iHome iSP5 Smartplug

For those looking to beef up their home automation, iHome released a new wall plug called the iSP5 that plays nice with Android and Apple HomeKit. Using the app, you can remotely turn on or off any connected appliance, set schedules for them to flip later, and organize scenes that activate multiple Smartplugs at once. You won't have to get a separate router for this to work, just connect it to your existing Wi-Fi router. Though other systems like Belkin WeMo are out there, iHome's family of products promises to grow in the future.

YONO Fertility Friend

One particularly interesting Kickstarter project went live this week that aims to ease along the baby-making process. A big part of figuring out times of maximum fertility is determining basal temperature, that is, the lowest temperature a woman's body reaches. This nifty earplug called YONO reads that temperature during sleep, pairs it with a mobile app, which then offers suggestions for when to take a crack at conceiving. Though very niche, this is an interesting take on helping couples overcome important challenges. YONO Fertility Friend earbuds are expected to start shipping in November.

Coolest Cooler

For those that need to go absolutely overboard at their beach outings, barbecues, and tailgating, this cooler is the way to go. The Coolest doesn't just keep your beers chilly. There's also a blender for mixed drinks. There's a built-in Bluetooth speaker. There's a USB port to charge your phone or other gadgets. There's a bottle opener. It's also crazy expensive, but it will be the end-all-be-all cooler of your every summer from here on out. Take a deep breath and get one of these if your summers are full of cold drinks outside.

Spigen Wallet case for Note 5

If you're sold on the Samsung Galaxy Note 5, you'll probably want to get it covered. Spigen has made some great cases in the past, and they had one available for the Note 5 right after the announcement. The simple and stylish wallet case lets you carry around three cards and some cash inside the front cover while the magnetic clip keeps everything cozy when closed. When the case is open, it can prop up your Note 5 as a stand. Check out our hands-on with Spigen's S6 wallet case for an idea of what to expect. If you're hauling around a big phone anyway, you might as well double up on storage.
