Best Tech Gadgets to have at Harding (2021)
When people think of gadgets people often think of useless items that take up space and waste your time. However, there are actually many tech related gadgets that can benefit your time in the dorm at Harding. Here is a list that I have compiled of my favorite tech gadgets for your dorm
1.) Roku Express 4k+
OK, you don't necessarily need to get the 4k+, but the picture quality will be amazing if you have a 4k TV. To me, a Roku is a must have at Harding because of it ability to have Philo Edu. You can watch live tv through the device and DormNet can come to your dorm and help set it up for you! Along with that, the Roku has every streaming service including Netflix, Hulu, HBO Max, Disney+, and more (as long as you have a subscription to each service).
2.) Amazon Echo Dot (with clock)
I have an echo and it has revolutionized my life in the dorm. It is my alarm clock, and music player, and weather report, and light switch, and more. Alexa has so many different functionalities that just make it easier on yourself. Alexa helps me to stay off my phone as well because of its built in capabilities.
3.) Apple AirPods Pro
The AirPods seamless integration with iPhones is what truly sets it apart from every other wireless earbud. Once you put them in your ear they automatically connect to your phone, which makes walking from class to class much more bearable in the winter. Plus, the noise cancelling feature is phenomenal.
4.) Steamfast Garment Steamer
Let's face it, most your clothes are wrinkly. And you don't really know how to iron clothes. A handheld steamer will change your life. These are super easy to use, and it starts steaming in just a couple minutes. This will have your clothes looking great.
5.) WD My Passport Portable Hard Drive
I am about to invest in one of these myself. With all the cloud storage being pushed and implemented more and more it oftentimes gets very frustrating to navigate your files (Especially with OneDrive). A portable drive will help solve these problems. This one comes in 1 TB and 5 TB versions in a variety of colors and is very secure with encryption to keep your files safe.
