Nokia Lumia 520: A Phone Half Full
Over the past half decade I have taken pride in buying top-tier smartphones. I figured there was no point in hampering my experience of a platform by using sub-par internals. With iOS, Apple’s operating system, this was never really an issue, more or less the older devices perform adequately, and I merely wished to have [...]
Samsung Galaxy Note II: Review
A few weeks ago, I was challenged to partake in a week-long transition to Android. To see how I’d get on, to find out what the differences were with iOS and to see if it might make me think differently when I come to make my next upgrade. Accompanied with the test was a brand [...]
Testing A Softshell – The Jack Wolfskin Impulse Jacket
Jack Wolfskin, a worldwide, high quality German outdoor clothing and equipment company got in touch with Opinionated World a few weeks ago and asked us if we’d like to test out some of their kit. Since it’s usually me asking companies to throw products our way, I was pretty surprised to receive such a request [...]
Reviewing a mini iPad – The iPad Mini

Nexus 4 review – the best Android phone yet?

The display was an OLED, 3.7″ 800×480 pixel affair. Often criticised because it was pentile and lacked the full RGB dot [...]
The best high top Hiking boots – Vivobarefoot Off-Road Hi
I’ve spent a week now with Vivobarefoot’s high top hiking boots, the Off-Road Hi’s, walking, climbing and doing all the usual things I do for footwear reviews – and indeed on every adventure I go on! I mentioned in past reviews that I’ve never been a fan of high top boots because they restrict your [...]
Vivobarefoot Breatho Trail first impressions
I ordered my sixth pair of Vivobarefoot shoes a couple of weeks ago – the Breatho Trails. A pair that I was very happy to be receiving. I absolutely love the look of these shoes, especially in red – they look brilliant. I ordered these more for the looks and the idea that I’ll do [...]
The Featherweight Vivobarefoot Synth Hikers
A few weeks ago, I was sent a pair of the previously un-released Synth Hikers from Vivobarefoot and now, having worn them for over 60 miles, I’m ready to give you the lowdown. I actually specified a pair of the Breatho Trails because I wanted to test the style and image with everyday clothes, rather [...]
