New Year, New Gadgets

With 2019 officially in full swing, it's the perfect time to 'treat yourself' and indulge in some of the year's newest and hottest tech. Here are some items to help you keep those New Year's resolutions.

Apple Airpods
Vow to stay on trend this year.

Apple Airpods are not only at the center of the newest meme of 2019, but a solution to tangled headphone wires. Features include automatic audio and pause when buds are put in and out of ears, five hours of continuous listening on one charge and easy double-tap Siri activation. Not an Apple user? No problem! The buds can be paired with any Bluetooth capable device.

VR Goggles
See what you've been missing.

One of the hottest gadgets in 2018, Virtual Reality (VR) Goggles continue to gain traction into the new year. With more VR-based games being released and quality equipment becoming cheaper, why wouldn't you want to fully immerse yourself into another world? There are some great options for goggles that don't break the bank and the Pansonite 3D VR Headset is just one of them. It features a cloth design, similar to Google's Daydream headsets, an adjustable plastic headband, built-in headphones with an aux input and a dial on top for adjusting focus.

Amazon Smart Plug
A smart house on a budget!

Controlling lights, fans and appliances just got easier. With the Amazon Smart Plug, you can add voice control to any outlet! Schedule that morning cup of coffee to begin brewing before you wake up, fans to start blowing before you arrive home and even lights to shut off just by the sound of your voice. Even better, you can control all of the same actions when you're away from the house with your phone! All you need is an Alexa-enabled device such as an Echo Dot or Fire TV. 

Universal Cable Organizer
Gone are the days of tangled wires and chargers.

Although it's not a piece of tech itself, a cable organizer can help you keep that resolution to be more organized. With some savvy packing and organization skills, you can fit an amazing number of cables and small gadgets in a compact carrier.
