griffin itripclip

Next week Apple is going to officially announce the iPhone 7 and it will not have a 3.5mm headphone jack. The Motorola Moto Z beat them to the punch on being the first smartphone without a headphone […]

Braven BRV-1M portable Bluetooth speaker review

Braven BRV 1M 11

You might think that after reviewing the ginormous Braven BRV-XXL, it would be a letdown following that up with a review of the much, much smaller BRV-1M speaker. But that would be a wrong assumption. Yes, the BRV-XXL sounds better—a lot better than the BRV-1M. So what? It ought to—it’s over ten times bigger and

Creative iRoar Wireless Intelligent Speaker review

Creative iRoar 16

Say what you will about Creative Labs; they sure know how to milk a product line. In 2014, I reviewed the Creative Roar Bluetooth speaker and fell in love with its ability to sound as good as the current (at the time) portable Bose speakers at a fraction of the price. Yeah, it had some

Rock Jaw Audio Clarito earphones review

Rock Jaw clarito 2

British audio company Rock Jaw’s Genus earphones impressed me not only with audio that sounded better than the price would indicate, but the Genus also offered a set of filters for the ultimate customization. However, as I’ve discovered with most earphones that come with filters—once you find one you like, that’s the one you stick

Kenu Groovies headphones for kids review

kenu groovies 2

As I have written here at the Gadgeteer before, Kenu designs products that are simple in design, easy-to-use, and products that just work.  You won’t see many buttons, switches, or blinking lights on their products.  If you’ll allow me to make a comparison, I think comparing Kenu products to Apple products may give you an

Motorola’s VerveOnes+ wireless earbuds review

motorola verve onesplus 1

In the beginning, there were speakers. Then came headphones with wires, then smaller earphones with wires. Next came wireless earphones that didn’t require a wired connection to the music device, but required a wire between each earphone. Now we have Motorola’s VerveOnes+ wireless earbuds which are truly wireless. I’ve been excited to try this style of wireless

Sharkk Bravo Hybrid Electrostatic Headphones review

Sharkk Bravo 1

In the world of headphones, there are a few different technologies that are used to reproduce music. By far, the most common are dynamic speaker headphones—basically a miniature speaker sitting right next to your ear. Then there’s planer-magnetic headphones which are (usually) far more accurate than dynamic speakers minus the bass kick (again, usually). Finally,

The Braven 105 Bluetooth speaker is as active as you are

Braven Active 105 4

Just when I finished reviewing the huge Braven BRV-XXL, they released the smallest of the Braven family; the Braven 105 Active. The 105 is made for just that—an active lifestyle. While you could conceivably get more exercise jogging while carrying  the 18 lb. BRV-XXL, it’s obviously not practical—and just plain weird. The Braven 105, however,
