REVIEW – When you’re traveling, having a bag to carry around town for day trips is sometimes a hassle. I have at times tossed smaller bags into my checked luggage, but they were always thin, uncomfortable, and offered little protection for my “good” travel camera. WANDRD, a Utah-based company, has released a pack they call […]

REVIEW – As I continue to look for power banks to review and to fit my many power-hungry needs, I am encountering several new entries in this already crowded field of similar devices, some with unique shapes and varying sizes, but all trying to offer as much capacity and versatility as possible.

REVIEW – My desk is a cluttered mess (when I get to use it), so I was super happy to test out the Kanex 7-in-1 Macbook Hub! Lemmy and Prince approve. Han would too, but he’s resting at the moment. To the review! What is it? It’s a compact and portable MacBook hub for extending

REVIEW – Carrying around your stuff can sometimes be simple – grab your laptop/iPad/phone/whatever and walk out. But if you know you’re going to be spending more time typing and need your iPad and your trusty external keyboard, things get more complicated.

REVIEW – I’ve been a Mac user for quite a few years now, but sometimes I wonder if it’s time for me to switch back to a Windows laptop. Don’t get me wrong, MacBooks are great and I love the OS, but they are insanely expensive and I’m not sure how much bang for the

REVIEW – Sometime last year, I reviewed the AirTv Streaming Box and I used it with the Sling TV account and app and with an OTA antenna. I really enjoyed using it then and I still really like the ability to get OTA channels in HD especially when I experience issues with my pay Cable

REVIEW – The Mobvoi TicWatch Pro 4G/LTE is not your grandfather’s wristwatch. OK. I have nine grandchildren, so there is that small possibility. Julie knew I was looking for a smartwatch that has fitness tracking features. Mobvoi offered their latest model up for review and I jumped at the chance to try it out. What

REVIEW – Keyless deadbolt locks are nothing new. For example, there are models that have a keypad that you can input your numeric code to lock and unlock the bolt. And with newer technology, there are some that allow you to operate the lock from your smartphone. Although either method is great to have on

REVIEW – My quest for the perfect earbuds continues! The HolyHigh Waterproof Sports Wireless earbuds might be the coolest looking earbuds I’ve seen to date, and provide some of the latest tech. But how do they play in day-to-day use? To the review! What is it? They’re wireless stereo earbuds that come with a portable

REVIEW – One-Pot multi-cookers are amongst the most popular kitchen gadgets right now. I’ve heard multiple friends and family members rave about how great they are, so I decided to take the plunge and try one out for myself. The unit I’ll be reviewing is the Zavor LUX LCD multi-cooker. What is it? The Zavor

REVIEW – I am one of those computer users that needs a ridiculous number of USB ports to accommodate the plethora of USB devices that I keep attached to my system and ready to use. Since I use so many devices, I also need powered USB hubs, and if there is the ability to power

REVIEW – The SNAPTAIN H823H Plus Mini Drone is a fun, inexpensive way to introduce newbies, young and old, to the joy of drone piloting. The SNAPTAIN comes with a number of added features which just a few years ago would only be found on higher-priced drones. Not all of these additional features work as

REVIEW – I’d like to introduce you to a new adage: “The best battery pack is the one you have with you.” And what better way to make sure you’re carrying an extra power supply than to build it right into your phone case? And that’s just what Mophie aims to do with their sleek

REVIEW – These days, most devices like laptops, MacBooks, etc include at least one USB-C port, and very quickly, USB-C is becoming the standard.

REVIEW – Okay, a bag or backpack is technically not a gadget—I get that. But you gotta carry your stuff (gadgets included) in something, so I’m reviewing a new something to do just that— the Executive Leather Messenger Bag from Waterfield Designs. What is it? The Executive Leather Messenger Bag is the successor to

REVIEW – Most of us are trying to be a little more health-conscious these days. Usually, eating healthier means giving up fried foods. But, they are oh, so delicious! Air frying otherwise deep-fried foods helps make them healthier by significantly reducing, and in some cases, eliminating the oil or fat used to fry. OK –
