The Desk Version of the Scosche MagicMount Pro Charge Is the Wireless Charger You Need to Have
A few months ago I reviewed the Scosche MagicMount Pro Charge. It is a wireless car charger that holds your phone in place via magnets. I not only love it, but I use it every single day. The same magic is available for your desk thanks to the indoor version of the Scosche MagicMount Pro Charge.
Kingston Nucleum Gets Your MacBook Connected
Many people continue to make a big deal out of the fact that Apple began dropping ports from their notebooks to such a degree that one might think they were radioactive. The MacBook has a single USB-C port, and the rest of the line doesn’t fare much better. That’s where the Kingston Nucleum comes in. You see, connections matter.
The Jamstack Portable Amplifier: The Practice Rig You Never Knew You Needed
I’m a bit of a gear nut. My rig is filled with expensive pedals, vintage amplifiers, and more patch cables than God ever intended. My pedalboard is a source of pride. It does my heart great joy whenever I play a show and a crowd of gearheads gathers around my gear with their mouths agape.
ZVOX AccuVoice AV203 TV Speaker Review: Compact and Clear
What’s the first thing you do when you can’t understand dialogue on your TV? You turn it up, right? But doing so only makes all the sounds around the dialogue louder — which means higher volumes and you still can’t understand a darn thing. There’s another solution — voice clarity with the ZVOX AccuVoice AV203 TV Speaker.
The HyperDrive Ultimate Brings Back All of the Ports Apple Took Away
When Apple took away the basic necessities MacBook users use every day (including HDMI and USB outlets) opting to switch to USB Type C, many companies benefited from this. Consumers, however, have had to deal with dongle life ever since 2016. But not all dongles and hubs are created equally. Hyper is leading the pack in great USB Type C accessories that you should check out.

Unlocking Your Door Becomes Magical with the August Smart Lock Pro + Connect!
I once bought a car in part because the concept of a push-button ignition made me feel like I was living in the future. However, nothing feels more futuristic than the August Smart Lock + Connect I installed in my apartment recently —it’s not quite as futuristic as the magic doors in Star Trek, but it’s pretty darn close!
The Huawei Mate 20 Pro Deserves All of the Superlatives
Imagine a smartphone that manages to tick every one of your “what I want/need” boxes. I’m guessing that the Huawei Mate 20 Pro would come very close to doing just that.

Nomad Base Station Apple Watch Edition Is the New Apple-Geek’s Best Friend
I recently reviewed the Nomad Base Station Hub Edition. I love the sleek design, quality build and materials and the ability to wirelessly charge two phones and wired devices.

Eufy RoboVac 30C Is the Robot Vacuum Every Smart Home Needs
Eufy recently announced an exciting update to their powerful line of robot vacuums, the RoboVac 30C.

Gourmia 5-Quart GAF575 Air Fryer: Fried Food without Any Guilt
How in the world did I get by without ever owning an air fryer? In my defense, our kitchen space is limited, so we don’t have a lot of room for extra gadgets.
