We’re in the middle of summer, which is the height of deck time and entertaining. While it is hot, the evenings are nice to chill outside with friends. The 55″ Sylvox 2024 Deck Pro QLED 2.0 Outdoor TV with Google TV is the perfect companion. Sylvox sent me one to try out, and it has transformed our deck into a fantastic entertainment space.

Through Gear Diary, I get to review all kinds of unique products. Many of those products have become essential to my everyday carry items collection. That’s especially true with products from WaterField. I’m currently out of the country, and the WaterField Essential Crossbody I reviewed years ago is part of my everyday carry.

I was very excited at the mere WHIFF that Ghost of Tsushima would be coming out on PC after an initial console-only release. Many consider this game a resounding masterpiece that sets the standard for any open-world sandbox games that come after. It’s admittedly quite good, actually great in some ways. But in my opinion, it is nowhere near perfect, and I’ll try to explain why while hiding from the lynch mob under my bed. Don’t tell them I’m there.
My son has a name for when 3D prints fail. One time is a fluke; twice is unfortunate, but if they fail more than twice, they become what he calls “cursed prints.” One of the main reasons a print can fail is if the filament is too wet from ambient humidity. So, I was extremely excited to test out the SUNLU FilaDryer S4. Did drier filaments and uncursed prints await us?
XGIMI projectors offer an outstanding visual experience that combines innovative technology with superior image quality for a cinema-like experience at home. I have an XGIMI HORIZON Ultra in my living room, and I love its picture clarity, even when displaying at 100+ inches. It sounds great without a soundbar, but if you add one, it’s next-level. If you’re considering upgrading your home theater or perhaps looking for a portable projector that is more easily moved, XGIMI Prime Day Deals, good July 16th through July 22nd, make this the perfect time to give one a try.
Using disposable plastic tableware is an environmental faux pas; it’s made from non-renewable resources, takes forever to decompose, and often pollutes our oceans and harms wildlife. Plus, it contains harmful chemicals like BPA and PFAS that can leach into your food, posing health risks. And let’s not forget the economic costs of cleaning up plastic waste. Opting for eco-friendly alternatives, like the compostable plant-based options from Repurpose—a company founded by a mom with a vision for a greener future—helps the planet while keeping your summer parties carefree with easy cleanup.

I was recently in London where I was able to enjoy several long days of sightseeing after an event. I knew I’d be short on charging opportunities while Kev and I were out and about, but I didn’t want to have to carry an external battery pack everywhere. With the mophie juice pack on my iPhone 15 Pro Max, my phone stayed charged, and I didn’t have to carry anything extra because my phone case was also my extended battery pack! If you’ve ever wished for a way to stay charged on the go without having to carry anything extra,…
If you’ve ever used a robotic vacuum cleaner in a home with pets and/or long-haired occupants, you’ve likely dealt with hair-wrapped bush rollers and random blockages. Poor navigation and frequent dustbin emptying can also create robot vac pain points. If you’re nodding along, you’ll want to check out the Narwal Freo X Ultra. It features 8200Pa suction power, an all-in-one base station that automates mop care, and a zero-hair-tangling brush for efficient cleaning. It’s also equipped with tri-laser navigation and LiDAR 4.0 to avoid obstacles and clean thoroughly. I’ve put mine through hell; here’s how it performed.
I have a real love/hate relationship with most true wireless earbuds. They’re great for when I’m sitting in one spot but tend to pop out of my ears at inopportune times while I’m working out. I’ve tried and loved Skullcandy‘s active earbuds in the past, and they’re leaning into the need for more secure true wireless earbuds (TWE) with a major release of their all-new Skullcandy Active Collection!

Amazon Prime Day 2024 is just around the corner, and Laifen, one of my favorite personal care brands, has some excellent deals on its highly rated Wave Electric Toothbrushes and Swift High-Speed Hair Dryers. Kev and I each use a Laifen Wave, and we think (and my dentist concurs) that these electric toothbrushes do an excellent job. My son-in-law, Jordan, is a professional hairstylist; he uses the Laifen Swift on his clients and loves how quietly and powerfully the blowdryer performs.
Urban Armor Gear (UAG) makes smartphone cases that offer exceptional protection in even the toughest conditions. They were the first major case brand to offer products certified to Military Standards, the first case brand to send an iPhone 6 into space (it survived), and they were the first brand to test their cases’ strength by throwing their phones out of a vehicle going 120 mph (they also survived)! They’ve expanded their offerings to include laptops, tablets, backpacks, and more, and for their July 4th sale, you can get 20% off sitewide — even on the new limited edition UAG Monarch…
In early 2023, the German company Cherry joined forces with Swedish brand Xtrfy to become Cherry Xtrfy and now offers a varied line of products, including gaming mice, keyboards, headsets, and, most recently, microphones. The Cherry Xtrfy Ngale X microphone ($189.00) represents the top of the line, which also includes the Ngale R Microphone ($119.00) as well as the UM series, which includes the UM 9.0 Pro RGB ($149.99), the UM 6.0 Advanced ($109.99) and the UM 3.0 ($79.99).

If you’re of a certain age, you’ll remember that PEMDAS was a mnemonic that many of us learned in Math class that stood for doing equations in a certain order, namely parentheses, exponents, multiplication, division, addition, and then subtraction. We’ve all seen those posts on social media showing how the calculators on smartphones don’t understand the order of operations; apparently, they were absent from class on the day that PEMDAS was explained.
I don’t always sleep well. Every fitness tracker I’ve ever tested has given me poor marks for being flail-y while I sleep. All this was compounded by having to sleep on my back after surgery last year, which led me to realize I needed to up my pillow game. The Butterfly Sleep Pillow promises to be the pillow for any kind of sleeper, so of course, I had to give them a true torture test by using it for my rather disjointed sleep experience!
