Arylic Audio A50+ Wireless Aptx HD Multiroom HiFI Amplifier review

Arylic Audio A50 2

REVIEW – A couple of months ago, I reviewed the Arylic S50 preamplifier and really liked it. When I tested it, I used a tube preamp to listen to it and to test its features. What is really great, is that Arylic has gracefully sent me the Arylic Audio A50+ Wireless Aptx HD Multiroom HiFi […]

ILIFE A11 LiDAR robot vacuum and mop review – Great vacuum, OK mop, horrible app

ilife robot vacuum 8

REVIEW – No one likes to vacuum.  At least, no one that I know.  And even fewer people like to mop their floors.  So wouldn’t it be great if there was a machine to handle those tasks for you? One that you can control from your phone? There is!  It’s the ILIFE A11 LiDAR robot

OMBAR Portable Photography Studio review – A light box by any other name

OMBAR 33

REVIEW – Who needs a light box? Product reviewers, marketers, crafters, online sellers, bakers, or anyone who wants to create professional looking photographs of items that’ll fit inside one of them. A light box provides even lighting with either no shadows or faint shadows, and no noticeable corners to distract from the object. I’ll refer

We’re looking at the Edifier WiFi Smart Speaker, which promises powerful sound with Bluetooth and WiFi connectivity. Does it rock? Does it whimper? To the review! What is

Distil Union MagLock (Folly style) sunglasses review – So light and so cool

Distil Union 2

REVIEW – Even though The Gadgeteer is a gadget site, we sometimes review things that may not be technically gadgets, but still think may be of interest to gadget lovers. Not only are the Distil Union MagLock (Folly style) sunglasses not a gadget, they can even make the use of certain gadgets harder to use.

twelvesouth hirise3 1

REVIEW – Every night before going to sleep, my wife recharges her iPhone and her Apple Watch.  She reaches over to her nightstand, finds the lightning cable and connects it to her phone, and then finds the magnetic charging cable and connects it to the watch.  It seems like there should be an easier way

coolife trailcam 8

REVIEW – There’s a small forested area on the edge of my town where I walk my dog every morning.  I often see deer and turkeys in the woods, but I’ve seen tracks of many other creatures, especially in the snow.  I always thought it would be fun to get some photos of these animals

obsbot tiny4kwebcam review 9

REVIEW – With more and more people working from home today, a good webcam is almost as important as your laptop and phone. The OBSBOT Tiny 4K webcam is loaded with features. It has auto-tracking/auto-framing, gesture controls, 4x digital zoom, and more. It sounded to me like the quintessential do-it-all webcam. So I decided to

Officelab iPad Pro 12.9 Bluetooth keyboard review – Think Apple Magic Keyboard wannabe

Officelab keyboard 15

REVIEW – When you think about it, every review seen on The Gadgeteer site was written on a keyboard. It’s one of those things no reader thinks about—but the writer sure does. Writing on a keyboard can be a worry-free practice or it can be one full of frustration. It depends on whether the keyboard
