Tablift hands-free tablet stand review
I constantly struggle with the tablet vs. laptop decision. Laptops are great, but tablets are lighter. But tablets don’t exactly do the hands-free or lap TOP bit very well unless you have some fancy case or stand. Today let’s take a look at the uniquely-shaped Tablift.
I-MEGO Maze headphones review
Listening to music is big business. And judging by the amount of advertising I see, you need the proper listening devices, with the right amount of flash and style to be able to get the best out of your listening experience. At least that’s what the high-end headphone market want you to believe. Enter theRead More…
Kenu Airframe+ portable car mount review
Back in March I reviewed the Kenu Airframe portable car mount. To say I love the device is probably an understatement. It goes with me everywhere. Everyone I have shown it to has envied it. And I have to keep a close watch on my wife for fear that she will steal it. So whenRead More…
Wicked Lasers Flashtorch flashlight review
A couple of years ago (2012) I reviewed the Wicked Lasers Torch (see Other Articles to Read at end of post), touted at the time as “the most powerful handheld flashlight in the World”, and at a whopping 4100 lumens, it was wickedly bright, extremely hot, but sadly very utilitarian looking. The designers at Wicked Lasers have recently introducedRead More…
Fold & Go tablet stand and Smartphone Lounger stand review
There are many types of stands for tablets. Some are a single angle, built for either reading and movies, or for typing and heads-down work. Others (such as those from Apple and the kickstands on Microsoft’s Surface) mandate that you cannot change the orientation – it’s horizontal (usually), and that cannot be changed. ButRead More…
Microsoft All-in-One Media Keyboard review
I decided that I would write this review with the product I’m reviewing, the Microsoft All-in-One Media keyboard, and I’ll tell you right from the start that it is likely the last thing that I’ll type with this keyboard. After several weeks of cramped typing at my desk, I’m really looking forward to getting backRead More…
Zetta Z16 HD Wide Angle Intelligent Security Camcorder review
We live in a gated community and just a few years ago, things were stolen out of our car while it was parked in our driveway in broad daylight (we had forgotten to lock it that day). We never found out who had perpetrated the crime, but I remember wishing I had some kind ofRead More…
Eton Blackout Buddy emergency lighting and LED flashlight review
We live in a high-rise condo building, and the main hallways and stairways are all interior and windowless. The building does have emergency lighting, as we found out during a recent power outage, but those are only in the public areas of the building. Most of the rooms in our condo have floor-to-ceiling windows, soRead More…
IK Multimedia iRing motion music controller review
I don’t consider myself a musician even though I can play a few instruments (barely). However I do consider myself a musical hobbyist because I enjoy doodling around with the ukulele and music apps on my iOS and Android tablets. When the people at IK Multimedia contacted me to ask if I might like toRead More…
Henge Docks Vertical Docking Station for MacBook Pro review
When I decided a few years ago that it was time to ditch my 27″ iMac and down size to a 13″ Macbook Pro, it took a little while to get used to the loss of screen space. However, what I lost in screen space, I gained portability, so the switch was worth it. I’d been happily workingRead More…
FIREase IncinerGrate review
We are fortunate to have access to a summer cabin on a lake and near the woods. Every summer family members descend upon the “camp” and enjoy swimming, sailing, fishing and most importantly for the kids, roasting marshmallows over an open fire. Because of this, the adults have become somewhat proficient in starting a campfire,Read More…
VOXOA HD Wireless Headphones review
I’m not normally a fan of over the ear style headphones because they feel a little too isolating and usually aren’t that comfortable to me. When the VOXOA HD Wireless Headphones were offered to me to review, my first thought was to offer them to Bill H. or the rest of the Gadgeteer team, butRead More…
Expert Shield Screen Protector review
I have a Fujifilm X-M1 camera that I purchased not too long ago. I thoroughly enjoy using this camera and intend to take good care of it. I had been thinking about purchasing a screen protector for the LCD screen to protect it from scratches, especially when I wear the camera around my neck andRead More…
Samson Meteorite USB microphone review
I enjoy my occasional Skype or Google hangout with friends, and have the idea to one day record some video tutorials. Instead of using the internal microphone of my iMac, I’ve wanted to try an external microphone. One look at this Samson Meteorite USB microphone and I couldn’t resist the chance to review it.Read More…
Bolse 5-port USB desktop charger review
Perhaps, like me, your bedside table has evolved over time into a charging station. I run down the batteries in my devices during the day, and the nightstand is the most convenient place to both recharge the devices while I sleep and keep them nearby for nighttime reading, email or phone calls. I haven’t adapted gracefullyRead More…
Kinivo BTC450 Bluetooth Car Kit review
A few weeks ago I posted an article about two of my Cummins co-workers who had integrated a Nexus 7 tablet into their vehicles. I was really impressed by their ingenuity and was inspired to inject a little more tech into my 2013 MINI Cooper. You’d probably think my car would have all the tech bellsRead More…
T-Mobile/Uncarrier 5.0 Test Drive review
Well, I did the deed… I signed up for T-Mobile’s new Test Drive program John Legere announced late last month. My hope was that their service really is a more cost-effective, viable option for our family. Verizon has been our cellular provider for nearly a decade. But their Cadillac service has always come at a premiumRead More…
Pressy programmable Android button review
I bet I’m not the only person who misses the good old days when phones (even smartphones) had a physical button for every task. There was a button to answer a call, a button to end a call and so on. Once touch screens became popular, smartphone manufacturers seemed to stop using buttons almost overnight.Read More…
Revolve+ Surge Protector with 4 Rotating Outlets + 2 USB review
Houses, even new ones, just don’t come with enough outlets. Our house was built only five years ago and we constantly need power strips to provide enough outlets to power all our various gadgets and appliances. I recently bought a surge protector that I thought had rotating outlets to accommodate the various sizes of AC adaptersRead More…
Urban Armor Gear iPhone 5S case review
Yes, I’m still looking for a smartphone case that’s “just right”. Lately I’ve been leaning towards rugged-looking cases. Today let’s look at the Urban Armor Gear case for the iPhone 5S.
PUC Wireless MIDI for iOS and Mac review
When the Camera Connection Kit first came out for the iPad, it immediately was exploited by musicians worldwide to use the iPad as a MIDI-connected device. The iPad suddenly became a must-have device for making music. Apps that mimicked classic synths like the Korg Electribe and MS-20 came out as well as production studio appsRead More…
MBI HF flashlight review
I would think it is fair to say that we have done our fair share of flashlight reviews at The Gadgeteer. We get them in all shapes and sizes, so for me to do a review on one it has to be unique or have an unexpected feature. The MBI HF from Match BoxRead More…
Lumsing Harmonica Style 10400mAh Rechargeable Portable External Battery Pack review
When you have a lot of mobile devices that you use constantly throughout your day, you’re eventually going to find yourself with a drained battery. If you are at home or in the office, you can plug up your device before it dies, but what if you aren’t near a power source? There are aRead More…
IDAPT Universal HUG Desk Holder for tablet review
The market is flooded with tablet holders. What works in one case may not work for another. And what if you change tablets from an iPad to an Android to something different? The IDAPT Universal HUG Desk Holder addresses all of that in a cleverly designed tablet stand.
TiMaG Titanium magnets review
My fascination and love of magnets goes way back. As a kid I used to dismantle the motors of small appliances and toys with the sole purpose of extracting the magnets. I don’t destroy things anymore to get magnets, but I still like them – a lot. I was very happy to accept the offer toRead More…
