2. Amazon Kindle Paperwhite (8 GB)

Amazon Kindle Paperwhite needs no introduction as it’s the best digital reader. Its 11^th generation update includes the adjustable warm light for reading in the dark mode. It has up to 10 weeks of battery life, and 20% faster page turns. It is an ideal replacement for physical books.

Tile Mate is a good option but offers a small distance to find the lost item. Although you can track the latest location with the app, the range should have been increased. The good thing is that it’s water resistant, but it’s compatible only with Alexa, not with other voice assistants.

6. Anker Bold LC40 Flashlight

Anker Bold LC40 Flashlight is small but durable, with USB charging that produces excellent light. Its 3350 mAh battery can last for up to 8 hours. Now, if there is no light, you are stuck in a dark place, or you travel at night, it’s a must-have product for you.

The Nintendo Switch is still quite popular, but not in the way you may expect. The sole difference is a larger seven-inch OLED screen for a better experience.

19. OCULUS Quest 2

The first generation of Quest provided the best standalone VR experience available, and the second Quest is a contender for the best VR headset overall.
