Our top 10 tech gadgets for 2022
1. Amazon Astro Household Robot
We learned in the Spy article: 35 of the coolest gadgets that Amazon announces a trio of new household robots. And although they are not easy to get your hands on, we had to share this one with you.
This robot is an anthropomorphized (no idea what that means?) household assistant that can move freely around your home to keep an eye on things. You can use it for security or as a pet … your choice!
2. Beats Fit Pro
If you take one of Apples Beats studio buds and affix wingtips and many of the AirPod’s special features, you end up with one of Apple’s best workout headphones.
They offer flexible, secure-fit wingtips, spatial audio with head tracking, two listening modes, and up to 6 hours of listening time.
3. HidrateSpark Tap Smart Water Bottle
This cool water bottle glows to remind you to drink 12 times throughout the day and comes in multip colors. It also syncs so you can record your hydration. And help you create a personalized hydration goal. Drinking water has never been so cool!
4. The Ridge RFID Wallet (Carbon Fiber 3K)
The Ridge is well known for minimalistic wallets, but this one is so cool because it blocks radio frequency identification signals (RFID), making it hard for hackers to get to your credit cards. Unfortunately, hackers have created devices that can swipe the data from your cards when it’s sitting in your back pocket.
5. Alexa Smart Plug
This may seem simple compared to the other gadgets, but don’t miss this one. This little smart wall plug is a heck of a buy for $24. If you are traveling and can’t remember if you left something running. If it’s plugged into this, you can simply open your Alexa app and cut the power. Pretty cool!
6. 12″ Phone Screen Magnifier

Just a mere $39,900, The Tesla Cybertruck is an all elective, power-duty truck announced by Tesla Inc. Three models have been announced, with EPA range estimates of 400–800 kilometers (250–500 mi) and an estimated 0–100 km/h (0–62 mph) time of 2.9–6.5 seconds, depending on the model.
