LG StandbyMe Go

Read More

A new addition to LG’s “StandbyMe” line… It’s a 27″ touchscreen TV in a suitcase. I wonder who needs this and why?

Anker Power Bank Hub

Read More

This is an interesting idea. Essentially, it’s a wall charger that doubles as a sort of hub for your power banks. Although I’m sort of unsure about the use case, the idea speaks to me in someway… I wanna try it.

Dope ass iPhone case from the guys at Dango. They are mostly known for their hard wallets, but this? Really well done.

Nothing Phone 2

Read More

I played with a Nothing Phone 1 for a month or so and found it to be a beautiful piece of hardware limited by its Android based OS. On the surface and initially, the “Nothing OS” skin did a great job of hiding its Android roots and presenting a distraction free environment. But, the longer I used it the more glaring its limitations (caused by Android mostly) became.

Apparently, many of these short-comings have been addressed in Nothing Phone 2. It’s still running Android, but Nothing has gone to further lengths to hide that fact to the end user. Early reviews are calling it “amazing.”

Amazing or not, if I couldn’t be in the Apple ecosystem and needed a phone… Well, this is the phone I’d carry. No question.

Eight Sleep

Read More

Eight Sleep is essentially a water cooled and heated mattress cover that allows you to massively regulate the temperature of your bed in two zones. On top of that, it’s a high-tech sleep analyzer. I want to test this thing bad.

Expensive, but how much time do you spend sleeping?

The Go 3

GoPro stopped innovating due to financial issues. Insta360 took the reigns and the Go 3 is the result… Super interesting.

iPad Solution

The Magic Keyboard from Apple is uber expensive, but also the best solution for making your iPad function more like a laptop. It does, however, have two shortfalls:

  1. It provides very little protection to your iPad.
  2. In order to return the iPad back to tablet mode, you have to ditch the keyboard all together – leaving your iPad entirely naked.

I’ve found an interesting solution. Pitaka makes a super slim carbon fiber case that allows your tablet to be covered while in or out of the magic keyboard. On top of that, it adds wireless charging by way of pretty strong magnets. And with that, you can use Pitaka’s iPad stand for desktop applications.

I haven’t tried these products yet, but I’m tempted…

Nuphy Air60

Read More

The past three or four years, I’ve typed using only self-built keyboards. If I build it myself, I can use the materials and switches that feel right to me. Plus, I like over-building with quality through the roof. This, of course, tends to leave me with heavy typing apparatuses that are hardly thoughtful towards travel.

So… This summer I decided to test the Nuphy line of keyboards. Thus far, I have only positive things to say. While not built like my tanks back at the home office, the typing experience is still excellent… and you can’t beat the minimal form factor.
