5 Pocket-Sized Gadgets That Make Life Easier
These are gadgets are small enough to go without you anywhere--and will make your life so much easier.
There’s a joy in having the stuff you need when you need it. When you’re home, if you’re prepared, you’re likely to have everything you could ever want, but when you travel, camp, commute, or are otherwise away from your home and your things, you might find yourself a little less prepared than you’d like. Enter the future of pocket sized gadgets: the things you may not have known you needed are not only possible, they’re readily available.
From credit card-sized multitools to a projector that fits in your pocket and a keyboard that folds up in thirds for easy travel anywhere you might need it, the future has arrived and it is accessible. Not only will these make your life easier any time of year, they also make great stocking stuffers, gifts to coworkers and neighbor kids around the holidays.
Below you’ll find the 5 pocket sized gadgets that’ll make your life easier and if that’s not easy enough, they’re available on Amazon.

Take it camping, keep it in your car, never leave home with it.
