CROWDFUNDING REVIEW – Life made me give up so many fun vices that I’ve really embraced the few I have left, one of which is coffee (the other is gambling, but we’ll save that for another review). I have tried all sorts of coffee pots over the years but the one I keep coming back

REVIEW – I’ve always been picky when it comes to razors. I prefer to use a very sharp razor, even if it cost more. The Shavelogic Magnetic Razor promises “the best shave of your life,” so I decided to put that to the test. What is it? The Shavelogic Magnetic Razor is a five-blade razor

REVIEW – Chances are increasingly good that that your phone supports wireless charging, and probably your earbuds too. It’s not hard to find chargers out there, but options dwindle the more charging spots you need. That selection further reduces when you want it to be attractive as well. Enter the 4-in-1 Charging Mat from Mophie.

REVIEW – There are more wireless earbuds than you can shake a stick at these days, so I wasn’t expecting much from the Creative Outlier Air V2 In-ear headphones when they sent me a pair to review.

REVIEW – Are you one of those people that always have your hands occupied?

REVIEW – Until laptops start adding ports back (and maybe still even when they do) it’s necessary, or just super helpful, to be able to connect all your accessories to a dock. That way you’re only plugging in a couple cables or in the case of Kensington’s new Thunderbolt 4 Dual 4k Dock, just one.

REVIEW – It’s that time of year again. It’s cold at night, and the central heat is running more often than not. This means the air in our house is very dried out, and my skin tends to get irritated. One solution to this problem is to run a humidifier in the house, which I

REVIEW – My friends will attest that I have a problem with flashlights, namely that I’ve never met a flashlight that I didn’t like (well at least until I’ve tried it out). When the opportunity to review the Imalent RT90 4800 lumen flashlight came up, I jumped on the opportunity. Let’s see if the RT90
