Aukey Aircore 2-in-1 wireless charger review

Aukey Aircore 8

REVIEW – A wireless charger might seem like a kind of an unnecessary gadget … I mean, a cable works and you already have one of those.  That’s what I kept telling myself, anyway.  Then I rolled my desk chair over my USB cable AGAIN.  It did not survive.  At that moment I decided that

AAir 10

REVIEW – I’ve been using air purifiers for the past 10 years or so and have found them to relieve or remove the symptoms of my mild allergies and helping me sleep in the process. I’ve also found that while usually well designed for function, their aesthetics tend to leave a lot to be desired.
