REVIEW – I’m a daily coffee drinker, but I suppose not as sophisticated a connoisseur as some coffee aficionados. Because the free coffee at my work is an abysmally-flavored near-poison, I’d been considering the purchase of a French press with the intention of brewing my own coffee there. A few colleagues had mentioned a type […]

REVIEW – Most moderate- to high-end phones these days include Qi charging as a given. Because of this, manufacturers are finding it profitable to bring out chargers that can fit into our environment easily, but sometimes, you just want a simple stand/charger with no frills, right? YooTech has just released such a charger and we

REVIEW – If you’re looking for super lightweight earbuds, EarFun Free earbuds are only 2 ounces and they’re comfortable enough to wear all day. They have a sleek, efficient design that can fit into your pocket. But most importantly, they deliver impressive sound quality without being outrageously expensive. What is it? In-ear headphones that are

REVIEW – Selfie Sticks are a universally polarizing thing. Folks either adore them or detest them. But if you add in a shutter remote and a tripod that folds up into the handle, is it still a selfie stick? This is the question brought to mind by the new BlitzWolf Selfie Stick model BW-BS10, which

REVIEW – Bluetooth speakers are not hard to find. They come in all shapes and sizes. Guitar amps are also readily available and many now support Bluetooth. Roland’s BTM-1 strikes a different balance and pairs a tastefully retro portable Bluetooth speaker with an instrument input that might just be the speaker you didn’t know you

REVIEW – Some people love to cook and are good at it. Others of us are not-so-skilled, but we still have to eat. Eating out every night is rather expensive, and Ramen noodles get old in a hurry. What’s a non-cook to do? I have a theory: I think it’s possible to do a lot

REVIEW – A few months ago, my neighbor had a burst washing machine water line, resulting in substantial damage, a huge mess, large expense, and a lot of frustration. It got me thinking that there should be a better way to prevent this from happening. I’m thrilled that the Phyn Plus Smart Assist shutoff should

REVIEW – Sometimes I want to consume audio content alone, but often I want to share it with my wife. We listen to music together while working in the garage, audio books while driving in the car during our vacation, and podcasts while cooking and cleaning in the kitchen. For times like these, it’s nice

REVIEW – I have been following the true wireless earbuds trend for the past several years and had recently decided to dip my toe in the water. When the opportunity to review the latest wireless earbuds from Skullcandy came up, I decided to go on and jump in. What is it? The Sesh true wireless

REVIEW – With all of the challenges that kids face in today’s world, parents usually look for advantages that they can afford to provide as many educational opportunities for their children so that they are not only continuously learning, but also exploring all of their creative abilities. Robo Wunderkind is a company that makes these

REVIEW – I’ve been well over-due for a router upgrade. I was just about to buy a new one when this review offer came along so I jumped at the chance to check out what the tp-link Archer A7 could do. What is it? The Archer A7 AC1750 is a wireless dual-band gigabit router that

REVIEW – Creative Outlier Gold True Wireless earbuds are an update to the Creative Outlier Air True Wireless earbuds that Julie reviewed back in May. The new Gold True earbuds are designed to fit comfortably in your ear and to boost excellent sound quality with their new “headphone holography” Super X-fi feature. What is it?

REVIEW – Getting started with home automation can start as simply as adding a remote-controlled light bulb. But if you have the budget for it, my suggestion for getting started with home automation is to invest in a robot vacuum cleaner. Once you get a robo vac, you’ll wonder how you ever got along without

REVIEW – Better air quality indoors has been shown to improve health for humans and pets. Whether it’s a super-fine HEPA filter, a radical new way of zapping allergies, or misting healthy essential oils into the air to combat the effects of the bad bugs, we’ve covered devices for this here at The Gadgeteer. Today,

CROWDFUNDING REVIEW – It’s easy to dismiss cycling lights as something you only need if riding while it’s dark out. In fact, anything you can do to create visibility (flashing lights, pool noodles, etc.) goes a long way towards making sure others are aware you’re there. This applies to roads as much as trails, and

REVIEW – Qi charging continues to be placed everywhere there is a flat surface. The Apple Watch Kanex charging stand I reviewed over two years ago as the first Watch charger that did not require adding your own charger has now been given the wireless treatment for phones as well – meet the Kanex GoPower

REVIEW – Beach trips require stuff. Lots of stuff. Sunglasses, something to read and/or listen to, sunscreen, towels, drinks, drink opener, flip-flops, and so on. How do you shlep your stuff? You grab whatever bag you have at-hand. Then, you come home with a bag full of your stuff plus enough sand to fill a

REVIEW – Redundant backups are something you won’t use until you need them and if you’re not the type to worry about backups, at some point in your life, you’ll find out just how important they can be. Most of us carry 100s or even 1000s of photos in our pockets. Photos of our family,

REVIEW – Some days it’s easy to keep our phones charged: We’re at home, at the office, or in the car. Other days, however, are more difficult: We’re out and about, shopping or hiking, or at a conference or in an airport. If we’re constantly using our phone, or if it’s older and can’t hold

REVIEW – Seems like everyone and their brother makes an air fryer these days. It makes sense people are trying to eat healthier, and air fryers are a good start. They greatly reduce fat and oil content without sacrificing the crunch and taste we all love from deep-fried foods. I own an air fryer that
