REVIEW – The iPad, introduced in 2010, changed the idea of “tablet computing” for many people.

REVIEW – Ever since the Apple AirPods Pro earphones came out, I kinda feel sorry for other wireless earbud makers. No matter how good their earbuds may be—and many are great—none can equal Apple’s Spatial Audio. Spatial Audio is an incredible 3D audio addition to an already good-sounding earphone. Once you hear it, there’s no
REVIEW – When I demonstrated the Cyansky M3 EDC Titanium flashlight to my wife, who is not easily impressed with my gadgets, she was very surprised by the maximum brightness this little light produced.

I go through several of my favorite Leuchtturm1917 notebooks each year and even more Schmidt ink refills.

REVIEW: The ThruNite TH30 V2 LED headlamp is durable and versatile. It gave me more than enough light to mow safely in the dark. (Sometimes you just gotta.) It also has a ‘firefly’ mode that is .3, that’s ‘point 3’, lumens. That’s adequate light to rummage around a room with someone asleep in it and
