REVIEW – I love to tinker. I love gadgets. And I love when those two worlds collide, resulting in something I made and is useful. The Raspberry Pi is one of those computing devices that – if you can define a use for it – is practical, easy to use, and brings satisfaction to even …
REVIEW – USB-C is a great specification, but in practice, it has been a slow, uphill battle to get peripherals that support it.

When it comes to travel, whoever said “half the fun is getting there” quite obviously did not have to pack his own bag. If you are anything like me – and I sense you are – you have a tendency to pack more than you need just in case you…well, need it. To compensate, you …
When you travel as much as I do, the ability to shut off the outside world and immerse yourself in music or a movie is not just important, it is a necessity. And when hear about a small, lightweight product which claims up to 60 hours of battery life, active noise cancelling, and all in …
I love tablets. Specifically, I love Android tablets. I’ve had most of the major devices since day one including the Motorola Xoom and the earliest Samsung tablet, the Galaxy Tab 8.9. The last one, well that was a brick – it was heavy, slow and would hurt you if you dropped it on an extremity. …

Unless you have been under a rock, you already know about Samsung’s entry into the Smart Assistant category with the odd name Bixby. If you have been under a rock, welcome back and we’ll wait while you catch up. Bixby launched on the new Samsung Galaxy S8 and S8 Plus phones back in April, but …
