The Razer Headphone Dongle Isn’t Worth It! (If you don’t have a Razer Phone)

Improving cabled headphone audio is kind of a big deal. Too many manufacturers include mediocre hardware in phones, or just outright remove headphone jacks. Razer makes a pretty big claim about their USB-C dongle for the Razer phone, but can it improve audio output on OTHER Android phones, tablets, and Windows PC’s?

Can Normal Video Save 360° Cameras? Insta360 One Hands On!

360 video hasn’t really caught on like I hoped it would, and I fear it’s in danger of becoming another link in a chain of failed consumer tech, like 3D TV’s.
