I just came home from CES 2022 and I can certainly say that it was not like any previous CES events. Covid scares, companies pulling out, canceled last day…it was definitely a roller coaster for CTA who organizes CES. On the flip side, I was very grateful that the in-person event went on (because the virtual CES 2021 was terrible) and I was able to witness some of the coolest gadgets.
In this article, I am listing some of the coolest and most unique gadgets I’ve come across at CES, Pepcom and Showstoppers event at Last Vegas.
While I was at CES 2022, I saw a very cool utility flashlight. It was super bright, touch capacitive, magnetic and looked very futuristic. I tested the product and was impressed. It is called Jordilight and it is made for everyone, be it a bike rider, hiker, hunter, the list goes on.
As soon as I saw this gadget, my reaction was 'shut up and take my money'. How cool it would be to wear a wristband that shoots and sanitizes anything you want? Meet SprayCare, a cool gadget that will make you look like a superhuman. Just like spiderman, you can shoot a poisonous liquid that can eliminate viruses, bacteria, and all the bad guys around you.
I have seen a few digital music instruments/controllers such as Roli, Akai, etc but what sets Joue Play apart is its smartphone app and the interchangeable pads. I played around with this device for a while and was super impressed at how easy it was to create music without having any expertise in the field.
The product is expected to retail for about $299 in Q3 or Q4 of 2022 (more info here)
Smart weighing scales are on the market for a long time now but have you heard of a weighing scale that can do ECG (electro cardiogram)? Not just that, how about nerve activity assessment? Meet Body Scan by Withings which not only has the above features but also many more cool features. Withings is a reputable brand that has been producing some of the most useful health & fitness gadgets. I personally got a chance to see this scale at CES 2022 and test it for a bit.
Whether or not you are a space enthusiast, this gadget is going to make you one. Vespera, a futuristic smart telescope that can be controlled with your phone to take stunning images of stars and galaxies of millions of light-years away. Yes, you heard that right, you can take pictures of galaxies that are hundreds of millions of miles away.
There are numerous noise-canceling earbuds on the market but almost all of them are audio earbuds with noise cancellation as a secondary feature. Earbuds like Galaxy Buds, Bose, etc do a good job in minimizing the noise around you but they come not even close to the one we are about to see. Meet QuietOn, an active noise canceling earbuds mainly for sleeping. Also, these earbuds do only one job i.e noise cancellation, no audio output.
I just came across this cool wallet finder that makes use of Bluetooth as well as Apple Find My Network to spot your wallet/smartphone or anything else and it costs well under $50. Meet Chipolo Card Spot, a credit card-sized finding device.
These days, we have so many smart devices around us. Some of them collect our data with consent while some do without. Have you ever experienced an instance where you see an ad on social media related to something you talked about a few minutes ago? I have personally experienced this with Facebook and I have no idea how they got to know. Maybe by listening to my phone's microphone? Not sure. But either way, your privacy is at risk....

Mirrors are too common, how about a smart mirror that runs on Android, has a touch display and in-built speakers? Meet Thin Cast. Unlike many other smart mirrors on the market, this one uses Android OS which means you can install any android app on this mirror. It comes with a clean OS, no bloatware, no useless apps. But please note that some apps/games that make use of gyroscope and other sensors will not work on this mirror.
How cool would it be to have a dishwasher that can be moved around your house, can go with you on an RV and wash your dishes like a traditional one? That's not all, how about disinfect the utensils with UV light? Sounds interesting right? Meet, Bob, the dishwasher.
Zuvi Halo is a futuristic-looking hair dryer that uses light instead of a coil for heating. The product is aesthetically pleasing and has a minimal design. Let's now examine some of its cool features.
The market cap of cryptocurrencies has been unstoppable for the last few years. With so much money poured into this space, security has been a great concern. While some people hold their crypto themselves, in their own wallets, others prefer to keep it in exchanges like Binance. Although exchanges are great at keeping your assets safe, there are instances where the best of the best exchanges get hacked. With that being said, if you really want to control the cryptocurrencies and... [More info]
Skiing is fun but it could be even better if you are equipped with smart goggles that can auto-dim the lights and let you ski peacefully without having to worry about sharp lights, glares and fog. Meet Wicue smart ski goggles. [caption id="attachment_12755" align="alignnone" width="900"]
If you ever wanted to own a portable washing machine with a dryer, look no further. Meet Daily Neaty NIX, the smallest drum washing machine dryer for small clothes. As mentioned, this not only washes the clothes but also dries them fully so you can wear them right away. Let us see some of its cool features.
I knew about this lamp for a while now but I got a chance to try and test it myself at CES2022. Puripot lamp is a two-in-one device that can provide light as well as clean the air around you. From the outside, it looks just like an ordinary lamp.
Having a lawn around your house is fun and aesthetic but taking care of it takes a lot of time. All those who have a lawn and do the maintenance on their own know the pain. Here is a gadget that can be your assistant not only in the lawn section but also in gardening. Oto, a smart, cloud-connected sprinkler.
What if you can disinfect any object with your phone? Yes, you can literally do that now. Meet UVCeed, a smartphone-operated UV light sanitizer. Using this gadget is as simple as opening a camera app and focusing it on an object. Yes, all you need to do is attach the light device to the back of your phone (magnetic attachment), open UVCeed mobile app, pair the device over Bluetooth and start sterilizing!
I am a huge fan of Hydroponics, I myself have one at home and I love it. It is very cool to see plants growing in front of you, inch by inch. And I found the germination rate is higher compared to traditional soil-based. While I was at CES this year, I came across this beautiful indoor garden that is aquaponic based. Meet Nano Garden by Pret a Pousser.
If you are looking for a cool bike gadget that can do a lot of things, you are in the right place. While I was at CES this year, I came across this bike accessory called Seeker by Apeman. It is a front and rear action camera for your bike, a tail and headlight and a laser lane indicator. Let us know more about the product.
