Stay productive in winter.

Stay productive in winter.

Winter has caused office productivity to take a hit, but perhaps these tech gadgets can help.

The modern office can leverage technology to increase productivity and minimize distractions, from cutting-edge devices that seamlessly blend analog and digital note-taking methods to ergonomic accessories that enhance comfort and help you focus.

In this press release, we’ve picked out eight incredibly practical tech gadgets that we think can boost productivity in the office.

If you’re used to using a second screen, working without one is incredibly frustrating. Especially if you’re a hybrid worker or have to travel for work. A portable monitor can help solve this problem.

A portable monitor enables better multitasking by making it easier to have multiple windows/apps open at the same time – no matter where you decide to work. This increases efficiency when juggling different tasks or referring to multiple documents.

The Arzopa Full HD 1080P Portable Monitor is a fantastic option. It weighs just 920g and is only 9.3mm thick, making it easy to carry. This monitor supports multiple devices and has two USB ports and a mini-HDMI port.

If cables and chargers are causing a messy and tangled mess on your desk, you need a cable organizer. It can help keep your cables neatly bundled and organized, reduce safety risks, and save you time and frustration.

Orico Cable Clip 5 Slot is so affordable and practical that you can have more than one on your desk and have several for use at home. It can hold five cables, each up to 5 mm in diameter. Its adhesive coating and flexible silicone material make it easy to install and adapt to various cable arrangements.

Do you enjoy taking notes by hand? We do too, but keeping notes together or finding a specific line in a pile of notes can sometimes be a pain. Plus, it’s not very “green.” But what if you could combine the fun of taking notes by hand with the accessibility of the digital world?

A digital notebook like the Rocketbook Smart Reusable Notebook can be a great way to improve organization and collaboration in the office.

It’s a reusable, eco-friendly notebook that combines the classic pen-and-paper experience with modern digital capabilities. Its scan-and-erase feature provides an infinitely reusable canvas, while the Rocketbook app ensures your notes are digitized, searchable, and accessible from anywhere.

4. Noise-canceling headphones

The office can be a noisy and distracting place. Noise-cancelling headphones can help block out these sounds, allowing you to stay focused on your work without interruption. When taking calls or participating in virtual meetings, noise-cancelling headphones prevent your voice from becoming a distraction in the office. Additionally, the improved sound clarity and noise isolation provided by these headphones can help you focus better on cognitive tasks.

We think the Skullcandy Hesh ANC Noise Cancelling Wireless Over-Ear Headphones are some of the best. The Hesh ANC focuses on wireless simplicity, packing top-quality noise cancellation, long battery life, convenient controls, and portability into an affordable price.

5. Temperature controlled cup

A cold cup of tea really can’t be anyone’s cup of tea (pun intended), right? Especially in the winter. Imagine a warm beverage that stays warm until the last satisfying sip? Temperature-controlled mugs not only eliminate the need to frequently reheat or re-heat your beverages, but they also allow you to focus on your work without interruption.

We love the Lucky Ceramic Mug Set with its Smart Warming Plate, which constantly keeps drinks at an optimal temperature of 55°C. An automatic gravity sensor turns the warming plate on when the mug is placed on it and off when it is removed.

What’s the charging situation like at your desk? If you’re constantly charging your devices, a charging pad like the Moov 3-in-1 Foldable Wireless Charger can be a brilliant solution to your Apple device woes. It can save you time and hassle by charging multiple devices at once. It also lets you view your iPhone hands-free while charging, making it easier to multitask or refer to information during calls or meetings.

Additionally, the compact, lightweight and foldable design makes the device extremely portable.

If you spend a lot of time using a mouse, an ergonomic mouse is a good idea. It will help you stay comfortable, reduce the risk of strain, and increase your productivity and well-being in the workplace.

Logitech Lift is ideal because its vertical design and contoured shape promote a natural forearm and wrist posture, minimizing awkward bending and muscle strain. The textured grip and thumb rest allow the hand to rest in a relaxed position, reducing fatigue and discomfort, while the vertical angle promotes better arm, wrist, and shoulder alignment.

Are you struggling with proper time management? Putting your phone on airplane mode and putting on headphones can help, but sometimes you need more. For time-sensitive tasks, a time management tool can work wonders. By setting specific blocks of time, you can prioritize important tasks and avoid procrastination. Time management tools also promote better organization and efficiency by allowing you to plan your day effectively.

A great option is a 60-minute visual countdown timer; simply adjust the time by turning the knob clockwise. To turn it off, turn it back to zero. It’s that simple.
