Reviews about interesting gadgets, gear, mobile technology and lifestyle products.
REVIEW – I have reviewed a couple of scooters for The Gadgeteer. My first was the Yadea ElitePrime scooter with a max speed of 18.6mph. The second was the HiBoy Max Pro scooter that could go up to 22 mph. I admit that I seriously have the need for speed. I get that fix on […]

REVIEW – The flood of Mini PCs continues unabated. I’ve personally reviewed a half dozen of these useful little PCs over the years, and while they keep getting better, the sheer number of models is starting to become hard to differentiate. I had to double check my notes and pictures multiple times while writing this

REVIEW – Planning a trip to Southeast Asia later this year, one of my main means of transport will be the ubiquitous scooter. Now when I lived there for a couple of years, I regularly transported 2 x 20 litre water bottles or even once a four shelf bookcase, but I really don’t want to

REVIEW – A good go to watch is a must have for anyone that wants to show a little sophistication on a daily basis. I don’t mean a smartwatch gadget on your wrist. I mean a traditional watch. Whether it’s analog or digital, there is just nothing like having a singular-purpose, time-telling watch you can

REVIEW – I’ve always enjoyed using a good multi-tool. My biggest issue with them is the propensity I have for losing them, but that’s another story.

REVIEW – Ever since I remodeled my garage and turned half of it into my workshop, I have wanted to incorporate a touchscreen mounted on one of the walls that I could use to control the smart switches, lights, and Bluetooth devices that I installed, I settled for a smartphone with a 6″ screen, and

REVIEW – These days, it feels like every product is trying to squeeze in some form of artificial intelligence, whether it’s truly useful or just a flashy add-on. Just like how some people never touch the bottle opener on their multi-tool, AI can sometimes feel like a feature you didn’t ask for and might not use.

REVIEW – Using multiple devices was once an odd thing to see. No more. Between laptops, smartphones, and smart watches, we all are carrying around one or more (sometimes many more!) devices that are more powerful computationally than what Alan Shepherd entered space with in Freedom 7. And the more we want to do with

REVIEW – There are a plethora of reasons why I am more of a cat person than a dog person. Probably the ultimate number one reason though, is the fact that I don’t have to pick up anything when my cat goes outside… I think we all know what I’m talking about here, but even

The Evergreen 56 case definitely fits the bill and provides a durable, waterproof dry box to keep your gear safe regardless of the adventure you’re on.

REVIEW – It’s been my experience that 3D printers are kind of like potato chips—you can’t have just one. Keeping in that spirit, I’ve recently acquired two brand-new Elegoo 3D printers: a Centauri Carbon FDM printer, which I reviewed recently, and a Saturn 4 Ultra 16K Resin 3D Printer, which will be released by Elegoo
REVIEW – Since my last review of a keyboard for The Gadgeteer (Royal Kludge S98), I have become quite a fan of the modern mechanical keyboard. I’m learning as much as I can about the different switch types, and what makes a mechanical keyboard good for me. Everyone has different preferences. The most significant requirement

REVIEW – Guitar amps have continued to get smaller and while there’s nothing quite like playing through a vintage amp and 4×12 cabinet, not all of us have the space, sound-proof rooms or family that will put up with it. Positive Grid sent their Spark NEO and while using this product and writing this review

REVIEW – It seems like two or three times a year we lose power. Thunderstorms, hurricanes, or high winds knock down trees and power lines, and suddenly everything in the house is off. When these sorts of events happen, it would be nice to have some way to keep the computers, refrigerators, and other important

REVIEW – I cook almost every night of the week, so I know my way around a knife or two. These knives from the Butterfork Purest line present something I have not seen before. They take inspiration from Japanese-style designs with handles that can be removed and replaced if you want to change up your

REVIEW – Desktop space is often precious when using large monitors. I’d been wanting to try a monitor arm mounting system for my at-home workstation, but it would need to accommodate my two heavy 32″ monitors. The Mount-It! Dual Monitor Desk Mount With Gas Spring Arms seemed like it would fit the bill. Let’s check
