Reviews of all the latest gadgets and technology
The Nest WiFi Pro was announced back in October 2022. Google chose to skip WiFi 6 and jump straight to WiFi 6E, giving this router the new 6GHz band, which provides superior throughput for short range connectivity. Like the older Nest routers, this works as a mesh system and can be paired with other Nest WiFi…
I am in the middle of reviewing the Google Nest WiFi Pro. The main reason why I bought this router was that it could work with Matter and is a Thread border router. This section of the review ended up being longer than expected due to various issues, and therefore I decided to split it…
The new EnGenius ECW130 cloud-managed access point is a new access point aimed at being an affordable way to expand existing EnGenius networks. At first glance, it is a bit of an odd access point to launch in 2023 as it is limited to the ageing WiFi 5. EnGenius already have a WiFi 6E access…
I have previously reviewed the Pinter and Pinter 2, and I have been impressed with how easy it is to brew your own beer and the quality of the beer. The Pinter 2 was only announced in August 2022, with my review back in December, so it was a bit of a surprise to me…
The Intel Arc A750 and A770 GPUs officially launched in October 2022, with Acer and Asrock being the only third-party brands to launch their own models. At the time of writing, this BiFrost Arc A770 is priced at around £400, which is about the same price as the more affordable GeForce RTX 3060 Ti cards…
The Homey smart hubs have been around for years now, and I covered the launch of the original Homey Pro back in 2019. Homey has been trying to be the panacea of smart home fragmentation long before the Matter was a thing. They are arguably the best solution for anyone using a mixture of smart…
I bought the Cycplus electric pump last year mainly to use on my car as one tyre looked flat, and it looked useful to keep in the car for emergencies. I could have bought a 12V electric car pump which would have been cheaper and likely more effective (or at least not reliant on a…
I recently reviewed the superb Anker 737 Power Bank, which is the only power bank that has 140W PD 3.1, making it suitable for the Macbook Pro 16”. I have also reviewed many new power delivery plugs that claim to do 65W, 100W or 140W power delivery and a few portable power stations with 100W…
I have previously reviewed the DH Lifelabs Sciaire Mini air purifier and ioniser and was mostly impressed by it, even though the benefits of air ionisation are a bit contentious. One of the other DH Lifelabs products is the Aaira Surface which claims to make disinfectant using none harsh chemicals. I have to admit, my…
I have reviewed a few Engwe e-bikes now, with the Engwe P26 being my most recent review last month. The Engwe T14 is something a little different from the standard foldable e-bikes I review. While it is still foldable, it is the smallest (not lightest) bike I have reviewed and is by far the cheapest….
SwitchBot made a name for itself with the SwitchBot Bot, which is an affordable smart button pressor. It is a simple yet innovative way to make dumb electronics smart. A few other random brands have tried to rip off the ideal, but no one has competed with SwitchBot for this clever little device. I have…
SwitchBot recently sent me the new SwitchBot Hub 2 to review, and they sent along some of their smart lights to test with it. I am still in the process of finalising the hub review and thought I should quickly cover the lights separately. SwitchBot LED Strip Light Specification SwitchBot Smart LED Bulb Specification Set…
