Another day, another earbud deal, am I right? Here's why this one is noteworthy: JLab is a known, respected brand, not some made-up Amazon seller you've never heard of.
What's more, the charging case has a built-in USB cable, so there's one less thing to worry about when traveling. (Weirdly, though, it has no lid, but magnets should keep the 'buds from popping out.) The noise-isolating earbuds can be used independently, and you can quickly switch between three specially tuned sound modes: Signature, Balanced and Bass Boost.
Perhaps best of all, JLab backs the Go Air with a two-year warranty. CNET hasn't reviewed it, but reviews elsewhere are mostly positive. Twenty bucks!
I'm still not sure why Apple couldn't manage to create this product. It's a Qi charging base for your phone, AirPods (those in a wireless charging case) and Apple Watch, and it's a genuinely great deal at this price.
Take note, however, that you'll need to install your existing Apple Watch charging pad; Aukey's base is basically just a stand for it. What's more, there's no AC adapter included, so you'll need to supply your own QuickCharge 3.0-compatible USB port. (That's annoyingly common with Qi chargers.) Don't have one? Here's a two-pack for $10.

I never thought I'd be singing the praises of something so trivial as touchless soap dispensers, but here we are. Love these things. This model looks a little swankier than some of the super-cheap ones I've shared previously, and it's smarter as well: It offers four output settings instead of just two, and it works with a variety of liquids.
Thus, you can use this not just for hand soap, but also for shampoo, laundry detergent, even hand-sanitizer. It can hold up to 15 ounces, so you don't have to fill it as often as smaller dispensers. The four AA batteries required to operate it, however? Not included.
