Reviews about interesting gadgets, gear, mobile technology and lifestyle products.
Don’t be fooled by the “i” in the name, the iProp Universal Tablet Stand (not to be confused with the other iProp iPad floor stand reviewed by Julie) is a universal tablet/smartphone stand, which my Kindle Fire has been nestled in for a few weeks now. It is advertised to be a self-adjusting stand that reduces neck […]

The popularity of portable Bluetooth speakers is pretty obvious if you’ve been keeping track of all the reviews we’ve been doing for the past year or two. Guess what? We have another one for you today. It’s the S113BT from Arctic. What makes this speaker any different from all the others on the market? This

My first iPhone case was the Hornettek Vader iPhone 4 case (see related posts for a link to my review), and I loved it. Its style and lightweight aluminum frame made my phone look great. One of the major flaws with it, however, was that I had to take the case off to use my

Technology is awesome and convenient, especially smartphones and tablets. They are getting smaller, faster, and can have pretty good battery life built in. Sometimes you go to an event where your mobile phone is searching for signal constantly, in which you find yourself in the predicament of losing battery charge quickly. It’s always a good idea

We love flashlights here at The-Gadgeteer. They are valuable tools to have around for emergencies or work usages. Most flashlights these days are LED based because of the advantages of energy efficiency and high lumens output. I’m here to test OLight’s M10 Maverick LED Flashlight that was provided by BatteryJunction.com.

At first glance, the Nessie by Blue Microphones looks like an award one might receive at a music award ceremony because of its impressive stature. But it is named after the mythological Loch Ness monster and resembles it with its “S” curve and long neck silhouette. But it begs the question, does it stand up

With the change in mobile listening habits from stored music to streaming and Apple’s move from their 30-pin connector, we’ve seen a huge increase in wireless portable speakers. Used to be, everyone wanted an iPod or iPhone dock, but as Bluetooth has become more robust, so, too, have the speakers being offered. Today, you visit

Having become a recent convert to the iPhone 5, I am always looking for ways to accentuate and protect my investment. I have gone the extreme route with full waterproof and shockproof covers, but I have come to realize that I may not need that much protection. So, after reviewing another aluminum iPhone 5 bumper

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 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
