Full disclosure: my everyday machine is a MacBook Pro from 2015. One of the 13 inch versions, middle-of-the-road specs, and it gets the job done. I’m mostly using it to browse and write, and sometimes my wife uses it to work on photo editing in Photoshop when she would prefer to work from the couch…

QUICK REVIEW: The NOMAD Universal Cable Is The Best Cable
There’s nothing worse than knowing you have the cable you need, but not knowing exactly where it is — and when you reach into your cable/junk drawer to find what you’re looking for, you get faked out by all the other tangled up cables. NOMAD has solved part of this issue. I guess if you lose…
REVIEW: The Amazon Echo Dot (2nd Generation) Is Neat… But Worth It?
I had been eyeing the Amazon Echo for a while, but couldn’t swing the near-$200 price tag for something I — and the household — didn’t really need. Nobody actually needs this. It is cool though, and it lights up like a tiny stationary robot with a gentle voice. I just wish all technology would be in the…
QUICK REVIEW: Peel’s iPhone 7 Plus Screen Protector Is An Exciting Idea That Doesn’t Hold Up
Guys, when I saw Peel’s iPhone 7 Plus Glass Screen Protector, I was in love. It follows the curve of the iPhone’s glass, whereas most glass screen protectors look like they don’t fit because of how far they are from the phone’s edge. Not only that, but the installation video got me super in love….
QUICK REVIEW: The Peel Super-Thin iPhone Case Is Both Too Thin And Perfectly Thin

REVIEW: The Huawei MediaPad M3 Impresses On All Fronts
Look. I’m not going to mince words here: if I was in the market for a tablet, I would save hundreds of dollars and go with Huawei’s MediaPad M3. I’m not in the market for one, though, because my family has an iPad 2 and a $50 Kindle Fire tablet that I bought my 4-year-old daughter….
QUICK REVIEW: The Caudabē Sheath iPhone 7 Plus Case Is Close To Perfection
Holy jeez you guys, Caudabē might have done it. They might have made the perfect phone case. Now, hear me out — I meant the perfect phone case for me. I’m not into wild designs or colorful art on my phone cases, but you might be, and that’s OK. This case is the definition of minimalist while…
REVIEW: The iPhone 7 Plus Gets The Job Done, Is A Little Boring
Wow, yeah, I know. The iPhone 7 / iPhone 7 Plus came out last year. Well guess what? This site didn’t exist last year and I need content. So if you’ve been on the fence about upgrading, and you’re an average person who uses their phone for average things (and even better yet, a parent),…
