Baking is the scientific side of the cooking world. Precise measurements, cooking times, and temperatures are essential for your culinary masterpiece to turn out the way you like. iDevices Kitchen Thermometer Mini takes the guesswork out of cooking by letting you monitor what you’re baking in real-time. Just pair the Mini with your smartphone, download and launch the iDevices app, and place the thermometer in the center of what you want to cook. The app displays a chart of your food’s temperature, which you can check from anywhere in your home, as long as you’re in Bluetooth range.
With the ability to set an alert when a certain temperature is reached, you can relax and not have to worry on constantly checking on your food. Taking things a step further, a combination published and user submitted recipe presets built into the app take the guesswork out of cooking. With an affordable price of $30 and its ease of use, this smart thermometer would make a great gift for the chef in your house!
Outdoor security cameras are not always practical if you live in an apartment or rental. Drilling into an exterior wall may be off-limits, while pointing a regular indoor camera through a window can create another problem once reflections start showing up after dark.
Baseus is trying to solve both issues with the new PrimeSentinel W1, a $69.99 security camera designed specifically to monitor the outdoors through glass. It mounts directly to a window without drilling and uses a 4K Starlight sensor with an F1.0 aperture for full-color monitoring during the day and at night.

Technology evolves every day, transforming how we live and work. Our devices are becoming more than tools we use. They are increasingly capable companions that help streamline day-to-day routines and spark creative ideas. If you have been waiting for the right moment to upgrade your tech setup, the Discover Samsung Shopping Event offers an opportunity to explore what connected, AI-powered living can look like.
With AI progressing so fast, it's only a matter of time before we start getting AI companions like the ones we used to see in movies like R2-D2, Wall-E, or Baymax. Now, Singapore-based OKA Technology has unveiled Mori, a cute little AI companion that looks less like a conventional home robot and more like someone turned the Pokémon Foongus into a table lamp.
Mori isn't meant to clean your house or control your smart home, but to serve as what OKA calls a "Nature Companion." It uses subtle movements, warm lighting, nature-inspired sounds, and small reactions to make its presence around the house feel calming rather than distracting. Mori can sit quietly while you read, sway along to music, welcome you when you enter a room, or encourage you to slow down for a moment without requiring a screen or a conversation.
