The 7 Best Gadgets and Tools not just for Millennials (not an Apple product in sight)

How many Apple products do you use? 1, 2, 5?

Apple has dominated the tech industry leading to a whole generation nicknamed the iGeneration. However, technology moves fast and with it comes to a bunch of gadgets that are designed to make our lives easier. Gadgets are not just for the millennials, they’re for everyone and I have put together a list of the 7 best gadgets for a more convenient and cool life (and they won’t break the bank either).

#1 MondoThe bank as smart as your phone

Mondo is essentially a pre-paid debit card, and an app that connects together so beautifully you should never have to worry about your bank balance again.

Mondo is a contactless card that connects directly to an app on your phone to give you instant updates and visuals on how much you’re spending and what on. The best thing about Mondo is it will only let you spend what you have – it isn’t interested in offering you overdrafts and loans, it purely exists for your convenience. In fact, it is currently so popular, you have to wait while the produce your card, as the demand is so high!

If you do need to reign in your spending, visit the iGrad Pay-E calculator to work out just how to pay back those student loans, bank loans and overdrafts without the stress of a payment plan.

#2 FitBit

Another all in one convenient app/ gadget combo that connects the amount you exercise to an app on your smartphone.

FitBit is great for anyone trying to shift a few pounds or trying to adopt a healthy lifestyle. It measures steps, heart rate, calories and much more! A great gadget for anyone looking for some extra help to get fit.

#3 Recorded Television (and digital recording)


I asked my 48-year-old father before, what is the one gadget he cannot live without. His response – Sky Plus (Sky +). A box that will pause, rewind and record live television.

No longer do we have to schedule our day around what’s on TV. We can watch it at our own convenience and it has literally changed our lives.

#4 Writing Daddy

Why I ever wasted my time proofreading my own work, missing spelling and punctuation mistakes, when someone could have done it for me, I’ll never know.

Writing Daddy is an online service rather than a gadget where you can upload your work and get someone to edit and proofread it for you. It’s cheap, convenient and most of all, a high-quality service that will save you lots of time when writing important things like essays, word documents, and presentations.

#5 Wireless Key Finder

How much time would you save if you could press a button to find your keys the moment you lost them? This concept blew my mind when I first heard about it. It’s so simple yet so effective.

Attach a key ring or ‘tile’ to your keys, phone, and wallet. Lose them. Press a button and they’ll flash and beep, helping you locate them 10 x faster.

#6 The Tablet

While many thought the laptop would die a death due to the tablet, they’re still going strong years later. However, there’s no denying that the tablet is a small, convenient equivalent to the tablet for you everyday internet surfing, game playing and note taking.

The tablet is probably one of the most convenient gadgets to have with you on the go, whether you’re going on holiday, going into a meeting or just sitting on your sofa at home. There’s no doubting the tablet has a place in every home and office in the 21st.

#7 Prynt Phone Case

The Prynt Phone Case is an attachable phone case that is available for best-selling smartphones. The phone case can be used in the same way a Polaroid or instant camera can be used. You snap and it prints your photos.

However, the prynt phone case does more than just print photos. Connected with an app, you can edit, filter and add text to any image. It also adds another dimension by allow you to use the app to unlock a small video that was taken at the time you snapped your photo. This innovative gadget could hold the key to all your future memories pinned on your fridge instantly.

So, there you have it, the 7 best gadgets (not just for millennials or the iGeneration). Oh, and the best part? Every single one of them can be bought for under $100!
