Review: PowerBee Executive and Elite Solar Phone Chargers
UK company PowerBee specialise in providing a range of solar products including lights, fountains and phone chargers. Today we take a look at two of their power banks which can not only be charged by plugging them in but also just by leaving them sitting in the sun. Both devices have a glossy black plastic shell, with the Executive finished off with a chrome (also plastic) surround. At the top of ...[Read More]
Review: XTZ HeadPhone Divine
Review: XTZ HeadPhone Divine I will be honest and say that before this review, I hadn’t heard of the Swedish audio manufacturer XTZ. But checking through their website, I can see that they develop some amazing audio products, and should be on any audiophiles map. I was then excited to see that they have declared a “(r)evolution of the headphone” with the launch of their new Di...[Read More]
Review: Plinth
Plinth Tablet Stand In the past I have had a few tablet stands in the forms of; cases, simple cut out bits of plastic and even Popobe Teddy Bear stands. I had never heard of Plinth before but I was sent a review unit having completely missed its initial kickstarter campaign. John Bull spent two years designing his Plinth tablet stand before taking it to the online crowd fund sourcing websit...[Read More]
Review: Lindy IEM-50X
Review: Lindy IEM-50X The in-ear headphone market is swamped just now. There’s likely thousands of different products available for people to buy. Prices start from as little as under 10 bucks going straight up to a couple of hundred. Our own Accessories section has loads of various options already, but, I think we have something here that’s a little bit different with the Lind...[Read More]
Review: Solememo SE90 Bluetooth Speaker
It’s can be difficult for manufacturers to make their products stand out and this is especially the case with the cut-throat Bluetooth speaker market. The shade of orange that Solememo have used with their SE90 certainly helps but does it deliver much else to make it stand out? Build Quality & Design The cardboard box packaging is a mile away from the stylish presentation of some premium produ...[Read More]
Review: iLumi Smartbulbs
Review: iLumi Smartbulbs Smart items are a fantastic way to save energy, keep a close eye on things and to generally look cool in the process. I have always looked into Smartbulbs and was excited to receive two from iLumi. As with most of these kind of products, the hardware is only as good as the software, iLumi have come far, but I feel there is still room to grow. The bulbs are solid, but the s...[Read More]
Review: URBAN ARMOR GEAR Case for Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge
Review: URBAN ARMOR GEAR Case for Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge As soon as I held my S6 Edge in my hand I knew I had to get a case for it, no matter what MKBHD says. I received this case for review shortly after getting my S6 Edge, and I was glad I did because at the moment, I’m using the Verus cases. This case is probably the best case on the market for any of the Galaxy lines so far. I have used ...[Read More]
Review: Livescribe 3 Smartpen
Review: Livescribe 3 Smartpen The Livescribe 3 was released about 18 months ago. So I would understand some questions about the late review. The smartpen finally has software support for Android! I first caught wind of the Android app being released back in March, the preview was released just a couple weeks ago, and now I am allowed to explain how the hardware and app work. After only a couple of...[Read More]
Review: ei8htball EX811 In-ear headphone
Review: ei8htball EX811 In-ear headphone I am always on the look out for a decent pair of well made and comfortable headphones. So I was quite excited to use the Ei8htball EX811 Earphones. I have been using the headphones for a couple of weeks and so far I am very impressed. They deal with high, mid and low tones extremely well producing a clear, crisp sound with pretty much all music genres I tri...[Read More]
Review: Avantree PowerHouse
Review: Avantree PowerHouse The Avantree PowerHouse Desk USB Charging Station is a great solution for charging multiple devices at home or at the office. It can charge 4 devices simultaneously with its 4.5A output, and will keep your desk or table top tidy. I’m sure we all have a phone and tablet maybe a smartwatch, even your partner’s phone. One of the biggest drawbacks in toda...[Read More]
Review: Avatar yourself with PadBot
Review: Avatar yourself with PadBot Have you ever wanted to put yourself into a robot, and move around somewhere else? So did I, and I was incredibly excited to see my new PadBot arrive in the post. These controllable devices tend to be very expensive. Running between 2000 and 3000 pounds on average. Allowing you to connect to the device remotely and control it, moving about the space as though y...[Read More]
Review: Xenta XForce 5.1 Surround Sound Speakers
Review: Xenta XForce 5.1 Surround Sound Speakers Review I have reviewed a couple of Android TV boxes over this year, see link – droidhorizon.com/?s=minix. They have always worked really well, but I was always so underwhelmed by the sound my TV produced. Thats why I was happy to see a package arrive from Xenta, their 5.1 Surround Sound speakers. The big box that arrived included a sub woofer,...[Read More]
