You’ve probably held a warm beer or soda in your hand and wished that it would instantly cool so you could enjoy it. Well, it looks like someone over at Matrix, the makers of highly advanced coolers, had the same problem because they have just announced its latest product, Juno, which can cool any drink, from wine to soda to champagne in minutes.

How does it work? The device incorporates a cutting edge thermoelectric cooling (TEC) engine with a proprietary mixing mechanism in a liquid bath. There’s no chemicals or environmentally harmful refrigerants involved, so you get a cold drink worry-free.

The Juno cooler was selected by our editors as the best product in the Home Appliance category at CES 2020. Check out more of our Top Tech of CES Award winners.

“In the past, the Matrix team was focused on capturing waste heat to harvest usable energy in devices like PowerWatch, but with Juno, we’ve leveraged our thermoelectric engineering expertise and proprietary technology to create a TEC engine that removes heat in the fastest way possible,” Matrix co-founder and CTO Douglas Tham said in a statement.

Just how fast can you get to drinking your favorite beverage? The Matrix Juno can chill a 12-ounce can of beer from room temperature (72 degrees Fahrenheit /22 degrees Celsius) to its optimal temperature (39 degrees F/4 degrees C) in two minutes. It can cool a 750ml bottle of wine from room temperature to 49 degrees F/9 degrees C in five minutes, according to Juno. The cooler can be used with a wide range of cans and bottles, too. It works with bottles or cans up to 3.5 inches in diameter and 12.5 inches in height, so even a bottle of champagne will fit.

“Like our TEG modules, it wasn’t enough to build the TEC,” Matrix co-founder and CEO Akram Bouka said. “We wanted to create a practical use case for it that anyone could benefit from. Juno is the ultimate consumer demonstration of how our cooling technology can radically alter the way we manipulate temperatures. But the applications are endless and we’re so excited for the future partnerships and use cases of Matrix thermoelectric cooling technology.”

Juno is available for pre-order and is expected to ship in the summer of 2020. If you want a sneak peek, you can see it in action at CES Unveiled and Pepcom Digital Experience during CES 2020.

YEEDI S20 Infinity Ultra: redefining what robot vacuums should actually clean
The real problem with robot vacuums is not navigation anymore
Electronics, Speaker

YEEDI S20 Infinity Ultra enters a category that has already refined navigation, mapping, and basic automation to a point where daily dust cleaning is predictable and reliable. The expectation from a robot vacuum today is no longer about whether it can move efficiently through a home, but whether it can handle the kind of mess that defines real, everyday use. Floors accumulate dried spills, sticky residue, and layered grime that cannot be removed through suction or light mopping alone, and these conditions continue to expose a limitation that has persisted across the category. Users still find themselves stepping in before or after a cleaning cycle, either by manually scrubbing problem areas or by running multiple passes to reach an acceptable result, which defeats the purpose of automation in the first place.

This is the gap YEEDI S20 Infinity Ultra is designed to address, approaching robotic cleaning through stain treatment and surface recovery rather than simply increasing suction or expanding coverage. The product’s focus on solving persistent real-world cleaning limitations has also earned it the Digital Spotlight Award, reinforcing its positioning within a category that is increasingly shifting towards more intelligent and outcome-driven automation.

Narwal Freo Z10 Turbo Delivers Flagship Features Without the Flagship Price
Experience 25,000 Pa suction and pro-level carpet care with $300 off
Home Decor, Adult, Female

Robot vacuums have reached a point where expectations are no longer limited to basic cleaning. Users now expect strong suction, reliable carpet performance, and minimal maintenance, but getting all of that typically means stepping into premium pricing. The Narwal Freo Z10 Turbo is built to challenge that trade-off by bringing flagship-level cleaning technologies into a more accessible category without compromising on real-world performance.

As Narwal’s first major mid-range release of 2026, the Freo Z10 Turbo is positioned to bridge the gap between affordability and high-end capability. Priced $599 after a $300 launch discount, it combines 25,000 Pa suction, CarpetFocus technology, and DualFlow Tangle-Free System into a single platform designed to handle mixed surfaces, pet hair, and everyday mess without requiring constant intervention.

The iGarden Pool Cleaner M1-AI Series Is Making Modern Outdoor Living Effortlessly Luxurious
To reclaim what pool ownership is meant to feel like
Grass, Plant, Lawn

Owning a pool often means enjoying backyard get-togethers, relaxing weekends, and the simple pleasure of a swim on a hot day. But in reality, it also comes with a fair amount of upkeep. In my experience, keeping a pool clean can quickly turn what should feel like downtime into another ongoing chore.

That’s where the shift in smart home technology becomes interesting. As it extends beyond living rooms and kitchens into outdoor spaces, a new generation of AI-powered systems is changing how pool care is managed — moving it from manual effort to real-time, automated operation. The iGarden Pool Cleaner M1-AI Series reflects this transition toward smarter outdoor living, combining adaptive cleaning and advanced vision into a low-intervention system designed around everyday convenience.
