Mart, for instance. Yet TCL has been around for 40 years now, mostly operating in home appliances for the longest time. Yet by 2015, they were the third-largest television manufacturer by market size. Clearly, they know they have a future in the world of screens. That brings us to the cool TCL NXTWEAR G!

They just began going on sale as of this July overseas. Like Lenovo, they wanted to create smart glasses that could hold up well in a world that wanted to see more, but screens could never seem to live up to the need. TCL gives users what amounts to a 140-inch screen in these glasses! They work either through your phone or computer, and essentially give users an augmented reality experience. Where the glasses do not cover up what is around you but still give you the full display.

Trio Portable Dual and Triple Screen Laptop Monitor

There are a few companies that make dual or triple-screen monitors for laptops. However, the one that seems to get the most praise currently is the version by Mobile Pixels. Their version works by merely attaching the extra screen(s) to the laptop, then have them connect with the laptop display via a USB port. These are high-quality screens too, with a 1920x1080p screen resolution. Best of all, they include Anti-Glare Eye Care Brightness, which removes any issues with the sun or lights above you.

As mentioned, they fit USB ports and will work with both USB-A and USB-C connections. No driver will be needed. The screens are also completely adjustable to your specific needs. In fact, they are formed to complete a full 270-degree rotation and offer a 180-degree presentation mode. The screens will go right back in their case without a fight, as they are literally plug-and-play for you. They are easily removed, basically. This makes Mobile Pixel screens one of the best home office gadgets you can have right now. With a one-year warranty and under $300 asking price, it is well worth trying out.

LG Transparent OLED TV

While normally, one could say a TV does not seem like one of the home office gadgets worthy of your time, they have not seen this model from LG. Those crazy geniuses at LG have transported us into the future by coming up with an OLED TV that is essentially transparent. Sort of like screens we’ve seen in multiple science fiction movies and television shows. This is certainly a television, but LG is marketing them as “signage” with the hope that stores or cities might use the tech for ads. This could be useful in those types of places as the transparent nature allows people to see an advertisement.

Yet people would also be able to see what is in front of them too. LG is also marketing them for hotels and other places similar, with one designed to literally come from under the bed right at the foot of it. Of course, it is still not fully transparent at only 40% transparency truthfully. Yet the fact that they can thin things out to even get here is amazing. Imagine your home office with one of these or seeing one with your business name on it inside a shopping center. Still, though, it comes with a HEFTY price tag. Right now, they are only taking buyer inquiries. But they’ll be seen a lot one day, well, sorta.
