Pozio Cradle – Privacy Control Device For Smartphones
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. To combat this, you can either put your phone away or use a gadget like Pozio Cradle that uses technology to block your microphone.
Cradle is a cool accessory for your phone that prevents eavesdropping. It does so by producing audio that blocks your microphone from listening to anything else. So, even if you try to trigger your phone by saying 'hey siri' or 'ok google', your phone cannot hear them.

Zuvi Halo – Light Based Hair Dryer
Zuvi Halo is a futuristic-looking hair dryer that uses light instead of a coil for heating. Traditional hair dryers rely on intense heat to dry hair, which can essentially "bake" and overdry both the hair and scalp. This often results in dryness and potential damage.

The product is aesthetically pleasing and has a minimal design. Let's now examine some of its cool features.

Arculus Hardware Wallet for Cryptocurrency
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 tokens that you own, you should probably get a hardware wallet, Arculus is one such wallet.
Let us see some of its cool features. You can see more features on their product page.

Deeper Connect Pico Review – Decentralized VPN & Gateway
Update: As of July 2022
It has been several months since I received this product (I had backed their Kickstarter project). I have been using it ever since. So far, no issues with it. The ad blocking feature is my favorite. It blocks almost all web ads. But the Youtube ad blocking feature sucks. You need a separate youtube mobile app for this to work and the app is horrible.
Some sites do not work, one example is semrush.com. It did work after I routed semrush site through Asia. Sometimes, google services lag. For example, google analytics throws 'please try again' message but works properly when refreshed a couple of times. I have also noticed that youtube videos sometimes buffer which is annoying. For this reason, I am downgrading my ratings to 3.9/5.
If you are planning to get it, please have a backup modem router functioning alongside. I have two Wifi connections.

Nimble Robotic Nail Painter
OMG. Say “Nimble.” Memorize It. Think: “I will do myself a favor. I will treat myself to the Nimble robotic nail salon.” I am a convert after one use. Its compact, industrial, white shell design matches any decor aesthetic, so I plan to leave it on my desktop near my computer. It will take a direct inquiry (or being caught doing my nails “at work”) for people to know.
I spent only twenty minutes and gazed at a completely dry, smear- and smudge-proof nail polish. It looked as if I had stepped out of a very high end salon. The curve, length and width of my nails were each perfectly painted. Impossible? No, not with the Smart AI technology that operates this compact wizard of nail science.
