My first impression on the i60 from ThiEYE was that it was going to be another POV action camera. Although it is similar to other cameras on the market, the i60 has some unique features of its own that makes it stand out from the rest.

The Trimr All-In Tote (a new Kickstarter project) is a seriously stylish gym bag! And tough too!

The bottom zipper opens w-i-d-e to

What is it with strange looking bluetooth speakers? Earlier this year I had a chance to listen to the hole-in-the-middle Fluance Fi70. This time, we’re going to look at the distinctively angular Nyne Rebel splashproof portable Bluetooth speaker.

We all have battery chargers by now, right? Some are large, some small, some include cables to connect to phones or tablets. But one thing almost every charger I have seen has is this: you have to carry along a phone charger or a device capable of charging the battery to top it off. (It
