Reviews of all the latest gadgets and technology
The Reolink RLC-823A 16X was launched earlier this year, and as the name suggests, it is essentially the same as the existing Reolink RLC-823A, but the zoom has been increased to 16x vs 5x. This is the most expensive camera Reolink does. I would say that it is quite a niche camera as the zoom…
GameSir has been on a roll with recent controller launches. Back in July, I reviewed the GameSir G7 SE, and in May, I reviewed the GameSir T4 Kaleid. The GameSir T4 Cyclone and Pro models are the latest multi-platform controller. The controller has many of the features used on the GameSir T4 Kaleid, but you…
Following on from my previous reviews of the Nitecore MH12 Pro and EDC27 EDC flashlight, my last Nitecore review is for the NU25 UL headlamp. This light has a bit more personal appeal to myself and my partner compared to the flashlight, as we are both keen runners. My partner works 9-5 and has been…
The Xiaomi 13T was announced at the end of September alongside the Xiaomi 13T Pro and the new Xiaomi Watch 2 Pro WearOS smartwatch. Priced at £549, the Xiaomi 13T is a compelling choice for anyone looking for a high quality phone without the expense associated with flagship phones. In particular, this phone applies to…
Following on from my review of the excellent Nitecore MH12 Pro flashlight, I have also been using the Nitecore EDC27. This is a slim flashlight that’s designed for everyday carry (EDC). It is a similar price to the Nitecore EDC27, but its flat design and built-in clip makes it more convenient to carry around with…
I reviewed the superb Eufy Security Floodlight Cam 2 Pro two years ago, which now seems to be called the Eufy Floodlight Camera S330. I continued to use it until recently, and it has been my favourite floodlight camera up until now. Recently, Eufy announced the new Eufy Floodlight Camera E340, which is a dual-lens…
I have previously been impressed with some of the surveillance cameras from Annke. The Annke NC400 that I reviewed back in 2021 was a highlight, providing true colour night vision for under £100. Reolink, who I consistently praise, have only just released their first ColorX 4MP colour night vision. The Annke NightChroma NCPT500 appears to…
While many brands out there have smart plug sockets, there are only a handful of options for smart power strips. TP-Link Kasa is the best-known brand that has a smart power strip, with the KP303, which is a three-plug strip and two USB-A ports. Many other brands are random companies that produce strips which use…
I originally reviewed the 1MORE E1001 triple drive earbuds back in 2017 when wired earbuds were much more common. While true wireless earbuds dominate the market, many audiophiles refuse to give up on their wired earbuds due to the improved audio quality that a wire provides vs the compression of Bluetooth. 1MORE is one of…
Acer is best known for its laptops, monitors and desktop PCs and more recently, they have entered the GPU market with the Acer Predator BiFrost Intel Arc A770. However, they also produce quite a lot of other products, including some random things like the Acer Acerpure Air Pro P2 and the Acer ebii E-bike. They…
I have written extensively about IoT and smart home technology over the years, but almost all of this content has been with a focus on consumers. Smart home tech may be useful in making our lives a little bit easier, but the commercial application of IoT can have significant benefits for businesses. Disruptive Technologies is…
Flashlights are not something I have written about extensively in the past. But, like all tech, there is a huge range of options out there covering every possible requirement and a passionate community of flashlight fans. One popular brand is Nitecore, which was established back in 2007 and produces a wide range of flashlights that…
