Every once in a while, I lose track of a company, and when it comes to Spracht, it has been four years since my last report with the BluNote + Chat. Spracht is one of those companies that makes a lot of Bluetooth headsets and speakers, but their products seem targeted toward those in business. These are the Konf-X Buds, and I have no idea how to pronounce them. The Konf-X … [Read more...] about Spracht Konf-X Buds In-Ear Headset

Our Review of the Jimu Robot Tankbot from UBTECH
In case you are wondering, this is a sequel review to our review of the Buzzbot and Muttbot. This is the same robot building kit from Jimu Robot from UBTECH, and you can read my review of that at the link, as well as my comparison to Lego. The Tankbot is one of those robot kits where I am surprised that all the pieces that are in the kit are used, with only a few … [Read more...] about Our Review of the Jimu Robot Tankbot from UBTECH
Gumdrop Cases for the Holidays 4: DropTech iPhone 7 Case
Okay, this is the last review of a product from Gumdrop Cases. This time, it is the DropTech Series for the iPhone 7, and it is different than the other ones that I have reviewed. Unlike my first three cases that I have reviewed, this Gumdrop Case is made for the smartphone. I was thinking that it would have that tire tread look to it, but it actually is a transparent … [Read more...] about Gumdrop Cases for the Holidays 4: DropTech iPhone 7 Case
We Three Kingston Part 3: HyperX Cloud Revolver
By the way, if you haven't caught the pun I'm trying to make in these titles, think "We Three Kings". I figured since I was reviewing Kingston products, it kind of works. Anyway, this is the last of the Kingston products that we will be reviewing this year with the HyperX Cloud Revolver. I might as well get to the comparison of the HyperX Cloud Stinger. I will say that … [Read more...] about We Three Kingston Part 3: HyperX Cloud Revolver
Gumdrop Cases for the Holidays 3: Hideaway iPad Pro 9.7 Case
So, here's another great case for the iPad Pro 9.7 inch version from our friends at Gumdrop cases. It is something that I have reviewed for the 12.9 inch version, and it honestly isn't that much different. One of the things that I like about the Hideaway series (I guess I will call it that) is how the stand can extend for video content viewing. I don't remember if the … [Read more...] about Gumdrop Cases for the Holidays 3: Hideaway iPad Pro 9.7 Case
We Three Kingston Part 2: HyperX Cloud Stinger
Now that we are on our second Kingston product, this is where I would like to discuss the first of Kingston's gaming headset with the HyperX Cloud Stinger. Now, this is billed as "an ideal headset for gamers looking for lightweight comfort", and I am going to agree with that. Seriously, it is very light compared to some of the gaming headsets that I have reviewed in the … [Read more...] about We Three Kingston Part 2: HyperX Cloud Stinger
Gumdrop Cases for the Holidays 2: DropTech Microsoft Surface
Okay, now that we are in a series about Gumdrop Cases, it is time to talk about another one. This is the impact resistant, dual-layer silicone/ABS construction DropTech Microsoft Surface Pro 4 Case. I'll go ahead and say that it has that clean tire tread look that is characteristic to Gumdrop Cases. I'll also go ahead and say that the design is very similar to the … [Read more...] about Gumdrop Cases for the Holidays 2: DropTech Microsoft Surface
We Three Kingston Part 1: MobileLite Wireless G3
Okay, we will be writing about three products from Kingston, and two of them are headphone related. The other one is the MobileLite Wireless G3, which is a product that is somewhat difficult to describe. The MobileLite Wireless G3 is made to be two things. I will start with a personal cloud. I talked about this with Apollo Cloud from Promise Technology. The personal … [Read more...] about We Three Kingston Part 1: MobileLite Wireless G3
Gumdrop Cases for the Holidays 1: DropTech Case + Hand Strap for iPad Pro 9.7
Okay, it is time to talk about Gumdrop Cases, which I have reviewed many times in the past. The last time that I talked about them, it was an iPad Pro 12.9 inch product, this time, it is the DropTech Case + HandStrap for the iPad Pro 9.7. I will have to say that the case for the iPad Pro 9.7 has what I would have to call "a Gumdrop case" look. It feels like a tire tread, … [Read more...] about Gumdrop Cases for the Holidays 1: DropTech Case + Hand Strap for iPad Pro 9.7
Whoosh3D WhooshVR Cardboard
I really did a review of the Whoosh3D screen protector and maker of 3D on smartphones and tablets. Today, I am going to do a report on a VR viewer from Whoosh 3D. Just to let you know, most of the time when I write about a product, even one that I am reviewing, I usually take what I see from the main site and put it in my own words. This time, I didn't really have … [Read more...] about Whoosh3D WhooshVR Cardboard
Nomad Ultra Rugged Battery Cable
Well, I think I am through reviewing leather products from Nomad, so I guess I will review...another Nomad product? Yes, this is an Ultra Rugged Cable, and it comes in four forms. I'll talk about the one that I was sent to reviwe, the Ultra Rugged Battery Cable. Unlike the other cables, this one has a 2350 mAh battery. Since this is a battery cable with a Lightning … [Read more...] about Nomad Ultra Rugged Battery Cable
Sengled Pulse Solo, a Light Bulb/Speaker
Here's a really interesting product from Sengled known as the Pulse Solo, which has a function as cool as it's name. It is essentially a light bulb that acts as a Bluetooth speaker. Not just any type of Bluetooth speaker, but an integrated JBL speaker. It has 3-watt speakers, on two sides of the bulb. All you need to do is just screw it in, and you can hear the tones as … [Read more...] about Sengled Pulse Solo, a Light Bulb/Speaker
Nomad Leather Case for the iPhone
Well, I have already reviewed two Nomad products with the Charging Wallet and the Apple Watch Strap. I figured that I might as well tackle one last one before Christmas with the Leather Case for the iPhone. Since I have reviewed a lot of cases in the past few days (and weeks), I might as well just say what is different about the the case: it is made of leather. I am told … [Read more...] about Nomad Leather Case for the iPhone
Our Review of the Jimu Robot BuzzBot and MuttBot Kit from UBTECH
As someone who has written a book about Lego Technic and Lego Mindstorms, I was very pleased to review the Jimu Robot Buzzbot and MuttBot Kit from UBTECH. There is going to be a lot of comparison made to Lego, but please keep in mind that the Jimu Robot kits are definitely their own thing. It's like those people who think that Star Trek and Babylon 5 are the same, when they … [Read more...] about Our Review of the Jimu Robot BuzzBot and MuttBot Kit from UBTECH
UAG for Christmas, Part 3: Cases for both the Apple iPad Pro, 9.7 and 12.9 inch versions
Well, this is the last UAG product that I will be reviewing today, and it is quite a great one with case for both the iPad Pro, the 9.7 inch version and the 12.9 inch version. I'll go ahead and start with the case for the iPad Pro 9.7-inch version. The case is described as being "Frogskin" non-slip grip. I think that they got the non-slip grip part right, but something … [Read more...] about UAG for Christmas, Part 3: Cases for both the Apple iPad Pro, 9.7 and 12.9 inch versions
