Following up on our earlier article on the Samsung S-View case, we now look at the highly touted, much promoted LED Flip case as well as the desktop wireless charger.
One gets a big tick of approval, the other one not so much.
Which one do we definitely recommend?
There is no denying it: the Galaxy S7 edge is a fantastic phone. It is a combination of the best of the S5 and S6 and the latest Marshmallow operating system.
It is quite an investment at well over AU$1000 and totally worth protecting, particularly as the phone is a slippery as a slimy eel. That’s not the best comparison as there is nothing slimy about it, just slippery....
So first up we will be looking at an official Samsung case in the familiar S View edition.
What do you do when your place is filled with gadgets, chargers and cables - like the DigitalReviews office?
You look for a charging station that can help eliminate some of the clutter.
Luckily MobileFun came to the party with the Charge Pit 6-Port Universal Charging Station.
In the past few years we have seen the rise and rise of Internet of Things (IoT). From a technical perspective, IoT are objects that can collect and exchange data based on electronics, software, sensors and network connectivity. TrackR Bravo is an IoT device that leverages crowdsourced GPS (via smart phones) to help the masses track down items that are misplaced, lost or stolen. DigitalReviews undertook a self-funded journey to see how well this execution works.
When an established Network Attached Storage company turn their hand to creating a SoHo router using the same basic principles and dedication, what can we expect?
With thanks to Synology, DigitalReviews get to review the Synology RT1900ac Router - a high-speed wireless router designed for homes and offices.
Having recently written about the original Gear S smartwatch, which was the ostentatious and very curvy SIM equipped computer on your wrist, we now go to the realm of the normal-sized smart timepieces with the Gear S2.
Our friends at MobileFun sent us the Classic version which is the slightly more expensive one which comes with leather straps and an indented rotating bezel.
This is the first smartwatch I actually care to wear all the time.
This is why.
The Nonda ZUS was an Indiegogo crowdfunding success, raising 2523% of the original campaign goal.
Just how truly smart is this little device compared to its claims?
The quest for the perfect case for my Nexus 6p continues.
Thanks to MobileZap , DigitalReviews get to play with the Spigen Rugged Armor Nexus 6P Tough Case.
First Impressions
I have to admit slipping a black case onto my silver Nexus 6p feels a bit incongruous. Those thoughts slip away when I started using the product.
The Spigen Rugged Armor Tough Case looks the good and feels great, with carbon fiber panels at the top and bottom of the case giving it a touch of subtle highlight.
As part of my "Welcome to Nexus 6p" kit from Mobilezap, a USB Type-C 3.1 Male to USB 3.0 Male Cable!
There are a few big players in the virtual reality field, Occulus Rift amongst others comes prominently to mind. There are a few other players in the field however, and some are going down the lo-tech path. VR is hardly a new idea, having been kicked around for ages in real life, and far longer in movies and TV. The high tech path is still an expensive proposition, but there are cheaper alternatives becoming available. With thanks to MobileZap, DigitalReviews got to try out the Archos Virtual Reality Glasses.
