I’ve loved Withings’ hybrid watches, which put all the health tech you need into an analog watch body, for more than a decade. The ScanWatch Nova crams the ScanWatch 2’s hardware into a diver’s watch body and looks far more luxurious than it actually costs. And, of course, it’s got all the fancy health and fitness equipment you might be interested in buying for a beloved adult. Buried inside that case is a built-in ECG, heart rate and oximeter, as well as a temperature sensor. You’ll get sleep monitoring, automatic activity tracking and access to the best in class Withings…

It’s hard not to feel jealous as, one by one, all my colleagues ditched their old cameras for Fujifilm bodies. The gorgeous retro styling, compact size and analog film simulations are all reasons to fall deeply in love with their models. Not to mention, when you’re toting around a decade-old Olympus to events, the ability to charge a camera via USB-C makes me delirious. Which is why I think it’s time to join the gang, and I’m hoping someone will bring me an X-T50 for the holidays. It’s the latest entrant in Fujifilm’s middle-tier range, with the high-end features I’m…

While it’s nice to have the versatility of a multi-fuel pizza oven, there’s no denying that a gas-powered setup is easier to use. It allows you to quickly adjust the heat while also being able to focus on making pizza, instead of also having to manage a fire. Solo Stove’s pizza ovens, including the Pi Prime, have a circular, “panoramic” opening that makes launching and rotating pies a simpler task than it is on other models. Plus, the whole thing is built out of stainless steel like the company’s fire pits, so it’s made to last. And like most outdoor…

It never hurts to have an extra bag with you whenever you go out. Whether you’re going to pick up groceries and know you’ll need one, or you’re heading out with friends and unexpectedly pick up a few things, a lightweight tote bag is crucial. There are thousands of options out there, but we included Peak Design’s Packable tote in our gift guide because it doesn’t have the typical reusable bag design and it remains fairly affordable at only $20. The bag is made of 100-percent recycled ripstop nylon, which is resilient and as well as water resistant, and it…

My husband and I love our cat very much, but boy, does her poop stink up the joint. After seeing an ad for Pretty Litter online, we decided to try it out to see if it would help us. Fortunately, it does, and more. Not only does it have super absorbent silicon crystals that trap odor, but it actually changes color to tell you if your cat has any urinary tract issues. Of course, this doesn’t replace going to the vet, but it’s nice to know what’s going on with your cat’s health. Since the litter is so efficient at…

Whether or not you’ve heard of a white elephant gift exchange before, there’s a good chance you have the wrong idea of what it is, how it actually works and where the idea came from. According to legend, the King of Siam would give a white elephant to courtiers who had upset them. It was a far more devious punishment than simply having them executed. The recipient had no choice but to simply thank the king for such an opulent gift, knowing that they likely could not afford the upkeep for such an animal. It would inevitably lead them to…
