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 [...]
Thoughts On A Future Vision
Google has announced and made available a new Chromebook. What was once deemed a “cheap” computer system, albeit one that ran what is essentially a web browser, is now an expensive, high spec’d product. A beautiful one too. The Chromebook Pixel, so-called due to it’s pixel dense display (2560×1700 in a 12.85″ size correlates to [...]
Reviewing a mini iPad – The iPad Mini
Reviewing the iPad mini is a hard thing to do. For one, I have mentioned before, the interface for me on iOS has become tiring, although this is starting to feel like a poor excuse for me to try something new. Secondly, I madly loved using the Nexus 7 for five months. The size was [...]
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 [...]
Reviewing the iPhone 5
This morning, I woke up bright and early, quickly got dressed and headed downstairs. I sat on the sofa, watching TV, jumping out of my chair at every engine sound I heard. I was awaiting the delivery of my shiny new iPhone 5. I have spent two years in the company of the iPhone 4 [...]
Reviewing the Incase Campus backpack
About a month ago I bought the Unit Portables 01 bag. This had a nice utilitarian style, something that I felt conveyed me and my tastes. Within a week the first one had broken. Being a single strap satchel meant that the strain was on one buckle. One buckle made of plastic. This invariably led [...]
Retina MacBook Pro Impressions
As you are already aware, and for those that aren’t, I am a bit of an Apple fanboy. The computers in the family have always been a Macintosh, and while I’ve used and sadly owned a couple of generically coined PCs, I don’t believe that I could ever use something Windows based as my day-to-day machine. Back in 2005 I was [...]
The next iPhone
As with any Apple release there are a great many rumours about what the next iPhone will be. The most credible being that we’ll see something more incremental than radical. In terms of sheer looks the most prevalent being that it will be something along the lines of the iPhone 4 and 4S. While I [...]
Fully in the Nexus
By now you should have been able to comprehend that I am a technology lover. Someone who does everything he can to try out as many gadgets and as he possibly can, money and time permitting. Yesterday afternoon, whilst browsing the verge (my favourite tech site) I read an article that the Nexus 7 was [...]
