Reviews about interesting gadgets, gear, mobile technology and lifestyle products.
REVIEW – I’m a dedicated Mac OS user and my primary computer is a late 2020 13-inch MacBook Pro which even after a couple of years, still has amazing battery life and power to tackle any task I throw at it. The one thing that isn’t so amazing about it is the lack of ports. […]

REVIEW – For me, movies are an escape from reality and I love the zip-zap, swashbuckling of action, sci-fi, and adventure films! Immersion is the key and a bright, clear image is crucial. JMGO’s new N1 Ultra 4K triple laser projector packs a seriously bright, vibrant image to enjoy the story as the director
REVIEW – I ordered my first Pitaka case for the iPhone X back in 2017. It’s been one of my go-to brands ever since and to date, each of my subsequent phones has donned some Pitaka case variation. Each generation has subtle improvements and more color options. I was already using the MagEZ Case Pro

REVIEW – I haven’t seen under cabinet TV’s since my childhood in the 80’s and 90’s, but in many homes this area is a perfect spot for a TV, and with the advent of the smart TV it may just be time for a revival. I’ve personally been using a smart display the last few
REVIEW – Wallet, Leatherman multi-tool, phone, and flashlight. I check my pockets for them every time I set foot out of my house. I’m a flashlight geek and over the years, I’ve learned that a good one is worth its weight in gold. Ok, not literally, but having one like the Vosteed Reylight Rook

REVIEW – Do you ever try a new product with low expectations, only to be surprised that it has a feature or characteristic that you now can’t live without? This was the case with the Vari Curve Electric Standing Desk: I expected a minor upgrade over my previous $200 standing desk, and ended up realizing

REVIEW – Summer is almost here, which means it’s time to break out the inflatable paddleboards, inflatable kayaks, air mattresses for camping, and all those inflatable beach and pool toys! Like most parents, I’ve had my share of lightheadedness at the pool after blowing up dragons, mermaids, and donuts. And I’ve spent what seems like

REVIEW – The hobbyist’s metal detector has to be one of the most unglamorous gadgets. Perhaps it is the notion that it usually finds discarded trash or loose change. Can I find more than just trash with the depth and alloy detection of a Skycruiser TX-910 metal detector? Read on to see what I think!

REVIEW – Whether you already own an EV or are considering one in the future, there’s more to it than just the car itself. Charging takes a little more planning and time than just hitting the gas station. The included charger is usually a low speed, lightweight 110v unit that can take up to a

REVIEW – There was a time not too long ago when all I was looking for as displays for my computers was large screens, and I mean as large as I could afford or get my hands on. For me, that was the “in” thing for that time for my photo and video editing and

REVIEW – When I began creating regular Gadgeteer Video Podcasts on my YouTube channel, I only used my iPhone 13 Pro Max for capturing the video and audio. From the first episode, I was disappointed in the crappy audio captured from my iPhone and started looking into using a separate microphone. Audio improved with a

REVIEW – Front pocket wallets are a great way to lighten the EDC load, and an all-metal wallet has inherent security benefits. GeoGrit is a newcomer to the scene and its wallet offers a helpful twist on a tried and true format. What is it? The GeoGrit wallet is a front pocket, RFID blocking, minimalist

REVIEW – Have you ever had to run an HDMI signal more than 25 feet? You can buy longer cables but they either get very expensive or don’t work very well. Plus your source device might not like pushing the signal that far. One way to get around the issues with a long HDMI
REVIEW – I’ve been a fan of Antlion Audio since their first Modmic. I’ve had a few over the years and currently have the Modmic USB which is a few years old now but still works great. So, when I heard they not only had a mic for IEMs but also their own line of

REVIEW – In case you haven’t noticed in the 25+ years that I’ve been posting reviews on The Gadgeteer, I’m female 😉 and that means that I don’t really like to walk around with a huge knife on my belt (I don’t even wear belts) or in my pocket. But, I like to have a

REVIEW – I am a big fan of portable chargers of all shapes and sizes. I don’t think you can have too many, so I have a lot. Everywhere. My office. My car. In just about every room of my house. I have had numerous gadgets over the years that have had wireless charging capabilities, and

REVIEW – I love zooming around on a bike. However, I need to be more in shape, and a few hills around where I live can make an otherwise enjoyable ride a bit of a chore. Along came the HOVSCO HovRanger Electric Bike, and I’m back in business! What is it? The HOVSCO HovRanger Electric

REVIEW – My son and co-reviewer, Mason, is on a smoothie kick. I hate to discourage this healthy habit, but our old blender is loud enough to wake the dead (or at least his little brother). When I saw this opportunity to review The BlendJet 2 “next-gen blender” that’s lightweight, cordless, and came with both
