Every year technology makes life more convenient, and 2019 was no exception.
As we prepare to ring in the new year, we’re taking a look back at what helped us get through the last one. Popular Mechanics put together a list of the ten best tech gadgets of the year that people say they can’t live without.
For example, Apple Airpods. They did away with the cord, it comes with a case that charges them and three different sizes so you can find your perfect comfort level.
And the device you could find on almost everyone’s wrist this year? The Inspire HR Fit Bit. Users can improve their work-outs by tracking their heart rate and fitness levels. It also monitors your sleeping patterns to guide you through breathing sessions if you’re feeling a little stressed.
The Sonos bluetooth speaker put the rest to shame by being water resistant and capable of streaming without a solid wifi connection.
