They offer up to 120 hours of playtime with their included charging case, which actually doubles as a power bank — use it to juice up your smartphone or tablet via USB. Apple AirPods can't even do that.

"Wow! The engineer that designed this thing ought to get a medal," raved a five-star reviewer. "I just used it for the first time, so an update may be necessary, but it feels almost exactly like someone is giving you a good, deep massage; not so hard that it's painful, but strong enough where it really relaxes the muscles. One of the best things is it automatically switches after a couple of minutes to a different motion, so it's like a masseuse who knows what they're doing. Seems very well made, highly recommended."

Slow internet? Reach for the Rockspace Wi-Fi Range Extender — on sale for $58, down from $110. It extends your home’s Wi-Fi network to even the darkest nooks and gnarliest crannies. It'll cover an additional 1,300 square feet, delivering up to 2100Mbps of internet speed (over 2GB — that's fast).

"I work from home and even have a separate office building to work from. Problem is, the house was built before the office, and the internet was installed at the very front of the other building, some hundreds of feet away," shared a five-star Amazon reviewer. "We have tried everything to get reliable internet to my office — we have gone through a bunch of range extenders, new routers and modems, the nicest the internet company will let us get. This is the only range extender that has worked. I was suspicious of one that plugged directly into the wall since our last one that usually worked okay was the full size of a router, but this handles it and I've not had an internet issue since installing it."
