It’s time to fire up the grill and settle in for a classic movie under the stars. The outdoor summer movie season is here, and spending time in your backyard cinema can be made even better with a great portable projector. Break out the hamburgers, hot dogs, popcorn, ice cream, beer, and whatever else you need to spend hours on end with family and friends watching movies and listening to music. The latest portable projectors are packed with tech, convenience, and great design. They can also throw out big screen sizes, blare sonorous audio, and even project from the smartphone…
Cleaning dirty bathrooms, oily kitchen counters, and all sorts of burnt-up gunk in the countertop oven is no walk in the park, requiring seemingly endless scrubbing that can leave you utterly exhausted. Not to mention, you probably spend a good portion of that time getting down on your hands and knees, while trying to reach inside tight nooks and crannies. The worst part? It doesn’t take that long before everything gets dirty again, making the whole thing feel like a never-ending chore. Fortunately, there are electric spin scrubbers that can make those cleaning tasks a whole lot easier. The best electric spin scrubbers…
We all know what a frying pan looks like. It has a flat base, a shallow bowl, and a handle for easily grabbing it while making your meals. The iLean Pan takes the traditional pan and changes things up. How so? Well, it’s a frying pan that doesn’t have a flat base. Instead, they call it a “sloped frying pan,” sporting a bowl that’s intentionally tilted, with a higher height out front. Why would you do that? According to the outfit, this means temperature is different across the different parts of the pan, allowing you to cook multiple items at different temperatures…
Front row access to the Miami Beach Antique Show, no flight required. There’s a certain mythology around watch shows. Fluorescent-lit convention halls. Glass cases. Dealers who’ve seen it all. Collectors who definitely don’t want you touching anything. An unspoken understanding that if you have to ask the price, you’ll be laughed out of the room. “That’s part of the charm,” some watch enthusiasts might argue. But we’d say it’s part of the problem. You shouldn’t have to be “on the list” to get a front row seat to interesting watch sellers. It’s why we’re excited by what’s happening at the Miami Beach Antique Show this year with eBay Live. Three different watch sellers will be going live right from the show floor. Yes. In real time. Watches will be displayed.…
Even to this day, plenty of people wear Casio’s classic F-91W, which continues to be one of the most sold watches in the world. It’s no surprise, considering its utilitarian design, classic looks, and incredibly affordable price. If you ever wished your F-91W came with a few other bells and whistles, though, you might be interested in the Olle Watch One DIY Kit. A replacement mainboard for the classic timepiece, it instantly gives your old-school Casio watch a bunch of modern niceties. We’re talking Bluetooth for syncing time with your phone, customizable RGB lighting, and basic fitness tracking, among other…
Packing can be fun. I said it. Rule #1 for packing for a Gentlemen’s Trip: Get a woman involved. I had my wife help me put together a few outfits. And while packing is usually the second worst part of a trip (unpacking still holds the top spot), this time it was different. She poured a glass of wine. I put on a record. And it almost felt like a date night. Rummaging through my closet, pulling things out, trying combinations, getting her take. It was fun. I’ll give you a second to grab your jaw from the floor. I said…
Webcams have changed a lot in the last five years. First, they got higher resolution sensors, getting us full 4K webcams. Then, they put in more advanced settings found in traditional cameras. Then, they got plenty of AI tech to improve both framing and image quality. The Elgato Facecam 4K takes things up a notch again by adding a built-in lens filter thread. That’s right, Elgato’s new streaming webcam can take standard 49mm filters, allowing users to introduce creative effects at the hardware level. No need to play around with the settings to make the image softer, add a distinct…
Kara made waves a couple years ago with the original Kara Pure, which literally pulled water from the air and made it perfectly potable. It’s the perfect device for a water-scarce dystopian future that, we’re hoping, doesn’t actually happen. This time around, they’re showing off the next generation of that unique water dispenser in the form of the Kara Pure 2. At first glance, it looks like any water dispenser. You know… the kind that lets you put your shaker bottle in and press a button to get some fresh water. Except, there’s no water jug on top nor does it have…
CES 2026 can’t get enough of Roborock’s one-pass smart home cleaning solution. Contrary to popular belief, January isn’t about overhauling your life. It’s about removing friction. The small, persistent annoyances that steal time and attention without asking permission. Cleaning is high on that list. Especially the kind that looks done but somehow leaves your floors damp, streaky, or mysteriously dirtier the next day. Just us? That’s what made us stop mid-scroll when we met the Qrevo Curv 2 Flow from Roborock. Not because it promised more power or louder specs, but because it went after something most machines get wrong. The…
Meta’s Ray Ban smart glasses have sold around two million units since its launch in 2023. Apparently, that’s encouraging enough that the outfit partnered with Oakley to release a whole new lineup earlier this year, while several established tech companies are now reportedly set to enter the nascent category. One of them just dropped now with the announcement of the HTC Vive Eagle. That’s right, HTC is taking a break from VR headsets to create these smart glasses and it’s looking like a solid competitor to Meta’s offerings. Whether you want smart glasses for hands-free video recording, open-ear music playback,…
