AfterShokz Aeropex Mini Bone Conduction Headphones
Not a lot of bone conduction speakers are good, in fact, most of them are bad. Recently I reviewed a bone conduction audio glasses and it is one of the worst gadgets I came across in 2019. But hold on, we have a good product to showcase. When I was at CES2020, I happened to visit the AfterShokz booth to check out their newest product. When I was there, I came across their new headband (Aeropex Mini) that uses bone conduction technology to transfer sound directly to the inner ears. It was amazing. Even in such a noisy environment, I could hear the music very well. The audio quality was not bad at all.
The headband is very light. you won't even notice wearing it. It is super comfortable and the bone conduction earpieces don't cause discomfort at all. It comes in different colors and I really loved the red one.

Magnetic Levitating Lamp with Wireless Phone Charger
A couple of years ago when I was roaming around at Consumer Electronics Show, a ridiculously cool tech caught my eyes. That is when I first saw a magnetically floating light bulb. Magnetic levitation is not new but consumer products that use maglev technology is.
That's not it. The base has a wireless phone charger built-in so you can charge any smartphone supporting QI charging. A good bedside lamp, isn't it?
This levitating lamp has two key components. The lamp holder and the bulb. You power on the device and suspend the lamp near the holder. The bulb floats without any support or contact, uses the maglev technique to do so. The bulb is powered through the air via magnetic induction, and lights are controlled by the touch button: on/off on the base.
The lamp has a metal body making it look decent on any table. It has touch control and a fall-proof
mui – A wooden Plank with a Hidden Display
MUI is a cool wooden plank with a twist, it has a display embedded inside it. It is 100% made out of wood and the best thing is it has a touch display that can show notifications, set timer and play music.
One thing I forgot to mention is that it has an inbuilt speaker too, how cool is that? It has a built-in google assistant that is voice search enabled. MUI also integrates with several smart bulbs such as Hue and lets you control the brightness by sliding across the horizontal axis. It can show weather, your schedule and more.
The panel is not thick at all, it is just as the size of a typical wooden plank (you can see it from the image above). It can be fitted on any wall or hard surface. Costing around $600, this gadget is definitely not cheap but is a good fit if
PowerEgg X Waterproof Drone + Handheld Camera
Powervision, one of the popular drone manufacturers showcased their newly released multipurpose gadget/drone/camera (whatever it is) called PowerEgg X during the CES 2020 event. It was love at first sight, look how cool and compact it looks. PowerEgg X is not only a drone but also a handheld camera. So when you are in a drone restricted area, just take off the wings and put on the strap, as easy as it sounds. Another go-to feature is that the drone is waterproof.
Don't forget to checkout PowerRay, a cool underwater 4k drone
You might be knowing, there are not a lot of drones that are waterproof, not even water-resistant. I personally have a Mavic Pro and every time I fly it during monsoon, my nerves will be shaking.
Power egg X has a maximum range of 3.5 miles which is around 5.6 kilometers. It has a 30 minutes battery backup which is phenomenal
Mutrics GB-30 is a Smart Audio Glass For Gamers
First things first, this is not a bone conduction glasses or smart glasses, this is an audio glasses which shoots unidirectional audio directly to your ears. This allows you to listen to music with your ears open and the best thing, it is in a form of spectacles that are not bulky or ugly, you can wear them every day to any place.
Mutrics GB 30 audio glasses is specifically made for gamers but I don't think it is restricted just for that purpose. While I was at CES 2020, I personally tested these audio glasses and they are amazing. Even in that noisy environment, I was able to hear the music clearly.
These glasses are definitely comparable with Bose Audio Frames but I can't conclude which is better because I haven't tested them side by side. Mutrics GB 30 glasses has a battery backup of up to 4 hours which is

Smacircle eBike Fits in Your Luggage
Smarcircle is a compact, fully foldable electric bike that can fit in your suitcase, luggage or even a 17-inch laptop backpack. I had a hands-on experience when I was at CES2020. The bike has a range of anywhere between 10 to 15 miles per charge which is not a great feature. The maximum speed of the bike is around 12mph.
Smarcircle is made of carbon fiber and the design so cool. It looks like a futuristic bicycle without pedals. Talking about pedals, Smarcircle has no pedals for manual operation. So if you are stuck somewhere at 0 battery, you are literally doomed. The electric bike can handle a weight of 250 pounds and weighs 25 lbs. Smarcircle eBike takes around 3 hours to get fully charged.
The battery of the bike is the seat itself. Whenever you are folding the bike, you will have to take out the battery first and then
