There are a variety of bands available from Apple for their Watch and an even bigger variety of bands from third-party vendors.  It seems that most of the third-party bands are simply lower-priced variations of the Apple offerings, though.  If you’re looking for an Apple Watch band that is different and perhaps more stylish than

QICENT 10 Port USB Hub 3 e1508793153823

The 10 port USB hub from QICENT is pretty self-explanatory.  After receiving this sample to review, the particular model that I received is no longer available for sale on Amazon or anywhere else that I could find for that matter.  Other offerings from QICENT are similar and can be found on Amazon but this particular model seems to have disappeared.  SHARE

Chamberlain MyQ 08 Custom

If your home is anything like mine, we don’t use our front door much. More times than not, we come and go through the garage door, even when not using a vehicle. Inevitably, the door gets left open, creating an ideal habitat for many friendly (and not so friendly) woodland creatures. This doesn’t happen much
