The Galaxy Nexus Reviewed: Why It’s Better Than The iPhone 4S


Posted by William Judd on 23 Nov 2011 / 0 Comment



There’s a new flagship smartphone in town – the Samsung Galaxy Nexus.

The Galaxy Nexus is the first phone to ship with the latest version of Google’s Android operating system, Ice Cream Sandwich. Behind the delicious name is a surprisingly potent OS that makes the previous version, Gingerbread, feel as obsolete as the first version of Android released in 2008. It’s as easy to use as iOS 5 and even more feature-filled. What makes this particular dessert so appealing? Let’s have a look!

SteelSeries QcK+ Gaming Surface Review


Posted by The Shogun on 14 Jun 2011 / 4 Comments



We’ve previously reviewed SteelSeries products and have been very impressed with them. Their reputation as one of the best gaming hardware manufacturers is known to gamers everywhere. When you think gamer tools, the first things that jump to mind are usual keyboards and mice. Whilst they’re undeniably crucial, many people forget the importance of a good gaming surface or mouse mat to play on. Without this, you’re simply not using the full potential of that expensive mouse you’ve just bought. SteelSeries have available an excellent range of professional gaming surfaces that range from small pads all the way up to the QcK+, their largest available surface.

Here’s what we thought of the SteelSeries QcK+ Gaming Surface.

Review: GelaSkins – Styling up your iPad to perfection


Posted by The Shogun on 10 Jun 2011 / 2 Comments



A whopping 300,000 iPads were sold on it’s first day of sale and in just under 2 years of being in existence, a staggering 25 million iPads have been sold to date. Therefore if you own an iPad, just how would you stand out from the crowd? Sure you could buy a case or a sleeve for the iPad but for anything of any real quality or value, you’re going to have to spend that little bit more out of your wallet. Not to mention the added bulk, weight and that you’re hiding away a beautifully engineered piece of gadgetry inside a plastic or leather case.

Well if you’re looking for a simple, cheap and beautiful option, we’d suggest you take a look at GelaSkins.

Audio-Technica ATH-EW9 Headphone Review


Posted by The Shogun on 05 Jun 2011 / 0 Comment



Audio-Technica is perhaps not what you’d immediately consider as a household name here in the western side of the world. Compared to the big players like Sony, Toshiba and Panasonic, you’d think they were a smaller and more niche manufacturer. That’s where you’d be wrong. In the big world of Japanese electronics, Audio-Technica are the market leaders for headphones and are ahead of familiar names such as Sony and JVC. Many of their products are aimed at the professional market with audiophile quality headphones and premium DJ equipment but in recent years Audio-Technica have entered the consumer audio market.

Waterfield Designs iPad Smart Case Review


Posted by The Shogun on 12 May 2011 / 0 Comment



SFbags are based in San Francisco and they design and manufacture their own brand of bags and cases right there in the city. One of their most unique selling points is the ability to custom create your product right to the finest detail whether it be the addition of a shoulder strap, design of the flap or even what style the trim should be. With the launch of the iPad 2, they’ve created a new version of their popular Smart Case. We’ve been great fans of SFbags, giving them a near perfect score in our last review of their SleeveCase for a 16″ notebook.

Here’s what we thought of the Smart Case.
