Ember's new temperature-controlled mug improves tea ritual
Ember has released its third-generation temperature-controlled smart mug, designed to keep hot beverages at a consistent temperature for hours. The new device introduces long-awaited physical controls, allowing users to adjust heat settings directly on the mug without needing a smartphone. While the addition of on-mug buttons represents a major quality-of-life improvement for nightly routines, reviewers note that the placement on the bottom of the cup makes it slightly awkward to operate. Additional updates include a spill-resistant sliding lid and top-rack dishwasher safety.
