Huawei Watch 2 (Complete Walkthrough) (Video)

I was a huge fan of the first Huawei Watch. It had Android Wear, was well-built, and looked like a normal watch so when Huawei reached out and asked me to check out their latest version the Huawei Watch 2, I said absolutely. Now, after spending a little time with it, I figured I’d do a complete walkthrough of the Huawei Watch 2 Classic for anyone interested in the device and all the things it is capable of doing. First up, the watch itself is larger than the original Huawei Watch, in fact, it’s pretty hefty, but along with that […]

OnePlus 5T vs OnePlus 5: What’s Actually Different? (Video)

OnePlus just announced their latest flagship the OnePlus 5T just 5 months after the OnePlus 5. The big questions for most people then are what are the actual differences between the 5 and 5T? Is it worth getting the OnePlus 5T over the 5? Etc. At the event for the new device recently, I asked around to confirm exactly what the differences are. Here’s what I found. What do you guys think? Is anyone mad about the 5T so quickly after the 5 coming out? Let me know!

Best Rugged Phone Under $300 (Video)

I did a video a while back on the Cat S60. An android phone created with the adventurous in mind (I even ended up taking it to a certain festival in the middle of the Nevada desert to test it out). It was a great phone actually, but the price for it is about $861. So what if you just need a rugged phone but don’t want to empty the piggy bank to buy it. Maybe even be able to keep your normal, more fragile smartphone, and buy another rugged phone to just swap to when you get the urge

Best Sounding Truly Wireless Headphones (Video)

Bose is a name in the audio world that I’m sure I don’t need to introduce. They’ve been around forever and chances are some audiophile you know has at least one pair, even if they’re just the noise canceling ones that you see on every single flight. Thing is they’ve made a ton of wired and wireless headphones, but they’ve never made a truly wireless pair of headphones. Until now. These are the Bose SoundSport Free. Now, I’ve used plenty of other truly wireless headphones over the last year or two, from the oh-so-popular Air Pods to the IconX’s

The RAZER Phone (Video)

If you’ve never heard of Razer, they started out making computer mice purpose built for gamers then transitioned into headsets, gaming laptops, and more. “For Gamers, by Gamers” Sometime in 2011, well before their super-popular Razer Blade, Blade Pro, and Blade Stealth lineups were out, they announced at CES they were working on a prototype call the Switchblade. Min-Liang, the CEO of Razer, grabbed top talent from Apple, HP and Dell to help developer a portable gaming device. The small laptop (essentially) featured the state of the art Intel Atom processor at the time, and a clever keyboard comprised of

Gear IconX Complete Walkthrough (Video)

Along side the Gear Sport, Samsung launched another fitness-minded accessory–the sequel to their original wireless earbuds the Gear IconX 2018 edition. The new earbuds look very much like the old ones and come in pink, black, and gray and come in a matching case. The case itself is how you charge the earbuds and is also a portable battery pack capable of giving the headphones and extra full charge, but the earbuds are now rated to give a much improved 5 hours of playback over Bluetooth versus the 3 hours from last years model. In addition to that, they now

Samsung Gear Sport Complete Walkthrough (Video)

Samsung just launched the new Gear Sport and I got a little hands-on time with it and think I’ve figured it out at this point so here’s my complete walkthrough of the device for anyone curious. The watch is aimed at fitness (hence the Sport) and looks the part fitting somewhere between the bulkier smartwatches I’ve seen but not quite as slim and sleek as the analog watches I’d usually wear out. It comes in two colors, black and blue which are the color of the metal casing, but also the band that comes with the device (but you can

Huawei Mate 10 and Mate 10 Pro (Video)

In June and July, Huawei, for the first time ever, passed Apple in terms of global smartphone sales share, making them the second largest handset manufacturer in the world (Samsung is number one for those keeping score). Now, these number don’t include the very important Q4 when Apple announces and generally sells the majority of their devices, but regardless, it’s no small feat. The funny thing is, when I tell most people I know about it, they go, “Who’s Huawei?” A lot of the reason for that comes down to the fact that the vast majority of those sales are

Razer Blade Stealth 2017 Review: It Finally Deserves Its Name

I reviewed the Razer Blade and its smaller sibling, the Razer Stealth, not too long ago and frankly, I loved them both, albeit in different ways. As someone who edits video in Premiere, the Blade is a compact powerhouse and the Stealth is a super thin ultra-portable that’s made out of premium materials with an attention to detail that only nerdy gaming-obsessed engineers could have put together. If there was one comment I had for Razer at the end of both of those videos, it was that I wished they were just a little less gamer-looking. I don’t game on

How to Turn Your Watch into a Smartwatch (Video)

So what if you want the features of a smart watch but you don’t want to actually go out and buy a smartwatch? Maybe you have a watch that you already love or maybe you don’t need all the features of a fancy touchscreen smartwatch and don’t want to spend the money on one.

How to Automatically Digitize Anything You Write on a Whiteboard (Video)

One of the big problems with whiteboards in an office is that, unlike other digital drawing solutions, it isn’t saveable, it isn’t shareable, it’s not collaborative. In a nutshell, it’s good at showing a room an idea, but other than that, it’s super inefficient. Now, having faith that technology has to be able to help this archaic means of communication, I went in search of something to help. And, you know what, I think I found it. This is the eBeam Smartmarker kit. The concept behind this device is that it can scan anything you write on a whiteboard (or

Best Wireless Bluetooth Headphones Under $40?

I was looking for a wireless Bluetooth headset to wear while riding a bike. Sick of the wires and earbuds constantly getting in the way and falling out, I figured I’d check Amazon for an inexpensive option. What I found, was the Senso Bluetooth Headphones. Check out the headphones on Amazon here. Now, they happen to not only be the number one best seller on Amazon in the Bluetooth Headset category but they also have over 19,000 reviews with a 4.5 star average, which is insane. On top of that, they’re under $40. With all that, they have to be

LG V30 First Look: The Creator’s Phone?

With last year’s G5 being aimed a bit more at the mid-market and going with the concept of mods the V20 launched about 6 months later became the go to LG phone for the higher-end audience last year. LG might have returned to making the G6 a flagship device earlier this year (and it’s a great phone in it’s own right, check out my review for that if you’re interested), but a lot of the V20 users from last year have been waiting for the V series successor instead. Well, that day has finally come and it could have been

First Ever Multiplayer Outdoor AR Shooter Game

Crate drops, different guns, ammo, health, armor, airstrikes. Freakin’ airstrikes. The new AR game from SkyRocket toys called Recoil has all the makings of a real-life “Call of Duty”. The company sent me the starter set and I did what anyone on the internet would do–I unboxed it, grabbed a friend and tried it out. Check out the video below. Allied Content: This Video was Sponsored by Recoil (but it is something I thought was interesting to talk about or I wouldn’t have done the video 🙂 Hope you enjoy it!)
