Whether you are looking for gadgets as gift ideas, out of boredom or to treat yourself, we’ve got you covered. Check out some of the latest offerings on the tech market that might just be what you’ve been searching for.

Google Nest Cam
John Lewis: £89
If you’re looking for some additional security in your home, Google’s Nest Cam might just be the handy little gizmo you need. By downloading the Google Home app, you can get notifications immediately if anything occurs while you are out. And don’t worry about the nest cam being triggered by the cat; it can tell the difference between people, animals and passing cars.

Simply set up the cam on its built-in stand, whether you decide to mount it on the wall or place it on the shelf. The nest cam’s camera can do a 6x zoom and has a 135 degree field of vision, as well as night vision, ensuring nothing gets missed. Feel free to check in on the live feed while you’re at work, or even talk via the camera if you want to chat to your pet!

Graffiti Lava Lamp
Menkind.co.uk: £30
Remember these home accessories from the 90s and early noughties? The cool lamps that were all the rage and featured in bedrooms in teen movies, making you immediately want one? Well, I do and I think they need to make a comeback (although technically they have been around since the 60s, but my point stands).

Lava lamps give off that cool retro vibe, and the Graffiti Lava Lamp from Menkind is one that is sure to add some style to your home. Whether you appreciate items with a bit of a ‘vintage’ aesthetic, or just think it will look cool, why not consider making this the next addition to your bedroom decor.

Portable Digital Shower Radio
John Lewis: £49
We’re all guilty of singing in the shower from time to time, but if you really want to make the most of your solo, you need the portable digital shower radio from John Lewis. This cute little gadget is the perfect shower accessory; with its splash-proof 3W speaker, easy on/off buttons and handle, you can just leave it hanging.

Not to mention the radio packs up to 12 hours of battery life! And if you want to enjoy your favourite station out of the shower, you can use the headphone jack. When you’re done, just use the lock setting.
