Most modern home security solutions have a couple things in common: Internet connectivity, which is great, and cameras, which are not so great — if you're extra worried about privacy. The Point Home Security Device gives you the benefits of the former without the concerns of the latter. Point requires no wires, as it connects via Wi-Fi, runs on regular replaceable batteries, and features built-in lights and a speaker to communicate at home and an app for when you're away. An array of sensors includes a particle detector to detect smoke and other common home hazards, a thermostat, a humidity sensor to check for water leaks and/or mold, and a microphone to sense things like doors opening or windows breaking. And since all the analysis is done on the device, no audio is ever recorded, or even sent out over the 'net. Just the way we like it.

Birchbox Man

The products you use every day, like shampoo or shave cream, should always be the best. But drugstore pickings are slim, and online shopping is risky when you don't know what you're paying for. That's why Birchbox Man lets you try before you buy. Subscribers receive a monthly box of grooming and style essentials, all tailored to match their personal profiles. Think woodsy beard oil for the urban lumberjack, or a wool knit tie for the sartorially inclined.

No more letdowns, duds, or compromises: Just a sink ledge stocked with greatness.

It's not the first to market, but is the first that doesn't require a backpack or some sort of special headset. It's a plug and play immersive experience ideal for music lovers and gamers that is the size of a matchbox.

Amazon Echo

It's a speaker. It's a music system. And much more. The Amazon Echo is a new cloud-connected gadget designed around your voice. Always on, you wake it by saying "Alexa", then asking it questions or giving it commands. Want to know the weather? Just ask. Want to add something to your shopping list? Done. In the mood for some Beatles? Say the words. With dual down-firing speakers, it produces surprisingly rich sound, and thanks to integrated Bluetooth, it also syncs with the Echo app, and lets you stream music from any source you want — although you probably won't have to use the feature very often, as it offers built-in support for your Amazon Music Library, Prime Music, TuneIn, and iHeartRadio.

Kaleidescape Cinema One

Blu-ray offers outstanding quality, but all the hassles of a disc. Direct downloads from Amazon, iTunes, and Google Play are incredibly convenient, but highly compressed. The Kaleidescape Cinema One combines the best of both worlds. Thanks to beefy internal storage, it can store up to 100 movies in Blu-Ray quality, whether you load them in disc-by-disc or download them from the Kaleidescape Store. When it's time to watch something, the award-winning interface makes it easier than finding the remote. And should you need even more storage, you can add another unit for double the storage, or go full cinephile with the DV700 Disc Vault that holds a whopping 320 Blu-Ray discs.
