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 […]

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

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. The Omars 26800mAh

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. This is the issue targeted by Pad & Quill with their recent Oxford

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
