REVIEW – When it comes to gaming, I’m old school. I prefer a physical controller vs. onscreen touch controls. The GameSir X2 Bluetooth is a gaming controller that has been designed especially for smartphones and it effectively turns your smartphone into a gaming console in a form factor like a Nintendo Switch. Let’s take a

REVIEW – If you haven’t used a MagSafe charger yet, it’s hard to describe how satisfying that magnetic snap-into-place function is. The magnetic attraction is strong enough that if you were to quickly grab your phone and start to walk away, the puck stays attached and you could knock over some stuff on your desk.

REVIEW – Golf. It’s a beautiful, but frustrating game. Rumor has it that it was named “golf” because all the other four-letter words were already taken. To execute good shots, along with good swing mechanics, you need to know how far to hit the ball. Determining that involves knowledge of the course, visibility of available

REVIEW – This review was an interesting challenge. I was expecting the Vastking K100 Windows laptop to fall short of my expectations based on the spec-sheet, but it surprised me in both good and bad ways. If you’re looking for an entry level laptop that is “good enough”, this might tick the boxes for you,

REVIEW – Although I grew up as a Scout (and made Eagle) I’ve never used a hydration bladder. For me, it was always canteens. My son is training for a 50 mile hike this summer, so he’s got many training hikes planned. I thought I’d have him try it out! But first, a look at

REVIEW– As they say it’s 5- o’clock somewhere! I am a huge fan of everyday items that have quality. I’m talking about your great grandmother’s cast iron skillet, your great grandfather’s turn of the century pocket watch, and quite possibly this Elevated Craft cocktail shaker. This gorgeous, stainless steel shaker is well constructed and

SPONSORED REVIEW – In this review, we’re taking a close look at the Bluetti AC200P 2000Wh portable power station.

REVIEW – We’ve reviewed quite a few Mobvoi products here at the Gadgeteer over the years with their smartwatches primarily focusing on fitness, ruggedness, and bang for the buck. In such a crowded tech-space, they continue to hold their own by improving their smartwatch hardware, performance, and user experience. This year is no different, the

REVIEW – It has been more than a year since the Covid pandemic started, and shortly after it started, I began working from home. As time passed, teleworking and video conferencing have become the norm, and devices that support these types of meetings via Microsoft Teams, Zoom, etc have been in demand. In response to
REVIEW – As our digital lives progress, we suddenly find we have a network of things that we are carrying around. Phones, earbuds, watches, tablets – and everything needs recharging at some point. Since we aren’t yet able to leverage the Universal Will to Become to power all our things, we have to pause every so

REVIEW – For the past year, I have been searching for a good chair to use at my podcasting station as I sit for a few hours recording and editing episodes. I have been trying out gaming chairs which are usually inherently designed to support sitting for extended periods of time. I have written a

REVIEW – If the name Tribit doesn’t come to mind when considering a portable Bluetooth speaker, it should. Consumers are catching on to what Tribit’s been doing. Their StormBox line of speakers is stylish, affordable, and sounds really good. No matter who their competition is, Tribit always manages to offer more bang for your hard-earned

REVIEW – I’ve been doing a lot of drawing and leathercraft in the last year and if there’s one thing that you need to do both of these activities and many more, it is light and lots of it. Light helps me make detailed doodles of crazy characters and light helps me see the holes

REVIEW – Over the past few years, it has been quite evident that many households have been trying to “cut the cord” from cable TV. While I have not quite made that decision as yet, I like to have alternate solutions when my cable TV experiences a service interruption or when I want to record

This time around I am testing the Pomabrush electric toothbrush. What is it? The Pomabrush electric toothbrush is designed to effectively clean your teeth

REVIEW – Those that regularly read The Gadgeteer will note that we get a ton of robot vacuums to review. Some are good, some not so good, but all represent the rise of our eventual robot overlords. In my not-so-humble opinion, the Ecovacs DEEBOT series of robot vacuums are at the top of the heap
