Reviews about interesting gadgets, gear, mobile technology and lifestyle products.
I have a confession to make. Before this review, I’ve never consumed wine from a cardboard box container. It’s not that I’m a wine snob, it’s just that the limited number of wines I enjoy, only come in bottles. So, the makers of the Boxxle provided me with their 3 liter bag-in-box dispenser so that I could […]

So your car has built-in Bluetooth for your iPhone, but how do you activate Siri without fumbling for your handset? Until all cars get Siri integration, the Mobile Home Bluetooth Siri Remote from Beanco might just be the solution.

During the 90’s, when cell phones were becoming all the rage, the belt clip for phones became a status symbol of sorts. Since phones started out so large that they wouldn’t fit in a pocket, clipping them to a belt (or hiding them in a fanny pack) was an acceptable way to transport them. Even

Wallets! We’ve shown and reviewed quite a few of them here at The Gadgeteer, and I wouldn’t expect that to change in the future. Wallets seem to be a quintessential gadget item. Part of our EDC, we carry them everywhere with us, and each of us has certain expectations for our wallets. Bellroy is a

If you enjoy keeping a journal, scrapbooks, stats and info about your daily life, you might be a lifelogger and not even know it. According to Wikipedia the term lifelogging means: Lifeloggers (also known as lifebloggers or lifegloggers) typically wear computers in order to capture their entire lives, or large portions of their lives. If you think wearing a

I am a big fan of tablets for my everyday reading of news, setting reminders, and writing down notes. I’ve tried a couple of styluses back when I owned my first iPad, and I continue to try them for my Nexus 7. I also enjoy a good old-fashioned pen when I need to write down

We’re all in search of the perfect gear bag, right? Well, maybe not all of us, but a lot of us. Keen to this quest, Tom Bihn has been designing and manufacturing (in the USA) several growing lines of products for gear-hauling, travel, organization, and other similar needs since 1972. Tom Bihn recently up-sized its

The latest Bluetooth speaker to show up on my doorstep is the Minx Go Bluetooth speaker from Cambridge Audio. I’ve been using it for a few days and so far it’s been a winner in both sound and battery life. It’s more expensive than some of the other speakers that I’ve looked at recently (see related

Biting insects can be one of the more annoying things in the world, especially those pesky mosquitoes that leave you itching for days to come. Their purpose on the Earth is truly lost on me, here purely to bother, pester, and potentially spread disease. There are few places that do not have these “lovely” creatures

Recently, I reviewed Velodyne’s fun vPulse earphones. They stood out for their accurate bass – and why not? Velodyne became famous for subwoofers, so if they can’t get the bass right, who can? When I had to chance to review Velodyne’s full-sized vTrue headphone, I was curious to find out if bass is handled as well

So whats in my wallet? Do I even need to carry a wallet anymore? If I don’t want to carry a wallet, how do I carry my basics for everyday life? A while back there was a news posting about the HuMn Wallet, which is not so much a wallet in the classical sense as

I’m always looking for ways to cut down on my monthly expenses, and one of the areas I’ve been having a problem controlling is electricity consumption. The issue is that we don’t really know what’s keeping our bill so high, making it difficult to affect changes. There are energy monitoring devices available, but most of

My daily geek uniform includes a pair of sneakers, tennis shoes, athletic shoes, kicks or whatever other name you might call them. I own more pairs of sneakers than “grown up” shoes and am picky when it comes to their style and comfort. A month or so ago when I saw the news about the

I’ve likened my daughter’s treatment of headphones and earphones to the treatment the gorilla gave the American Tourister luggage in that 1971 commercial – only her equipment doesn’t hold up to the treatment as well as the luggage did. She’s gone through a plethora of wired headphones and earbuds over the years, and the point
I must admit that I have not, until this review, really joined the LED flashlight revolution. I do have a pen knife and other little knickknacks with LED lights incorporated into them, but they are not what I would call full-fledged utility flashlights. So getting a chance to review the True Utility TrueLite Maxi 3W

I have a problem. It’s a personal problem, but I can admit it publicly. I need power. Lot’s of it. I crave it all day (or, at least my gadgets do), and I have a fear of being without it. So I have chargers everywhere – my house, my vehicles, my computer bag, my office.

I love listening to music or podcasts on my home PC and at my office. Sometimes you just need to tune into something upbeat to get your work done! My desk space is limited, so since I was given the opportunity to try out the Dual Sonic speakers from Satechi, I grabbed the chance.

This is the third case I recently received to try with my iPhone 5 from Vaja Cases. The Leather Grip Hardshell Case for iPhone 5 is a leather-wrapped hard backcover case. It’s quite different from the Vaja flip-cover cases I recently review. (Check the related links at the bottom of the review.) This case is for the person
