If you’ve thought “the T20 is amazing, but it’s kind of hard to commit to a wired-only headset especially as the 3.5mm jack fades away”, apparently you’re not alone (and I wouldn’t blame you). But, there is now a cake-and-eat-it-too solution to this dilemma, because the T20 is now a wired, and wireless, you-buy-one-thing-and-get-to-swap-cables-for-how-you-want-to-use-it bundle of sonic goodness. This is […]

I installed a Slickwrap clear matte skin on my OnePlus 7 Pro to reduce slipperiness, but after only two weeks it’s already messed up to the point where I need to remove it. Really ought to be more durable.

Have a Roku, an over-the-air (OTA) HDHomeRun tuner, and frustration about the inability to use the two together? SD just solved your gripe with the just announced BETA for live TV viewing on the platform. Bad news is that DVR isn’t there yet, but the great news is that they’re working on it. So like many things, a touch of […]

If I were more a drag-a-cooler-somewhere kind of guy, and the price was closer to impulse territory (and I hadn’t sworn off crowd funding random stuff ;)) I would totally be all over the GoSun Chill battery/solar powered cooler. It’s such a neat idea, and if it actually works, a great way to ensure that your food doesn’t end up […]

The OnePlus 7 Pro is the most expensive OnePlus device to date, but its premium features and feel make it completely worth it. Top end specs are only really let down by…. well, nothing. There are a few early phone issues, but with two updates already issued in the short time I’ve had it I’m confident that OnePlus will sort […]

We had a quick peek at the HDHR Servio ($150) & Scribe, in Duo ($200) & Quatro ($250) forms, at CES, so it was only a matter of time. And here they are, at least in pre-order format. They are BestBuy exclusive (for now), so you’ll need to head on over to their site to do the business. Expected to […]

In many ways Zigbee is technically superior to Z-Wave, but the lack of guaranteed compatibility with Zigbee devices is one of the main barriers to its adoption in the home. Their “All Hubs Initiative” could sort that. If it does, Silicon Labs should be worried, very worried. The Zigbee Alliance Announces the ‘All Hubs Initiative’ Driven by Leading Ecosystems to […]

Details are still a bit thin on the ground, but Kwikset is bringing out a Wi-Fi enabled deadbolt lock. Wi-Fi is obviously a much lower bar to entry than a proper home automation hub/system, so I can see why they are doing it. But, if it’s just an isolated lock, with no chance of integration with other systems (even the […]
Read moreMore colors = more realistic photos. So just as HDR (properly applied) makes for a better viewing experience, I’m happy to see that Android will be receiving wide color photography with the next major release of the OS. The application is likely to be small at first, only one of the devices that I viewed the photos included in the […]

When it comes to the 3.5″ jack I would like to be one of those “from my cold…” type of people, but frankly I love new tech too much to hang on to the old stuff, even when it works so damn well. Lightning and USB-C headphones solve two of the biggest issues I have with the euthanization of the […]
