It didn't take long for those of us attending CES 2015 last week to figure out one of the hottest tech trends of the year: Stylish fitness trackers that look absolutely nothing like fitness trackers. And trust me, I'm not complaining. Up…

I've seen no shortage of solar chargers , many of which we've featured here on Cool Mom Tech. But the new Helios solar charger from Solpro that we discovered at CES 2015 lets you charge smarter and waaaay faster. Yep, the new Helios only…

As a frequent traveler, I've come to terms with the fact that I carry a big pouch around with way too many cords, accessories, portable chargers , and backups to the portable chargers. Even so, I'm always looking for ways to lighten the …

Even though the temperature is falling, I'm still spending plenty of time outside, which is a lot more fun when I've got warm and cozy ears and an upbeat playlist to keep me company. So I'm eyeing this fun pleated tech headphones headban…

Oh friends, you probably know as well as I do how annoying it is when your long charging cords don't reach where you need to be because they are not really long enough. As in, they are never long enough. This is why I will be ordering up…

We're so pleased to share our annual Holiday Tech Gift guide with you all, starting with one of the categories you all ask us for the most: The coolest Tech gifts for guys under $50. Of course we'd like plenty of them too--coolness often…

I have become a total battery power junkie, never leaving home without at least two portable chargers. Well, that's including my charging case, to be fair. Partly it's the dreaded iPhone battery drain that I've experienced more than I'd …

We have covered tons of gorgeous mobile phone and tablet cases on Cool Mom Tech over the years, many of which I covet. But I'm really in love with pretty much every leather gadget case on the Looptworks site, not only because they're bea…

I've logged thousands of miles running and cycling, which is not only a good way to counteract my love for carbs, but also to evaluate how I can comfortably carry all the stuff I need while I'm out. I'm talking about my phone, my keys, m…

We have covered hundreds, if not millions (Okay, probably not millions) of mobile phone cases over the years, and loads of mobile phone chargers too. But this super cool Indiegogo project I just learned about named Juse is the first sola…

I have a little thing for pop culture icons but I tend to reserve actual photos on my smart phone case for pictures of my kids. That's why the cool smart phone cases from Simple People on Casetify I just discovered are perfect, even for …

A long time ago, on an iPhone far, far away... It is a time for playing after school. Rebel children fight with sticks, making whomp-whomp noises. One child swears she's Darth Vader, the other claims to be a farm boy who wants more blue …

I've seen a many a travel charger, but none of them have been as handy--or stylish--as the tassel charging cable keychain I spotted at Cool Mom Tech fave Photojojo . Don't they look like something you'd find at Coach in the accessories d…

Since launching this site, I am slowly becoming something of a headphone snob. Let's just say I was at one time able to buy the cheapie earbuds from the airline and be perfectly satisfied. Now? Not so much. If you're like me, and care mo…

I'm always looking for good, affordable earbuds since I find that most of the ones I come across are either one or the other. So I'm happy to discover the new Pocket earbuds (though they call them "headsets") from Sweden's Degauss Labs w…

The idea makes perfect sense: a portable, high performance solar charger for my smart devices that -- best part -- is actually compact enough to carry around. That's the gist behind the Solarpod Buddy solar charger . It sounds kind of ne…

And the award for best use of half a used plastic toy goes to...the dinosaur iPhone stand ! Not that there was a ton of competition, mind you, but how can you not totally love these upcycled toys-turned-gadget stands? From the look of it…

Yes, we take photos of basically everything in the known universe with our smartphones. It's how we roll these days, and best to just accept it. But the one persistent drawback with this is trying to get a good pic at night or in low lig…

Update: It seems a future proof charging dock wasn't future proof after all; now you can check out the Dual Charging Dock for iPhone and Apple Watch if you like the look of DODOCase. So we're already fans of DODOCase (the mere mention ge…

It's been a big week for Otterbox around here. First they wow us with their new Agility series of iPad cases and accessories, and now they add to their Otterbox Symmetry Series high-style cases with a new design from Nina Garcia who is p…

If you thought that encasing your tablet in an Otterbox case was like giving it a bulletproof vest, the new Otterbox Agility System is sheathing it in an entire Iron Man style exoskeleton armor system. (However it does not come with Robe…

Considering I was making the kids' lunches the other day and found my phone in the pantry, I really think I need a dedicated gadget like Phone Finder to help me keep track of my all-important-everything-device. I'm not the only one, righ…

I guess I'm hanging out with some pretty cool moms because they've all got some stylish smart phone cases. Problem is, they've all got pretty much the same ones. (Hello, well-known designers!) So when I decided to switch up my current bo…

I still can't believe how small and smart Kii is, a compact charger that fits right on your keychain. Hence the name. Get it? Now we've loved Bluelounge ever since we featured their CableBox awhile back, and their new Kii falls right in …
