Kovol Sprint 4-Port PD laptop charger review

Kovol KV PC001 4

REVIEW – As more and more devices switch over to Type-C (USB-C) charging ports, the need for multi-port high wattage chargers have become more significant. Laptops, battery banks, flashlights, and wireless microphones are just some of the Type-C devices that I often find myself charging quite often. I decided to see if the KOVOL Sprint […]

AfterShokz Aeropex Open-Ear Endurance Headphones review

Aftershokz 3

REVIEW – If my memory serves me correctly, several years ago I purchased Bone Conduction headphones from AfterShokz. I loved their design and function but I also remember them being a bit hard and rigid and that they would hurt in places around my head after wearing them for a while. I also remember parting

Unitek 18

                   REVIEW – USB was introduced in 1996 and has since taken over the world. Very few portable electronics are not equipped with a USB charging port. But how to keep them all charged? Unitek’s 10-port USB charging station to the rescue! What is it? The Unitek model Y-2190F is an AC-powered, charging station with

ZEEKER P10 smartphone review – A big battery with a smartphone built in

ZEEKER P10 21

REVIEW: At 11.4 ounces the Zeeker P10 is a hefty cell phone. It’s heavy duty. Emphasis on heavy. It has a 6000 mAh battery so it would be. It is also submersible. No, it takes underwater pictures. Continue conversations in the bath, anyone? Could the Zeeker P10 be your everyday smartphone with specs like this?

Catalyst Vibe iPhone 13 Pro case review – A compelling case for trying something new

CVIB 12

REVIEW – When you kick down for a new phone it can be mighty tempting just to get the new version of whatever case you were running before. That’s all well and good, but you might be missing out by not trying something new. I’ve been on the yearly upgrade cycle for a while now

360 S8 robot vacuum and mop review – It literally says, “Cleaning makes me happy!”

360 S8 09

REVIEW – I try my best to keep a clean home, which is sometimes a losing battle with a house rabbit and cat and their constant shedding. I’ve found that automation is a practical way to keep ahead of the hair and have used several different vacuuming robots over the years. I wanted to have
