There have been many wireless cases, which add the ability to phones or tablets built without a charging system, but the folks at Luxa2 removed the case, and thus, freed up the idea of wireless charging for everything.

MPOW has recently come out with a new Bluetooth 4.0 speaker which I really like. I have quite a few portable speakers in my collection but this one is now my favorite. Like all of my speakers you can plug it into your phone or iPod via the headphone jack. Nothing new or special there.

I am a bagoholic. I have two closets filled with bags from waist packs, day bags, shoulder bags to camera backpacks. Some of them date back a ways…I still have and use both a Roadwired Pod and Podzilla! I am always on the lookout for that next bag that will hold what I need when

I avoid checking bags in while flying whenever possible. Additional bag fees? No, it’s the hassle of waiting for checked bags at the carousel, the risk of lost luggage, and the tendency to overpack. I tend to travel with lots of loose items (charging cables, wall warts, adapters), so what if I could find a

Backpacks and messenger bags have become our preferred everyday carry bags. But what happens when you need something a little more business-like? Waterfield’s newly updated Cozmo 2.0 laptop bag seems to be the type of bag that would be useful in a business setting. While reviewing the bag, I found that it is even more

In the past year or so, quadcopters and drones have exploded onto the scene. What used to be a novelty in Brookstone or the Sharper Image, is now everywhere. I’m not exaggerating when I say I recently saw a shelf full of drones in a local 7-11. I’ve always wanted to get one, but could

Are you curious about how well some products stand the test of time after we post our initial review? What happens days, weeks, months or years after that post? Do we keep using the products only to have them fail soon after? That’s what these review updates posts are for. From time to time we’ll

I freely admit that the new Logi (formally Logitech) Blok keyboard case is the first iPad keyboard I’ve ever used. iPad keyboard cases just never held any interest to me—until the Blok came out. For some reason, the Blok intrigued me where no other keyboard cases had before. So, this review is from a newbie

I saw the above cartoon on Twitter a month or so back. It shows the symbols all Gadgeteers fear: No wifi, the “waiting” pinwheel from your phone’s weak processor, the flashing red battery icon, and, of course, No Cell Service. While service coverage will vary depending on geography and location, and the processing power of your

As I’ve said time and time again, I’m in a car a lot. A good portion of the gadgets I buy are to make life easier on me while in my car. One of my constant sources of frustration is where to keep my phone while driving. When cell phones first came out, you could

I am not ashamed to admit that I am a huge gamer chick. While I used to get by on a cheap “gaming” mouse a few years ago, nowadays, I would not even bother anymore with them. Since moving to a gaming mouse, my game has improved quite a bit. The current mouse I have

I spend a lot of time driving, and I’ve grown tired of my local radio stations and the same 5 song set list. Fortunately, there are tons of apps that give me access to a variety of music and every vehicle I drive has an auxiliary input. Unfortunately, when using auxiliary inputs, simple things like

After several weeks of using the new Incase Reform Sling bag, I am conflicted by its unique design, its great organizational features, and its limitations because of the above. The Reform sling bag was specifically designed to hold the new 12” MacBook. While I do not have one of these MacBooks (I have a 13.3”

There are few things worse than realizing your phone or tablet is running out of juice and there isn’t a power outlet in sight. Fortunately, power banks are dropping in cost while increasing in storage abilities. Recently, I was given the opportunity to review one such device, the Innori 12000 mAh power bank.

StikBot is the world’s first social media sharing toy. What exactly does that mean? StikBots are posable figures that kids and adults can use to create stop motion videos that are then shared to sites like YouTube and Instagram. It’s a fun idea to get kids interested in film making, but are StikBots the way to
I recently purchased the Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+ smartphone. I did so for many reasons but one of the main reasons was the rapid charging and wireless charging abilities built into the phone. I don’t have to buy an extra bulky case to go around the phone to give me the wireless charging ability, it’s

The magic of natural materials is never lost on a true gadgeteer. While silicon, glass and aluminum (the most common building blocks of our current most popular gadgets) are natural, we also like to ensconce them in other natural materials – leather, wool felt, and wood. The individual uniquenesses that each of these bring inspires

Samsung’s newest top-end smartphone is the Samsung Galaxy Note 5. How much has it evolved since the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 was introduced last year? Should Note 4 users consider upgrading? Those are just a couple of the questions that I’ll answer in this review. Let’s get started.
