It’s no secret that HTC took a very long time to update the HTC U12+ to Android 9.0 Pie. The HTC U12+ was release in July of 2018 and it’s been over a year that the phone has been sitting on Android 8.0. It wasn’t until this past August that it finally got the Pie … Continue reading
The Xperia 1 is Sony’s latest and greatest smartphone right now. It’s got all the latest specs and features the only 4K, 21:9 ratio display on the market. The Xperia 1 is fast and responsive, has dual speakers, and did I mention the gorgeous screen? While the Xperia 1 is Sony’s best phone to date, … Continue reading
Tech can be a funny thing. Sometimes they work great when you first buy them and continue to work great for the next few months. However, a year down the line and sometimes these gadgets start to show how poorly made they really are. This happened with my previous laptop, which is why I ended … Continue reading
My first memory of Palm was back when they were battling it out with Blackberry for title of best keyboard equipped smartphone with their line of Treo devices. They never quite got to the level of Blackberry. Soon after they were bought out by HP and released a more modern device with the Palm Pre, … Continue reading
The last time I looked at a myGEKOgear item, it was a dash cam. This time, it’s something completely different that’s more mechanical and something you probably didn’t know you needed. I’m talking about the myGEKOgear MagiClaw which is a versatile claw mount that allows you to go hands-free with a variety of devices. The … Continue reading
Last week, I received Sony’s latest flagship Android based smartphones, the Sony Xperia 1. I wrote up a little first impressions post about it since I hadn’t had enough time yet with the phone to make a full review. A week later, I think I’ve had enough time to give my two cents and most … Continue reading
Car mounts for smartphones are a necessity especially now that many states make it illegal to use or even have your smartphone in your hand while driving. While some of us can go without looking at our phones until we get to where we’re going, most of us can’t, whether it be for turn by … Continue reading

Cables are an important part of our lives considering most of us are still using them to charge up and sync our devices. While wireless charging is gaining ground, charging with a cable is still the norm. That’s why it’s critical that we have cables that won’t fail on us or fall apart like many … Continue reading
Last month, I took a look at the Nextbase 422GW Series 2 Dash Cam. While it’s a very good dash cam, it’s not the best Nextbase has to offer. That honor goes to the Nextbase 522GW Series 2 Dash Cam. While not that much different from the 422GW, the 522GW adds a very important feature … Continue reading
When it comes to Android smartphones, Sony isn’t really a household name here in the US. It’s not a brand I see many people rocking here as a phone which is a shame as Sony does put out some pretty decent hardware from time to time. Sony Xperia devices are a bit more popular in … Continue reading
It’s been a long while since I’ve looked at a stylus and for good reason. I just haven’t had a need for one in my day to day life. Most of the notes I take, I type and when I do need to scribble some notes on a photo or screenshot, I just use my … Continue reading
If you own a PlayStation Classic, you might wonder why you’d need a USB hub like the AUKEY 4-Port 3.0 USB Hub since you only need the two USB ports for the controllers. This is true if you only used the PlayStation Classic as Sony intended. However, if you decided to hack if using something … Continue reading
I remember the days when a vacuum cleaner was just a vacuum cleaner. There was nothing special about them other then the fact that their sole purpose was to suck up dirt. Then of course now we live in a world where little robot vacs are the norm and handheld units now have “smart” features. … Continue reading
Finding the perfect wireless earbuds can be a challenge, especially for Android users. Apple users have the fantastic Apple Airpods to fall on and while they do work for Android devices, not all the features work. I’d also not like to mix Apple and Android devices so I’m always on the lookout for wireless earbuds … Continue reading
Smartphones are getting better and more powerful each year but the battery tech isn’t keeping up with the power demands of many of these devices. While you’re supposed to get a days worth of use per charge with your smartphone, that’s usually not the case and most have to recharge several times a day due … Continue reading
