Review: UBSOUND Smarter Pro Wired In-Ear Earphones

We’re always been impressed with the audio performance from UBSOUND headphones, and so were interested to see how their new budget (£14.99/$24.99) pair of wired in-ear earphones stack up. Available in either black or white versions, they’re a fairly conventional set with ergonomically rounded plastic earpieces connected to a straight 3.5mm audio jack by a thin TPU coated 1.2M tangle-free wire incl...[Read More]

Review: Syllable earbuds

For the last several days, I have been trying out a set of ear bud headphones from Syllable. They claim to have dynamic sounds that balances the high, mid, and low ends of audio, predicated on each bud apparently having two speakers within. Let’s see how things panned out in actual use. The earbuds I were sent were brown colored in wire, with a gray, brushed “metal” appearance to...[Read More]

Review: SmartOmni’s Optimus Bluetooth bike speaker

Released by SmartOmni, the Optimus is a wireless, Bluetooth speaker that is designed around the idea of that it can be fastened to a bike.  It comes with a SIZEABLE battery that delivers as promised. It also comes with other good ideas, that don’t seem to pan out. The appearance of this speaker is nice. It’s shaped like a cylinder, and it is several inches long, with an industrial appe...[Read More]

Review: iClever’s two in one Bluetooth transmitter/receiver

  iClever has a bluetooth adapter available, for use with mobile devices. It’s a small, quite pocketable device, where users are able to plug in headphones or speakers to work wirelessly, that wouldn’t be able to otherwise. The device can either transmit or receive, and has a built in battery as well.   The device is a small, triangular unit with a couple of buttons, ports, and a micro...[Read More]

Review: iFrogz InTone Wireless Bluetooth Earphones

InTone are apparently iFrogz’s best selling pair of wired earphones, so for those who prefer to go wireless they now have a new version that replaces the 3.5mm audio jack with a small clip-on Bluetooth receiver. Inside the cardboard box you get the headset, a quick start guide and a Micro USB charging cable. While earphones that go right inside the ear canal are very popular, these earpieces sit o...[Read More]

Review: EC Tech’s noise cancelling bluetooth sport earbuds

  Phone accessory dealer EC Technology has another set of bluetooth earbuds for sale.They’re sport oriented in their design, and are supposed to be noise cancelling. I found their performance to be mixed, so read on to see where they succeed, and where they seem to fall short.   The design of the headphones are sporty, both in how they fit, as well as how they appear. The ones that I receive...[Read More]

Review: iClever BoostSound BTS08 Bluetooth Speaker

We’re rounding off our series of reviews covering iClever’s new BoostSound range of speakers with the BTS08. It’s bigger and more expensive than the BTS05, BTS06 and BTS07 – but is it the best? Again we have a red metal speaker grill surrounded with grippy black TPU – this time however in a rectangular box shape that has touch controls on the top and an uncovered on/o...[Read More]

Review: aLLreLi’s F5 bluetooth earphones

  Over the last few days, I’ve had the pleasure to try out a pair of bluetooth earphones from aLLreLi. There’s a couple of different ways in which this is different from most of the others that I’ve tried before. Fortunately for them, they are improvements in just about every way.   These headphones sit over the ear. aLLreLi uses a siple color scheme, of black and chrome, using p...[Read More]

Review: EC Technology’s uniquely shaped bluetooth speaker

   Sold by EC Technology, I’ve been using one of their speakers during this past week or so. This is a speaker that is designed to be portable, as it’s fairly small in its design (even compared to the other bluetooth speakers I’ve tried), and has a removable lanyard attached to it. In an odd twist, it has a bit of an unusual shape.   The appearance of this is shaped like an acorn...[Read More]

Review: iClever BoostSound BTS07 Bluetooth Speaker

Following on from our review of iClever’s BTS05 speaker, now it’s the turn of its smaller and slightly cheaper little brother. The BTS07 has a similar black and red styling, but it’s a lot slimmer and more compact (coming in at just over 6” long). Apart from the red metal speaker grill, the rest of the unit is covered in a grippy TPU material. When I lifted it out of the packaging I was surprised ...[Read More]
