Stanley just debuted 3 gorgeous new colors, and you can only buy them at Amazon
As the weather gets warmer, staying hydrated is more important than ever. Whether you're a city stroller or passenger princess, you should never leave home without making sure that something cold and refreshing is always at hand. That's where a reusable water bottle comes in. If yours is looking like it's seen better days, here's some news that will brighten your day — Stanley's just released three new limited-edition colors of its bestselling IceFlow Flip Straw water bottle — Watermelon, Poolside and Strawberry Cream — and they're all available at Amazon for $35.
Yahoo Home & Garden Editor Kristin Granero dubbed this design her "emotional support water bottle" last year, noting that it's leak-proof (with the straw folded down), comfortable to carry and low maintenance. As she put it: "I've tried my share of water bottles in my quest to find the best, with the Stanley IceFlow emerging as the one to beat. ... Sometimes it feels like it's become a veritable extension of me!"
One of the hallmarks of the IceFlow (and many Stanley products) is its double-wall insulated stainless steel construction, which keeps beverages cold (or hot) for a ridiculously long time. This shopper said they were still sipping ice cold H2O over 24 hours later.
There's no denying that $35 is a lot to spend on a water bottle. But plenty of shoppers — and one Yahoo tester — agree that Stanley products are worth the investment. And with a very thirsty summer in the offing, wouldn't you like to have an item this dependable and on trend in your backpack, in your car or attached to your hip with a carabiner clip? We thought to. So, go ahead and drink in these beauties, but don't wait too long — Stanley products definitely still sell out in the blink of an eye.

I Love This Portable 32-Inch Touchscreen TV and It's on Sale at Amazon Right Now
For a brand I had previously never heard about, Fiteye captivated me with its portable "TV" offering. The premise is similar to LG's StandbyME Rollable Smart Touch Screen but uses Android OS, offers longer battery life, a larger display and costs less with the current $193 discount in both the white and cream white models. You'll find it for $897 right now at Amazon. It's essentially a TV on wheels connected to a 15,000-mAh battery buried somewhere inside the base of its stand. However, I'd be hard-pressed to call this thing a TV; since it's touch screen, it's more like an oversized Android tablet on wheels. Somehow, since it arrived at my doorstep, it has followed me everywhere I go in the house. In fact, it's watching me type at this very moment. Now I can't imagine what life would be like if my giant Android tablet were to leave. It's become everything: a TV, a monitor, a signboard, a companion, a friend… I digress. What exactly is this TV for? A bit of everything, really. So far, I've used it to watch anime with my headphones connected, lounging on the couch while my partner uses the living room TV. I've used it as a monitor for my MacBook while working. I've rolled it up to my minibar and used it to look at cocktail recipes while mixing. I've used it as a recipe book, a kitchen chalkboard, an indoor news signboard, an outdoor TV and the list goes on and on. Dreamchild Obari/CNET It also has a front camera -- not a very powerful one but it could work in a pinch. You can set it up to do video calls with friends and family who don't care too much about video quality. It's also perfect for video calling in a games night, and we've used it as a Scrabble dictionary instead of people using different phones to check words. Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money. It's not particularly the best at all these things. For instance, there are many dedicated outdoor TVs and projectors with better sound, image quality and insulation but it's perfect at being a jack-of-all-trades, moving around the house to where it's needed the most. It cannot completely replace a tablet, a phone, a monitor or even a TV, though, and I won't recommend it as any one of these. But if you need an average extra screen for any reason or a smart display for your smart home -- this is the way to go. What are the specs? As a tablet, its performance is decent. It has an 8-core unspecified CPU that runs Android 12 OS compatible with many apps in the App Store, 128GB of built-in storage and 6GB of RAM. So far, I haven't noticed any lag in performance or video playback. Dreamchild Obari/CNET The 32-inch display has a surprisingly crisp high-contrast LCD panel, 60Hz refresh rate and 1920 x 1080 pixel resolution. With its ability to rotate and swivel, it's not hard to adjust it to a good viewing angle. It is lacking in the sound department, though. I've taken to pairing it with a portable Bluetooth speaker. Another thing that pleases me about this smart screen is its battery. Fiteye claims you can get up to 7 hours of usage time with it. I've left mine on for up to 48 hours, displaying my curated Flipboard widget at the lowest brightness. However, since the battery isn't integrated into the tablet, tracking battery health using the LED screen on the base's stand is a hassle since the numbers are inaccurate and the LED display tends to shut off when inactive.

This Philips Hue Accessory Is a Game Changer for Light Control
Philips Hue smart lights consistently rank well on CNET's list of the best smart lights out there. As someone who has collected these over the years, I love how efficient they are, but controlling them typically means I need to reach for my smartphone or bark a voice command into a smart speaker, smart display or my smartwatch. While these options are great, having so many ways to control my lights has made my overall smart lighting experience feel like a bit of a mess. Luckily, I found the perfect accessory to control my lights that I can't live without now. I can find other brands of smart lights at much cheaper prices these days, but Philips Hue is perhaps the most well-known smart light brand, and offers a solid lineup of indoor and outdoor smart lighting. Whether I want my lighting tucked away or I'm looking for unique lights that are designed to be shown off, Hue's got them. It's not just about the bulbs. The Hue line also has a large assortment of accessories. To me, the best is the Philips Hue Tap Dial. Available in black or white and priced at $50, the Tap Dial is a small puck-shaped light controller with buttons you can press and a dial you can twist, giving it a "smart analog" vibe. It lets you easily control multiple smart lights at once without having to use voice control. Right now the white version bundled with a smart dimmer is discounted by 7% on Amazon, bringing the price down to $72. It's a very minor discount, yes, but it's rarely ever on sale. Plus, I'd recommend it to anyone with Hue lights, even when it's at full price. For more, don't miss our roundup of the best smart home deals overall. On the surface, the Tap Dial is a simple way to control your lights Spending $50 on a glorified light switch (or $72 on the bundle) may seem like a bit much, especially when you consider that it's nearly the same price as a single Philips Hue 75-watt White and Color Ambiance bulb. If you're like me and firmly steeped in the Hue ecosystem, you've likely already come to terms with the fact that it's an expensive ecosystem to be in. The customization options for this little guy will have tinkerers excited, and I believe it's definitely worth its price. The Dial looks like a hockey puck with four buttons on the face, with a rotating outer wheel to brighten or dim your lights. The four buttons each have little dots numbered 1 to 4, so you can feel which button you're pressing, even in the dark. It's fairly small and not a chore to bring it room to room if you so desire. You can place it on a wall inside of the included wall mount to use like a typical light switch. It's magnetic, so you can stick it on your fridge or some other metal surface. The customization options for the Tap Dial are extensive. Blake Stimac/CNET Under the hood, the Tap Dial is a dream for tinkerers You'd think that setup for this little device would be simple, with only a few options involved, but you'd be wrong. The settings for the Tap Dial can be a bit complex and can require some tinkering to get just right, especially if you have multiple scenes you want to go through. Either I completely missed the function in the app, or within the nearly two years I've had the dial, Philips resolved my main gripe. I'm not sure which is true, but my biggest annoyance was that I believed you could only use the Tap Dial for one room or "zone" in your home. While this may have always been how the device functioned, this has now been resolved (in my mind) and you can assign each button to a different room or zone. The twist-to-dim function can only be assigned to one room at a time, which makes sense. To set up, you'll head to the Hue app, then go to Settings > Accessories and select your Tap Dial. From there, you can assign functions to each of the buttons. First, you'll need to choose whether the button is going to control your lights or automation. If you choose the former, you'll need to choose the button behavior when you press it: Time-based light : Lighting based on the time of day or based on a customized timetable of your choosing. : Lighting based on the time of day or based on a customized timetable of your choosing. Scene cycle : Choose a primary scene that will always start upon a button press. Continue pressing to cycle through additional light scenes. : Choose a primary scene that will always start upon a button press. Continue pressing to cycle through additional light scenes. Single scene : Always only the same scene on button press. : Always only the same scene on button press. Lights off: Selected lights turn off when the button is pressed. By default, pressing and holding any of the buttons will turn off the lights assigned to it, but you can opt for turning all the lights off in your entire home or for it to do nothing. There's also an advanced "smart on/off" option, which I haven't dabbled with yet. After you've customized the buttons to your liking, your last stop is to choose what the twist dial does, or what else it does, other than brightening or dimming your lights. There are only two options here, and both are easy to tweak. The first is choosing if you want to be able to turn your lights off completely with the dial or have them go down to the minimum brightness only as you twist to dim them. The second gives you the option to set a specific scene that will turn on if you twist the dial when the lights are off. You can make your setup as simple or complex as you'd like, making the Tap Dial approachable for anyone. The Hue Tap Dial makes a great gift There's a good chance that someone isn't going to run out and drop a bunch of money on Hue lights after receiving this as a gift. The Tap Dial is easy to use, but the value it brings comes with the customization you can do with it. Still, you don't have to want to jump into all the settings to make the Dial worth it. As I said above, it's an approachable device for anyone since you can make it as simple or as complex as you'd like. Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money. If you know someone who already has a Hue setup in their home, this would be a great addition. Plus, if they love to dig into the settings or are self-described tinkerers, then this is definitely something worth considering. If you aren't sure if someone has Hue lights, then the Tap Dial would be an even better gift when paired with a new bulb.
