Orange juice is great for you. It’s packed with Vitamin C, antioxidants, citric acid, and anti-inflammatory compounds. The problem is that juicing an orange is a little more annoying than it should be. You need to cut the oranges, manually juice each cut half, strain the pulp, and then wash your hands because you got juice all over them. It takes way too long to get one glass of OJ and you end up smelling like oranges in the process. It’s much more convenient to buy a carton of orange juice, and that’s quite a shame… Which is why a Barcelona-based startup Citring designed the Citring One, a citrus juicer that works about as fast as a Keurig or a Nespresso takes to make coffee. Just add the oranges, press a button, and you’ve got yourself a glass of fresh juice. Sounds too good to be true, right?
Well, if you think of how Nespresso and Keurig made coffee-brewing as simple as inserting a pod and hitting a button, the Citring One does the same for all citrus-based fruits. About the size of a coffee maker, the Citring One squeezes and juices 3 fruits at a time, eliminating the need for elbow grease, straining pulp, and cleaning yourself up after. Just open the lid and insert up to 3 whole citrus fruits in the silicon container. Shut the lid, place a glass under the dispenser, and hit the button on the Citring One. Once you do, something rather interesting happens. A slicer ascends upwards, guillotining the fruit into two halves, before using compressed air to press into the cut fruit and squeeze its juice out. Juice is dispensed to your glass through the same silicone container, so there is no need to clean any additional parts.
1) Put up to 3 whole oranges in the machine. No need to cut them. 2) In about a minute, your juice will be ready. 3) Citring will automatically squeeze the oranges and pour the juice into your glass.
The entire process is absolutely foolproof because you don’t need to do anything at all. The Citring One cuts and juices your fruit for you, giving you empty hemispheres of squeezed fruit that you can then throw away. The interface has all but one button, so you don’t need to worry about any settings, modes, or a smartphone app that tells you how much Vitamin C intake you’ve had all day. Drinking juice is good for you and the simpler the process the better. Every few uses, the BPA-free food-grade silicone containers inside the Citring One can be removed and rinsed under running water or in your dishwasher. The technology under its hood is impressive, and the overall product even secured an iF Design Award this year for how simple and foolproof it is.
Aside from being a little larger than your citrus juicer or even your blender, the Citring One does sport a $289 price tag which would make anyone reconsider… But think about a few things. You’d pay the same amount for a coffee machine, so why not a juicer? After all, juice is great for you. Secondly, those cartons of juice are filled with more sugar than fruit, and the costs add up when you end up buying a carton every week. Fresh fruit (especially from a farmer’s market) is a lot cheaper, and actually helps you regulate how much added sugar you consume in a day. Moreover, the Citring One works with other citrus fruits too, from lemons and limes to grapefruits, tangerines, mandarins, blood oranges, etc. It’s perfect for people who love consuming fruit, and just personally, makes for a great addition at juice cafes or restaurants/canteens wanting to offer juice that doesn’t get fresher than this. The Citring One comes in 2 colors, an all-black version and a stormtrooper black + white variant, and ships globally.
The Ultrahuman Home is an advanced home health device designed to track and improve key environmental markers such as light exposure, air quality, and noise levels. It establishes a unique connection between your living space and personal health, going beyond typical home monitors by offering a comprehensive analysis over time. This analysis correlates your external health markers with internal health markers, providing insights that can lead to impactful lifestyle changes. This is a first for the wearable space.
The Ultrahuman Home features an innovative aero-flow design to enhance airflow and sensitivity in detecting a range of harmful particles, from pollen to particulate matter (PM). This design improves the device’s ability to capture and analyze air samples, thus increasing accuracy in identifying pollutants that may compromise your home’s air quality. Pollens, particularly from birch, are known to exacerbate respiratory conditions such as allergic asthma. The device is specially calibrated to monitor these allergens, alerting you to increased levels that could impact those with sensitive respiratory systems. Furthermore, particulate matter—classified by size into PM 1, PM 2.5, and PM 10—poses inhalation risks, with smaller particles capable of penetrating deep into the lungs and causing significant respiratory and cardiovascular damage. In addition to particulate matter, the system continuously monitors formaldehyde levels, a common volatile organic compound that can be harmful in indoor environments. It sends timely nudges when formaldehyde levels cross the recommended threshold, allowing you to take corrective measures promptly. This comprehensive monitoring ensures that the Ultrahuman Home identifies poor air quality and provides actionable insights to optimize and improve the air quality of your environment.
Ultrahuman Home continuously monitors formaldehyde levels in your living space and sends timely nudges when the levels cross the recommended threshold.
The Ultrahuman Home also monitors harmful gases such as carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide to ensure the air you breathe is safe, promoting mental clarity and health. Good air quality is essential as it directly impacts your respiratory health, cognitive function, and overall well-being. High levels of carbon monoxide, a colorless and odorless gas, can cause serious health issues such as headaches, dizziness, and even life-threatening conditions like carbon monoxide poisoning. Elevated carbon dioxide levels can lead to fatigue, impaired concentration, and decreased cognitive performance.
Regardless of the space you choose to place it in, Ultrahuman Home will help track various markers to help you with a deeper insight into your home health.
This device’s ability to detect these harmful gases is life-saving. Poor air quality can exacerbate respiratory conditions such as asthma and allergies, and prolonged exposure to pollutants can increase the risk of chronic diseases, including cardiovascular issues and lung cancer. By continuously monitoring and providing actionable insights on these harmful gases, the system helps you maintain a safer living environment. This proactive approach not only enhances your quality of life but also significantly reduces the risk of severe health complications, making it an indispensable tool for health and safety.
Ultrahuman Home utilizes continuous temperature tracking for enhancing sleep efficiency and regulating circadian rhythm.
The ‘UltraSpaces’ feature of the Ultrahuman Home allows you to monitor various ‘Spaces’ like the living room, bedroom, or office, which are tailored to the areas you and your family frequent the most, including children’s rooms and personal workspaces. Each space is evaluated with a designated ‘Space Score,’ giving a comprehensive view of the area’s health. This feature aids in examining each environmental marker, enabling you to optimize conditions for better health based on specific needs within the Ultrahuman app. This capability offers deeper insights into your health by effectively tying together data from various environments.
The continuous temperature tracking of the Ultrahuman Home is crucial. It enhances sleep efficiency and regulates circadian rhythms by monitoring the temperature of your living spaces. Maintaining an optimal bedroom temperature is important for good sleep quality, as the body’s core temperature naturally fluctuates and decreases at bedtime. Temperature imbalances can disturb sleep, leading to increased wakefulness and reduced REM sleep, affecting how rested you feel and increasing the risk of obesity and other health issues. Equipped with ultra-sensitive temperature sensors, the device detects if a room is too hot or too cold, providing feedback on the ideal temperature needed for optimal sleep. This feature ensures you get a restful night’s sleep and maintain long-term health by aligning your environment with your body’s needs.
Exposure to natural light plays a crucial role in setting your circadian rhythm and boosting mood and productivity, especially within the first hour of waking. The Ultrahuman Home’s built-in photo-detecting sensors monitor spectra of UV light, including UVA, UVB, and UVC, to measure natural light levels within your living space. This allows you to create environments that foster better sleep-wake cycles and enhance overall well-being.
Daytime exposure to blue light can enhance alertness and cognitive function, boosting mood and productivity. However, at night, it can disrupt melatonin production, the hormone that regulates sleep, leading to sleep difficulties and reduced sleep quality. Research, including studies from Harvard Medical School, confirms that nighttime blue light exposure decreases overall sleep quality. The Ultrahuman Home includes sensors that automatically monitor blue light exposure and provide actionable insights to regulate it. You’re alerted by the Ultrahuman app for the best times to reduce screen exposure and modify ambient lighting to support your natural sleep cycle.
Integrated with the device’s health tracking system, these sensors allow for personalized recommendations based on your daily blue light exposure and sleep patterns, enhancing both your sleep-wake cycle and overall well-being. This holistic approach helps align your environment with your body’s rhythm, improving your health by helping you mitigate the negative effects of blue light.
Environmental noise can disrupt sleep and elevate stress levels. The Ultrahuman Home addresses this by providing insights into optimal noise levels, helping to create a more ambient living environment.
Equipped with precision microphones, the device detects snoring patterns that might indicate sleep disturbances, such as potential sleep apnea events. A built-in physical mic cut-off ensures your privacy is respected, and all audio data is processed on the device to keep personal information secure. A manual mic control provides additional peace of mind.
Monitoring and managing indoor humidity levels are crucial for respiratory and overall health. The device provides actionable recommendations to adjust humidity levels, ensuring your home environment remains balanced and comfortable. High humidity levels can increase bacteria growth and encourage mold. On the flip side, low humidity levels can cause dry airways and affect your lungs.
Ultrahuman Home not only works in isolation but also in combination with Ultrahuman Ring. Through UltraSync technology, experience a unified view of both internal and external health markers. This enhances your understanding of how your surroundings affect your health, providing a holistic way to manage your health.
Ultrahuman Home doesn’t just stop at integrating with the Ring. Thanks to its compatibility with IFTTT protocols, the Ultrahuman Home can integrate seamlessly with other smart devices in your home, enabling voice commands through popular digital assistants for a smarter, more responsive living environment.

Additionally, blue light sensors promote a healthy sleep-wake cycle. With effective noise and humidity levels monitoring, UltraSync technology, and smart home integration, the Ultrahuman Home helps you live healthier.
I assure you you’ve never seen a tactical knife so beautifully rustic as this.
Most tactical EDC tend to go for either a minimalist design with slick surfaces, a cutting-edge all-metal design that’s made to intimidate, or a gentlemanly design with prim details and classic materials. The Mossy Oak Mini Folding Pocket Knife is none of those. With an aesthetic that looks like nature took over the design process somewhere down the middle, the Mossy Oak Mini is an EDC knife that looks rough around the edges, but is a sophisticated flipper that packs a deadly punch. Aside from being a folding knife, the Mossy Oak Mini also has a bottle opener, a seatbelt cutter, and a glass breaker, all woven into its salt-of-the-earth homespun-ish aesthetic.
The knife’s beauty lies in its imperfections. It doesn’t opt for glossy handles and polished blades. The blade sports a gorgeous stonewashed finish, while the handle itself is hand-made from walnut wood, with its gorgeous wood-grain that shines through beautifully thanks to the lack of a polish or varnish coating. The result is a knife that FEELS natural to the touch. Your eyes fall in love first, then your hands, resulting in an EDC whose appeal lies on a multisensorial level.
The blade itself comes with a clip-point style, sporting an edge with a curved belly and a pronounced tip that makes the Mossy Oak Mini great for cutting, piercing, slashing, scraping, whittling, etc. The curved edge allows you to rock your knife while you cut, making it easier to chop items against a surface. A groove at the rear end of the edge lets you comfortably rest your index finger, while jimping on the top gives you a place to rest your thumb.
However, that isn’t all that the Mossy Oak Mini is good for. A scalloped edge on top of the blade gives you the perfect detail to cut ropes, tough paracord, or even a car seatbelt, making the Mossy Oak Mini great for emergencies. Need to get out of a pickle, the base of the handle also has a glass-breaker tip, allowing you to strike your Mossy Oak against any glass surface, causing it to shatter – a feature that, when combined with the seatbelt cutter, makes the Mossy Oak quite the life-saver. When all’s said and done, you can celebrate your new lease on life with a drink by using the knife’s built-in bottle opener.
The knife comes with an ergonomic walnut handle that feels wonderfully grippy during use, but the ergonomic details also allow you to easily open the knife by using your nails or fingertips to pry the blade open. Once open, the blade gets locked in place using a liner-lock, so that it doesn’t ever accidentally shut on you during use.
The Mossy Oak Mini’s blade measures just 2.5 inches, putting it in the small-blade category but not by a lot. A medium-length blade is said to start around the 3-inch mark, so the Mossy Oak Mini’s blade still feels usable with zero compromise (in fact, the inclusion of the rope/cord cutter on the top makes it even more functional). The blade sits inside the knife’s 3.5-inch handle, which is the perfect balance between compact and ergonomic. The entire knife weighs just 3.1 ounces (87 grams), and despite its pleasantly low $12.99 price tag, also packs a pocket clip along with a lanyard hole located within the glass-breaker detail.

Think about it, what’s more effective, gargling or a water-flosser? One just casually has water swirling in your mouth, another targets food and plaque, actually cleaning your teeth. The Razor Rinser applies the same principle to your shaving razor. Unlike running your razor under a tap to clean the hair out, the Razor Rinser fires tiny jets of water between your razor blades, pushing the hair out and cleaning your razor without wasting water. It’s simple, runs without electricity, and uses an ingenious water-saving design that lets you effectively clean hair off your razor… with just 4 ounces of water.
Designed by two US Navy veterans, the Razor Rinser is just one of those designs that makes you go “Why didn’t anyone think of that before?” Most people who shave do one of two things – they either periodically rinse their razor under running tap water, getting their sink dirty while just superficially cleaning the razor, or they dip their razor in a cup of water, using less water in the process, but making a mess. Both methods have their flaws, the biggest being that they don’t do a good job of actually cleaning your razor efficiently.
Realizing that water wastage and dirty razors were a significant problem (after all, the average male shaves at least once every 2-3 days resulting in a lot of running tap water getting wasted), Navy vets Matt and Andy decided to develop the Razor Rinser, a device no larger than a soap tray, but with a big impact. The Razor Rinser keeps your sink mess-free, uses a fraction of the water you’d otherwise use, and does a much better job of cleaning your razor by actually forcing water through the blades to push the hair out.
The way the Razor Rinser works is exceptionally clever. Fill the Rinser’s container with water before you begin to shave. Once you need to clean your razor, simply press the razor head into the Rinser’s ‘island’. The island presses downwards, pumping water through it like a bellow. The water passes through a stainless steel spray manifold, turning into high-pressure jets that shoot through the razor’s blades. The dirty water flows outwards into the Razor Rinser’s moat, and 150-micron stainless steel filters trap the hair outside, allowing fresh water to get recycled back into the bellow island – ensuring your razor gets cleaned with clean water. The entire thing works without cords, batteries, or electricity – just good old physics.
All you effectively need is 4 ounces of water, as compared to the 1 gallon you’d otherwise waste running your razor under a tap every other minute. The water (with the hair and shaving cream) stays collected in the Rinser’s outer channel or moat, allowing you to simply dump it out (in the toilet) once you’re done. No dirty sinks, no dirty razors, and no wasted water. The rinser works with any brand or kind of cartridge razor, whether you’re using it to shave your jaw stubble, body, head, or legs.
Andy and Matt developed the Razor Rinser soon after being deployed to the Red Sea on a Guided Missile Destroyer in 2022. As a part of their uniform, Navy personnel are required to shave every day – multiply that by the 100’s of sailors on the destroyer, and the fact that there were just a handful of bathrooms. These bathrooms got very crowded and dirty very fast, and Andy and Matt also realized exactly how much water they were wasting. A year and a few prototypes later, the Razor Rinser was born. The rinser starts at a discounted $29 and ships internationally… but more importantly, Andy and Matt are also committed to donating Razor Rinsers to homeless veterans, allowing them the dignity of a clean shave without needing a bathroom sink.

Most smartphone cases just act as a protective cover for your device, or an intermediary hub for attaching accessories. PITAKA’s new PinButton Case actually gives your smartphone new features. With three extra buttons on the left edge, the PinButton Case for the Galaxy S24 Ultra gives you three ‘Action Buttons’ that open apps or trigger features, allowing you to press buttons instead of scroll, minimize, swipe, and open apps from an app tray. Better still, the PinButton Case also comes with MagSafe compatibility, turning your Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra into a better version of itself with features that would make Apple fanboys rather jealous!

A protective Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra MagSafe case with PinButtons
The PinButton Case is the logical next step for Pitaka’s case-making efforts. While the company has perfected the art of building some spectacularly beautiful MagEZ cases for both iOS and Android devices (with a glue-free Amber Magnet Film on the inside and patented woven Aramid fibers on the outside), the PinButton Case comes as the evolutionary upgrade to those cases. The PinButton sports a TPU bumper that cushions your phone from accidental drops, but upgrades the back with a woven Aramid fiber plate that’s 5X stronger than steel and can withstand impact and scratches without letting your phone face the brunt of the damage. A luxurious Nappa leather interior cushions the S24 Ultra’s glass back, keeping it scratch or crack-free. In between the two sits an array of magnets that gives your S24 Ultra MagSafe compatibility, allowing you to use a slew of third-party accessories or even PITAKA’s own MagEZ accessories with your phone.
Customized PinButtons for quick access to preset apps.
The crown jewel, however, has to be the actual buttons on the PinButton Case. Most phones come with 3 buttons – 2 for volume control, and 1 for standby mode… but the PinButton Case gives your phone a total of 6 buttons. These three extra buttons sit on the left edge of the phone, relying on NFC technology to function. Working just like the Action Button does on the latest iPhones, these three buttons are programmed to trigger any app, tool, or routine you choose, giving you a whole host of possibilities. You can use the buttons to work smart home features, open the music app or your favorite playlist, activate Silent or Do Not Disturb, work as a camera shutter button, or even serve as a shortcut to your favorite app like Maps, TikTok, or WhatsApp.
These ‘PinButtons’ can be customized right in the S24 Ultra’s Settings app. Set up an NFC shortcut or routine, and then press any of the PinButtons to assign the shortcut to that button. Setting up all the buttons takes under a minute, but saves so much time by eliminating the need to minimize apps, scroll through app trays, or switch between two active apps. In fact, the PinButtons even work faster than the iPhone’s own Action Button, which needs to be long-pressed to work.
Most people slap a case on their phone just as a protective measure… but the concept of adding a case that brings extra features to your phone just feels low-key incredible. More so, PITAKA’s had a long history building cutting-edge cases, so the PinButton Case is no different, providing stellar physical protection to your smartphone from drops, bumps, scratches, or any impact-based damage. Subtle lips on your screen as well as camera lenses give them a layer of added protection, and that gorgeous woven Aramid fiber back looks positively luxurious, while bringing space-grade durability to your device. An inclusion of a super-slim magnet array within the case means your Galaxy S24 Ultra can be used in tandem with all of Pitaka’s MagEZ accessories (as well as other MagSafe-compatible products), whether it’s a power bank, a wallet, or a car mount. If you do attach your phone to a car mount frequently, we recommend assigning one of the PinButtons to either Maps or Waze for quick access, with the other linked to Spotify for your favorite car playlist. The third one’s up to you, although if you really want to piss off Apple-lovers, turn it into a camera shutter so when the iPhone 16 with the Capture Button drops, you can say – Android (or PITAKA) did it first!
