The Dollar Shave Club helped revolutionise the saving industry offering good quality low-cost razor blades delivered to your door on a regular basis each month. In July, last year it was bought out by Unilever for $1 billion in cash. So, it is no surprise that the subscription model has been adopted by many new…
The Blue Sadie headphones I reviewed last week set the new standard for headphones that I have reviewed, their sound quality was superb and the built-in amplifier was surprisingly useful. Priced at around £389.99 they were not something that is going to appeal to the masses, regardless of how good they are. Today I have…
I have always been a little sceptical about the robot vacuum craze, I have always assumed their dust storage capacity would be annoying and is it really any easier to use than just quickly getting the vacuum out? So, I was curious to try one out when offered an Ecovacs Deebot M88. The Ecovacs Deebot…
I have reviewed a lot of the FRITZ!Box products now, this German company may not be a household name in the UK but they dominate DSL hardware market in the EU. I have always found their hardware to be excellent and the new FRITZ!Box 7590 is their latest flagship offering. The FRITZ!Box 7590 isn’t actually…

Blue is not a brand that I would normally associate with premium headphones, but they do have strong credentials with audio in the form of their universally praised microphones. Their entry into the headphone market is an interesting one, as they are jumping straight into the upper mid and high-end market. Their flagship product called…
Recently, Barclays undertook a piece of research to identify attitudes toward smart home technology across the UK. This research has been carried out twice in the past two years showing how public opinion towards smart homes has changed over the past 2 years. The 2015 survey consisted of 4,370 adults and the 2017 survey was…
After being impressed with the ad blocking functionality of my F-Secure Sense I came across a popular piece of software called Pi-hole that acts as your homes DNS server and blocks advertising requests. It is designed to run on most Debian-based distro’s and it is specifically lightweight enough to run on a Raspberry Pi, some…
We reviewed the excellent NextBase 412GW dashcam in November last year. The 512GW is the model above it and it is supposed to replace the 512G offering a higher resolution and built in WiFI. In terms of features it is more closely related to the 412GW I previously reviewed but with a better image sensor…
I love my HS110 plug sockets from TP-Link, they are affordable, easy to use and provide energy monitoring. So much so I have bought 3 of them, and will probably buy more. I have them set up so my office powers up in the morning and my PC auto boots on power. One I use…
