Reviews about interesting gadgets, gear, mobile technology and lifestyle products.
I’m approaching this review of the Pocket Hose Ultra differently than I usually do with my other reviews. I’m going into it knowing that I will need to make at least 2 more updates before I’m able to form an opinion or make a recommendation to buy this item. We see a lot of “As […]

You’ve just spent a mint on that shiny new iDevice and want to sheath it in something nice, classy, protective and did I mention classy? Here’s an interesting option for you: a thick, understated yet elegant bamboo case! This offering is from Primovisto and, while it ticks the boxes for elegant, chic, solid and classy,

It is interesting and humorous how thoughts and opinions differ between men and women on certain topics. Many times there is a black and white line separating their perspectives on some things. In this case, (overly-) powerful handheld lasers… the kind that can pop a balloon from across the room, melt plastic, and need eye

I admit, when I read Gadgeteer reviews for the wireless charging pads, I am jealous. While I love my iPhone, I wish I could easily charge it up like the Android phones do. For an iPhone to have the same capabilities, we have to have a case, like the uNu Aero wireless charging battery case and mat.

Have you ever traveled somewhere with your mobile phone, tablet or other gadget and you simple didn’t have a place to plug them in when the power ran out? I recently had the chance to review a massive 22400mAh battery pack from EC Technology. I was super excited to try it out on my next

The warmth of real leather pairs so well with the clean, metallic sheen of today’s electronics. I never tire of feeling and smelling this old-world material while using cutting edge technology. The folks at BUKcase have added a very simple series to their product line for iPhones and iPads, which they call Cote. I was

Over the years we’ve reviewed quite a few backup batteries for smartphones and other devices. These accessories come in very handy for frequent travelers who never know when they will have access to a power outlet to recharge their devices. But for the most part, backup batteries have just one purpose and that is to recharge

I am always on the hunt for an open outlet to charge my devices. And where are they located? Generally behind some piece of furniture! It’s a wonder I haven’t become a contortionist by now after all the practice I’ve had squeezing into narrow spaces to plug in our phones and tablets. Older houses or hotels

As always, I’m happy to try out new cases for my electronics, especially when they are as well made and beautiful as Oberon Design products are. When Oberon offered The Gadgeteer a chance to review their new leather iPhone cases, I asked Julie if I could try them out. I was thrilled when I received

Portable sound and power. That’s what it’s all about today, it seems. Everyone has enough storage, or knows how to access it in the cloud. Everyone knows you need several cases and bags for all your stuff in varying situations. Now, it’s how to hear music (or whatever) in your chosen working area, and how

If your computer looks anything like mine, there are about 3-4 random charging cables dangling out of the back of it, corresponding to phones, tablets, e-readers, etc. At the end of the day it’s the same annoyance of swatting through each cable to try to find the one I need. My desk at the moment

I’ve been looking into a security system for my home, but I keep running into the cost issue of a monthly service charge. So, I took a different tack and decided to cobble together my own using off the shelf network cameras. I had several cameras arrayed around the house, but I was missing a

I am a huge advocate for screen protection and when available, full-body protection on my electronic devices…from my smartphone to my laptop. For years, ZAGG invisibleSHIELD films have protected my smart-devices, even now one of their full-body films protects my MacBook Pro. But in the past few years, glass screen protectors have become increasingly more

I’ve had the same “Brand B” big-name label maker for nearly 15 years. Why would I need another one? Sure, my old one is heavy, hard-to-read, and often frustrating to use… Okay, maybe it’s time to give the Epson LabelWorks Safety Kit a look.

Torn. Conflicted. Confused. Verklempt. Ok, maybe not verklempt, but conflicted, yes. I am one of those people who gave up the traditional digital camera and exclusively use my Samsung Galaxy S4 as my digital camera. It’s with me all the time, right? And like many of you I have struggled to take good pictures consistently

Smart watches are becoming more and more popular. It’s intriguing to think of having a Dick Tracy-style watch that shows you the time and keeps you in communication with your world. There are already several smart watches on the market that sync with your phone so you can see who’s calling or texting, let you

When I picked up my first pair of Apple earbuds, I was very disappointed in how they kept falling out of my ears. Then Earpods came out, and since they had a different shape, I thought they would work better, but still, I had no luck. Sprng offered to have their Sprng clips for the

The original Withings Pulse has been my my favorite activity tracker since reviewing it last August, so I was delighted when I learned that Withings was going to release a new version called the Pulse O2 with a new blood oxygen level function. Is it a revolutionary or an evolutionary update to what is in my opinion, the

Working in IT for my day job and being a gadget fan, I carry a lot of gear each day. I’ve always admired the many reviews for SCOTTeVEST here on the-gadgeteer and now finally get a chance to do a review myself! Spring season is upon us here in New York, so this looked
