thinksound ov21 15

REVIEW – Have you ever been curious about “audiophile” headphones and what justifies their ~$1000 price tags? I know I have, but until now I’ve never had the spare cash or opportunity to use cans of that caliber. Thinksound has sent over their new OV21 headphones that they’re advertising as “giant-killers” at less than half […]

REVIEW – Like many of you, I’ve been suffering with the scourge of using the built-in speakers on a television in my house. Nearly all televisions have garbage speakers that are either tinny or too quiet or both. Many built-in TV speakers are also downward- or backward- firing so that the sound that’s getting to

REVIEW – Most of you are probably familiar with “gaming chairs” or “racing chairs”, given their massive popularity in recent times. You can’t watch a streaming gamer without seeing an eye-catching chair at some point, but in my experience looks don’t always equal comfort. I’ve tried so many different office chairs over the years that

satechi hybrid 11

REVIEW – If you’re anything like me, you always want/need more storage on your device. Certain fruit-themed brands charge a massive premium for larger storage options so many of us end up with very limited hard drives on our computers or tablets. Satechi has previously helped with that gap by providing external USB-C SSD (solid

REVIEW – I’ve been on the hunt for a good travel bag for my DJI Mini 2 drone for a while now, as the bundled bag I received with the drone offers almost no protection to the drone itself. When the opportunity arose to review the Hex Ranger Blackout Camo camera mini-sling, I was very

REVIEW – I’ve reviewed a couple of robot vacuums in the past that include a wet/mop function, but neither of them did much in terms of mopping. As a result, my back still hurts after every manual mopping session. I was excited to review the Dreame H11 Max Wet and Dry vacuum and hoped that

REVIEW – Smartphone cameras have become phenomenally good in the last few years, but no amount of optical image stabilization or digital trickery can match a good gimbal (yet). So is the Hohem iSteady V2 gimbal a good gimbal? I took it through it’s paces and will now break it down in review format, as

REVIEW – I’ve used quite a few tents in my days, from tiny to huge and cheap to mid-range/name brand. In fact, some of my earliest memories of camping are of my father connecting separated pole segments for a big canvas tent that was leaky and heavy and took nearly an hour to set up

REVIEW – In a world where electric scooters are on nearly every street corner, it takes something special to stand out. Ninebot is a scooter brand that’s been around for some time now, and they make many of the kick-scooter style electric scooters you see for rent in urban areas. Segway has been around longer,

REVIEW – I’ve been using tablets for a decade now, starting with the Motorola Xoom in 2011 (oof!), and continuing with a bevy of iPad and Android tablets through the years. It’s crazy to me that 10 years later, the dynamic still hasn’t changed much: for the best experience you should go with an iPad,

REVIEW – As I prepare to enter my middle-age years, I have done a lot of reflecting lately. One of the trends I have noticed the older I get is to gravitate towards paying more for quality rather than always buying the cheapest functional version of something I need. Case-in-point: I probably used and wore

REVIEW – There are so many headset models on the market today that it can be daunting to research and find the perfect one. You could spend hours reading reviews and comparing spec sheets and only be able to cover a fraction of the models available. For me, it takes either an exceptional performance-to-price package

REVIEW – Most of us have spent our entire lives using gasoline or corded electric lawn tools. I had infamously bad gas lawnmowers when I was a kid, where you had to yank the starter cord 10 or more times with all your kid-strength to get it going, then you had the hassle of mixing
