The Nest E has been available in the US for over a year now and is both cheaper than the Nest Learning Thermostat and claims to be easier to install. With its relatively simplistic, subtle design making it appear perhaps less prominent in your living space than other smart thermostats. You can tweak the temperature using…
I post about Xiaomi a lot, and for good reason, they produce a huge number of excellent phones and electronics at bargain prices. UK availability is none existant though and with customers having to import products from sites such as Gearbest and Bandgood. Recently Xiaomi has made importing a little harder by preventing their Chinese based phones…
Bose has been busy releasing a range of new products in the past few weeks. They have introduced a new smart home speaker with Alexa built in, as well as two new Alexa, enabled soundbars with accompanying sub-woofers. The other release is the new Bose Lifestyle 550 home entertainment system which fills the gap between…
If you can’t control it with your voice is it even worth buying? Love it or loathe it, Amazon Alexa is taking over the world. What started off as a fun voice-controlled speaker has expanded to included wall clocks, microwaves and more. So, it may come as no surprise that Anker under their sub-brand Roav…
I have used plenty of car mounts in the past, most of them have been the sucky-cup style or more recently the ones that require a magnet on the back. I have never really liked the idea of air vent mounts before as they sound like they would come loose. However, Baseus sent me their wireless…
Xiaomi has been hugely popular with bargain hunters in the UK who have imported the phones from offshore companies such as Banggood / Gearbest / Aliexpress and others. These phones were originally developed for the Chinese market and normally come with the MIUI China ROM installed. Sellers then often re-install Google frameworks and apps. Users then…
4K monitors have become increasingly common and at an affordable price, but a large number of them are 27″, which is OK for gaming but for office work you have to using scaling which then reduces the screen real estate benefits of 4K. LG is starting to introduce larger 4K screens at an affordable price point…
Considering the price of DDR4 RAM I don’t think there is a huge demand for 32GB modules but I thought ZADAK’s new 32GB double height UDIMM RAM was interesting enough to post about. Currently when you buy RAM the sticks cap out at 16GB for consumer boards, allowing Ryzen and Socket 1151 boards with 4 slots to achieve 64GB…
Kuaifit is a brand I have not heard of before, and they appear to be a relatively new company targeting the sports headphone market. In order to differentiate themselves from all the other affordable sports brands on Amazon, they combine their earphones with an app that provides your training plans and fitness coaching for a…
With the dominance of Alexa and Google Assistant, Samsung SmartThings seems to have fallen on the wayside past couple of years. During Smart Home Week the SmartThings indicated they would be making a new push to promote the product and one of the reasons why it had not been more aggressively pushed was them waiting it out…
As we posted yesterday, the new Realme 2 Pro was due to launch. It looks like all the leaks and specifications were correct. Realme is the sub-brand of Oppo and functions in the same was as Honor, providing affordable phones away from flagship devices such as the Oppo Find X. Realme 2 Pro comes with a 6.3”…
Following the review of the excellent F-Secure Total, F-Secure has been kind enough to provide me 2 licences to give away to my readers. This is a 5-device licence which would normally cost £99.99 each if you were to buy it directly from F-Secure. As you will find in my review F-Secure is my favourite security suite as…
