REVIEW – Continuing in the trend of “commuter packs that can hold any screen, so long as it’s skinny”, we’ve got a new contender from an old friend. Add to the required main large, narrow screen sleeve a flexible set of pockets and versatile straps, and you’ve got a winner. This one is from Targus, […]

REVIEW – Wireless earbuds are being released and changed at a rapid rate. Only two years ago, there were few options. Now, companies seem to bring out new styles and feature-sets daily. Today’s model is the Slide, from PaMu. This is the third set of totally wireless earbuds I’ve reviewed from this company, and they

REVIEW – The Anet A8 3D printer was introduced in 2017 and quickly gained a following because of its affordability, capability, and adaptability to modification. On the downside, however, the printer had poor documentation, a relatively steep learning curve, a shaky frame, and a potential safety issue. The Anet A8 Plus is the successor to

REVIEW – More often than not, we have to tote around a bunch of daily-carry items that don’t fit in our pockets, but feel like overkill to put into a big backpack. Legendary wallet maker Bellroy looks to do away with your bulky shoulder bags and heavy packs with their diminutive Sling satchel. Is it

REVIEW – Cheerble Wicked Ball is a “smart toy” aimed at keeping your pet active and engaged, especially when you’re not home. What is it?

REVIEW – Recently I reviewed the Bunktrunk footlocker for my daughter. It came with a cute, little Bluetooth speaker about which I wrote, “It may not be loud enough to fill my house with sound, but it will be plenty loud in a dorm room.” Looking back, I think this is how I thought about

REVIEW – You’re not going to find a bigger fan of fried food than this writer. Growing up, I regularly attended the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo, which is famous for having booths of fried food including twinkies, snickers and oreos. Needless to say I’ve consumed my fair share of fried goods. I’ve been intrigued

REVIEW – Some may say that I am addicted to television and movies since I tend to watch one or the other any time I can. Sometimes when I am in that mood, I am not at a location where television is available. This is often the case when I am away from home. My

REVIEW – So you’re trying to ditch your wallet, but you need a bit more room for cash and cards than one of those single-slot phone cases.

REVIEW – When it comes to food, I am lazy. By that, I mean that I’ll grab whatever is handy to eat for breakfast or lunch. What I end up eating is quick but not necessarily the most healthy for me. My latest bad habit is eating protein bars which are pretty much just glorified

REVIEW – Shaving – the bane of most men’s existence. Every morning, and for some poor dudes, twice a day, we drag razors over our faces, hacking the whiskers off to give us that smooth, professional look. In my case, as a retired guy, I do it so I am not all hairy and scratchy

REVIEW – I have a confession to make: Although I have a nice gaming rig and a set of quality peripherals, I’m still using a Logitech H570e for my headset. While this $35 device might be fine in the office for making the occasional Slack call, it’s not exactly a high-quality gaming headset. It’s time

REVIEW – My wife constantly complains about the number of wires I have running in our home. From her perspective, they seem to be everywhere.

REVIEW – A few years ago, I reviewed a wallet from Allett and I was quite impressed with its durability and slim, minimalist style. Recently, Allett sent us a handful of their latest wallet designs to try out. In a wallet, I typically consider three factors: appearance, slimness, and organization features. How did this latest
REVIEW – As a Videographer, I am always looking for ways to add versatility and enhancements to my video shoots, including ways to be totally mobile and lightweight when on the go.
