Everyone’s Ears Are Different, and Even Earprint Headphones Knows This!

If you are sick of having your headphones not fit your personality and compromise your listening experience as a result, you might want to check out Even’s Earprint Earphones. I had the opportunity to review the Even Headphones over the past few weeks, and they are certainly the most unique headphones on the market, and that’s a GOOD thing. Most headphones on the market try to give you the listening experience that they want you to hear, but what if my way of listening is different than yours?

Is My iPhone 6 Plus Obsolete? Why Do I Want the iPhone 7?

As a user of the iPhone 6 Plus the past two years, I came to the conclusion I’m well due for an upgrade on my Apple Smartphone, and if you have been stuck using the same iPhone since September 2014’s models, you might want to consider upgrading to the iPhone 7. Here’s why. Over the course of the last 24 months, the iPhone 6 Plus has been not only my daily driver but the best iPhone I’ve honestly had since the iPhone 4s, my first ever iPhone. Typically not a fan of “S” model iPhones, I told myself I would never…

UrbanEar’s Sweatproof Headphones Get Rid of Adjusting While Working Out

For a few months, I would purposely wear the Plattan ADV Wireless headphones from UrbanEars in the gym, but I longed for a true pair of workout-friendly pair of cans from the company, so when the company sent over their UrbanEar Hellas, I didn’t even have to open up the packaging before knowing I found my new workout headphones!

There Are a Lot of Cords Needed for Tablo’s Cord-Cutting DVR System

Over the past few weeks I’ve had the opportunity to test out and review Tablo’s $179.99 Over the Air DVR Tuner, and there are certainly a lot of things to like, as well as some minor hurdles. One thing I’ve noticed that a lot of people are attempting to do is cord-cut, so I figured it wouldn’t hurt to try it myself. Currently I still have Verizon FiOS, however in my guest bedroom, when people come over, they are stuck using the Roku I installed. While its great, what if you’d like to be able to watch live tv, especially with…

Creative’s Sound BlasterX H7 Gaming Headset Is in a League of Its Own!

After just reviewing Creative’s Sound BlasterX H5 Gaming Headset last year, they sent over the update to those, in the BlasterX H7s, continuing their goal of being the best gaming headset on the market today!

Being someone who takes their gaming pretty seriously, especially online, a good headset is VERY hard to find. So let’s start with a few specs on the creative Sound BlasterX H7s: Audio ProcessingBlasterX Acoustic Engine Pro Headset Connector Type3.5mm Stereo Input…

1More’s Triple Driver In-Ear Headphones Are Affordable for an Audiophile

There are not many more things I like in the world other than a good pair of in-ear headphones, and over the past few months I’ve truly lacked in that department, which lead me to going wireless or using over ear headphones.
