Bluetooth technology has come a long way. If you still associate it with synching your phone to your car for hands-free phone calls, then you might be surprised by what Bluetooth technology is out there. Here are some of our favorite Bluetooth gadgets and gizmos that will make your life easier in 2019:
Keep Your Home Secure
Did you lock your door this morning? Just like leaving the iron on, clicking the lock is one of those pesky tasks that we often fret we have forgotten. To save driving home to check, or worrying all day, why not invest in one of the latest Bluetooth door locks and save yourself the hassle? You can lock your door with the click of a button, whether you are out the front in your car or already at work. It makes it straightforward to let in a tradesperson while you aren’t home, and you no longer have to worry about losing your key and having to call the locksmith. You can quickly reconfigure the locks, which makes them both user-friendly and secure.
Improve your Toothbrushing Technique
Tooth and gum health not only leaves you with a beautiful smile and minty fresh breath, but it may also help you to minimize your risk of stroke, diabetes, heart disease, dementia, and respiratory issues. So when was the last time you brushed up on your brushing technique? The latest smart toothbrushes can clean, whiten, and polish your teeth, as well as telling you whether you have missed a spot or are brushing too hard. Plus they have unique gamified versions to encourage kids to brush properly without an argument each morning and night.
Track Your Sleep Quality
A good night’s sleep is crucial for your mental and physical health, and to ensure that you are getting a high quality of life. But many of us struggle to clock in the full recommended 7-8 hours of sleep a day. By using one of the latest Bluetooth sleep monitors on the market, you can track your nightly sleep cycles and how many times you wake up each night. The options range from watches to rings to headbands, or a pad that slips under your mattress at nighttime. Depending on what you choose, you can also track your heart rate, temperature, breathing, and external noise sources.
Turn Off All Your Lights Without Getting Out of Bed
No longer do you need to run around switching off lights when it is time to go to sleep. With one flick of a button on your smartphone, or voice command, you can turn them off from the cozy comfort of your bed. You can install smart light bulbs, which plug into a standard light socket but are controlled via your favorite virtual assistant. Alternatively, you can opt for smart light switches. They are generally more affordable than purchasing multiple smart globes, are easier to install if you have high ceilings, and are operated via an app. They do require some minor electrical wiring so call in an electrician if you aren’t confident in that area.
Listen to Music Via Your Sunglasses
Yep, you read that right. One of the latest releases in smart wearables is audio sunglasses that allow you to stream music or podcasts and make phone calls. The best part? You don’t need to plug anything into your ears to listen, and the noise isn’t audible to the people around you.
There you have it. Five surprising things you can with the latest and greatest Bluetooth technology on the market. What is your must-have Bluetooth technology gadget?
