The iPhone vs. Android argument is beyond boring at this point, but there is one cool feature that most flagship Android handsets have that is notably absent from Apple’s iPhone lineup: an infrared blaster. The Blumoo is a great little gadget that connects to your iPhone (or iPad, or Android phone, or Android tablet) via Bluetooth and then controls everything in your home that can be controlled by any standard universal remote. And best of all, it’s just $96.54 on Amazon, which is 26% off the device’s $129.99 retail price.
