The good news? You don't have to be a tech expert to set-up and use the latest gadgets in your everyday life, but you may need someone to put them on your radar.
If you caught Drew Kozub on BT today with his smart vacuum or that keyboard for smartphones, and are looking to learn more, you've come to the right spot!
For your smart home or your smartphone, this week on the Geeking Out TV segment, we're looking at practical and easy-to-use gadgets that everyone can enjoy!
Roborock Saros 20
Robotic vacuums have been around for years. But today's models are so smart they don't just take care of cleaning your home, they also take care of cleaning themselves!
Meet the Roborock Saros 20 a robotic vacuum and mob combination with an advanced decision making system that helps it navigate rooms, avoid obstacles, and now, even lift itself over thresholds to clean your whole house.
Roborock Saros 20: Coolest Features
- Navigates Like a Genius: This gadget intelligently maps your home layout using a "3D vision platform," which can recognize over 300 objects (power cords, clothing, pets, and more) and come up with a precise plan to clean your home.
- Edge-to-Edge Cleaning: Even though it runs quietly, the suction power on this robot is massive! It uses 36,000 pascals of suction and something called a FlexiArm to reach into corners where dust, crumbs, and pet hair build-up.
- Stain Recognition: This robot is clever enough to detect different stain types (like coffee, cat litter, or mud from outdoors) and choose the right suction or cleaning functions to deal with the mess.
- Cleans Itself: A dual reservoir system ensures the mop only uses clean water (heated to 100°C) to clean your floors, dumping the dirty water back in its docking station. The base also removes and stores the mop attachments while your robot is vacuuming.
Saros 20 isn't just another robotic vacuum; it's a mopping, vacuuming decision-making system for real homes. Instead of simply reacting to commands, Saros 20 moves easily from room to room, continuously interprets spaces, and automatically adjusts how it cleans, so you don't have to constantly change settings or manually intervene, delivering true "set it and forget it" cleaning. It can even conquer thresholds up to 3.46 inches in height with Adaptalift Chassis 3.0 technology, allowing it to transition between rooms with uneven flooring and navigate your home with ease!

The pain points of robotic vacuums and mops of the past are eliminated with the Roborock Saros 20. Beyond the above mentioned features, this device has an Adaptlift Chassis that can raise the robot 3.46 inches in height to clear thresholds between rooms.

Rise and Shine
As more and more people are making the (wise) choice to keep their smartphones out of their bedrooms, demand for dedicated alarm clocks is back.
But why just buy a regular old clock when you can get one that also helps set the perfect environment for sleep?
The Hatch Restore 3 is a minimalist-looking alarm clock with a few onboard smarts to help you maximize your sleeptime routine.
Hatch Restore 3: Coolest Features
- Sleep Environment: Using lights and sounds this alarm clock helps establish a bedtime routine to help you improve your sleep hygiene.
- Gentle Wakeup: This clock supports your natural circadian rhythm and allows you to wake up to an increasingly bright light (followed by gentle audio) rather than a blaring alarm.

- Simple Design: There's basically one big button that does everything depending on whether you twist it or push it.
Hatch Restore 3
This alarm clock and sound machine is a perfect addition to any bedroom, but especially if you're breaking up with keeping your phone beside your bed. It can use lights and sounds to ease you into sleep or gently wake you up. There's a subscription available for $70 per year to unlock additional features, like guided meditations. It's available in three colours.
Newest MacBook
In the world of tech, we're used to "New" meaning more powerful, more features, and often, more expensive.
In April of 2026, Apple revealed a new category of MacBook. But this time, they're leaning into the core experience that people want from a Mac and figuring out how to deliver that with as low a price tag as possible.
MacBook Neo: Coolest Features
The MacBook Neo comes in two models, with the main differences being the more expensive one has a button with a built-in fingerprint reader (for unlocking your computer and verifying purchases) and has double the storage for photos, videos, and more (256 GB instead of 128 GB)
- Processing Power: Surprisingly, these laptops are powered by the same processor (brains) that are in the iPhone 16 Pro models.
- Display Size: These Macbooks come in one size option with a 13-inch Liquid Retina display.
- Battery Life: You can expect 16 hours of video playback on a full charge (and in my testing I could basically go "all day" without needing the laptop plugged in).
Macbook Neo
The Macbook Neo comes in four very fun colours and is a great computer for anyone who is just looking for something reliable for basic everyday tasks (not a power user). It has a built-in camera and microphone for video calls and Facetime and is the lowest cost Macbook in Apple's line-up.
