Smart home gadgets: levitating lamps, humidifier and more

These smart home gadgets add light, sound and atmosphere. Several of them double as decor, which makes them popular as tech gifts too.

Levitating Light Bulb Lamp with Wireless Charger

This levitating lamp uses patented anti-rotor magnetic levitation to make the bulb float above its base. The base also works as a wireless charger for phones that support wireless charging.

Its minimalist look suits a bedroom, desk or living room, and it combines decor, wellbeing and technology in one device. See it in our store
