Baseus R02 Type-C Smartphone IR Remote Controller

Kicking things off is the

Baseus R02 Smartphone IR Remote Controller (definitely a mouthful to read out). It’s basically a remote controller that uses infrared beams to control appliances in your house/office. Remember when certain flagship smartphones came with an IR Blaster that you could use to control TVs and Air Conditioning units? Well, the Baseus R02 gives that functionality for any smartphone (with a Type-C port, that is). Your phone doesn’t have an IR Blaster? Don’t fret, fam. We got you covered.(Image Credits: Baseus)

All you need to do is to plug the device into your smartphone’s USB Type-C port and download the app (in this case Zaza

Remote). Once the app is installed, simply launch it and follow the on- screen guide and aim the device at an appliance that you wish to control. That’s all there is to it. This is especially handy if you tend to misplace your A/C or TV remote. You can even use it to pull a prank on someone by controlling their TV. Either way, this is a really cool and handy gadget to have. If you feel like you’d misplace that too, it comes with the ability to be attached to a keyring or key chain. This way you can have it with you at all times and not worry about leaving it somewhere.
