NEWS – When Apple first released the HomePod, they designed it to be a Bluetooth speaker first and a smart device second. It had amazing sound but cost way too much ($350), and thus it was largely ignored while Echos and Dots sold like crazy. Most people didn’t care about a speaker that was a […]

REVIEW – Over the years, my wife and I have tried a variety of different materials for sheets and pillowcases, including cotton, flannel, satin, silk, and microfiber. All have their place. Some are warmer, and some are cooler. Some are rougher, and others are smoother. For the past three weeks my wife and I have

REVIEW – Four years ago (has it been 4 years?), I reviewed the Audioengine HD3 speakers. In that review, I said that the HD3 speakers were better than Audioengine’s much more expensive HD6 speakers when placed on a computer desk. I noted that the Audioengie HD6 speakers were overkill for what is termed “near-field listening”.

REVIEW – We all have them: those surge protectors that either have a mile of extra cord to manage, or that are just short of reaching the outlet you want to plug into. Aracky’s SuperDanny Spin Tower solves both of these problems worth a neat, elegant solution. Let’s dive in! What is it? Vertical power

REVIEW – It’s a lazy Saturday morning, catching up on some Godzilla films (as one does). I’ve got these Strauss & Wagner EM205 Earbuds to test out with my old-school audio inputs on my iPad. Sometimes simple solutions to simple problems just work best. To the review! What is it? They’re earphones with a standard

REVIEW – Part of being a writer for the Gadgeteer is also being a photographer. We have to take all our own pictures of the products that we review. I don’t know about the other writers, but I am not a professional photographer, so I’m always looking for ways to improve the quality of the

REVIEW – Last Christmas, I bought myself an 11inch iPad Pro which didn’t get any use until just recently when I started using it to watch AppleTV shows while walking on the treadmill (who else loved Ted Lasso and Mythic Quest?). Now I’m trying to find other ways to integrate the iPad Pro into my

REVIEW – You seldom see me at work without my trusty water bottle, and I’m pretty particular about the ones I use. I’ve tried quite a few, but I’m pretty excited about the Philips GoZero Hydration Bottle because it does something none of my favorite water bottles can do: it cleans itself! What is it?

REVIEW – When I’m at work I usually get a fair amount of exercise walking from place to place, and I stand a lot more than I’m doing now, so I didn’t panic when the whole “sitting is the new smoking” thing went around on social media. But times are different now. If sitting really
