D-Link AX3000 WiFi 6 PCIe Adapter review
Posted on 19-Jan-2021 11:47 Reviews, Wi-Fi, by M Freitas
Desktop computers are generally used in a fixed location - size and weight, the need of external keyboard, mouse and monitor(s) all decide where you can have those machines in your office or home. But sometimes access to an ethernet port throws your best layout plans in disarray and you might end up having to accept it will live in a less than optimal location.How can you add these to a wireless network?

It is almost Christmas and I am sure many of you are expecting to get some new entertainment device or another - perhaps as a gift to yourself. Be it a new gaming console or a new streaming device, the next thing to cross your mind would be "how can I get the best from my new devices?"
Huawei FreeBuds Pro review
Posted on 8-Dec-2020 09:53 Reviews, Consumer Electronics, by Stu
I have been fortunate to receive a pair of the new Huawei FreeBuds Pro earbuds. My normal travel, sitting at a computer, or just not wanting to hear what's going on in the house headphones have been Bose QC35II, for some time so it was good to have a new device for comparison.
MAD CATZ R.A.T 8+ ADV mouse review
Posted on 30-Nov-2020 17:27 Reviews, Consumer Electronics, by M Freitas
Gaming is a serious business and there are plenty of options out there for input devices - all sorts of keyboard, mouse and controller devices. What makes the MAD CATZ R.A.T 8+ ADV optical gaming mouse (R.A.T 8+ ADV from now on) so special in this context is the amount of customisation you can achieve with this device.

Google Nest WiFi review
Posted on 19-Oct-2020 14:59 Reviews, Broadband, by M Freitas
The avalanche of new smartphones, tablets, laptops and assorted "smart devices" (including but not limited to TVs, speakers, lights, fridge, coffee machine, heat pump, blinds, washing machines and the list can go on and on) in our homes require, pretty much all of them, Internet access. This is done mostly through wireless connections - after all who wants to spend time with ugly cables running around the house, not enough ports and poor management?

Dyson V11 Outsize review
Posted on 29-Jul-2020 14:03 Reviews, Consumer Electronics, by M Freitas
For many people, a vacuum cleaner is just something you buy without much care or planning. But when you stop and think you realise how important to your overall home health (and personal health) these devices can be. When you have a family member that can be prone to asthma attacks due to allergies, keeping your house clean is a must.
OPPO Enco Q1 review
Posted on 25-Jun-2020 14:29 Reviews, Consumer Electronics, by Dratsab
My first thought was "I don’t travel by plane much so probably don't have a need for them". Then I thought about it a little more and figured there's actually a reasonable number of scenarios where they would be useful. So, I said yes.
