Reviews about interesting gadgets, gear, mobile technology and lifestyle products.
REVIEW – Living in NW Florida, we have plenty of warm weather throughout the year, which is perfect for spending time outside. Whether it’s going to the beach or just grilling out in the backyard, my family has their phones, Bluetooth speakers, handheld gaming devices, and even laptops with them. Needless to say, there’s always […]
REVIEW – I don’t camp as often as I used to, but I always have a use for a portable light I can bring somewhere, whether I’m repairing something or in case of a blackout. The OGERY Z10 is an interesting light that I “flipped” for. How? Let’s see. ⬇︎ Jump to summary (pros/cons) Price: $69.99 Where

REVIEW – Vosteed is back for another review! If you’re a long-time reader of The Gadgeteer, you’re probably already familiar with Vosteed, but if you’re new, Vosteed is a knife manufacturer that makes a variety of high quality blades in different styles. Today’s review is looking at the Kroc, a top-liner lock pocketknife with a

REVIEW – One of the things that I miss from my older Sony A6300 camera was the built-in pop-up flash. Yeah, it wasn’t powerful, but it gave me the option for some fill light on brighter days when my subject was backlit. I occasionally use the included flash on my Fuji camera, too. So I

REVIEW – For the past year, I have been sitting at my desk in my home office for 9 to 10 hours daily. This is mostly because I work from home while I recover from total knee replacement. I replaced my right knee in October 2024, and in about a week, Ocrobet 2025, I will

REVIEW – When it comes to fans, I definitely have an opinion. I have to sleep with one, I have one in my purse, one in the car, one at my parents house, one at my in-law’s place… I probably should say I have a problem, but they are just so useful for so many

REVIEW – Power Banks, portable chargers, portable batteries….they are so ubiquitous and similar in size, shape, and color…usually black. So when something comes along that looks different, it grabs our attention. So it is with the Sharge Retractable 3-in-1 Power Bank. But is it a case of form over function? ⬇︎ Jump to summary (pros/cons) Price: $44.90
SHARGE Retractable 3-in-1 Power Bank review – Retro style, modern performance! Read More
REVIEW – I can’t say why I have not jumped on board and gotten an EDC pouch up to this point. I have purchased them as gifts multiple times in the past for others, and every time I think how nice it would be to have one for myself. But, for some reason, I just
REVIEW – Several sources report that porch pirates stole at least 58 million packages last year, with a value of $12 billion, and one in four Americans has been a victim. I’m sad to say that even in my relatively docile neighborhood, I’ve been among them. If you’re just as concerned, SwitchBot’s Smart Video Doorbell

REVIEW – Imagine you have been going non-stop and finally arrive at your child’s concert. As you pull your phone out to record that look of joy on their face, the little red battery starts flashing to let you know your phone is almost dead. The INIU pocket size charger comes with a cable that

REVIEW – Let’s face it. Refrigerator ice is gross. The ice is huge, and at least with our refrigerator, using the ice crusher is extremely loud. Enter the Vividmoo Countertop Nugget Ice Maker. This countertop ice-making machine has taken over the job of making ice for our drinks. Fill it up, and in just a

REVIEW – I first learned about Ultimea when I reviewed their Nova S80 Dolby Atmos soundbar, which I found to be a solid product at a reasonable price. Therefore, when I had the opportunity to review their new flagship soundbar, the Skywave X70, I couldn’t resist. The X70 appeared to be a significant upgrade from
REVIEW – Looking to ditch those discount-store khakis or those chinos you’ve been wearing since the 90s? Look no further. Built from stretchy, comfortable, lightweight technical fabric and loaded with handy features, The TEREN Daily Driver Pants might help you level up your pants game. Let’s check them out. ⬇︎ Jump to summary (pros/cons) Price: $119.95 Where

REVIEW – The Mac Mini M4 was announced last year to much deserved fanfare. Gone was the ill-fitting housing for the M1 and M2 Apple Silicon chips, and instead, the redesign made the Mini worthy of its name. For me, I need an SD card reader, and up until now, I have made use of
Beeline Mate Mini Dock for Mac Mini M4 review – A perfect match! Read More
REVIEW – I seem to keep adding more stuff on the crafting table (thank you, Ikea!) that I have set up in my office. I have a very nice floor lamp that I reviewed from Honeywell that I used to light up my desk, and it worked great. After acquiring the WeCreate Vision Pro laser engraver,

REVIEW – There are a lot of things that I need a timer for. Most of the time, I just yell at a smart device or use my phone. There are plenty of times though that I will say that I am setting a timer, but completely forget. This happens most often with my kids…

REVIEW – Always wanting to help us protect the Naked Robotic Core™ of our phones, case makers have embraced Aramid fiber as a material lately. Today’s model is from Pitaka, who make a lot of unique products for mobile computing. (I’ve had their carbon-fiber iPad mini case on my unit for years now and love

REVIEW – I love bags. If I’m ever endlessly scrolling on YouTube (that is my one social media vice), I can’t help but stop if I see a unique or fun bag. I want to be the kind of person that has that one bag they love and sticks with it for longer than you can
REVIEW – Let’s be honest, earphones (earbuds) and headphones have gotten really good over the past few years, to the point that choice is more based on design and comfort rather than audio quality. It’s now hard to find a bad-sounding pair of earbuds in the $100+ price range. Recently, Soundpeats sent me the new

REVIEW – Today’s review is a bit different than others I’ve done in the past as it’s a review of an app! I’ll call it a digital gadget for review’s sake today. Popsa, an AI-driven photo curation platform, is an application designed to help you build and print photo books of whatever memories you want
