Reviews about interesting gadgets, gear, mobile technology and lifestyle products.
REVIEW – In late 2020, I reviewed the Generark HomePower One, a beast of a portable solar generator at 1000 watt-hours strong. I also chided Generark, because the HomePower One is a clone of the Japanese version of the Jackery Explorer 1000. That’s not a slight, because, with its fold-down handle, the Japanese Jackery is […]
REVIEW – Tell me this doesn’t look like the long rumored/envisioned/just announced 14” MacBook Pro. The designers at Brydge have done it again…getting ever closer to transforming your overpowered iPad Pro into a touchscreen MacBook Pro. For years now, Brydge has been creating Bluetooth keyboard cases that add greater functionality to Apple’s flagship tablets. For

REVIEW – Cordless tools have come a long way in the last ten years. I’ve been using mine for quite a bit longer than that, and I’m looking to replace them. The Worx Nitro 20V Power Share Worxsaw review offer came along, so I thought it would be great to check out the Worx tools

REVIEW – I’ve been searching for the perfect headphones or earbuds. My overly-sensitive ears typically reject earbuds, although I’ve tested some “acceptable” ones. I had the opportunity to test something different – bone conduction headphones. I’ve never tried anything like this, so let’s give a listen and see if this is the holy grail of

REVIEW – Spending long hours in front of a computer, whether for business or pleasure, necessitates a really comfortable chair. Preferably, an ergonomic, sturdy chair designed to support over extended periods of time. A lot of gaming chairs achieve this but aren’t exactly what I’d call subtle, boasting huge ridiculous logos, bright garish colors, and

REVIEW – I’m sure on average you’ve owned several phone cases, but have likely never had one that will eat itself when you throw it away. But that’s exactly what the Pivet Aspect iPhone case is capable of. Check out this piece of scientific sorcery! What is it? The Pivet Aspect iPhone case is a

REVIEW – My long time wish of having one device that functions as my camera, my phone, and my computer was a dream for a very long time, but now it’s a reality with smartphones like the Samsung Galaxy line of phones that have Dex. Dex turns your smartphone into a desktop computing experience when

REVIEW – Bluetooth earbuds have become a normal part of daily life for many of us. Listening to music, podcasts, audio books, movies, and videos without disturbing the people around you, all without needing a cable is a massive convenience. So many companies are making this type of earbud so it’s hard to stand out

REVIEW – Over the past few years, I have been the victim of credit card fraud on multiple occasions, and thankfully the credit card companies and on one occasion Amazon prevented the fraud attempts from being successful. These days, keeping your personal information confidential requires the use of various tools. One such physical tool is

REVIEW – I can’t use a phone without a case. I’ve dropped phones too many times and since the early days of the smartphone revolution, I’ve used a case because I don’t want an expensive repair bill that could have been avoided. As phones have gotten bigger the problem has just been magnified. Grip2ü has
REVIEW – I have not ridden a bike in over 15 years. It is not because I do not enjoy riding it’s because I have poor circulation in my legs. This makes riding a bike a painful and less than enjoyable experience. A friend recently showed me an electric bike that he had been looking

REVIEW – If you’ve never used an immersion blender, you don’t know what you’re missing. Being able to blend up a smoothie in the glass, or pulverize potatoes right in the pot without dirtying up another bowl can be a time-saver. But, immersion blenders are kind of a one-trick pony. ChefWave thinks they should be

REVIEW – Bluetooth headphones are a dime a dozen these days. It seems like every brand you know of (including a shoe company), and many you’ve never heard of, is making one or more types of true wireless earbuds. With so many options out there how do you decide what’s best for you? It’s never
REVIEW – Perhaps the biggest problem facing people who use hammocks is finding the perfect set of two trees to hang your hammock. The Equip Single Point Hammock Stand claims to solve that problem. Well, I couldn’t just take their word for it, so I had to try it out! What is it? The Equip

REVIEW – The Soul Emotion Pro ANC earbuds – ‘Designed for calls. Made for music.’ That’s the marketing claim, but do these earbuds live up to it? One of our Gadgeteer reviewers is looking for the best earbuds the planet Earth has to offer. Could Garry’s search be over? I’ll describe where the Soul Emotion

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 been a multi-monitor user since the late 1990s. As a software developer, my workflow has always been working with many applications simultaneously while writing my code. To improve my portable workflow, I decided to try the Innocn PF15-PRO portable touchscreen monitor with my laptop. What is it? The Innocn PF15-PRO portable touchscreen

REVIEW – When the pandemic sent millions of workers from the company office to the home office, many of us realized that our work-from-home setup was less than ideal for productivity. Upgrading our desktop space became a priority, and one of the most important aspects of this is lighting. I’d had my eye out for

REVIEW – I have a cadre of portable backup drives that I use on a regular basis. Most of them are your standard sized backup drive about the size of a man’s regular sized wallet. In the past I have experienced computers that just died and I lost all the files on the harddrive. So
