Neo smartpen N2
The most extravagant (yet highly useful) item on our list is the Neo smartpen N2. It looks like an ordinary pen, but the $169 N2 works with special notebooks and the iOS or Android Notes app to capture digital copies of whatever you write or draw. The app lets you organize your notes into multiple notebooks, and it can even convert your handwriting into plain text, making the notes searchable. Saving your notes to your computer lets you work with them offline and without your mobile device.
You can automatically sync your notes with Evernote or share them via social media, and you can send an email just by drawing a checkmark on the paper symbol in the notebook. The only real downside is the need to buy the special notebooks, which can run $20 for five spiral-bound ones to $20 for a single hardcover notebook.
