Reviews of all the latest gadgets and technology
I have previously reviewed the Garmin Edge 1000 which is arguably the best bike computer on the market, or at least it was until the 1030 came out. However, at an RRP of £499, it is worth about 50% of my actual bike and is a bit over the top for my needs and most…
As a small business owner, myself I had always stressed about accounting, back when I started out I used PC based software that was clunky and confusing to use. I am also not the most organised when it comes to the accounting side of things, so when the yearly accounts were due it was a…
I used to be an obese heavy drinker, and since getting fit, I always have obsessed with monitoring my health being paranoid that my previous lifestyle choices have caused chronic damage. I love all fitness tech and love to keep track of stats, so keeping an eye on various health markers is something I find…
Recently I have covered a lot of cheap Chinese brands that are churning out Android phones. These often require buying them from grey import sites such as Gearbest, and even if you get them from Amazon, the warranty and product support are always in question. If you are looking for a more reliable brand, then…
Netgear has established themselves as one of the market leaders in smart home security cameras with their Arlo range. I have previously reviewed the Netgear Arlo Q which is the indoor based camera from Netgear. The utterly wire-free battery-powered indoor/outdoor version is where they established themselves though. The original Arlo must have been one of…
The iDual lighting range is a range of LEDs and bulbs that offer remote control and unlimited colour and brightness adjustments. In a world with Philips Hue these are a bit retro, there is no smart connection of any form, you control them via remote control. The iDual Dahlia Table Lamp is a spherical lamp…
Another power bank from one of our favourite accessory companies Aukey on Amazon. I have found they always make reliable, well-built products at a decent price. There isn’t a massive amount of variation or innovation with power banks; a battery is a battery after all. However, this one does have a few stand out features…
I have already covered several excellent budget Chinese phones available from sites such as Gearbest, or quite often for a little bit more via Amazon. The Xiaomi MI A1 is the current cream of the crop, it might not be as pretty as some of the lesser known imports but the build quality is exceptional,…
Amazon is an excellent source of cheap alternatives to expensive branded smart technology. I particularly love the fitness trackers that use the Very Smart Pro app. Amazon is also a safe way to get cheap Chinese Android phones where you have the backing of Amazon customer service. I thought I would broaden my horizons and…
I have reviewed some excellent Acer laptops recently from the paper thing 2-in-1 Spin 7 to the wallet-friendly Acer Chromebook R11. The Acer Swift 1 sites in the middle ground, being an affordable lightweight full Windows 10 notebook. The model I was sent is the SF13-31 model which comes with the following specifications There are…
The dLAN® 1200 triple+ is the latest powerline company from Devolo. Powerline adapters are a fantastic option for people wanted fast and stable connections between their router and connected device without the mess or difficulty installing ethernet cable. With Powerline, the adaptors use the electrical wiring without our home to establish a physical connection, similar…
The Echo Spot was finally released in the UK this week and can either been seen as a budget mini Echo Show or very expensive Echo Dot with a screen. Does it find a comfortable middle ground between the two devices? While the Echo Show is large and ugly, the Echo Spot can only be…
