The Hottest New Tech of the Summer 2023

by Amber Mac on June 16, 2023

Whether you’re heading out on a road trip or sticking closer to home, we’ve got some of the hottest new tech of the summer for you right here. Check out the list below to help get the most out of the next few months thanks to robots, AI, games, photography, and more.

Install a Smart Lock to Protect Your Home

The Schlage Encode Plus™ Smart WiFi Deadbolt (iOS/Android compatible – and available at Home Depot Canada) is the easiest way to control access to your home whether you’re in town or on the road. Within the Schlage Home app, you can create up to 100 unique codes and set schedules for these codes, so you can always see who’s coming and going. And now thanks to Apple home keys, you can just tap to unlock Schlage Encode Plus deadbolt using your iPhone and Apple Watch for easy and secure access to your homes.

Ask a Robot to Clean Your House

This all-in-on TP-Link Tapo RV30 Plus Robot Vacuum & Mop can vacuum and mop your home (at the same time!) so you can spend more time enjoying beautiful summer days instead of being stuck inside.

In fact, within the Tapo app, you can schedule cleaning for a time that works best for you and tailor your cleaning plan with no-go zones or virtual walls. The auto-empty dustbin means that you don’t even have to worry about emptying your robot for up to 70 days.

Take Better Smartphone Travel Photos

The Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra has a 200MP camera lens, which means all your summer photo and video memories will look crystal clear. It’s like having a DSLR camera that fits in your pocket.

Thanks to the Galaxy S23 Ultra’s Nightography capabilities, all lighting is good lighting, so you can finally get those evening photos (including sunsets!) at the cottage or shoot memories at a nighttime outdoor concert. Quick Share makes transferring and sharing high-res photos, videos, and other files between Galaxy devices and non-Galaxy devices easy.

Get Gaming on Your Next Road Trip

The Legend of Zelda™: Tears of the Kingdom for the Nintendo Switch family of systems is the latest entry in the iconic Legend of Zelda franchise – and the hottest game of the summer (so take it with you wherever you go). As you move through the game, you have the freedom to create your own path and solve problems along the way in a stunning, expansive world. If your family members are fans of this game, and they probably are, check out the new Nintendo Switch – OLED Model – The Legend of Zelda™: Tears of the Kingdom Edition, which has a sleek design based on this hot new game.
